you. Nevertheless, at the time of the writing of this article, the petition has 28,217 signatures.

A few days later, G4TV's Attack of the Show reported that someone launched a Keep Paris in Jail campaign, which for the record that has 79,500 signatures. And I just read that The Associated Press released the results of her trial... They cut her sentence in half and are putting her up in a cell block reserved for those with "special needs." That's right, she will be housed in a "special needs housing unit." I have scoured the Web in search of some kind of written procedure that might shed some light on the subject and explain why she gets put in a special-needs facility, as opposed to a regular cell block. But my search was in vain as the prison's website didn't even have an e-mail address.

Now, I have always been under the impression that the special-needs housing unit was reserved for those with some form of identifiable disability. I mean, I'm bedridden. I had no idea that being a celebrity was a disability. Does that mean that if I break California state law, I could be put in the same cell as Robert Downey Jr. or Tha Doggfather himself?

Almost everyone grew up watching Top Gun, and the first Mission Impossible movie was very well-made. He had the potential to go down in history as an American icon like Julia Roberts or Clint Eastwood. But he blew it, and he disappeared. Paris was famous for, well, as the phrase goes... for being famous. She's a whole different breed from the Brittany's and the Lindsay's. If you tear them down, they're able to come back with a new Hit Me Baby, One More Time or Mean Girls. Paris only has money, and people that want to watch her spend it.

However, having said that, I'm forced to ask myself a different question... Is she a genius behind the highlights and the Chihuahua? There are millions of heirs and heiresses squandering their lives away spending Daddy's money. The creators
