While Paris was praised yesterday for her compliance and quiet stoicism on her first day in prison, the news on her second day is not as good for the pampered socialite. She’s been crying and is said to be freezing cold in her cell in the special protected area of the Century Regional Detention Facility.

The body fat-challenged heiress has only three small blankets, no pillow and a very hard bed with a thin mattress. She’s been using one of the blankets as a pillow. The cell is always brightly lit and it’s difficult to sleep.

And while I assumed that Paris’ area of the prison was sufficiently isolated from the rest of the prison population, that’s not true at all because it’s really loud in there from the noise of the jail.

It sounds like people are trying to be nice to Paris, though. All the inmates were shouting her name when she was led to her cell on Tuesday, and people are coming up to her door and trying to talk to her.

TMZ reports that inmates have been giving her little gifts like an origami butterfly and a drawing book. Another told her “you don’t deserve to be here.”

I wonder how Paris will change in the three more weeks she has to endure that place. She’s said to not be eating much and it sounds like it’s very difficult to her.

She’ll probably smile and say “oh, it was tough” in her bland sweet way when she’s interviewed by the countless media outlets that will hound her when she gets out. Maybe something profound will happen for Paris though, and she just might learn humility in jail. She’ll at least known what extreme discomfort is like for once in her life.
