Paris' new video game

Paris' new video game
LOS ANGELES -- Paris Hilton unveiled her new video game, but inexplicably called it by the wrong name as she greeted throngs of fans and photographers. Hilton made a brief appearance Thursday at the Electronic Entertainment Expo to promote "Paris Hilton's Jewel Jam." "Sorry I'm late," the heiress said. "I'm really excited to have my new video game, 'Diamondquest.' Thank you all for coming, and you can download the game," she said. Her game, which can be played on a cell phone, will be available this summer. Video game maker Gameloft will produce a series of video games with Hilton.
Garrett leaves program
LOS ANGELES -- Leif Garrett was sentenced to 90 days in jail and three years' probation after opting out of a drug treatment program. The 44-year-old former teen idol was given credit Thursday for the jail time he had already served since being taken into custody March 30 after a Superior Court commissioner determined he failed several drug tests while staying in a live-in drug diversion program. Garrett's attorney, Andrew Flier, said his client decided to leave the program, which required frequent tests and daily counseling, because it was too strict. Garrett pleaded guilty last year to attempted possession of cocaine-based narcotics based on a 2004 arrest and was placed in a less stringent, outpatient rehab program.
