The daughter of soul star Lionel gave best friend Paris Hilton a rat named after Spelling, and word quickly got back to the actress--who played Donna Martin in the hit show.
Richie says, "I gave Paris Hilton a rat called Tori Spelling for Christmas, and Paris loved her. I told Tori about how I named my rat after her and (she) tried to pretend it was funny, but I could tell it hurt her feelings.
"Tori felt I think her face looks like a rat's, but I actually own six rats and I named each after a character on Beverly Hills, 90210, like Shannen Doherty and Luke Perry. My mother freaks out about my rats and is always trying to make me get rid of them because I am obsessed with them, but I love them and so does Paris.''
