Nicole Richie Fears Being 'exploited' Like Hilton.... Socialite Nicole Richie fears following in the footsteps of her Simple Life partner by being "exploited" and sentenced to a jail term.

Hotel heiress Hilton has to report to Los Angeles' Century Regional Detention Center by 5 June (07) to start serving her sentence for violating her probation following a 2006 drink-driving arrest.

And Richie worries that constant negative media attention will influence officials to take the same line as with Hilton and she will be incarcerated too.

Richie says, "Sometimes people just get exploited. I can only hope that doesn't happen to me."

The socialite already court massive media attention, recently hitting the headlines after newspapers printed copies of an eMail seeming to promote heavy drinking and anorexia.
