 | | Paris Hilton says her "life will be over" | | |  | Paris Hilton has told friends that "doing time" could ruin her career.
The Simple Life star faces up to 90 days in prison if found guilty of violating her DUI probation. Hilton was stopped by police in February for driving without her headlights on - and discovered by officers to be driving with a suspended license. Paris' spokesman Elliot Mintz said she wasn't aware her license had been suspended.
A source told Britain's More magazine: "Paris says if she goes to jail, even for just a day, her life will be over.
"She knows she'll lose a lot of work if she gets a reputation as someone who has done time. Her whole career is based on her image and maintaining a fan base - she has nothing else to rely on. She's petrified.
"She's the butt of quite a few jokes in Los Angeles these days and she hates it. She's been crying a lot, especially when she's been drinking, and is scared that her life is falling apart."
The source added: "She's missed two club appearances in the past couple of weeks. People in the industry are taking her less seriously and she doesn't feel like she's Hollywood's Golden Girl any more.
