Britney Spears Strips Off Underwear

Britney Spears Strips Off Underwear in Porn Shop; Shoplifts Wig

Shortly before 1 a.m. on November 18, Britney Spears entered the X-rated Hustler Store in West Hollywood.

Spears loaded up on naughty skivvies and headed to the fitting rooms. But store employees "told her they don't allow people to try on underwear," a source at the scene says. "She was really upset."

Adds the source: "She looked out of it. There was nothing going on behind her eyes."

At that point, Spears threw a fit, and took off her own underwear before trying on a pair of boyshorts (with "Barely Legal' stitched across the rear end) in the middle of the store while 15 other customers looked on.

An eyewitness tells Us, "The employees kept saying 'Don't change out here!' She's just like, 'Well, I couldn't take them in the fitting room!' It was like dealing with a child."

Spears' tantrum only continued. "The staff told her she had to pay, and she rolled her eyes, but paid with a credit card," the source tells Us. As payback, "on her way out, she went up to a mannequin, snatched the wig off the head, and stole it!"

"DHAN DHANA DHAN GOAL" REVIEW

Cast: John Abraham, Arshad Warsi, Bipasha Basu Direction: Vivek Agnihotri

Southall United Football Club is facing its deepest crisis ever.Bankrupt, with no stars, no coach, no sponsors, no takers, no spectators and most importantly no owner. After the city council sends an eviction notice, it's the last chance to save the ground, the club and their honor.Now, Southall United must win the Combined Counties Football League in their otherwise last season.

One man's dream takes the team on a remarkable journey in this football-themed drama.Shaan (Arshad Warsi) takes up the challenge to save the club from extinction. After a disesteemed ex-player, Tony Singh (Boman Irani) joins them as the coach, in spite of the being sniggered, and laughed at, he and Shaan, work to gather the worn out team. Its hard work as they approach their first game.Sunny Bhasin's (John Abraham) dream to play for England crashes after his club does not select him.

The reason is apparently not his game but the color of his skin. Sunny himself had always laughed at his own community and Southall United. Sunny and Shaan could not ever see eye to eye. Adding to their personal chaos is Shaan's cousin sister Rumana (Bipasha Basu) who is in love with Sunny.Tony manages to convince Sunny to play for Southall United. It takes a while before Shaan and the team warms up to Sunny. With Sunny joining Southall United the team gradually starts climbing the points tally.

The city council is worried.The only goal that the pragmatic Sunny has - is winning - with all of the material perks and fame that he can acquire. He is more interested in being noticed himself, than Southall United winning the cup.Johny Bakshi (Dalip Tahil) a commentator and a frontman of the council, plan to lure Sunny away from Southall United.

Sunny will need to sacrifice everything he believed in for something which he never believed. His love for Rumana, his relationship with his father and his life are at stake.Set within this is a contemporary story of the Asian community in UK told through the dynamic prism of professional sports.

Competitive football only provides the action-packed backdrop, as the story takes an intimate look at a cross-section of Indians, Pakistanis and other Asians living in England.

Kim Kardashian Talks Playboy Shoot


It’s one of the most-talked-about Playboy covers in recent memory. Kim Kardashian got naked for Hugh Hefner’s magazine, and everybody’s taking notice.

But the “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” starlet insists that she didn’t do it for the money or attention. She did it for her fellow women.
The starlet, who was spotted out shopping at trendy Intermix over the weekend, told press, “I did it because I’m not one of those stick-skinny girls you see. I felt like girls today need to see a normal body.”


She also blames her mother for her decision to bare all. “My mom actually pushed me to do it! I think she’s living vicariously through me a little bit.”

Kareena’s Romantic Desires


Kareena Kapoor’s dream is to do a romantic movie with Shah Rukh Khan. The actress can’t seem to stop gushing over the looks of the King Khan. “Very frankly I did the ‘Yeh mera dil’ song in ‘Don’ because of Shah Rukh. My ultimate wish is to do a full-on love story with him,” said the actress. Basking in the box office success of her latest movie ‘Jab We Met’, Kareena said, “When Farhan Akhtar offered me the song I wondered if making a guest appearance was right for me. However, the temptation of doing a song with Shah Rukh got the better of me.” Now that the song is a smash hit, Kareena is glad she did the song. “It got me tremendous notice.

