If you still don’t know the real reason Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie are fighting about now, there is yet another theory about why they are not on speaking terms. According to Janet Charlton Hollywood, the real reason is Nicole asked the producers of The Simple Life for a salary that match the one they were paying Paris.

For those who don’t already know, what happened was, Paris invited her best friend Nicole to costar on HER new reality show The Simple Life a few years ago. The first season of the show was a hit and soon Nicole decided she wanted a raise. Instead of consulting Paris , she went straight to producers and asked for more money. Paris was OUTRAGED that her friend “went behind her back” and asked for the same salary as hers. After all it WAS Paris’s show! She considered Nicole a traitor and tried to get her kicked off the show and replaced by her new best friend Kimberly Stewart. But producers felt Nicole was the funny one and she was essential to the show’s success. That REALLY infuriated Paris. Their feud only made the show MORE popular. Interestingly enough, not long ago, Paris was seen walking out of Nicole’s W est Hollywood condo. A secret meeting?

Sounds like a conspiracy to get people to constantly talk about them and the show for rating.
