It was a similar transformation for co-star Nicole Richie.

Her makeover followed a court appearance on Friday for driving while under the influence of drugs.

She was sentenced to four days in jail and now has to make up her mind between the city jail or the county jail - where Paris did her time.

Paris is used to changing her looks. After her recent 23-day stay in jail she donned a black wig in a bid to keep a low profile as she jetted off to Hawaii.

Appearing alongside the "celebutantes" in the latest episode of the drama camp is award-winning actress Sally Kirkland.

And if the black makeover isn't shocking enough, there are reports in LA that Paris has agreed to appear - and sing - in a new movie musical.

Paris - whose pop career ended in disaster - will take a leading role in the futuristic thriller called "Repo! The Genetic Opera".

An insider has said "she will have a number of show-stopping scenes".

The film - which features musical numbers that range from opera to rock - is set in 2056 when a plague nearly destroys the human race and survival is dependent upon being able to finance a pricey organ transplant.

Stunning Paris will play the bad-girl daughter of the organ transplant magnate - played by "Goodfellas" star Paul Sorvino.
