Keeping Em On The Farm
[ By Stephen Battaligo]
Daily News Staff Writer

The reality series with Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie is a big hit, and Fox is thinking of doing a sequel. We want more Paris Hilton!That's what Fox executives were saying yesterday, after the second episode of "The Simple Life" scored big in the Nielsen ratings.
The hotel heiress' fish-out-of-water reality show with pal Nicole Richie is Fox's biggest hit of the season, and the network is clamoring for an encore.In fact, Fox is already considering a sequel for Hilton and Richie, the party girls who trade in their Christian Dior duds for overalls on an Arkansas farm."There is some discussion of that right now," Fox reality-programming guru Mike Darnell told the Daily News.

Some 13.3 million people tuned in to Wednesday's show - even more than saw the premiere the night before.And, for the second night in a row, "The Simple Life" was the top-rated show among viewers ages 18 to 49, the group that matters most to advertisers, beating the night's ratings titan, "Law & Order," in that key category.

A delighted Darnell called the show's success "lightning in a bottle.""It took off much more quickly than we imagined," he said. "The ratings on Wednesday mean there was great word of mouth."The network only has five more episodes of "The Simple Life." But now there is plenty of financial incentive to produce more episodes, or to put the two girls in another wacky situation.Darnell said Hilton and Richie "both like the show very much, as did the whole [Hilton] family. They seem very, very happy with the show itself and how the girls come across."

While some of Tuesday's ratings might be attributed to the massive publicity over Hilton's notorious homemade sex video, Wednesday's numbers mean that viewers liked the show."The Simple Life" may have also benefited from Hilton's decision to cancel many of her recent interviews and TV appearances because of the furor over the tape. The series turned out to be the only place to catch her.

Fox had been in a prime-time ratings slide until now, having learned this season how tough it can be to sustain or replicate fast-breaking reality hits.Back in January, "Joe Millionaire," in which women competed for the affections of Evan Marriott, a construction worker posing as a rich scion, became a pop-culture phenomenon. The show's finale drew 40 million viewers.But few TV viewers cared this fall when Fox tried to pull off the stunt again: "The Next Joe Millionaire" fizzled in the ratings.Nevertheless, "The Simple Life" is likely to spawn imitations."I'm sure executives at the other networks are hearing pitches from producers saying, "I can get Cher into a nunnery,'" said Fox executive vice president Preston Beckman. "You're going to see a lot of shows with celebrities put into weird situations


Farm Boy Carrying Torch for Paris Hilton
Altus, Ark. — It's a love story that could go down in Hollywood's history books: The socialite and the farm boy
Two different worlds, two separate lives ... and at least one broken heart.Paris Hilton, the airhead star of Fox's reality series "The Simple Life," fell hard for 18-year-old Arkansas kid Trae Lindley.

Their small-town affair -- to be aired nationally -- led to Lindley's split-up with his high-school sweetheart. While Paris has cooled on him, he's still carrying a torch for her. And in Altus (search) -- population 817 -- it's become the talk of the town.When the celebrated hotel chain heiress came to Altus to film episodes of her TV show, she set her sights on Lindley. While working at the Lakeside Food Mart, the blond bombshell in rhinestone heels picked him out of a crowd of high-schoolers and asked him to ditch his friends and hang out with her. "She told me, 'Stay here and talk awhile,'" he said. "I was too nervous at the time to remember what I was talking about. I couldn't even remember what was said after I was done talking to her."

Hilton asked him for his phone number and soon called him up."We talked for two hours," said Lindley. "After that, it felt like we were really good friends. I was in shock for a little while, but after I got to know her, it felt really different. I didn't feel like she was so famous."Lindley had read about Hilton being heiress to the hotel-chain fortune in People magazine, but knew little else about her. Her XXX-rated video romp hadn't yet been revealed."People knew she had the hots for me and I had the hots for her," he said.

