Over the past couple of weeks, she's partied with midgets and monkeys, been pelted with lipsticks and tissues in an Austrian shopping mall, and ended up in tears after someone insulted Paula Abdul at her birthday bash. So the less celebrity-savvy among us might have expected Paris Hilton to steer clear of headline-grabbing antics, just for a day or two. But, no: the hotel heiress is back in the news today, having been pulled over for allegedly speeding and driving without headlights during a late-night trip to the Virgin Megastore in West Hollywood.
Apparently, Paris didn't look happy when she was stopped - and, as you can see from our picture, she looked even less happy when her $200,000 Bentley was impounded. (Hell, everyone hates having their Bentley towed away, don't they?) What's more, this little incident could see her facing a three-month stint in jail. Why? Well, when the ever-vigilant LAPD pulled her over, they discovered her license was suspended - following a reckless driving incident last September. It turns out that Paris is currently on 36 months probation, on the condition that she "obey all laws." Uh-oh!
Still, Paris' long-suffering publicist Elliot Mintz, has offered a perfectly acceptable explanation for his client's latest indiscretion. Apparently, the Virgin Megastore car park is "brightly lit so she had not noticed that her headlights were not activated." And judging by Ms Hilton's day-glo orange face, we imagine everything appeared brightly lit that night...
