Paris Hilton has a very famous home move, ‘1 Night in Paris’ but now that she is soon to be off to jail Paris was spending a little quality time at her local Blockbuster store in LA, slurping an ice cream, and picked a DVD called Innocent to take home. So - what is the plot? Innocent is a movie about a teenager struggling to come to terms with his sexuality.
That led the Bizarre column at the UK Sun to speculate that “maybe Paris is preparing to bat for the other side when she is banged up in the all-girls jail with a load of butch lesbians.”
This is quite a change from some of the material Paris has been looking to sink her teeth into earlier. The socialite has been spotted with self help books, and Hilton picked up a copy of the Bible and “The Power of Now”, a book by empowerment guru Eckhart Tolle at a Hollywood bookstore. Paris has also reportedly turned to Buddhism to help her deal with the pressures of being locked up.
Hilton has been ordered to report to the Century Regional Detention Facility in Lynwood, California on June 5 for violating probation on her DUI.

Ex-lovers James Blunt and Petra Nemcova are struggling to avoid each other at the Cannes Film Festival - because they keep getting invited to the same parties. Blunt and Nemcova split in February after a nine month romance and the You’re Beautiful singer has since been linked to a string of women.
When Blunt arrived at jeweler De Grisogono’s party at the Hotel Eden Roc on Tuesday, he was distressed to hear the Czech model was already at the venue and refused to be in the same room as her.
British newspaper The Sun reports Nemcova was also frustrated to hear of her ex’s presence, saying, “Don’t even talk to me about James. I just want to enjoy myself tonight.”

Hotel Heiress Paris Hilton has decided to turn to Buddhism in another lame attempt to avoid going to jail.
The troubled socialite - who has been sentenced to 23 days in jail (reduced from 45) for driving with a suspended license - was seen in Hollywood’s Bodhi Tree bookstore picking up a spiritual tome.
Earlier this week, Paris was spotted clutching the Bible and a self-help manual.
Lawyers for Hilton have told her she needs to “live like a nun” if she has any chance of evading jail.
Paris has told friends she is quitting alcohol and partying and has replaced her skimpy outfits with a new demure look.
She also recently made a public show of playing the loyal daughter by visiting her father Rick in hospital with a huge get well soon card.
A friend of the star said: “Paris’ attorneys have insisted she live like a nun. She has been strictly advised to stop acting like a Hollywood brat and appear more humble as they battle to keep her out of jail.
“They have ordered her to show a judge she has some humility and social responsibility if she is going to have her sentence reduced on appeal. That means no booze, no parading round in skimpy outfits, no partying. She’s got to stick with her family and take on a healthier regime.”
Paris is due to begin her sentence at California’s female-only Century Regional Detention Centre in Lynwood on June 5.

Supermodel Helena Christensen feels sorry for catwalk pal Kate Moss and is glad she doesn’t have to put with such invasive media attention.
The Danish beauty is delighted she is not constantly scrutinised in the newspapers - and doesn’t know how Moss puts up with it all.
She tells Closer magazine, “I’m so grateful I don’t live like that. I’d end up smacking the camera back in the paparazzi’s faces!”

Heidi Klum calls her breasts Hans and Franz. The 33-year-old supermodel says she gave her famous assets the stereotypically German names in homage to her homeland.
She said: “They’ve been an ongoing joke for, like, 12 years. It started because I was from Germany, and people always make fun of ze Germans, yah? “So when I began modelling I used to say, ‘These are German breasts, one is called Hans and one is called Franz.’ ”
Mother-of-three Heidi, who is married to singer Seal, has also insisted she will never starve herself to become a size zero.
She said: “I have always been too round to do fashion shows. I don’t look weird enough for them to want me for the catwalk that’s fine.
“The other girls are always much taller and skinnier, so it just isn’t my thing. I stick to what I’m good at and have never been prepared to starve myself to death and do crazy stuff just to be like a thin rail and fit into their clothes.”
Heidi has two sons, Henry and Johan, with Seal, and a daughter, Leni, from a relationship with Renault Formula One boss Flavio Briatore.

Former supermodel TYRA BANKS credits her sudden popularity with younger men to her new curvy figure. The retired catwalk star and talk show host insists she’s been inundated with attention from younger men ever since she gained a more voluptuous figure. The 33-year-old star of The Tyra Banks Show explains, “Twenty-three-year-old guys ask me out all the time. Some of them are even celebrities who come on to my show. One guy even went for my muffin top (midsection fat). “I was like, ‘You’re 10 years younger than me. You need to date Hilary Duff. Don’t date me. I have a roll around my middle.” However, she insists she is now less popular with men her age, adding, “I make a good living, so men my age get a little intimidated.”

The Czech-born supermodel is eight months pregnant by Italian boyfriend Gregorio Marsiaj, and doesn’t intend to return to the catwalk after giving birth.
She said: “I don’t have any modelling work lined up after the birth. I’ve gained 25 lb during my pregnancy and I love being fat. I’m hoping to have a natural birth in France and after that, who knows? I enjoy making films and have directed two short movies.”
Eva, 34, shot to fame in the famous ‘Hello Boys’ Wonder Bra advert in 1994.
She has made no secret of her desire to move from modelling into the world of film, previously saying: “Ever since I was a very little girl, I’ve dreamed of acting. You can’t be a model at age 60, but you certainly can be an actress. So I’d like to be in that profession.”
Last week, Eva announced she was expecting a baby boy.
The catwalk beauty said: “We are having a boy! I am so excited. I cannot wait for motherhood.”

Kid Rock decided to flee a restaurant rather than come face-to-face with ex-wife Pamela Anderson at the Cannes Film Festival. The rocker had been sharing a meal at swanky eatery Baoli with his new beau May Andersen, Brit singer James Blunt and Swedish model Victoria Silvstedt when the former Baywatch babe made a surprise appearance.
A witness told New York Daily News: ‘All of a sudden Kid is like “Let’s go, let’s go!” He grabs May and pulls her out, and they leave right away.’
Apparently James Blunt was in the loo at the time and non-the-wiser about Kid Rock’s Houdini act, but he hooked up with Kid Rock later at the VIP Room where they enjoyed a steamy strip show.
Pammy and Kid Rock divorced three months ago after just six months of marriage. The split seemed amicable, with the couple going to great lengths to leave one other’s assets untouched.
But now it looks like Kid Rock is going to even greater lengths to avoid the 39-year-old mother-of-two, who is in Cannes to promote her new film Blonde And Blonder.
