Paris Hilton Banned from Two Wynn Nightclubs on Las Vegas Strip

LAS VEGAS (CBS/AP) It has been an interesting week for Paris Hilton, who was arrested Friday for investigation of felony possession of cocaine.

The 29-year-old heiress has been laying low and tweeting fans thanking them for their support, but yesterday Hilton - well-known for her socialite tendencies - was banned from not one, but two Wynn resorts on the Las Vegas Strip.

Wynn Resorts Ltd. Spokeswoman Jennifer Dunne told The Associated Press that Hilton is no longer welcome at Wynn Las Vegas and Encore.

Meanwhile, Hilton's boyfriend Cy Waits was "separated" from his new managerial position at Tryst Nightclub at Wynn and the XS The Nightclub at Encore following his arrest for suspicion of misdemeanor driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

Neither Waits' nor Hilton's camp have responded to the newest development.

The decision to ban the duo is a result of Friday's incident, in which Hilton and Waits were pulled over in the 34-year-old's Cadillac Escalade after an officer noticed smoke wafting from the vehicle that smelled a lot like marijuana.

Waits, who was driving, had bloodshot eyes, smelled of alcohol, and wobbled as he failed two field sobriety tests, the arresting officer said.

Hilton on the other hand was dealing with her own bag of issues, specifically the bag of .08 grams of cocaine that allegedly fell out of her purse while she was struggling to retrieve her lip balm.

Waits spent a night in jail and was released on $2,000 bail and given a Nov. 29 court date.

Hilton's arraignment is scheduled for Oct. 27 and the heiress could face probation if convicted.

She'll probably just buy both casinos and fire everyone.

She should go to jail just for smiling in her mug shot.

She was HIGH! Probably trying to stop herself from laughing her a** off!

Banned from two Las Vegas Wynn Resorts?

. . . . Big freaking deal for somebody named HILTON, it's not like she'll be homeless or anything. I guess the boyfriend will never work in LV again, though. Maybe she'll do the right thing and give him a job at one of the many Hilton locations around the world, ha.

She must really be dumb if she didn't have somebody holding her drugs for her. A lot of celebrities who were into heavy partying avoided being busted by using "personal assistants" to carry for them.

FYI, she was cut-off by Grandpa so she has nothing more to do with the hotel chain. She hasn't for a little over two years.

Other reports have been saying it was point 8, or just less than a full gram. Typical of what a user would carry on a night out.
