The L.A. Times reports that when the judge ordered Paris Hilton back to jail, the 25-year old hotel heiress crumpled into tears and then cried out "Mom, Mom! It's not right," as she was taken from the courtroom. The modern-day "it" girl, famous for being famous, reduced to a childlike state.

Deja vu:

Nobody has to guess

That Baby can't be blessed

Till she sees finally that she's like all the rest

With her fog, her amphetamine and her pearls.

She takes just like a woman, yes, she does

She makes love just like a woman, yes, she does

And she aches just like a woman

But she breaks just like a little girl.

"Just Like A Woman," by Bob Dylan, c. 1966

Album: Blonde on Blonde