For years, Lindley and his girlfriend Carolyn Cains had been the most popular high-school couple. They were named homecoming king and queen and the future seemed bright. Then Paris Hilton came along.Clearly bowled over, Lindley -- who grew up in a farming community -- took the heiress to the movies, to the mall, and to the bowling alley. He admits he was cheating on Cains."Most people get mad at me around here because they think I was in the wrong," he says. "But I've had enough. The tabloids keep calling me and making me real mad about it.""It was a lot of fun," says Lindley, who is a freshman at the University of Arkansas after graduating third in his high-school class."Paris is a lot different than what people make her out to look like. Many people make her out to be a dumb blonde, but she's a lot different."

Lindley, who stars in several episodes of "The Simple Life," said the intrusive cameras got on his nerves."I got tired of them, and I know how she feels because they're all over the place," he says. "There were times when they left her alone, but they were there -- in our face -- most of the time. They'd hear every little whisper."Expect to see a lot of Lindley and Hilton kissing, making out and flirting with one another.

"They were really smitten with each other and if you saw them together, it was really cute," says Shannon Burns, 39, a manager at Fat Tuesday."Seeing them out, it was more of an innocent, teenage-type relationship than what you see of her out-and-about."Lindley's family even had Hilton and co-star Nicole Richie over for dinner a few times."They ate very little," says dad George Lindley, who owns a real-estate company in Ozark, Ark. "But they were very well-mannered. Paris was very nice, very sweet and not like she is portrayed in magazines.""They were very normal when they came to dinner. They thanked us. They were very cordial," adds mom Tammy Lindley.Hilton even showed up at Lindley's graduation, and a lot of people were really surprised. Especially Lindley's ex-girlfriend."Paris got in a fight with her [Cains] at graduation," said Katrina Beam, 23, a bartender at Alligator Ray's, a local bar."She was pretty upset and she had a couple of her friends ganging up on her. There were more than looks exchanged. I heard it got pretty ugly."

Hilton fell so hard for Lindley that she even tried to talk him into going back to California with her, promising to hook him up with modeling agencies.But Lindley, who has a full scholarship to the University of Arkansas, turned her down.Lindley says he's spoken to Hilton several times since the show stopped shooting. But since last month's media hoopla over a sex tape made by Hilton and a former boyfriend, it has become harder for the two to communicate."When I did speak to her, she was really stressed out and said she can't leave the house anymore, she can't have fun," he said."I feel embarrassed for her. I feel like she got a lot of crap from it and I feel sorry for a lot of what she's going through."On campus, Lindley has become the topic of conversation."The worst rumor I heard was about my mom and Paris ... that something happened between them sexually," he said. "That's not true."Lindley said that what matters most to him is making his parents happy and leading a stress-free and simple life."I'm proud of Trae for all the reasons other than Paris," said dad George Lindley. "I hope he keeps his grade-point average, and all this doesn't distract him much."

Are The Simple Life's Nicole Richie and Paris Hilton playing it smart - or stupid?
(By Kevin Dickson)

Everyone knows reality TV is made in the editing room and its stars are shaped into whatever the director wants. Just ask Ozzy Osbourne, Jessica Simpson or Anna Nicole Smith. Or notorious L.A. party girls Paris Hilton (hotel heiress) and Nicole Richie (Lionel's daughter), stars of The Simple Life. The show follows the seemingly perplexed duo as they leave behind the luxurious trappings of their lives in Beverly Hills to live in a small town. A very small town. In Arkansas. Since neither girl is lacking money or media attention - this past year Richie was convicted of heroin possession while in recent weeks Hilton has been linked to Australian Idol contestant Robert " Millsy" Mills and is fighting the distribution of a sex video with former boyfriend Rick Salomon - it seems insane for them to be putting themselves up for this kind of ridicule, right?

Wrong. The Simple Life turns out to be a pleasant surprise. Sure there are times when you just roll your eyes at something Hilton or Richie says, but the fact is both women are smart enough to play along with the joke, and likable enough to give the series the warm heart ( and conscience) that was missing from, say, Annna Nicole Smith's show.

"I just think people have stereotypes." sighes 22-year-old Hilton over breakfast in her usual hangout- the coffee shop at the Beverly Hilton. "They'll see a blond girl and think she's dumb, she's a snob. I was brought up to always treat everyone the same. And that's what I believe."

