Doppelganger: (Noun) An apparition or double of a living person.

Nicole Richie is reportedly shopping around a new reality show where she scours the country looking for ... a new Nicole Richie? Presumably because the old Nicole Richie has a baby and is in a longterm relationship and is therefore no fun anymore. In turn, the winner of being the next Nicole Richie will then supposedly get her own reality show.

From what I've gathered, the only real qualifications for being Nicole Richie are the ability to drive down the wrong way of the highway inebriated, fit into a size "0" and look awesome in oversized sunglasses. And if that's the case, than look no further! I suppose the next Nicole Richie should also theoretically have the ability to tolerate Paris Hilton in small doses, and I've seen The Hottie and the Nottie -- and didn't even try to gouge my eyes out with the straw from my Diet Coke. Note to self: stop saying words like "theoretically" when you're Nicole Richie.
