So two blondes who hated each other for reasons that may or may not include fighting over large pork rolls, have recently kissed, made up, likely had their publicists contact one another to negotiate talks of an anniversary edition of The Simple Life, and gotten together to mourn the loss of their near, dear friend Casey Johnson. Obviously Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie’s whimpers are not to be outdone by Tila Tequila’s hysterical tweets, but then again, few displays of sadness can compare to such emotional outbursts.

A grief-stricken Hilton blabbed to the tabs, “On such a sad day it brought a smile to my face to at least have one dear friend back in my life. I haven’t seen Nicole in a long time, and she’s been so busy with having her two babies.” At least unlike her Santa stories, she can keep the number of Richie-Madden spawn straight. Hilton and Richie fell out in 2005.

Apparently a source was on hand–probably Nicky Hilton, fresh from poaching pooches at Tila Tequila’s house–to offer, “Casey would be happy to know that even in this tragedy, she brought these friends back together. Like any best friends, people can get in an argument, but, at the end of the day, they love each other, and that’s what matters most.”
