Paris Hilton missed the start of the Cannes Film Festival last week (end16May10) - because she forgot her passport and couldn't board a flight in Madrid, Spain.
The socialite planned to fly to Nice, France to join her sister Nicky and brother Barron for the start of the glamorous festivities.
But she was forced to delay her trip when she realised she didn't have her passport with her, reports New York Post's gossip column PageSix.
Nicky Hilton was later reportedly overheard telling fellow revellers in Cannes, "She had to turn around and get another flight."
But Paris managed to fly in to France to join her family for the Monaco Grand Prix at the weekend (15-16May10) - and has since been photographed partying in Cannes.
