Paris Hilton Driver's License Drama - Works the DMV and the Courts

Paris Hilton Driver's License Drama - Works the DMV and the Courts

Camera-loving heiress Paris Hilton reportedly posed FIVE times before capturing the perfect photo for her new driving licence. Applicants usually get just one shot at the US Department of Motor Vehicle (DMV) offices. But Hilton, 28, was given the VIP treatment at the Santa Monica center, in Los Angeles, this week.

According to TMZ, the reality-TV star's assistant called ahead to inform DMV staff that the socialite would be dropping by for an appointment. DMV bosses were asked if Paris could bypass the usually long queues and they agreed. But despite Hilton's usual penchant for the photographer's lens, employees were ordered to turn off their mobile phones to ensure they couldn't snap her as she posed for her picture.

Last week Hilton had a courtroom in stitches as she told a chief district judge, "You're my best judge forever". Playing up to her dumb-blonde image, the hotel heiress was in a playful mood inside Miami Federal Court during day two of her breach of contract trial.

Wearing her trademark sequinned headband and dripping in diamonds, she took to the stand to explain why she had refused to promote the 2006 DVD release of box office flop Pledge This! At one point, Hilton broke with traditional court procedure by waving from the witness box to grab the judge's attention, to which he replied: "I've never had a witness wave at me before."
