The heiress Paris will get a little less time to spend in the big house due to her good behavior.

Hilton's sentence has been reduced to 23 days according to Los Angeles County sheriff's spokesman Steve Whitmore.

The sentence was reportedly shortened due to credit given for good behavior - which amounts to her showing up for her latest court date.

The socialite will not be the belle of the ball at the Century Regional Detention Center in Lynwood, California - as she will be kept separate from the general population. Hilton will be in a private section reserved for high-profile 'guests.'

Paris Hilton's mother Kathy wants fans of her daughter to learn from the 45-day jail sentence handed to the socialite for violating her probation by driving with a suspended license earlier this month.

In a statement read by family friend and TV anchor Barbara Walters on The View Wednesday morning, Kathy Hilton expressed her wish for something good to come from her daughter's predicament.

Her statement, read by Walters, said: "We can only hope that something positive will come from this. Hopefully, young people who look up to people like Paris will learn from this."
