This week: Lily Allen, Fall Out Boy, Jordin Sparks and others weigh in on whether Paris should go to jail.
Perhaps you’ve head that Paris Hilton is going to jail. A judge ordered the heiress to serve jail time after she was busted driving with a suspended license. The starlet’s license was originally suspended after she was arrested for speeding through L.A. streets while under the influence, in a hurry to get some food into her perfectly tanned belly to soak up all that alcohol. Paris and her ensuing stint in jail have become a major topic of conversation among … everybody. Is she finally getting what she deserves or is her punishment too harsh? We decided to ask a few of the people we interviewed last week what they thought. Here are their answers.
- Lily Allen: “No, she broke the law, why shouldn’t she go to jail. She’s rich, she could have afforded a driver to take her around anywhere, she didn’t need to be driving that car when she didn’t have a license”
- ‘N Sync’s Chris Kirkpatrick: “Everybody who does a crime obviously needs to be punished, but I have a little bit of sympathy for her because she’s not a normal person. She’s been brought up in such a bubble … it’s got to be ten times harder on her than it would for everybody else. Hey, you know what, you do the crime, pay the time. But it’s a different realm for her. It’s going to be a shock for her.”
- Fall Out Boy guitarist/lead singer Patrick Stump: “I think she’s being made an example of, so I think it’s kind of weird. If it were anybody else I don’t think she would be judged as hard. However, you should play the hand you’re dealt. If that’s how it’s going to be, c’est la vie. I hope nothing bad happens to her in prison … You know who I really have sympathy for right now is Alec Baldwin, because that’s nobody’s business.”
- Rose Hill Drive guitarist Daniel Sproul: “I think it’s fucking hilarious because she’s a cunt. I don’t know her. My relationship with her consists of watching her on TV. From what I know, I think it’s a situation that’s being blown out of proportion. She did something that a lot of people do. I think it’s god damn hilarious that a high profile rich person goes to jail. I just picture her and her little fucking dog in her jail cell. Hilarious. Even with this question it’s like people are talking about a non-human. She’s just, like, an idea. Her as a person…who is she?”
- America’s newest idol Jordin Sparks: “You know, I … I think it’s sad and I don’t know. I think it’s sad, but in all honesty I just, I mean you’re told not to do something, you shouldn’t do it. So, I mean, that’s the consequence I guess, but I do feel bad.”
