Letterman on Paris

Oh Dave Letterman is having great fun with Paris Hilton being in jail. By chance he had Nicole Richie on the show two nights ago, and as he asked her about Paris being in jail, he just couldn’t help himself and starts giggling and smiling. And then when he asks her whether she might join Paris in jail, and she says yes (she has drug charges to fight) he starts almost cracking up again, and Richie actually goes “I don’t know why me and Paris being in jail is so amusing” which fo course made it worse.

Last night a comedian joked that Paris isn’t eating in jail because she is “very picky about what she puts in her mouth”, which was a cheap but hilarious shot.

She has also made the Top Ten lists three times this week with Top Ten Ways Paris Hilton Is Preparing For Jail, Top Ten Things Paris Hilton Heard Today In Prison, and Top Ten Signs Paris Hilton Isn’t Doing Well In Prison.

My favourites from the three lists, in order are:

2 Telling herself, “Heck, 45 days? That’s not even a month”

3 “I’m in here for illegally downloading video of you off the Internet”

10 Suffering from insomnia because she’s not used to sleeping in the same bed every night

I wonder which New Zealander, if they were so dumb they end up imprisoned for not reading their own court orders, would make for the best comedy?
