Doctors were summoned to Paris' cell after she appeared "weak and lethargic" and was found to have dropped close to 10 pounds since being admitted back into the Lynwood jail facility.

And insider told the paper, "After she was transferred back, Paris refused to eat.

"Staff became worried as she seems very thin with her bones poking out. She was also very weak and lethargic.

"They threatened to put her on an intravenous drip to rehydrate her and give her some nourishment unless she started eating.

"She has since managed to get a little food down, but doctors are closely monitoring her."

To make matter worse, the insider added, "Paris looks very pale. She is not allowed to wear make-up and her hair is matted and frizzy from washing it with soap as there's no shampoo."

I do find one bright side to this. With those extra 10-pounds gone, it will be that much easier for Paris to pour herself into skimpier clothing after this ordeal is done and over with. I'm sure she's gotta love that.
