Unless you’ve been hiding under a rock or haven’t had access to any news source, you have by now heard that Paris Hilton was released from jail then forcibly sent back to serve the remainder of her 45-day sentence.
So aside from the media circus, the public display of tears and police escorts and the obsession with all things celebrity, let’s not forget the reasons why Paris was sentenced in the first place. Hilton was arrested in January on an alcohol-related charge of reckless driving. In the next two months, police stopped her twice while she was driving, a violation of parole conditions.
Regardless of her celebrity status, serving time is meant to ensure that such reckless behavior is not tolerated and to make our roads safer. So before you bemoan the injustice of her sentence, look no further than the other side of the world where Taiwan singer Shino Lin killed a 41-year old nurse, the mother of an 8-year old boy, while driving home drunk. Shino’s car collided with a motorcycle, which was being used by the victim who died on the way to the hospital.
Hopefully Paris learns her lesson rather than view her time in jail as an inconvenience to her socialite schedule. No matter how farcical this situation has become, no one wants to see anyone die from such irresponsible behavior. So instead of crying a river for spending a maximum 45 days at a low security prison, Paris should be grateful that her actions didn’t result in anything worse like involuntary manslaughter on the highways of LaLa Land.

Move over Hollywood. The star-studded, red-carpet premiere was once the almost exclusive property of Tinseltown. But now Tokyo is grabbing the limelight.
The fifth Harry Potter film, “The Order of the Phoenix,” will be out in Japan ahead of other markets, with Warner Bros. officials confirming that Daniel Radcliffe and other key castmembers will fly in to Tokyo when it makes its debut here June 28 — ahead of the glitzy July 3 event scheduled for London.
“Spider-Man 3″ got the trend off the ground with a spectacular launch in Tokyo on April 16, while the third installment of the “Pirates of the Caribbean” franchise — “At World’s End” — made its Asian splash here May 23.
“Japan has always been the biggest territory outside North America, and the final boxoffice figures in Japan have sometimes outgrossed the U.S. take,” said Noriyuki Sano, head of the publicity division at Sony Pictures Entertainment Japan.

Lisa Ling, correspondent for the Oprah Winfrey Show and National Geographic Channel, married Chicago-based doctor Paul Song on Saturday evening in Los Angeles.
The bride walked down the aisle in a stunning, bright red Vivienne Tam dress in front of 550 family and friends including her journalism mentor Connie Chung and actresses Kelly Hu and Diane Farr.
Even preparing for the Asian-themed ceremony proved memorable. “My husband [marketing executive and Song friend Seung Chung] went shopping in Chinatown,” says Farr , “We came with a whole crew so he bought 10 outfits – everything from pajamas to silkies. Then we had a dress-up party at my house.”
Ling, 33, and Song, 41, got engaged over the holidays after he surprised her by flying their families to Chicago for the proposal which took place in a private dining room of Charlie Trotter’s restaurant.
