This is probably the best-looking mugshot you'll ever see

A fume-filled Escalade near Wynn Las Vegas caused a motorcycle cop to pull it over, suspecting marijuana.

Hilton's boyfriend Cy Waits (who manages the Tryst nightclub at Wynn) was driving, with Hilton in the passenger seat.

Later, when Hilton pulled lip balm from her purse (possibly in preparation for the mugshot), a bag of cocaine allegedy fell out.

Both were booked and released from Clark County jail.