The show setting is Altus, Ark, population 817. Richie and Hilton moved into the partially built front room of the house belonging to the strict, conserative Leding family, and traded designer duds for overalls.

"The Ledings loved us," Hilton enthuses. "At first I thought, 'Oh God, where are we? I didn't think it would be that bad. The house looks worse on TV than in real life."

The town of Altus was a bit slower to warm to the strangely dressed girls from the big city. "At first, everyone was staring at us like 'Who are these girls?'" Hilton laughs. "And then we became friends with everyone. Everyone loved us. We met 80-year-old men with no teeth. Everyone told us they thought we'd be spoiled, mean girls, but they'd tell us we're so nice."

Hilton and Richie have been inseperable for nearly 15 years and Hilton stood by her friend during her troubled year. Richie hopes The Simple Life wil help clean up her name, and her image.

"I've gotten a lot of bad press and a bad rep." 21-year old Richie says candidly. "And I want people to know that I'm not like that.

"I think the series shows me as a nice girl," she continues. "But it's so easy for them to show me at 4:30 in the morning milkng cows and I'll yawn and someone will be lik 'Oh my God, she's on heroin.' I hope it's not like that."

The Simple Life's clash of Chanel No. 5 and Old Spice makes for some of the most sweetly memorable reality TV in a long while. Scenes of the girls milking cows, clearing road kill and pumping gas are genuinely amusing, though Hilton remembers many of the girls' assigned jobs as being more grueling than funny.

"The worst job was the dairy farm, like milking hundreds of cows," says Hilton with a grimace. "I thought it wouldn't be that hard, but I didn't realize we'd have to herd them and put the suckers on them. It was like a factory, they'd line up and you'd have to clean off their things. Then they'd crap on you and kick you. It was disgusting."

However game the girls were, there are still moments wthat leave you shaknig your head in disbelief. Most notable is when Hilton asks if Wal-Mart is a store that sells walls. Hilton claims she was just playing a part.

"I was trying to be funny," she says, rolling her eyes, "I loved the movies Clueless and Legally Blonde, and I just wanted it to be cute and funny like that. Both those characters, no one hates them, they think it's funny and cute."

Hilton has nailed The Simple Life appeal - like Cher or Elle Woods, The Simple Life combines ingenue smarts with native spunk. It's Lifestyles's of The Rich and Famous meets Green Acres. Like Hilton and Richie themselves, it's smart, and simply fabulous

Nouveau Richie
The Simple Life's Nicole Richie quits drugs, terrorizes farmers and becomes a TV star. Only in America.

Just before she was due to appear as a celebrity model at the Joey and T fashion show in L.A. in October, Nicole Richie received a stern warning from the designers: Please don't do anything outrageous. Might as well ask her not to breathe. This is a girl, after all, who once lay down in the middle of Sunset Boulevard to protest not being able to get a sandwich at 2 a.m. "She doesn't really live by any rules," says a childhood pal, model Kimberly Stewart. "She just does what she wants."


Strutting to the end of the runway, Richie yanked her shirt up to reveal . . . her newly pierced nipple. "I was excited and wanted to show everybody," explains the 5'2" socialite turned TV star. "I've just gone through so much in my life that pulling my top up just doesn't seem like that big a deal."
Especially when you consider how much notoriety Nicole, the adopted daughter of pop star Lionel Richie, has crammed into her 22 years. True, she hasn't turned up in an amateur sex video like Paris Hilton, her best friend and costar of FOX's hit reality show The Simple Life. But Richie's had her mug shot taken three times in the last two years. "I got arrested for a DUI when I was 20," she says. Then in October 2002 she was arrested following a brawl in a New York City nightclub. "The charges were dropped," she says.

Not so last Feb. 27, when Richie was busted in Malibu for driving with a revoked license and possession of a controlled substance. "They found one balloon of heroin," she says. "It wasn't on me; it was in the car." Nevertheless, at the urging of her parents, Lionel, 54, and his former wife Brenda, 51, Nicole checked herself into an Arizona rehab center. "I give her a lot of credit," says Lionel. "She said, 'Dad' — and I love this line — 'I think I have a problem.' I was just so relieved when she (realized) that maybe she was going too fast down the road."

