It’s A Media Circus Outside Paris Hilton’s House

On narrow Kings Road in the Hollywood Hills, about 40 paparazzi and entertainment journalists trained their sights on Paris Hilton’s house.

Neighbors cautiously drove through the crowds that blocked the winding street. Trash trucks had to wait for police to clear driveways while irate residents chided journalists for leaning against the gates.

It was all part of the fallout from Hilton’s early release from jail and confinement to her home for 40 days.

Watching the action were three bemused Danish tourists who were and laughing and wondering what all the fuss was about. Anders Garder, 32, said, “One word I would say: ‘Why?’ ”

The most exciting moment was about 10:30 a.m. when a Mrs. Beasley’s Gourmet Cupcakes van pulled up and Anthony Crisafulli delivered three containers of the treats to the house.

“She hasn’t eaten well while she’s been away,” Crisafulli said, noting that Hilton had called the Beverly Hills store this morning. She is a regular customer, he said, noting her favorite cupcakes are strawberry and mocha.

Reporters from CNN, E! Entertainment, “Access Hollywood” and “Inside Edition” were among those staking out the multilevel, Spanish-style house with black wrought iron gates. Two crossed U.S. flags hung in front with a big yellow ribbon in the middle.

Around noon, a delivery man wheeled in six cases of Party Animal organic gourmet dog food, topped by an extravagant fruit basket.
