I wanted to comment on this mainly because part of my blog is to address issues such as this. But I in no way want to add to all the other attention it has received. THIS is the problem... the fact that this makes news. The fact that this girl no matter WHAT she has done is thrown to the lions like this. Yes, DUI is a very serious crime, but THAT should be the focus of the news reports. When the cameras are on her drama, then the drama is what takes focus and the drama actually appears glamorous to kids because it just looks like a movie. They forget that this is real and they treat it like it's a joke. A woman, sitting in the back seat of a police car sobbing is nothing to laugh at. Had she been sticking out her tongue, giving us the finger then yes, we would see that she is rubbing salt into the situation. But suddenly, the carnival that is Paris Hilton has come down for all the public to see. We should be horrified that such a carnival even existed in the first place and that one of our fellow human beings could get away with such a thing.
Bimbo, yes. But is she really? She has taught us to turn life into a cartoon when it really isn't.
Sadly, the circus has just begun. I hope that when she emerges on the other side of this, she who ring leads this annoying attention grabbing, distracting, crotch exposing garbage, will assist in it's demise.
