Paris Hilton discusses jail time with Lil Wayne in magazine interview


Socialite Paris Hilton and rapper Lil Wayne found a common topic to talk about during their interview with Interview Magazine – their time behind bars.

Hilton, 30, took a break from filming her upcoming reality show in L.A. to interview Wayne, 28, in Miami, via phone, and their conversation started off with how they spent their time in jail.

“For me it was okay because it just meant that I was alone with my thoughts,” the New York Daily News quoted Wayne as saying of his one-month stint in solitary confinement, after being caught with an iPod at Rikers Island last year.

“There were times when it was pretty tough to be by yourself, and to have no television, no sort of nothing…I was okay. I did fine,” Wayne, who released an album in jail, said.

Wayne was serving an eight-month sentence after being convicted of criminal possession of a weapon.

Hilton, who served 23 days in prison in 2007 after violating her probation by repeatedly driving on a suspended license and ignoring court orders, empathized.

“I know how you feel. It’s the best feeling in the world when you come out,” she said.