In August she was sentenced to three years' probation. "I've been sober since March," she says. "No drinking, no drugs, and I have someone who checks up on me. And I am definitely happier now."

Certainly more so than she was back in April, when she and Hilton gamely pursued The Simple Life as guests of the Ledings, a farm family in Altus, Ark. The plucky Beverly Hills belles clashed with patriarch Albert Leding, often ignoring his midnight curfew. "We were so bored we just needed a little time alone," says Richie. Time to meet the local boys too. She says she fell for Anthony Leding, 18, whose father is Albert's cousin, but the two have since lost touch. "We just live in different worlds," says Richie.


Hers spins a lot faster. Her birth father, a musician, and mother, a backstage assistant (whom she declines to name), split up even before Nicole was born in Berkeley, Calif. Lionel Richie was so taken with Nicole, a fixture at his concerts, that he got her parents' approval to let her move into his L.A. home when she was 3. Six years later she was adopted by the Richies. "My parents were friends with Lionel," says Nicole. "They trusted that they would be better able to provide for me."
At the same time, Brenda and Lionel were going through what Nicole recalls as "a very stormy, bad, public, horrible, horrible divorce." (Brenda had caught Lionel with another woman, Diane Alexander, whom he wed in 1996 and from whom he recently separated.) Nicole went to live with Brenda and enrolled in a posh L.A. private school, which she attended with Paris and her sister Nicky. By 14, she was using fake IDs to sneak into clubs and honing her party-girl reputation. A few years later, she says, "I experimented with drugs," and at 21, "I dabbled in heroin."

She's now single and living in a guest house on Brenda's three-acre Bel Air estate. Richie "is much more focused than she used to be," says Nicky Hilton. "She's grown up a lot." Enrolled in acting classes, she goes on auditions "here and there," she says. She recently scored a guest shot on UPN's Eve. "She's really kind of mastered the art of survival now," says Lionel, who lives five minutes away. "I tell her, 'As long as you're having fun, that's all that really matters.' "

But not too much fun. "My (wild) reputation is so not what I am," says Richie. "Maybe only my close circle knows there is much more to me. But that's my world, you know?"

Paris Hilton


The socialite talks about The Simple Life, the partying life and wearing heels on a farm.


By SEAN DALY






Socialite Paris Hilton takes a stab at The Simple Life on FOX.
(Tsuni / Gamma)




These days, you can't throw a glitzy Hollywood party without two things: a red carpet and the Hilton sisters. Platinum-blond hotel heiresses Paris and Nicky Hilton have become ubiquitous fixtures on New York and L.A.'s star party circuit, even if they're not known for much else.
But now Paris Hilton, 22, is getting attention for actually doing something. She and close pal Nicole Richie (yes, Lionel's daughter) are the stars of FOX's latest reality show, The Simple Life, in which the two party girls were dropped onto a farm in Altus, Ark. (population: 817), to live with a family for four weeks. Buzz for the show has been so strong that the network has decided to delay the premiere from August until the fall. Hilton recently spoke with PEOPLE about her Green Acres-style adventure.

You've said your sister (Nicky Hilton) would never have survived in Arkansas. What part wouldn't she get?
Everything. The room. Working. Getting up at 4:30 in the morning. She would have hated it.

What makes you different from her that you could pull it off?
I am tougher than her. She is more of a city girl. I am a tomboy. I can play in the dirt, I don't care. It's fun.

Are you hoping the show will further your film career?
Yeah. I think it will be really good just to see how I look on camera.

Your costar Nicole Richie said you guys met some boys in Arkansas. What happened?
We just met some cute guys. We were there for so long. We didn't do anything. We just kissed.

Where did you meet the boys?
We were at the gas station working and they ditched school and came to meet us. Everywhere we were, people would show up. It was such a small town. Wherever we were working, people would come.

What is your best fashion advice for anyone heading to a farm?
Don't wear heels.

