There's no word yet from Paris Hilton or her publicist, Elliot since yesterday. This must be a very difficult time for her. In fact, there haven't been any other news about her all day.

However, we're happy report that the media hasn't been making a huge circus out of this despite all of what you have seen. Unfortunately, the word is spreading very fast, and the leaking has just began.

No serious or shocking statement from Paris in the leaked videos have been heard so far.
