Soap Star Cops a Plea

Posted Nov 7th 2007 2:57PM by TMZ Staff

"General Hospital" star Kirsten Storms had her own daytime drama play out in an L.A. courtroom today as her attorney, on her behalf, pleaded no contest to drunk driving charges.

The judge sentenced Kirsten to three years probation and ordered her to attend 12 AA meetings. That must start immediately, and she must attend two meetings per week. Storms' license was also suspended for six months, she must pay a $1643 fine and complete a 90-day alcohol program.

If she fails to comply with these terms, she must serve 13 days in County Jail. Paging Paris Hilton!

Storms was arrested in September after a CHP officer noticed a lit cigarette being thrown from her blue Mercedes. She was pulled over and the officer noticed an odor of booze in the car. After failing field sobriety tests, the actress was booked on DUI charges.

19. You dumb stupid bitch. Don't you kow how stupid it is to drink and drive AND how stupid it is to throw a lit cigarette butt out a car window? That's how forest fires start, (((IDIOT))!!! That's how they can get blown by the wind into somebody else's car and burn them or their seats, (((IDIOT)))!!! If you get lung cancer down the road, don't come crying to me, 'cause you get what you deserve. You got off easy, you talentless bimbo. Feel fortunate.

23.
Throwing a lit cigarette out of a car window is really asinine. Use your ashtray!

If it's the tail-end of the bong, chew it up. I'll bet even Paris chews the remains of a good bong. Don't throw it out!

Look what happens when you are wasteful.....

Karma, dudette

24. Why does TMZ keep trying to imply that Paris Hilton went to jail for an alcohol related offense????

She was sent to jail for a probation violation, the original offense was reckless driving with alcohol involvement.