You stayed with a family while you lived in Arkansas. Any plans to bring them out to Los Angeles?
I am trying to get (family member) Janet to come out here. She is scared to come out to LA. I'm like, "You're gonna love it." And she's like, "We've never been on a plane. We'll drive."

Would you let them stay with you?
Sure. I lived with them so long, of course they can stay with me.
What would they find most surreal about your place?
Everything. More than one bathroom.

Are you ever overwhelmed by the public fascination with you and your sister? It seems like you can't open a newspaper without reading something about you.
I know. And I don't even have a publicist.

There were some pretty mean comments about you and your sister at the recent MTV Carson Daly roast. What is your response to all of that?
I don't care. I think it's fun. He made fun of everyone. I don't care if people make fun of me.

So you are pretty thick-skinned?
I could really care less, after all these years.

We hear you're working on a CD. Who are your musical influences?
I just love Madonna. I love Britney Spears, love Christina Aguilera. But I don't want to be another pop star, really. I want to be different and cool.

You also have quite a few movies coming up ?
The Cat in the Hat, Wonderland ... In Wonderland I am like this girl that hooks up with Val Kilmer on a boat. Just this random girl, I guess. I think I am supposed to be a porn star. I don't know. My name is Barbie. Then in Cat in the Hat I am dancing at this rave and Mike Myers comes up and dances with me, and Alec Baldwin is chasing him around.

Any plans to pose for Playboy?
I'm not doing that. They have offered me a lot of times. But I just don't need to do it. I like Playboy. I like Hef. I think it's cool, whatever. But I just don't want to do it.

What do you steal out of Nicole's closet?
Nothing. We always buy things in twos. Our parents always bought us the same thing and dressed us up as twins when we were growing up. We always just buy the same thing. We didn't even know that we were both gonna be wearing stripes today.

Paris on the cover of this week's Star Tabloid
PARIS HILTON'S new reality show, The Simple Life, (airing Tuesdays at 8:30 p.m. EST on Fox) purports to document what happens when two pampered princesses, Paris and her pal Nicole Richie, deprived of money and other luxuries, are plunked down in the middle of a small, "simple," Southern town to work blue-collar jobs. But this Star investigation reveals what you won't see:

The work was a lark:
"They were kind of pumping gas at the Exxon for one or maybe two days but they didn't do much," says Chris Trotter, who works at the gas station/grocery store. "They pumped a few cars, but just for the cameras. Fox offered $5 off a tank of gas to get a lot of people to come in [to the station] those days."


They did have money:
"At first, they'd just take gum and candy and sodas from the store and then Fox would come in with a credit card to pay for everything," says Trotter. But then, Jess Rowland, a local who met the girls while filming , says Paris borrowed $600 from him, noting, "I haven't gotten it back yet."

They fooled around with local guys:
"I heard Paris say that it was just innocent flirting, but I think it was a lot more than that," insists Trotter. "She hooked up with several guys."

They enraged local girls:
"I couldn't believe the way those girls dressed; they looked like hookers!" says Altus resident Donna Eddy, who often saw them at a local bar. "Every time they came in, they started dirty dancing with each other, and they exposed themselves as well. I know I saw Paris' butt at least five times, and other things were falling out too."

Their local fans are few!:
"They'd come in here and get on their cell phones, talking really loud so everyone could hear and saying rude things about the town," says a manager of the local Wal- Mart. "They had a lot of nerve." Adds Jennifer Crabtree, who works at the Altus Circle M food store, "Paris wasn't friendly or outgoing at all, and she certainly didn't do anything in the time she was here to make you think different."

Richie's no simpleton
By Donna Freydkin, USA TODAY
The millions who have seen her Fox reality show The Simple Life might call Nicole Richie spoiled. Raunchy. Lazy. Even, well, dumb.

Nicole RIchie, seen here at the Billboard Music Awards, says her Simple Life schtick was all an act.
By Eric Jamison, AP

But to hear Richie, 22, tell it, it's all an act. Seriously.

