She is unable to take responsibility for her actions. For example:

After stealing a car and taking a joyride, and subsequently "kidnapping" the people who were inside the car at the time, she said "The black kid was driving."

She stole a necklace from an LA jewelry store and was sentenced to 120 days in jail plus community service.

She has at least two DUIs, and doesn't appear to have learned anything from her brushes with the law.

She was accused of trashing Liz Taylor's Cleopatra trailer, about $1000 in property was missing. Of course there was no proof. She just keeps skating away.

Other great excuses from this waste of space include:
-I lost my passport! After missing her flight and subsequent court appearance.
-These are not my pants! After drugs were found on her possession.
-It's the paparazzi's fault!

So yes, i cannot stand her. If you or me were accused of the crimes she has been convicted of, we would be in jail. No questions asked. So I will not cry or have any compassion for this drug-addled millionaire.
