PARIS SPEAKS TO STAR ABOUT NICOLE FEUD!
In an exclusive interview with Star, Paris Hilton says why she and Nicole Richie have ended their feud. "We both just realized we've been friends for 22 years and it's stupid to throw all that away and fight with someone you've known your whole life," Paris told Star on Oct. 9, after she and Nicole spent the afternoon at the L.A. gravesite of Brent Shapiro, the 24-year-old son of L.A. attorney Robert Shapiro, who died on Oct. 9, 2005, after slipping into coma after taking ecstasy and alcohol. "The media was always making up stuff about us fighting and a lot of it wasn't true."
Paris and Nicole came together after Paris sent Nicole a text message regarding an upcoming trip to Fiji, planned by executives of their hit show The Simple Life, sources close to the show said.
According to the plan, the ladies would both be on the island, but would be filmed separately. Neither lady liked the plan. So Paris, tired of the problems the feud was causing, sent Nicole a text message, simply saying, "I don't want to go to Fiji."
And after that, they began talking, and resumed their old friendship.
"It's like we were never in a fight," Paris says. "We just picked up our friendship just like we were."
Paris even invited Nicole to sister Nicky's birthday bash in Vegas last weekend, but Nicole couldn't make it, sources tell Star. So the ladies planned a dinner at Dan Tana's when Paris returned to L.A. The dinner turned into a sleep over at Paris', where the life-long girlfriends caught up with each other.
But they never discussed the reasons for the rift. They also avoided touchy topics like Nicole's book The Truth About Diamonds — which slammed Paris through a thinly veiled fictional character based the heiress — and Paris' swipe back at Nicole through a song on her album titled Jealousy.
"We're both in a similar place and feel like we've been used by a lot of people," Paris says. "And we just realized the only people you can trust are the ones you grew up with."
