Paris Hilton's stress starvation

May 31, 2007, 7:00 GMT

Paris Hilton has stopped eating under the stress of her impending jail sentence.

The hotel heiress - who will serve 23 days in prison from June 5 for driving with a suspended licence - is so scared she has lost her appetite entirely and keeps breaking down in tears.

A source said: "Paris hasn't been eating at all and her parents and friends are beyond worried about her.

"She breaks down crying a lot because she just can't deal with the reality and the pressure of everything that is happening.

But a source close to 'The Simple Life' star recently said that she would emerge from jail more beautiful than ever.

The insider said: "It's going to make her more famous than ever. In jail, she's going to get enviably skinny, and without any make-up or products her hair and skin will finally be able to breathe, so they'll look amazing, too.

Plus she's going to get all that street cred."

The 26-year-old socialite was sentenced to 45 days in jail for violating the terms of the probation she received for Driving Under the Influence (DUI) but she will only serve 23 days.

Paris released a statement saying, "I am ready to face the consequences of violating probation", and two weeks later dropped her appeal case against the sentence.
