Paris Hilton was the butt of jokes at the 2007 MTV Movie Awards which she attended just before reporting 2 days early to start her jail sentence. I don’t know about you but I must say I did feel a little sorry for Paris Hilton at this point. She looked like she was about to cry but fought to keep smiling. She must know that she would be a target by turning up.

Paris Hilton reported for jail on Sunday at 11.30pm – 2 days earlier than scheduled. She has a jail cell all to herself because of her celebrity status and so far has not interacted with other inmates. It’s 12×8 feet with a bunk bed, a toilet and wash basin. There are two windows – a little one in the door, and one on the wall that overlooks buildings.

Paris Hilton had attended the 2007 MTV Movie Awards just hours earlier where she sat and smiled stoically while the host made her the butt of jokes. Hilton’s lawyer, Richard Hutton said that reporting to jail earlier was Hilton’s idea as she did not want a media circus made out of the event and just wanted to start her sentence quietly. She will get 1 hour a day to be out of her cell to shower, watch TV and talk on the phone.

So far, Paris Hilton has been the model citizen – how she is referred to – gracious and polite. You can visit Paris Hilton aka inmate no. 9818783 during regular visiting hours Saturday and Sunday from 8:30 AM – 3:30 PM and then from 5:30 PM – 7:30 PM. But if you don’t care enough to actually visit her in person, you can send her mail at 11705 S. Alameda St., Lynwood, CA 90262.

Paris Hilton broke her long time silence on her upcoming jail term at the 2007 MTV Movie Awards. Seen at various clubs cramming in as many parties as she can before reporting at Lynwood facility by midnight on Tuesday to serve her 23 days in jail for driving with a suspended license, Paris Hilton said she loved the movie awards, “It’s fun and I wanted to do something nice before I went off.”

“I’m scared, but I’m being strong and I’m ready to face my sentence. And I hope that this can be an example to other young people in the decisions they make and use it as something positive. These past couple of weeks have been a lot of time for self-reflecting on my life and realizing what’s most important.” she said.

Meanwhile, Paris Hilton has been officially dropped by her record label for poor sales of her record. They invested $250,000 for her Stars Are Blind video which reached number 18 in the U.S charts. Her worldwide promotional tour brought in less that half a million record sales. Hilton’s second single Nothing In This World barely registered on the charts, reaching number 89 on the Billboard Hot 100 Pop Charts and soon vanished.

A representative for Warner Brothers said, “We are not expecting any new Paris Hilton material in the foreseeable future.” Not that Paris Hilton needs the royalty payments.

Simon Cowell made his television debut way before American Idol or its original British parent Pop Idol. Simon appeared as a contestant on an international game show called Sale Of The Century in 1989, where his goal was to win a chance to buy a Fiat Uno at a heavy discount with the points scored from answering questions, however he only managed to win kitchen utensils. Strange, the uncanny resemblance he bore to Hugh Grant. See the youtube video.