Of all the movies in her kitty, Kareena is especially fond of ‘Omkara’. “It’s one film I’m truly proud of. I’m looking forward to working with Vishal Bharadwaj again. He’s one of those rare directors who knows how to tap into my potential, the actress said.

"STRANGERS" heroine Jimmy Refuses To Kiss


Jimmy refuses to kissNandana in STRANGERS

We have heard of heroines backing off and refusing to do kissing scenes in Bollywood.

But according to the source on the sets of "STRANGERS", surprisingly Jimmy Shergill backed out of the lip lock scene with Nandana Sen on the day of the shoot.

According to reports, it was supposed to a very emotional intimate moment between Jimmy and Nandana that culminates in the lip lock. Director Anand Rai had earlier explained to Jimmy about the scene which required the actors to kiss. Though the director was a bit skeptical whether Nandana would do it, he was apparently caught off guard when Jimmy refused to do it.

But director Anand Rai justifies his lead actor, "Though I had explained the scene, I understand that actor sometime are not comfortable doing intimate scenes on screen. When I set out to make Strangers, I was clear that my film was about relationship. Therefore a kissing scene with Nandana or the semi-nude scene of Sonali Kulkarni, though important for the emotional turmoil the character goes, I was always flexible for options and pointers from the star cast."

When Jimmy was asked for his reaction he clarified that, when he heard the initial narration from the director he was sure, it wasn't a must do sequence in the film and made it clear that he didn't want to do it. According to him even the director understood it and was cool about the whole issue.

Lip lock or no lip lock in STRANGERS seems like Jimmy Shergill joins the bandwagon of actors like Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan who do not kiss on screen!!

STRANGERS is slotted to release on December 7th 2007.

Bollywood star Dutt granted bail


Sanjay Dutt at a Mumbai court (file pic)

Dutt has a huge fan following in India
Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt, jailed for buying weapons from bombers who attacked Mumbai in 1993, has been granted bail by India's Supreme Court.

Dutt, who was sentenced to six years in jail by a court in July, has been in prison since 23 October.

The actor was cleared of conspiracy, but found guilty of illegally possessing a rifle and a pistol.

Dutt is the most high-profile of 100 people convicted in connection with the blasts which killed 257 people.

Dutt, 48, is one of Bollywood's most bankable stars, and found fame playing gangsters and anti-heroes.

His trial generated huge interest among Bollywood fans across India.

The son of a Hindu father and Muslim mother, Dutt said the weapons were necessary in order to defend his family during the Hindu-Muslim rioting of 1993 that followed the destruction by Hindu zealots of the Babri mosque in Ayodhya.

The Mumbai blasts were allegedly carried out by Mumbai's (Bombay's) Muslim-dominated underworld in retaliation for the riots, in which most of those killed were Muslims.

Jennifer Love Hewitt Is A Successful Actress


Jennifer Love Hewitt is a successful actress, singer and songwriter. She can be seen weekly on the CBS television series “Ghost Whisperer”. We came across this photo and had to share it - and some other equally gorgeous pictures that have captured the sexy side of this Hollywood celebrity.

Hewitt has dated Ross McCall for nearly two years. She and the Scottish actor have worked together on several projects, including an episode of Ghost Whisperer. Prior to that she was linked with John Mayer, Carson Daly and Will Friedle.

Britney Spears To Adopt Chinese Twins


POP shambles BRITNEY SPEARS is adopting Chinese twins:

The desperate singer has told friends she's in the final stages of talks with an adoption agency and plans to go ahead with the move very soon.

This latest twist in the Britney saga comes after the recent news that hubby KEVIN FEDERLINE has been given full custody of the children Sean Preston, two, and one-year-old Jayden James.

My snapper caught Britney, who still has access to the kids, enjoying a precious moment with her boys at her home in LA on Friday.

Friends feel that Britney has decided to adopt the two six-year-old tots from China in a frantic bid to fill the void left by losing her sons to K-Fed.

Britney's bad week got even worse when she was banned from driving with the kids in the car after she ran a red light in Hollywood.

And in another worrying move for the former Pop Princess, I can reveal she is splashing out £25,000 on her OWN funeral.

Apparently, Brit has forked out the cash because she fears her spiralling lifestyle may lead to an early grave.

The grim revelation has friends and family worried that Brit is growing increasingly depressed and that her unhealthy lifestyle is taking its toll.

