May 10 - A nude sculpture of Paris Hilton in an autopsy after a drunk-driving car crash goes on display in New York.

Sculptor Daniel Edwards has created a piece showing the hotel heiress with legs open, cavity in her stomach, with her intestines detachable.

He depicted her as drunken prom queen undergoing an autopsy.

"The Paris Hilton Autopsy" is meant to be a statement on the dangers of drunk driving just as high school prom season rolls around, Edwards said.

Hilton was sentenced last week to 45 days in jail for violating probation by driving on a suspended license, and she intends to appeal.
