You got to respect an actor willing to admit they would rather do time then risk touching you.

From WENN:

Lost star Michelle Rodriguez chose a prison sentence over community service because she hates the idea of compulsory work. The actress, who plays Ana Lucia on the hit show, chose jail instead of 240 hours community service after being convicted of drink-driving in Hawaii last month. She spent 65 hours behind bars. But Rodriguez is adamant that doing time was far preferable to forced labor, despite admitting she has no qualms about doing good deeds. She says, "If I'm gonna do something for the community, I need to do that on my own accord. I don't like being told to do things for the community. I'd rather be in jail for a few days than be told what to do for a month."
