Larry King Interviews Paris Hilton

Paris Hilton gave her first post-jail interview to CNN’s Larry King and she called her stay in prison as ‘traumatic experience’ of her life.

Newly released from jail Paris Hilton was invited to the show to talk about her stay in jail, about her feeling and emotions, about what she learned from that unhappy period of her life. Her representative said that CNN didn’t pay her for the interview.

Paris Hilton seemed to be a different person than the one we knew before the jail time.

"I feel like God does make everything happen for a reason," she said. "And it gave me, you know, a time-out in life just to really find out what is important and what I want to do, figure out who I am."

Talking about her party-loving nature, she said she’s a social person, she loves music, dancing and having fun, but now she’s a grown up and is not going to parties as meaning of her life.

But parties are not the only side of her life. Paris mentioned that most of people are talking about the parties, but she is a business person on the other hand. She mentioned the movies she shot, the successful reality show, the album she recorded and the book she wrote. She said, she doesn’t take money from her parents, she spend what she earn.

She talked about the judge’s decision to jail her. That was very unexpected for her, because her lawyer had told it’s not a very serious crime to be sentenced. But she got 23 days to stay in prison and she was shocked. She didn’t use drugs and didn’t hurt anybody, so she didn’t think drunk driving is a huge crime.

The positive thing is that she decided never to drink again and drive, she took her lesson about drunk driving is bad. Besides, she’ made a decision to involve in charity especially for children.

Paris Hilton was very upset she couldn’t hug her dad on the Father’s Day, she was missing her parents feeling very lonely in the jail cell. She was happy for her early release, but the happiness didn’t last long. She was taken back to jail after a few days under home arrest.

Paris uncovered the well known and at the same time unknown ‘medical conditions’ that made Sheriff release her early: she was under panic attacks in the cell and she had claustrophobia.

When she was back to jail letters from her fans helped her fight claustrophobia. Everyone including US soldiers in Iraq were writing supporting letters to Hilton and those letters helped he survive. All of them were encouraging and positive, some of them even made her cry.

Talking about jail food Paris said it was ‘horrible’, it was ‘the most humiliating experience of my life’. She also told about her nightmares, in which someone entered her cell and hurt her.

So the main decision made from the stay in jail is that Paris Hilton is going to become a brand new person, no more parties, no more drunk driving. She’s going to be a serious person, she even talked about marriage and kids. "When I have a daughter I have a lot of good advice for her," she said. by Ruzan Harutyunyan for HULIQ.com

While I don't condone Paris Hilton being made an 'example of', it does highlight the issue that many young people do not see drink driving as a serious offense.

My best friend was killed by a drunk driving teenage girl 16 years ago - so I know that fun and games (we were all at a party together) can quickly turn to tragedy.

Drink driving is a serious issue and everyone (not just teenagers) need to respect that.
