Paris Hilton has been speaking to Barbara Walters

Hardened Prison-Bitch-Socialite Paris Hilton has spoken out from behind bars to promise TV host Barbara Walters that she has a "new outlook on life".

Paris was sent back to Jail on Friday to finish the 45-day sentence she began earlier this month, after a judge reversed the decision to allow her to complete the sentence under house arrest.

But despite being dragged out of the courthouse screaming, Paris called Walters yesterday and promised an end to her attention-seeking "act".

She told The View star Walters, "I used to act dumb. That act is no longer cute. Now, I would like to make a difference. God has given me this new chance." Walters is a longtime friend of Hilton's mother Kathy.
