Paris Hilton has lawyered up in Dubai. Yes, Paris must have realized – or at least read the tabloids – that wearing a bikini in the strict nation is NOT a good thing and can land you some jail time. And since Paris already tried jail once and didn’t like it, she got some lawyers ahead of time to keep her out!

More pictures of Paris after the break…

Paris had hired cultural help so she knew how to act in Dubai, but it didn’t help. She broke their rules while filming her show, Paris new BFF. From Pretoria News:

The 28-year-old – who is filming a third series of her My New BFF in the United Arab Emirates – reportedly wanted to ensure her flesh-flashing ensembles and unruly behaviour would not get her into trouble.

A source told Britain’s Daily Express: “She may be an airhead, but she’s not about to run the risk of spending time in a Dubai prison.”

The heiress was terrified about getting into trouble during her stay. In Dubai, it is forbidden to drink alcohol, kiss and heavily pet in public.

I guess this means there won’t be any more animal print bikinis on the beach for Paris. At least this trip, anyway. How long is Paris in Dubai, anyway? Her boyfriends don’t last this long!
