After reports surfaced that Paris Hilton had been arrested in Los Angeles on an alleged drunk driving charge early Thursday morning, she called into Ryan Seacrest's morning show on LA's KIIS-FM to give her side of the story -- and much of it contradicts what the Los Angeles Police Department is saying.
During the interview, Seacrest asked Hilton, who was downplaying the seriousness of the incident, "It looks as if you were pulled over and arrested, but what you're saying is they talked to you at the police department and then let you go." Hilton responded, "Yeah. They were so nice. Everyone was really nice there."
"Just to be clear, there is no DUI charge for Paris Hilton?," Seacrest continued. "That's the bottom line -- no charge?" Hilton's response? "Yeah. They were really nice."
POLL However, Officer Martha Garcia of the LAPD confirms to TeenPeople.com that Paris was arrested and charged with a DUI, and detained for two and a half hours.
"Ms. Hilton was arrested and charged with a DUI around 12:30 A.M. and released on her own recognizance at 3 A.M," she said. That directly contradicts what Hilton told Seacrest: "I was in there fifteen minutes and out."
There were even more inconsistencies in Hilton's attempt to set the record straight, including her reasoning for being pulled over in the first place. She blames that on being exhausted, starving and in a hurry.
Hilton told Seacrest that she had just come from having dinner with her sister, Nicky, and her girlfriends before appearing at a charity event. However, she went on to say that she was pulled over because she may have been speeding a bit to get to In-N-Out burger "because I have not ate [sic] all day." At press time, Hilton's rep, Elliot Mintz, was unavailable for comment on the inconsistencies.
"There were a lot of paparazzi around [when I was pulled over], so I think [the police] were trying to make a statement," Hilton told Seacrest (those same photographers got pictures of Hilton in handcuffs after the arrest). Still, says Hilton, "Everything I do is blown out of proportion. It really hurts my feelings."
"I was just trying to go Vote! And get an In-an-Out something. And I am taking sleep medication - and that wasn't booze they served me no matter what those three waitresses said!"
Misdemeanor DUI?
Must be something like you are not completely pregnant......
Comparing Paris Hilton to a Kennedy. That's low.
You should apologize to Paris immediately.
Yes, but did she make any anti-black, anti-semitic, anti-christian or anti-anything remarks?
Cause that is what I really want to know.
Oh yeah, did she sleep with the arresting officer?
"I am deeply, deeply, and profoundly sorry. I disgraced myself and my family. I offended the Jewish people, and I ask for their mercy and forgiveness. I am an alcoholic, and have struggled with it for years. I ask for your prayers towards my recovery."
"NOT good enough Mel! NOT GOOD E-N-O-U-G-H! You got that! I hate you! You...jerk!"
"I, like, didn't even get charged, and I didn't do ANYTHING, ummm K?"
"Yeah Paris! You go honey! Air kisses for you!"
Yes, I believe she is against Astro-turf carpet in the bed of an El Camino pickup.
She says it is rough on her knees........
This reminds me of a Steve Martin recording back in the late 70's. He said:
"I won't dare smoke marijuana in California now man. I mean, I hear you can get a ticket for that."
California Judge: What are the charges against this person?
LEO Officer: Your Honor, he hijacked an SUV, shot the woman driver, butchered her three kids then ran over four people at a crosswalk.
Judge: Well, we will make an example of you, Mr. bad guy. You are sentenced to spend a weekend doing community service.
Sadly, the other 49 states are no better.
This was all over both the radio and TV news yesterday. WHY????? Who gives a sh*t???
This girl is as dumb as a rock.
Now THAT's insulting to rocks!
I'll bet the nit wit was yapping away on her cell phone. Which distracted her, made her look erratic to the police who then pulled her over. Without the cell phone she would have gotten home (or to in n out burger) without the DUI
So many possible jokes for that line and yet so little bandwith.
Seriously though, shes right. Everything she does is inflated and blown out of proportion, by her own hand, its her marketing tool.
Whether she has feelings that or hurt or not...who cares.
Did she sleep with the arresting officer, you ask ?
No - - - not yet at least .
Oh! He must have just moved to town.
Yuck. I'd hope he wouldn't touch her.
I'm no fan of Hilton, but I don't imagine she weighs as much as an average american. It is possible that she could register .08, which until recently wasn't even legally impaired, if she drank 1 margarita on an empty stomach. (Does she ever eat?) Yet why was she charged and not "Patches"?
I don't get the attraction some guys have towards this woman. To me, she's unappealing and white trash. There's tens of thousands of women out there much more attractive and intelligent than Paris is.