But pals are baffled at the double whammy surprise.

A source close to Britney told me: "It doesn't seem that Britney has thought this through completely. Adoption and a funeral? The two don't exactly go hand-in-hand.

"Paying for a funeral is a sensible thing to do—but not when you're only 25!

"It's a case of too much, too soon with Britney.

"Not a week goes by without something strange happening to her now. She's doing herself no favours."

If Brit does go through with the adoption, she'll join the club of celeb mums who have done the same, including MADONNA and ANGELINA JOLIE.

The King Khan of Bollywood

Shahrukh Khan, the 'Bollywood Badshah' is a brand today. Mostly when he is signed on films, the directors would know that it would do well. This is the magic of the 'King Khan.' Shahrukh first came into the limelight as a soldier, Abhimanyu in a tele-serial 'Fauji.' This took the Indian television by storm.

Julia Roberts Slams Jolie’s Work and Thinks She is Whore-y


« Jake Gyllenhaal Proposes to Reese Witherspoon…and I Cry a Little Lindsay Lohan Wants to be Ugly! »

Another Angelina Jolie hater comes out of the closet.

Julia Roberts pretty much thinks her work in “A Mighty Heart” was total crap. Julia had some of her closest BFF’s over to watch the movie on DVD. I am sure they braided each others hair and played truth or dare afterward.

A reported “insider” just happened to mention to Star Magazine that Julia was super unimpressed with Angelina’s work in the film. She even voiced the fact that she could have done a better job than Jolie.

“I would rarely way this, but I think I could have done a better job with this film,’ Julia announced to her friends. And they loved her reaction,” says the source. “Angie isn’t exactly the most loved person in Hollywood.”

Julia Roberts also was one of the first to hear of Angelina’s flirting with Brad Pitt on the set of “Mr. and Mrs. Smith.” Her husband, Danny Moder, was a cameraman for the film and revealed that the entire filming team knew what Angelina was up to. According to the source Danny told Julia that Angelina was making a blatant “play” for Mr. Pitt. They also reportedly called her “Spider-Woman” due to the fact it was painfully obvious she was “spinning a web” to catch him.

Oooo, it’s like being in the inner circle of the popular kids in high school. Now someone just needs to bring a rampant case of gonorrhea or prom-trash can baby into the picture.

Dubai lucky for me, says John Abraham at 'Goal' premiere


Dubai, Actor John Abraham believes Dubai is a lucky place for his films to be launched.

"It is good to be back in Dubai. It is a lucky place for me to have my films launched. I was here last for the premiere of 'Taxi 9211' and it worked," he said at the premiere of UTV Motion Pictures' "Dhan Dhana Dhan Goal" here Wednesday evening.

He was accompanied by Bipasha Basu, who also stars in the film, and director Vivek Agnihotri on the red carpet at the Grand Cineplex here.

He said Dubai was an apt place to have the premiere of "Goal" as the film has a very South Asian look.

"The film is about racism. It is about South Asians. And Dubai is the place where the whole of South Asia - India, Pakistan and Bangladesh - meets," the actor said.

"Goal" revolves around Southall United Football Club, a struggling South Asian team in Britain, facing its deepest crisis yet - bankrupt, with no stars, no coach, no sponsors, no takers, no spectators and most importantly no owner.

The city council sends an eviction notice to the club after its 30-year lease gets over. Now, Southall United must win the Combined Counties Football League for the prize money that will save the club from losing its ground.

Shaan (Arshad Warsi) takes up the challenge to save the club from extinction. Tony Singh (Boman Irani), a disesteemed former player of the club, joins them as the coach in spite of being sniggered and laughed at. He and Shaan then work to gather the worn out team comprising Indian, Pakistani and Bangladeshi players.

Enter Sunny Bhasin (John Abraham), a brilliant striker who dreams of playing for England but is not selected for an English football club he has trained with throughout the season. The reason: his skin colour.

Sunny himself had always laughed at his own community and Southall United. Sunny and Shaan could not ever see eye to eye. Adding to their personal chaos is Shaan's cousin sister Rumana (Bipasha Basu) who is in love with Sunny.

Tony manages to convince Sunny to play for Southall United. It takes a while before Shaan and the team warms up to Sunny and then the club starts shining in the league.

Bipasha Basu urged the audience to watch the film with an open heart.

