Hey Everyone! Thanks for all your votes and support but I got a call from casting for the show and have an audition so I guess no more real reason to campaign for votes anymore, but good luck to the rest of you!
Yet another reason why I would make a great BFF for Paris... my last name.
It is Ritchie. Yeah so it has a T thrown in there, but maybe since my last name is just a TAD different from that of her former, it means I am just what she needs!
Good times and good luck to everyone with their votes! SHOW ME SOME LOVE! :-)

So I have seen lists of these questions on many people's pages, so I decided I should probably post them as well-- if you are looking for my own explanation as to why I think I am a great fit for the show, read the following blog, it is all ad lib on my part. If you want to read what the casting people want to know, here ya go:
Do you consider yourself fabulous? How so?
Naturally I do! Fabulous isn't something you are or aren't... it is a state of mind. If you tell yourself you are fabulous and carry yourself as such- you are.
What qualities make you the perfect celebrity BFF?
Everyone here is proably going to talk about how they long for the public spotlight life, and stuff like that- however I do not feel that is what makes anyone a perfect celebrity best friend! I think the most important qualities to befriend a celebrity (of which I possess) is first and foremost- being discreet. Celebrities CANNOT afford to have friends that talk to the press and are only in the friendship for a photo-op in the next episode of US Weekly. They want someone who can be themself and just be able to hang out with them like they were not a celebrity. They have people kissing their asses and trying to be their freinds with selfish motives everyday-- that is the last thing they are looking for. I think I would be the best candidate for Paris' BFF because I would respect her privacy and treat her like I do all my other friends... in the end isn't that what everyone wants?
What similarities do you share with Paris? How are you different?
My biggest similarity with Paris Hilton is probably that we were both raised in a world of privilege. While I certainly have not had all she has had, I was raised in the world of private schools (until HS when I wanted to go to the local HS for betters sports teams), country clubs and a family that cared more about their social image than their children themselves. Another thing that I share in common with Paris is her spirit and personality. Although some people may disagree- I think Paris has a huge heart and genuinely does care about other people and the causes that she represents. I also have a huge heart and have a burning passion for the causes that run near and dear to my heart. Paris and I both carry ourselves with confidence and don't care to walk to the beat of our own drum. We are both definitley trend setters and not followers.
Since no one is a perfect replica of anyone else, Paris and I obviously have our differences as well. Paris is more of an entrepenuer and wants to make a brand out of herself while I am following the path of law school and hoping to lead more of a "Standard" adult life. This difference, however, is sort of like our ying and yang. She would represent the free spirit side and could maybe teach me how to be more outside the box, and with my more standard life path, I could help keep her grounded and show her the side of her that is "normal." We also differ in the realms of fashion. She has a more "out there" sense of style and isn't afraid to take fashion risks, where I am more of a "lets just go to D and G and Bloomingdales and get stuff that is amazing, but more plain." Getting guts for more risky fashion is something Paris could definitley help me out with!
It's hard to stay in the public eye. How would you maintain the limelight?
Yes- being in the public eye is something that is harder than people give it credit for and I am sure gets old very fast! I think the key here is to ALWAYS be aware that someone is watching, and there are people out there who make a living by catching you do something "wrong" that they can sell to the tabloids and expose you for! When in public, just be aware that Big Brother is always watching and keep a smile on your face-- save the crazy stuff for behind closed doors! Continuously being in the limelight would be a difficult aspect of befriending a celebrity but it comes with the territory and, in my opinion, is well worth it!
Hey Everyone!
Thanks so much for checking out my audition page! You may be wondering why me? There are thousands of people on here who think they would be perfect to be Paris' best friend, so what makes me stand out?
Well, if you check out my myspace (myspace.com/2hot4twat) you can see I defiitley know how to have a good time and be the life of the party! I would be one of the most entertaining people on the LA party scene and would be a riot to watch!
Aside from simply going out and being crazy- my personality is just very outgoing and there isn't anything I won't do or try once! I always have something to say and always let me opinion be known-- no matter who it hurts!
In addition to being a crazy partier, I think Paris' best friend has to be someone who has already dabbled in her lifestyle. She would want someone that was raised in privilige and would be someone that she can relate to on a level that is not just wanting to be a socialite. That is definitley me! I also feel that Paris has been quite a bit misunderstood and whoever gets the opportunity to be her best friend would be someone who can sympathize with her situation and support her for the fabulous girl that she is!
Thanks again for stopping by my page, and don't forget to give me a vote!
Thanks All
