Paris Hilton wants to be the first celebrity to go into space.

The hotel heiress plans to take her reality TV show 'The Simple Life' into orbit and have cameras filming her as she trains to be the first celebrity astronaut.

A source said: "She imagines she would be followed by cameras going through all the training before ultimately blasting off to become the world's first celeb astronaut."

However, Paris' 'Simple Life' co-star Nicole Richie, who she was recently reunited with before the fifth series of the show began filming, is not so keen on the trip because she is afraid of flying.

The source added: "Nicole is out. There's no amount of money that would tempt her to do that. She hates flying on jets!"

Paris, 25, recently revealed men are often disappointed that she is not as sexy as they expected her to be.

She said: "People shouldn't judge me and assume that's how I am. I get in so many fights with guys who say, 'In public, you are the sexiest sex symbol, but you're not sexual at all at home.'"

Paris admits she would rather eat than have sex.

She said: "I'd rather watch a movie or eat."