"My role in the film is not much. But it is a wonderful film. Watch it with an open heart. Please be kind to us," she said.

Director Vivek Agnihotri said that the film was a product of good teamwork.

"I had some wonderful persons working as a team with me. This is the result of that. I don't have much to say. Whatever I have to say, I have said it in my film" he said.

The evening saw a good gathering of Indian expatriates, as also local Emiratis and other fans of Indian cinema, trying to catch a glimpse of the Bollywood stars.

Both John Abraham and Bipasha Basu willingly obliged autograph-seeking fans even as young girls - and an old man - screamed: "John, I love you!"

John also threw a miniature football at the crowd, while Bipasha presented another to a young fan.

"Lagaan" (2001) saw Aamir Khan playing a cricketing hero. Earlier this year, film buffs across the world saw Shah Rukh Khan playing the role of a hockey coach in "Chak De India". Both films ended up as megahits.

Can John Abraham repeat the feat as a football striker? Well, he has got Dubai on his side.

Britney Spears Is a Sex Liar, Private Dicker

We've been on a bit of a Britney fast lately (no Spears posts for three whole days!), as it's always good to flush your system of anything deep-fried or drenched in butter in the days leading up to Thanksgiving. But like Paula Deen to a deep-fried butter ball, we just couldn't stay away. Not when there's Brit's teenage sex life to talk about, y'all! Plus, we can't help but be interested in a story that involves a guy named Reg. We blame our youthful obsession with Elton John. Us Weekly reports:


Britney Spears made a name for herself as a happy, wholesome pop star who was saving herself for marriage.

But lawyer Eric Ervin, who worked with Spears as a teenager, tells Us Weekly in its new cover story that the "virgin" image Spears portrayed was, in his words, a "PR blitz." In fact, Us reports in its new issue that Spears lost her virginity at 14 to boyfriend Reg Jones, and that she and Justin Timberlake were intimate from the beginning.

Something Spears also kept secret: Her family's tragic history.

Us has learned that Spears' paternal grandmother, Emma Jean Spears, in June 1966 committed suicide at age 31. Britney's grandmother, who suffered from depression, shot herself in the chest with a shotgun at the grave of her infant son who had died eight years earlier just three days after being born.

A local newspaper article obtained by Us reported at the time: "The shotgun had been pressed against the woman's chest and she apparently pulled the trigger with a toe of the right foot from which a shoe had been removed." The newspaper reported that Emma Jean had attempted suicide three times before.

Emma Jean Spears left behind four other children, including Britney's father, Jamie Spears, then an eighth grader. Two of Jamie Spears' brothers ended up with criminal records and homeless.

OK, the dead-grandmother and homeless-uncles bit is a little depressing, but it sort of explains a few things, no? Like maybe she picked up her fashion sense from her favorite hobo uncle. Or maybe her granny's suicide is the only thing keeping Brit from laying down some Louisiana justice on the paparazzi. And as for the sex thing, this proves that Britney is indeed a responsible person; she was having sex for nearly ten years before she had any babies. That takes some planning. Assuming she was putting it in the right hole.

So now we know that Britney liked dick young, but she also likes her dick private. Reports TMZ:

Britney Spears is on the offensive in her ongoing battle with Fed-Ex. We're told the popwreck wants to prove she's not the only one who screws up.

Sources tell TMZ Brit has hired a P.I. company to dig up dirt on her ex. One source says, during their marriage, Spears witnessed K-Fed smoking dope and drinking beer around the kids. Brit's camp hopes they can get the goods and turn the tables in the custody battle.

What's she hoping to dig up? That Kevin is secretly breeding children to star in his underground baby-fighting ring? Because at this point we don't think that Kev sipping a few Coors (or even slipping some into the baby bottles) is going to get Britney her kids back. Plus, we're kind of surprised she's even trying. Her interest in her kids is so slight, we'd expect Brit to hire a private dick to dig up dirt on her to present in court.

November 22nd, 2007 - Remembering Michael Hutchence!


AS rock band INXS bandmates paid tribute to their former frontman, Hollywood also recognized the 10th anniversary of Michael Hutchence’s death by announcing the production of a documentary about his rock’n'roll life.

Tentatively titled Elegantly Wasted after the INXS album released the same year Hutchence died, the feature-length documentary will be directed by David Leaf of The US vs. John Lennon fame and is due for release in late 2008.

