Paris Hilton arrested for DUI in Mercedes McLaren SLR

Arrested Paris Hilton says just wanted a burger By Jill Serjeant
Reuters - 58 minutes ago

Celebrity Paris Hilton was arrested in Hollywood early on Thursday for suspected drunk driving, but she said the incident had been blown out of proportion and that she may have been speeding to get a late-night burger.

Hilton, 25, the heiress to the Hilton hotel dynasty known for her hard-partying lifestyle, was pulled over by police in Hollywood around 1 a.m. for driving erratically.

She told KIIS-FM radio in an interview on Thursday morning that she had been to a charity fund-raiser party after a long day shooting a music video and had just one margarita.

"I had one margarita (and) was starving because I had not eaten all day," she said. "Maybe I was speeding a little bit and I got pulled over. I was just really hungry and I wanted to have an In-N-Out Burger."

The star of reality show "The Simple Life," who had a surprise summer hit with her first pop single "Stars are Blind," said that as usual there were a lot of photographers around.

"I think they (the police) wanted to make a statement. They even said 'there are a lot of people watching. We don't want them to think we are giving you special treatment'," Hilton said.

Police said Hilton failed a sobriety test but she has not been charged with any offense. That decision will be made by the Los Angles County District Attorney in the next few days.

Hilton's publicist Elliot Mintz, who picked up his client from the police station, said Hilton was affected more than usual by the one drink she had because it was "one drink on an empty stomach after a full day's work."

"It's the absolute minimum amount of alcohol in your system that would justify an arrest," he told reporters.

The incident made national headlines on Thursday.

"Everything I do is blown out of proportion," said Hilton, not known for shying away from publicity. "It really hurts my feelings."

Mintz said Kimberly Stewart, the daughter of rocker Rod Stewart, was in Hilton's Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren when she was pulled over.

Hilton shot to fame for an amateur sex video that showed up on the Internet in 2003. Her party-going and complex love life have ensured that she has rarely been off the celebrity radar since.

Earlier this year, a judge ordered Hilton to stay away from a Los Angeles party planner who accused her of bombarding him with angry phone calls, shoving him and threatening his life.

So, was the point of this story to tell us about the Mercedes McLaren SLR? Otherwise, bor-r-ring.

The point is the SLR is a damned nice car to drive drunk and risk having an accident in. Typical of some overpaid and overly-appreciated Hollywood celebs is a disregard for posessions others would highly covet.

Christina Richi (sp?) from the movie "The Addams Family" used to come by our building in a new-ish 996. The car was scratched up, ran like poo, and had horrible curb rash on all four wheels.

But to her, it was just a paycheck.

Who cares what kind of car she was driving drunk in. When I drive drunk, I don't drive my beater car. I drive drunk in style!

What the hell is an In-N-Out burger? Is that slang for porn? Also, she hadn't eaten all day? Is that slang for hadn't eaten since August. She makes Courtney Cox look like Rosie O'Donnel

Yes. Billy Lane.

He just killed a guy on a moped via his truck. Guy is an A-1 @$$hole--already has a DUI that's waiting to go to trial.

If Mercedes was smart they would have certain criteria for who can buy an SLR. I'm certain Paris wouldn't qualify. I was thinking that Ferrari wouldn't sell her one of their supercars. It infuriates me when I see someone have a car like that and doesn't appreciate it for what it is and is capable of.

But money trumps all.

P.S. In and Out burgers are great. Best fast food burger out there. They are only in the west.
