Heather Mills is moving to L.A. because she’s not popular in the U.K.

Ironically, Sir Paul McCartney’s ex announced her future plans after being booed at the Miss USA pageant in Las Vegas over the weekend.

Mills reportedly conceded: "In England, people don't like me.

"But I'm going to move to America, Los Angeles hopefully. I love England but everything that has happened makes me realise I'll be better off in the States."

Speculation is growing that Mills will hook up with Elliot Mintz, the Hollywood publicist behind Paris Hilton's miraculous transformation into a household name.

A source tells the UK’s Daily Mirror: "Elliot thinks her bad reputation is nothing more than a challenge. He thinks Heather could become a big star.

"After Paris's 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.

"Look at Fergie - when she left the UK she wasn't exactly popular with the Brits but America embraced her."

Can Mintz work her magic on Mills? Be sure to let us know your thoughts.