Set to include interviews from friends and celebrity colleagues of the Aussie rocker - including U2 frontman Bono - the film will chronicle Hutchence’s rise to fame through to his final downfall in Sydney’s Double Bay hotel the Ritz Carlton.

The announcement came as three of Hutchence’s band members remembered the iconic singer in an emotional statement on their website yesterday.

“Like many I choose not to focus on the death of Michael and instead prefer to celebrate his wonderful life,” Jon Farriss wrote.

“I miss Michael every day, but I’m one of the lucky ones who shared time with a beautiful soul who was on this earth far too short a time.”

Keyboardist Andrew Farris added: “As Michael’s friend and song writing partner of many years there is so much I feel at this time. I do not have enough words to convey my appreciation for having knowing Michael … God bless you Hutch.”

While the INXS band members will mark today in a private manner, hundreds of Hutchence fans will gather at the North Ryde Memorial Gardens on Saturday at 3pm to pay tribute to the much missed Sydney star.

More than likely one of INXS’s most recognizable tunes, ‘Devil Inside‘

Bipasha voted sexiest Asian woman


London, Bollywood actress Bipasha Basu has been named the sexiest Asian woman by the British newspaper Eastern Eye.


On claiming the top spot for the second time after 2005, the Indian actress said: "I'm glad I got the crown back and will try and hold on to it this time.

"I think sexiness goes beyond looks and is a total package, from your personality to the way you carry yourself in your everyday life. I'm really grateful to all who voted for me because I work very hard," added the actress, who is looking forward to her next release "Dhan Dhana Dhan Goal".

Commenting on Bipasha's international appeal, Hamant Verma, editor of Eastern Eye and the founder of its Sexiest Asian Women in the World List, said: "Bipasha is a living embodiment of sexual attractiveness. Her acting ability, beauty and charm are capable of arousing great interest in her from the world's media."

Last year's winner, former Miss World and Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra, bagged the third position this year while actress Madhuri Dixit was voted the runner-up.

The other Bollywood actresses who made it to the top 10 positions are Aishwarya Rai, voted as the fourth sexiest Asian woman and Shilpa Shetty, who came in sixth followed by Katrina Kaif, Kareena Kapoor and Lara Dutta.

The public voted for those they thought were the sexiest Asian women from a list of 100 names published in the newspaper and on its website. The chairman of the judges' panel was Eastern Eye's show business editor Asjad Nazir.

Rose McGowen

Rose McGowen Became Actress For Rent Money Hollywood actress Rose McGowen only took up acting because she was too poor to pay for the deposit on an apartment.

The Grindhouse star, 34, admits she didn't harbour any desire to perform during her youth - but was forced to take a role in 1995 cult classic The Doom Generation because it paid enough for her to rent a new home.

She says, "I lost my lease on my apartment and I was going to have to go back to live with my dad. So I was in Los Angeles, staying with a friend who knew this lady who was a producer, and she offered me a part in a movie."

Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show Rocks LA


If you were lucky enough to be at the Kodak Theater in Los Angeles yesterday, odds are you got an eyeful. The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show was on fire, with the VS Angels, the Spice Girls, and Will.i.am rocking the stage.


Of course, the Victoria’s Secret Angels were looking as hot as ever! With everything from Karolina Kurkova’s insane peacock getup, to Alessandra Ambrosio’s funky cast-bronze-looking wings, the show was definitely fashion-forward.

Adriana Lima had the guys drooling with her classic white-feathered angel wings, complete with a sexy pink bra and panty combo.


The Spice Girls gave the audience a WWII-flavored treat, performing two of their songs in war-inspired outfits and hats, while Will.i.am took Kanye West’s place on the roster, due to the death of his mother.

Rani Mukharji's Special Bonding With Rakhi Sawant

Everyone who has seen Rani Mukherjee give a smashing performance as a saucy tart in Saawariya is commenting on the similarities between Rani's and Rakhi Sawant’s speech patterns and body language.


The decision to incorporate elements of Rakhi's personality into the character was taken on the day Rakhi, who's a huge fan of Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s work, was invited on the sets of Saawariya when Rani was shooting.

"That's when Sanjay Leela Bhansali heard Rakhi speak and decided to incorporate her cute and wonky way of speaking the English language into Rani's character," says a source very close to the film.

