Paris Hilton is two for two in having authorities drop charges after reportedly being caught with pot.

The heiress was detained for about 30 minutes in Corsica after sniffer dogs detected about a gram of reefer in her bag, the French newspaper Corse Martin reported Saturday, according to the AP.

You may remember that she was also arrested in South Africa after a World Cup match on suspicion of possession of marijuana, but charges were dropped.

Hilton tried to quash the report out of Corsica, posting on Twitter:

Just to put an end to these rumors. The stories saying I have been arrested are completely false! I am having the best vacation of my life! What an amazing summer! I feel so blessed and grateful for everything. I Love Life!! :) Now let's move on and everyone focus and enjoy their own summer time! Love you guys! Xo Paris
