PARIS HILTON TO CASH IN ON JAIL STINT

After several weeks of donning conservative hemlines, demure colors and clutching holy bibles in lieu of designer handbags in a futile attempt to evade a jail sentence, news surfaced today that shows Paris Hilton may be ready to accept her fate. A source close to the fallen heiress tells the New York Daily News that the future blond jailbird is going to keep a diary during her 23-days behind bars at the Los Angeles Century Regional Detention Center to be published after her release later this year.

News of a potential book deal had been swirling around the gossip mill for several weeks but the unnamed source is doing much to wet our appetite. "Paris' prison diary will make a more dramatic read than Martha Stewart's. If she can make it believable, and not exaggerate too much, she might expect to make a million dollars out of it."

You may be asking yourself, how can 23 days of 23-hour confinement in a small cell with just an hour set aside for showers, phone calls and exercise yield enough material to pen an entire memoir? But you must remember who we're dealing with here - the person who titled her own sex-tape "One Night in Paris", originally leaked to damage her character, and reportedly made millions.

This won't be Paris' first foray into the world of literature. In 2005 she "wrote" a book titled "Confessions of an Heiress." Yeah! All on her own too - using every last precious moment between sun tanning sessions and designer dress fittings to clack away at her typewriter. Right! In any case, who could forget her itemized list of instructions on how to be an heiress? Choice advice included, "Be born into the right family", "Never wake up before ten; never go to bed before three", and our personal favorite, "If you're happy, wear pink" ?
