Pariswatch 2005: Blackberry Juice

My continuing love/hate relationship with Paris Hilton continues with this story that truly takes the cake. Last week, someone hacked into Paris' cellphone/Blackberry and uploaded the contents onto the Internet. Not only did it have some compromising images Paris had taken (no surprise there) and embarassingly lame emails, but hundreds of celebrities had their personal phone numbers made public. Almost all of them were changed the day after, but not before some celebrities had to fight off hundreds of prank calls. Now we can't really blame Paris for this one...I mean, it's not her fault she got hacked...but I'm going to, anyway. Dumb blonde.

And in case you haven't seen it, here is the still-functioning copy (for now) of the hacker website and a whole website dedicated to the fiasco.

You beat me to it. Good show old man, but the next victory shall be mine.
What the heck is wrong with this girl? In a way it might not be her fault, but if she didn't make herself such a target this kind of thing wouldn't hapen.

It turns out it was her fault. She was dumb enough to use her pet's name "Tinkerbell" as her password. She might as well have used her first name.