In fact, Rakhi who saw the ‘tribute’ at the film's premiere on Wednesday caught on immediately and was quite tickled by the way Rani had adopted Rakhi's speech patterns. Says Rakhi, "I wasn't aware of the similarities. I'm a big Sanjay Leela Bhansali fan and I adore Rani. Yes, he had invited me to the sets. He made me feel very special. When I watched him shoot with Rani I became an even bigger fan of Sanjayji. Even a walk-on part in his film is invaluable."

The couple was accompanied by Abhishek's mother, actress Jaya Bachchan and Samajwadi Party General Secretary Amar Singh.

The shrine is dedicated to Sufi saint Pir Amin and is a favorite of celebrities and politicians. Followers of the Dargah believe that any wish that you make at the shrine is always fulfilled. Since women are not allowed inside the sanctum sanctorum, only Abhishek went inside while Aishwarya offered prayers at the entrance.

Clad in a white kurta payjama and wearing a skull cap, Abhishekh carried flowers on his head to the dargah while Aishwarya, who was wearing a golden color sari and had covered her head with its border, stood in respect.

Hundreds of people gathered at the shrine, which was under tight security, when word about the Bachchan’s visit spread. The couple was expected to arrive at the shrine located around 400 km from Hyderabad at 7:30 AM but reached there by helicopter at 9 AM.

"I don't really read anything on the Internet except my AOL mail. I don't like people who sit on computers all day long and write about people they don't know anything about."---Hilton quoted to Cnn.com, May 5, 2005.

"I don't want to be known as the granddaughter of the Hiltons. I want to be known as Paris."---Hilton AskMen.com

"I have always had a voice and always known I could sing, but I was too shy to let it come out. ... When I finally let go and did it, I realized it is what I am most talented at and what I love to do the most."---Paris Hilton, whose first single, "Stars Are Blind," was released summer 2006. People, May 2006.

"I think people like me because I am very real myself and I lead an exciting life. There is no one like me. I am unique."---Paris Hilton, to Reuters, April 2006.

"Since the show came out, I can't really have fun anymore because people (are) coming up every minute and are like, 'Oh, can I have a picture?'"---Paris Hilton People March 23, 2004

"Walmart, what's that, do they like, make walls there"---Hilton on "The Simple Life" December 2, 2003

''My dad and mom always tell me to be humble and treat people like they want to be treated, even if they're being mean. If you're nice to them, they feel bad for having said something bad about you.''---Hilton EntertainmentWeekly December 5, 2003

In June 2007 British reggae band UB40 started legal action against Hilton and Warner Chappell Music for plagiarism due to similarities between the song "Stars Are Blind" and their 1990 song "Kingston Town".

In March 2007, the Los Angeles City's Attorney's Office claimed that Hilton violated the terms of her DUI probation, asking for 45 days in jail. According to the prosecutors' motion, Hilton violated at least three conditions of her probation; she was pulled over driving at 70 mph without her headlights on in a 35 mph zone, she was found driving with a suspended license, and she violated the terms of her probation by failing to enroll in a court-ordered alcohol education program within 21 days of her January probation.

It's not about the fame, really," says Hilton. "Years from now, I would just want people to say, 'She was young. She was a crazy girl for a while or whatever, but then she married and had a great big family. She was good to people and did a lot for the world. And that she was a nice person."---Hilton quoted in Movieline's Hollywood Life June 2004

On May 4, 2007 Hilton was sentenced to 45 days in jail for violating her probation, and was required to begin her jail term June 5, 2007 or risk a doubling of her sentence. On June 3, 2007, after attending the 2007 MTV Movie Awards, Hilton checked herself into an all female jail in Lynwood, California. Hilton was scheduled to serve only 23 days of her 45 day sentence pending good behavior.

On June 7, 2007 Hilton was outfitted with a ankle monitoring bracelet and released from jail to serve 40 days of house arrest due to unspecified medical reasons.

On the morning of June 8, 2007, Los Angeles City Attorney Rocky Delgadillo and Judge Michael Sauer ordered Hilton back to court. She was sent back to jail to serve the remainder of her sentence, and was taken out of the courtroom crying and screaming.

Paris Hilton was arrested in Hollywood early September 7, 2006 on suspicion of drunk driving. She was later charged with two misdemeanors - driving under the influence and driving with a blood-alcohol level of .08 or higher; She pled no contest to a alcohol-related reckless driving charge.
