Paris Hilton's Cell Phone Hacked

paris hilton can't seem to keep her personal life out of the media...apparently someone hacked into her sidekick cell phone and stole her entire address book, inbox and unfortunately (for her)...all the pictures taken by the phones camera. now we all know how comfortable this classy young lady is infront of a camera so it's no surprise that that these pics have spread across the internet like crazy. but it's not just her pics...her phonebook had 500 entries including everyone from lindsay lohan to the olsen twins, even lil jon...yea. in the early hours after these numbers were leaked many celebrities were bombarded with phonecalls from fans and were forced to disconnect their lines. just to make sure I called several of these numbers...unfortunately lindsay lohan wasn't available to chat about her upcoming film Fashonistas which is curently in pre production...judging by the title it should be a good one. to be fair...paris had every right to have faith that her cell phone provider t-mobile would keep her personal info safe...she really didn't do anything wrong but I just have a hard time feeling sorry for her. she is a celebrity who doesn't really do anything. before the simple life her TV career consisted of weekly appearances on sleezy celebrity gossip shows like extra where she obviously was enjoying the attention...not that I ever watched...ok maybe once.

Update: 3/8/05

apparently the key to hacking paris hilton's cell phone was her pet chihuahua. t-mobile has a password security feature which allows a user to reset their password if they can answer one question correctly. users have a choice of several different questions and of course paris chose the one asking the name of her pet so all the "hacker" had to know was this and he could reset her password and gain access to her account...why she would choose this as her security question is beyond me..."tinkerbell" is every bit as famous as paris...while she has not yet ventured into amateur video like paris...she is a published author, well respected in many teeny bopper circles.
