Actress and hieress Paris Hilton doesn't mince her words when it comes to her former best friend, Nicole Richie. She called her "pathetic" in a recent interview. In an interview with Elle magazine, Hilton blasted Richie, with whom she is currently working on the television series The Simple Life. The two women are said to be avoiding each other on-set and have not exchanged a word since filming began. According to Elle magazine Hilton said, "She cannot stand being around me because I get all the attention and people really don't care about her." "I've been best friends with her since I was two, but when I brought her on to my show, she got very jealous and turned on me for no reason." Hilton added, "It breaks my heart. She was my sister. She was the funniest person to be around and then she let the fame go to her head. I never want to speak to her again - ever." |
