Paris Hilton is backing an online campaign to request California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger issue a pardon following her 45-day prison sentence for driving on a suspended license.
In a blog posted on her homepage at social networking website MySpace.com on Tuesday, Hilton urges fans to sign a petition being organized by a supporter calling for the socialite to be spared jail time.
"My friend Joshua started this petition, please help and sihn it. i LOVE YOU ALL!!!!!," Hilton said in a message above a link to the petition (http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/PH21781).

The petition calls on Schwarzenegger to issue a pardon, claiming that she has been used as a scapegoat by authorities seeking to highlight the dangers of drink-driving.
The Hilton hotel heiress "provides hope for young people all over the US and the world. She provides beauty and excitement to (most of) our otherwise mundane lives," the petition reads.
"We, the American public who support Paris, are shocked, dismayed and appalled by how Paris has been the person to be used as an example that Drunk Driving is wrong," it adds.
"We do not support drunk driving or DUI charges. Paris should have been sober. But she shouldn't go to jail, either."
Hilton must begin her prison sentence at the Los Angeles Century Regional Detention Facility on June 5 or else risk seeing her sentence doubled.
She was handed her jail term after a court ruled she had broken her probation by twice driving while banned earlier this year following a conviction for drink-driving.
