Paris Hilton on Letterman

David Letterman has an exasperating habit of fawning over his female guests, so color me delighted to see him sticking it to Paris Hilton on his show last night.

At one point during the interview (during which he keeps needling her about her time in jail), an audience member screamed, “I love you Paris!” and Paris — *GAG* — blew a kiss in response. Dave quipped, “Is that somebody you met in prison?” As the crowd erupted in laughter, Paris paused and said, “I didn’t come here to talk about this. That was a long time ago. Now you’re making me sad that I came.”