"I'm very, very nice with really good manners. I'm not high-maintenance at all. I'm not!" she says as she orders a sandwich at Ago in Los Angeles.

On the show, filmed in Altus, Ark., last spring, Richie gives a cow a pregnancy test, frolics with locals and, along with pal and co-star Paris Hilton, shows plenty of flesh and desperately hunts for something — anything — fun to do.

But in the real world, Richie lives with her adoptive mother, Brenda Richie, in L.A. She's busy writing songs for an album and trying to kick-start an acting career.

"My life has changed so much since the show aired," says Richie. "I've been in the public eye my whole life, but this is so different. I hear people quoting me on the street! When I presented at the Billboard (Music) Awards, I couldn't even walk through the lobby. It was crazy."

In fact, Richie caused a mini-sensation at the live awards show when she tweaked her scripted lines by asking the audience whether anyone had "ever tried to get cow (expletive) out of a Prada bag." Big deal, says an unperturbed Richie. "Otherwise, we would have sounded so ditzy and stupid," she says.

Richie also doesn't discuss the murky circumstances that led her from her biological parents, who live in San Francisco, to her adoptive family, crooner Lionel Richie and his ex-wife Brenda.

"I was adopted just because I'd have a better lifestyle out here, but I try not to get into that. I'd like to keep that private," says Richie, who's still in touch with her birth parents and says they approve of The Simple Life.

While she may not have starred in an amateur sex video like Hilton, Richie has had her share of scuffles with the law. Most notably, she was arrested in February for driving with a revoked license and possessing a controlled substance. Although heroin was found in her car, she says the drugs did not belong to her.

"I pleaded no contest, and it was a bump in the road in my life and something that I've gotten through," says Richie, who spent time in rehab and was sentenced to three years' probation. "I'm really lucky to have my parents' support. I definitely have done a lot of things wrong in my life."

But no more, Richie says. Earlier this month, during a routine progress report, Judge Lawrence Mira praised Richie for staying sober.

With her legal travails behind her, Richie, who is single, is focusing on her career. She plays the cello, violin and piano and plans on recording a pop album. On Friday, she'll fly to Manhattan to audition for the Broadway show Rent. She just landed a guest appearance on the UPN sitcom Eve. And she's in talks, along with Hilton, to star in a Simple Life sequel.

"I'm sure it'll work out," she says.

Thursday December 18:
Paris Hilton Answers Back
[Star Magazine Dec 23]
:I've Changed My Life.The Feisty star of Fox's The Simple Life fires back after the sex tape and denies accusations that she was just too wild in Arkansas
When Paris Hilton signed on to appear on the hit Fox reality TV series, The Simple Life, with her friend Nicole Richie, she didn't know that a tape of her having sex that she made in private with a former boyfriend, Rick Solomon, would be made public. She also didn't know that she would be accused of callously stealing a local teenager's boyfriend.

She didn't know that some people in the town of Altus, Ark., pop. 817, where The Simple Life was filmed would accuse her of being promiscuous. Or that she would be accused of hard-partying there.

Now, for the first time, Paris Hilton sits down exclusively with Star and responds to all the controversy.

On The Sex Tapes, Paris Says:
I wanted to show people I could deal with the situation and have them laugh with me and not at me. I've always watched Satuday Night Live ever since I was a little girl. So I thought it was a good place to have fun with it.

On What She Learned After The Sex Tapes, Paris Says:
I've grown up a whole lot overnight. So maybe there is some good in even the bad. The way I treat people and whether or not I trust people - it has really changed me for the better. The people I associate with now are good people. I've been rethinking everythin, but my head is on straight. I know what I want to accomplish in my life. Evn the way I've dressed these days has changed.

