Socialite Paris Hilton is set to goes back to jail – in a new musical. The hotel heiress is set to star as an inmate in an all women’s prison, and her character is reportedly involved in a lesbian relationship.

The West End musical is a version of the Australian TV show ‘Prisoner: Cell Block H.’

“Everyone is very excited. There was a real buzz around the show when we thought we would get some well-known Australian soap actors but Paris is a major coup,” a source said.

Hilton, who recently served 23 days in jail for violating her probation order in a DUI case, reportedly thinks it will be fun to play a lesbian.

“Paris is keen to stretch herself as an actress so she’s happy to kiss another girl for the audience and actually thinks it’ll be fun to play a lesbian,” the source adds. “She’ll also get to stretch her vocal chords and she loves that.”

The ‘Simple Life’ star recently launched a clothing line including a collection of tops, pants, dresses, and jeans.
