Heather Mills has reportedly asked Paris Hilton’s publicist Elliot Mintz for help with her bad reputation at Paul McCartney’s ex-wife. The former model was spotted talking with Mintz after the Miss USA pageant, at which she was booed by the audience when announced as a judge.

“Elliot thinks her bad reputation is nothing more than a challenge. He thinks Heather could become a big star,” says a source. “After Paris’ stint in jail she was getting a lot of flak and now she’s more in demand than ever. There are a lot of agents in LA who would represent Heather for nothing as they know her notoriety could end up being very profitable.”

 

Mills wants to move to the United States as she says people in her native England don’t like her.

 

“But I’m going to move to America, Los Angeles hopefully. I love England but everything that has happened makes me realize I’ll be better off in the States,” she added.
