So people like you and me who don't follow celebrity gossip are finally thrilled that a judge has locked up Paris Hilton. But I'm not going topile on someone who's as deep as a puddle. I'm here to say get ready, because when she figures out how to open the exit door she will be a bigger celebrity than ever. If anything we'll have to endure her even more.
The only thing that fascinates our celebrity-obsessed culture more than acelebrity is a celebrity behaving badly. And in the United States today -- a country with citizens dying in an unpopular war, troubled public schools,outsourced blue- and white-collar jobs and an upcoming Boomer retirement glut that few people are prepared for -- nothing gets more media and public attention than a troublemaking celebrity! How many trust-fund princesses have been to jail? Paris is a G now!
Expect her newfound fascination with God and desire to better the world to last as long as the next Middle East ceasefire. Or until her next DUI.
