CULVER CITY, Calif. - Paris Hilton says she isn't giving up "The
Simple Life" just yet. "We're shooting Nov. 1," said the 24-year-old
hotel heiress, who had a front-row seat at the Louis Verdad fashion
show Sunday. "All the networks are fighting over it."

Fox said last week it had canceled the reality show starring Hilton and
Nicole Richie. The network said its midseason schedule didn't have a
time slot for a fourth season of the show, prompting speculation the
feuding ex-friends no longer proved compatible.

Hilton said she and Richie will continue working on "The Simple Life"
because other networks want it.

Last week, 20th Century Fox Television, the studio that produces the
show, said it hopes "The Simple Life" will move to another network -
with Hilton and Richie.

"We believe this series ... is still a dynamic and valuable franchise,"
the studio said. "We hope to be able to announce a new network partner
in the coming days."

Bunim-Murray Productions, which produces the show with 20th Century
Fox, also released a hopeful statement: "We're very excited about the
creative plans for the next group of episodes, and are confident this
situation will be remedied quickly."

Hilton's friend Kimberly Stewart, Rod Stewart's 26-year-old daughter,
dismissed as "rumor" reports that she had been touted as a replacement
for Richie.

But Stewart was coy about doing a future project with Hilton, telling
reporters Sunday, "You never know."

In April, Hilton issued a terse statement saying it was "no big secret
that Nicole and I are no longer friends. Nicole knows what she did, and
that's all I'm ever going to say about it."

Hilton has given no reason for the split.

I think Hilton should give up on the acting. There is only so much a
person can take. The talentless claimed "actress" is only famous
because she is rich to begin with.

Then why haven't we seen any mentioned in the news stories about Fox
dumping it?
Or maybe they're "fighting over it" the same way there must be record
companies fighting to release Paris' record (snerk).
