Yes, I said her stash -- not her, um, well, you know what I mean. More to the point, there are new pictures of Paris exposing the contents of her purse, including a rather suspicious bag of green leafy matter while in the front row of a Dolce & Gabbana catwalk show.
What kind of leaves, you ask? Well, according to her publicist, that is a question from which we shouldn't draw any conclusions.
Hilton publicist Elliot Mintz says for the record, "Things are not always as they appear. It would be unfair to draw any conclusions based solely on these photos."
Wow, he's good. Because for a minute, I almost thought that Paris had a dime bag of some tender sativa, in nice little easy-to-pop-in-your-pipe form, wrapped in a convenient travel-sized, straight-from-your-dealer baggy. But hells, y'all, that's just her personal stash of chamomile tea, for those late nights when she has trouble relaxing.
Sadly, this isn't Mr. Mintz's first foray into spinning 
Paris's proclivities for public behavior more befitting the Kottonmouth Kings than an heiress. Over the summer, Mr. Mintz was forced to issue this statement in response to video of Paris smoking what appeared to be a joint outside an L.A. club: "I just want to get something clear with you. Paris Hilton rolled her own tobacco cigarette. It was tobacco that you saw."
Yes, and crack is that space between your butt cheeks.
Honestly, if I were Mr. Mintz I would politely write the following letter to the Hilton camp:
Dear Paris,
As of this moment, I am resigning from my position as your publicist. Despite my earnest efforts to the contrary, you have made it clear that you are completely uninterested in conducting yourself in a way that is fitting of your station in life. It is not just that you are consumed by self-destructive habits, for that is to be expected of someone whose parents gave them everything but love and time. It is more your wanton disregard for my position and ability to parlay your stupidity into anything other than pathetic riddles and allusive enigmas to explain your behavior. I am a publicist, not a magician. No amount of money can make you more than you are, which in the vernacular of the day is something the youth might call a skeezer.

Weed in her purse? Does she think she's a blogger now?

chortle! Paris is going for the weedy street cred - it's all a ploy.
3 - DJRadiohead
And here I thought we'd be talking about her va-jay-jay again.
I can't wait until Friday (hint hint!).

LVCW, yeah, I figured there would be some kind of snarky comment from you ;)
DJR - hells yeah!!
As for Paris' street cred - well let's just say I have more street cred in my badonkadonk than Paris could ever buy - she's whiter than sour cream.

at least if the elephant in the picture, we would have less two pieces of trash and an even better story and a win win win situation.

Chris, are you making violent suggestions again? I like the way you think!!!

"you have made it clear that you are completely uninterested in conducting yourself in a way that is fitting of your station in life."
Hahaha.."your station in life"..that's a good one.
Everyone who is conduction themselves in a way that is fitting of your station in life, please raise your hand.
I'm not sure, but I think my life is stationless.

Dawn, these pictures are way better on the eyes than the previous ones when we got to see the shaved fire-crotches of the movie princess and the hotel heiress. No wonder this girl is always smiling.

I don't know Dawn, having Paris as a client seems to be to be terrific challenge for a PR flack - the Everest of celebrities. It's easy to work with a Tom Hanks-type - all civility, common-sense and politeness - the Hilton's of the world though - that's the challenge! Handle that scandal well and you've made your rep - everybody else is easy!

I wish I had one-tenth the money Hilton has. I'd skip the publicists and fawning wannabes, though. Too much drama.

Deano has a great point about the challenge: if Mintz can sweep those stables, he's a legend and a saint
16 - Dawn
He does have himself some skillz. I guess I am not cut out to be a PR rep, oh well, better stick to my station in life, whatever that is.
17 - Von Zipper
But how the mighty have fallen: Mintz used to be press rep for Dylan and in John Lennon's inner circle.
18 - Michael J. West
Mintz is still Yoko Ono's spokesman. And my God, he is quite possibly the greatest Yes Man who ever lived.
19 - Michael J. West
By the way, Dawn, I have to say that your letter from Mintz is freakin' hilarious.
20 - Eric Olsen
I think Elliot is following the money - there's a lot more action with Paris than aging legends. HI work with Paris is a way of life, not just the occasional artful statement
