How to Write to Paris
()
Dear Laist,
I feel really bad for Paris Hilton. Sarah Silverman made jokes about her yesterday. She obviously wore a black dress to the MTV awards as a sign of mourning. She seemed so sad when everyone applauded at the Gibson that she was going to jail.
I would like to write her. Do you know how I can get in contact with her and tell her my prayers are with her?
Paris Fan in Highland ParkDear Paris Fan,
Our buddy Trent over at Pink is the New Blog is one of those guys who always seems to have the correct info. Today he posted a great roundup of Paris's last hours of freedom. And he also posted the address where all of the heiress's fans can send her cakes with files in them.
Support for LAist comes from
Sadly we're afraid Paris will use the file on her nails. So make sure to provide instructions.

As Editor-in-Chief of our newsroom, I’m extremely proud of the work our top-notch journalists are doing here at LAist. We’re doing more hard-hitting watchdog journalism than ever before — powerful reporting on the economy, elections, climate and the homelessness crisis that is making a difference in your lives. At the same time, it’s never been more difficult to maintain a paywall-free, independent news source that informs, inspires, and engages everyone.
Simply put, we cannot do this essential work without your help. Federal funding for public media has been clawed back by Congress and that means LAist has lost $3.4 million in federal funding over the next two years. So we’re asking for your help. LAist has been there for you and we’re asking you to be here for us.
We rely on donations from readers like you to stay independent, which keeps our nonprofit newsroom strong and accountable to you.
No matter where you stand on the political spectrum, press freedom is at the core of keeping our nation free and fair. And as the landscape of free press changes, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust, but the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news from our community.
Please take action today to support your trusted source for local news with a donation that makes sense for your budget.
Thank you for your generous support and believing in independent news.
