As you've all probably seen by now, Paris Hilton was photographed in Italy [above] carrying what appeared to be a bag of marijuana in her purse. Since we're no longer experts on the subject, we turned to High Times editor-at-large Steve Bloom — for whom a picture of a celebrity pot bust is like a Zapruder film — to talk us down: "Hilton is undoubtedly a pothead," says Bloom, adding that he is aware of her dealer in L.A.

But, more importantly, what strand of pot does a socialite carry? "Italian schwag," Bloom tells FishbowlNY. "Doubt she brought it from Cali."
