SHE is the Paris Hilton of Vietnam.

This petite soap star has scandalized the conservative nation after a sex video with her boyfriend was posted on the Internet.

Unlike Hilton, however, Hoang Thuy Linh, 19, is unlikely to capitalize from the scandal as her show has been canceled and she has been forced to make a tearful apology.

“I made a mistake, a terrible mistake,’’ said the doe-eyed teen, who had cultivated a good-girl image. “I apologize to you, my parents, my teachers and my friends.’’

Police have arrested four students accused of posting the video of the teenage TV soap star having sex with her boyfriend.

Authorities announced Saturday the arrests of the four Hanoi men and women, aged between 21 and 25. They would be held for three months pending an inquiry.

Hoang, the lead actress in “Vang Anh’s Diary,” was at the center of a storm nearly two weeks ago when Internet users downloaded the clip, which initially ran for five minutes, from a video-sharing Web site and began circulating it.

Vietnam state television canned her popular nightly show after the clip was revealed.

Authorities believe the clip was stolen from the laptop of Linh’s boyfriend. Linh and her boyfriend, the son of a senior police official, would not face charges, Hanoi police director Nguyen Duc Nhanh told the Phap Luat Ho Chi Minh City newspaper.

Hilton’s sex tape, made with then-boyfriend Rick Salomon, surfaced just before the start of her reality TV series, “The Simple Life,” and helped propel her to superstardom.
