Tonight's episode of 'The World According to Paris' (Wed., 10PM ET on Oxygen) caught up to the headlines as we delved into the moment when Charlie Sheen's ex-wife Brooke Mueller realized it was all too much. Mueller is also one of the principal cast members in this new series.

Rather than risk a relapse, she spoke to Kathy Hilton about her vulnerability. This was mere hours after a disastrous double-date with Paris Hilton that on the surface seemed to be going along just fine. But Mueller checked out of it early, clearly suffering from an inner turmoil the cameras couldn't capture.

"It's that I just feel like I'm going to do something stupid," she told Kathy. "I think I have to go back to rehab."

I always imagined that being a Hilton is like living in a soap opera--wealth, scandal, and the occasional arrest. Apparently real life isn't dramatic enough for one member of the Hilton clan. Paris' mother, Kathy Hilton, will appear on The Young and the Restless as herself. The episode, which will air on May 13, was filmed on Wednesday.

Hilton's fictional self will ruffle some feathers in her Y&R cameo by taking over a magazine photo shoot. I'm not sure where that falls on a soap opera's bad behavior scale, but I'm sure that such workplace antics will at least earn Kathy a few dirty looks. The Hiltons have had plenty of TV exposure over the last month. Paris just did a cameo on a recent episode of My Name is Earl. Barron Hilton, Paris' brother, became a gossip show regular following his DUI arrest.
