Paris Arrives at Jail Early

Paris Hilton opted to show up to the Century Regional Detention Facility in Lynwood, Calif., which is about 5 miles away from Los Angeles, earlier than everybody expected her to start her prison term.

The all-female facility is actually a pretty tough one as far as woman’s facilities go. However, Paris will be housed in the “special needs” section of the prison that is reserved for, well, special needs prisoners such as celebrity-types, police officers, and any other high profile types that could be singled out because of such status, and face particular danger in the general population of the prison.

Hilton had spent part of her Sunday afternoon at the MTV Movie Awards before pulling a fast one on the public-at-large by surrendering early to start her jail term. She had been scheduled to arrive at the facility in two days, the mandated deadline for showing up to start the jail term.

Donning a black strapless dress on the pink carpet yesterday, she stopped to tell reporters how she felt about the upcoming jail term, in retrospect cluing us in to her ‘hot move’ to show up early for the term, telling reporters, “I’m ready to face my sentence. Even though this is a really hard time, I have my family, my friends and my fans to support me, and that’s really helpful.”

And while most of this time during these proceedings she has shied away from the camera and talking about the sentencing, and seeming quite distraught over the whole reality of the situation for herself as a result of the sentencing, and only making a few sound bytes to the effect that she felt this was unfair and so on, now, that is yesterday she told reporters, “I am trying to be strong right now. Even though this is a really hard time, I have my family, my friends and my fans to support me, and that’s really helpful,”.
