Move Over, Nicole Richie

Who wants to be Paris Hilton’s new best friend? Plenty of people.

A slew of them showed up yesterday at a pink-themed Hollywood Hills mansion for the launch of the hotel heiress’ new MTV reality show in which she searches for a new bestie.

“I think I’m like her,” said Sheila Lee, a 26-year-old real-estate agent. “I love pink, you know. I’m just so girly, a very bubbly girl like her.”

Valerie Zirpoli, a 22-year-old college psychology major, said she and Hilton are in the same predicament. Just as Hilton says she doesn’t have new mom Nicole Richie to pal around with anymore, Zirpoli explained she recently lost her best friend "to some stupid asshole guy.”  

“I’m kinda more like Nicole," Zirpoli said. "We could feed off each other’s energy. I already go to the Ivy religiously.”

Meanwhile, sister Nicky said she’ll be helping out, too. “If you look at the history, you can see some of her friends who definitely take advantage of her fame. So I think she just wants someone who’s loyal, likes her for her and not for what parties she can get them into or how she can further their career,” Nicky said. “I have a pretty good judge of character, so I try to send my warning signs out.”
