Paris Hilton has been caught alledgedly carrying cannabis in her handbag. The 25-year-old socialite attended a fashion party in Milan and was pictured with a transparent plastic bag of what appeared to be skunk, a powerful form of marijuana, as she opened her handbag.
A witness said: “Paris had her bag open for quite a while as she applied lip gloss. There were a few shocked faces around her but she carried on chatting away.”
The hotel heiress was wearing two watches on her left wrist as she applied lip gloss but was sporting just one time piece as she posed for photographers at the bash.
Last month, Paris was charged with drunk driving after police stopped her as she speeded to get a burger after a charity event.
The ‘House of Wax’ star and part-time model insists she only drank one cocktail but had been driving erratically as she hadn’t eaten all day. She is due in court in December.
Last week, Paris was involved in a catfight with Shanna Moakler, the ex-wife of Blink 182 drummer Travis Barker.
Paris Hilton had recently been seen kissing Travis and a furious Shanna allegedly punched her in the jaw after seeing her on a night out.

From the catwalk to the living room, the latest fashion trend has become a weighty debate: Have models become dangerously thin?
Some have even voiced concerns that super-skinny models may negatively influence young girls to develop eating disorders.
Take a few statistics into consideration: The average runway model is a size two to a size four, while the average American woman is a size 14. Models are typically five-feet-ten and above, and weigh in around 120 pounds. While the weight debate continues, fashion show organizers in Spain recently declared that ultra-thin models would be banned from their runways.
At the launch of Victoria’s Secret’s “Very Sexy” make-up line, top model Gisele Bundchen spoke out on the controversy.
“I don’t find it sexy at all being a stick,” she tells.
While Gisele is famous for her curves, she says being slender is natural for her.
“At 16, no matter what, I couldn’t put a pound on,” she says.
Czech model Karolina Kurkova, also at the Victoria’s Secret launch, says that while some take it too far, it’s hard to tell who’s naturally thin and who might have an unhealthy obsession with their weight.
“I think the trend is very skinny,” she says. “Some people take it to extremes, but it’s so hard – it’s really hard to judge that.”
