Stars Behind Bars - June 5, 2007

 

While Paris Hilton headed to the hoosegow Sunday night, she's far from the first celebrity to have done time. Hilton is just the latest in a long line of famous folks who've visited the ol' Graybar Hotel. 

The list of such notorious notables includes Martha Stewart, Phil Spector, O.J. Simpson, Lil' Kim, Mike Tyson, Robert Downey, Jr., and Robert Blake

And we mustn't forget that classic stars Robert Mitchum and Errol Flynn (who actually met his second wife, Nora Eddington, at the courthouse concessions stand while on trial) were jailbirds. 

The granddaddy of all stars behind bars may have been Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle, who underwent three trials for murder before being acquitted. Despite his innocence, Arbuckle's career was ruined by the scandal. With a prison sentence under her belt, we wonder exactly what it would take for Paris's good name and career -- whatever that may be -- to be tarnished.