On Stealing Another Girl's Boyfriend:
Caroline Cains,18, was a good student and a popular cheerleader dating a star on the basketball team, Trae Lindley, 18. A friend of the Cains family tells Star that when Paris was in Arkansas to film The Simple Life, Paris told Caroline, a high school senior at the time, that she should break up with Trae because Paris was going to go out with him anyway. Caroline was devastated, clams a friend of the Cains family.
Paris Says:
I would never threaten a girl. that's beneath e - especially over a guy. I can't speak for him except to say he told me the two of them were long over. The girl is probably mad because he obviously didn't care about her; if he liked her he wouldn't have been with me. Yes, I kissed him while on camera. No, I didn't sleep with him. There were Fox-TV cameras on us twenty -four, seven.
When i met Trae, Nicole and I were working at a gas station. He came by, and he seemed really, really nice. I don't even know[Caroline]

On Her Partying Ways:
Some locals claimed Paris and Nicole partied hard.
Paris Says:
When I tell you the camera crews were with us 24 hours a day, 7 days a week there was never a time when we were left alone. There was always someone recording, watching. We had to be home at midnight, and we only went out three times. The stories they are saying - that we ditched the camera crews and would go out all night - they're not true.

On Her New Look, Paris Says:
Skirts, suits, that's the look I want. Expect to see Paris Hilton in much more demure ensembles like Richard Tyler suits.

On Her Being Dumb On The Simple Life, Paris Says:
We behaved like Lucy and Ethen in order to make it a good TV show. We were basically told to do all the dumb stuff. It is not stuff Nicole and I would normally do. So basically, we got people to laugh at two stars making fools of themselves.

On Being Promiscuous:
In some cases, claim sources in Altus, Paris and Nicole went well beyond flirtation. "They just seemed like they weren't one-man women while they were here," says Jody Jenkins, principal of the local high school
Paris Says:
I would say that is a lie. I am a very romantic person and loyal and very, very deep. I have to love someone before being involved with them or being in a relationship. People just love to make up stories. It is annoying, to say the least. They do this a lot with all celebrities. I'm not going to spend my whole life worrying about what people think of me.


On Her Upbringing, Paris Says:
My parents were very strict, especially my mother. We were brought up to be very humble. The rumor is that I got a credit card at 9-years-old, and that one was ridiculous. It was more like I was 19 years old, and I had to get one myself without my parents. We had rules and regulations. I had a curfew of midnight until I was 17. I had to check in with my parents all the time, especially my mother.

On Her Parents, Paris Says:
My dad is the support system in the house. He gets us through every crisis. I am daddy's little girl. My mother supports me in everything I do. When I was younger my mother didn't want me to be a model. But Donald Trump wanted me to go to his agency. My mom didn't want me to do it. She said ' I want you to go to school and get a proper education.' She knew how the modeling world worked. When I was 16 I really wanted to model in New York. My mother is the one who talked me out of it. I don't know how the rumor came about that my mother Kathy Hilton wants to become a celebrity herself and she lives vicariously through her daughter Paris. It is not true. It is just the opposite. She'd rather me not be in the Hollywood lifestyle. She would rather me be a doctor or lawyer. I never even had a publicist until a month ago. That shows you how my parents didn't want me in this lifestyle. I'm very lucky to have parents like mine.

On Her Dog:
Paris is known to to carry her pet chihuahua, Tinkerbell, around with her everywhere in a Louis Vuitton doggy bad. The dog appears in the Simple Life.
Paris Says:
I love her the best in the world. I dress her up, and I spoil her rotten. I get so many cool things for her - little coats, shoes, and darling little boas. She loves dressing up. She's happier in clothes than not in clothes.

On Leaving Altus, Ark.
Some people in Altus, Ark., say they celebrated the show's wrap - and Paris' exit from town. "It was like having your in-laws visit and you're happy to seem them leave," says one Altus resident. "They've broken hearts. It's a TV show to them, and that's all there is, but you are dealing with real peoples' lives here."
Paris Says:
It's funny how everyone loved us in town while we were there. In fact they were all very sad that we left. They were crying, they wanted us to stay. Honestly, when I left, I was crying. I got really close to my sponsor family, the Ledings. I'm going to miss the family. It hurts my feelings that some people, as soon as I leave, would do this - just make up flat -out lies. It hurts me that they would do that because when we were there it was the total opposite.

The One Thing That She Wants The World To Know, Paris Says:
We had a good time in Altus Ark., I'm a good person. I'm a good girl.
