Paris Hilton Banned From Wynn & Encore Resorts

Following an arrest on Friday for possession of cocaine, socialite Paris Hilton has been banned from the Las Vegas resorts Wynn and Encore, a spokesman for the properties confirmed.

Hilton was arrested for cocaine possession after the SUV she was riding in was pulled over when a cop smelled the strong aroma of marijuana coming from the vehicle. Police allegedly discovered 0.8 grams of cocaine in Hilton's purse, and on Monday, she was charged with felony cocaine possession. Now Hilton is staring down a possible sentence of up to four years in prison and is due in court October 27.

Hilton took to Twitter early Wednesday (September 1).

"These rumors going around are so ridiculous, untrue and cruel," Hilton wrote. "I'm not going to even pay attention to them, because I know the truth."

Hilton has denied that the purse containing the cocaine belonged to her, and the reality stars attorney, David Chesnoff, has insisted the amount allegedly found is "negligible, the purse it was found in wasn't hers and Paris was illegally searched."

Paris is currently lying low at her home in L.A with boyfriend Cy Waits, her family and her pets.
