It seems barely a week goes by without Paris Hilton being detained by the authorities for one reason or another. However, this time it seems she hasn't done anything wrong - well nothing new anyway.The heiress was held by immigration officials at Tokyo airport for six hours today in connection with her recent guilty plea on cocaine possession charges. Apparently, Japan is very strict when it comes to letting people with drug convictions enter the country.
After her release, Paris’ rep said in a statement: "Paris Hilton was delayed by immigration authorities at a Japanese airport this evening after arriving for business obligations planned many months earlier.Paris was contractually bound to her business trip and didn't want to let down her brands and many Asian fans. She intended on fulfilling her contract and is trying hard to do the responsible thing, but this is beyond her control. She is very disappointed by tonight's events."
Paris must remain at an airport hotel until the immigration authorities decide whether she can stay in Japan. It's reported that she is staying at the $60 a night Airport Rest House, while sister Nicki is enjoying the hospitality at a 5 star hotel in Tokyo.
Oh well.
