It was reported that Paris Hilton’s T-Mobile Sidekick was hacked into and the entire list of contacts including all of her celebrity friends phone numbers and e-mail addresses were posted on the Internet on Saturday night. Not only were the elite’s digits posted, there were reports of naughty pictures of the heiress (oh, something new), alleged emails from Lindsay Lohan, and personal notes to herself including "call Maroon 5."
With the outing of their private information, celebrities have raced to change their numbers and e-mail addresses. Among those who made the mistake of giving their number to Hilton are Lindsay Lohan, Ashlee Simpson, Victoria Gotti, Ashley Olsen, Stephen King, Vin Diesel, Andy Roddick, Nicole Richie, and Fred Durst. Gotti reportedly said that she received over one hundred telephone calls in a span of two hours. She said she took the phone off the hook and as soon as she put it back on "they started ringing immediately" and "it’s driving me insane." A number of websites that had posted Hilton’s info yanked it after the Secret Service contacted them.
According to a spokesperson for T-Mobile, the company was "actively investigating to determine how Ms. Hilton’s information was obtained." The company claims no knowledge of how Hilton’s info became public, but it happened only days after Nicholas Jacobsen pleaded guilty to breaking into a protected T-Mobile database. There is no official comment from Hilton, who recently spent her 24th birthday in Disney World with her family and didn’t seem too concerned that her private information had been obtained. Does she ever seem too concerned with anything?
