Property tycoon DONALD TRUMP’s daughter IVANKA has hit out at socialite PARIS HILTON for living off her family’s wealth, insisting the pair are nothing alike.

The 25-year-old former model has blasted Hilton for her wild lifestyle, and is sick of constant comparisons between the two heiresses, because she works hard for her money, reports The Scoop.

She says, “I work 13-hour days for my money. I bought my house from my father – I have a mortgage, you know.

“I think we are totally different individuals. If I were to go off the rails and become this party kid, I would not be able to afford my lifestyle. I’ve never had a sense of entitlement. I saw how hard my father worked for his money and it was always made very clear to me that things wouldn’t just be given to me.”

Reality TV tycoon DONALD TRUMP was honoured with a star on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame on Tuesday.

The APPRENTICE star was in Los Angeles with his wife MELANIE KNAUSS and their infant son BARRON to see the 2,327th placed on Hollywood Boulevard.

And Trump took the time to comment on his feud with actress-turned-TV personality ROSIE O’DONNELL.

He said, “If the press would let it die I’m sure it would die.

“Not everybody has to be politically correct. I think that’s why this so-called feud took on a life of its own, because it wasn’t politically correct.

“In a way it’s wonderful that she doesn’t like me and I don’t like her. There’s nothing wrong with that.”

O’Donnell upset Trump, the owner of the Miss USA pageant, last month when she ridiculed him on her magazine talk show THE VIEW for giving hard-partying beauty queen TARA CONNER a chance to redeem herself during a much-publicized press conference.

Senate Majority Leader Joseph Bruno says he has spoken to Donald Trump about running for New York governor in 2006.

The Republican told an Albany television station that Trump, the real estate developer turned television personality, is considering running.

Trump has not commented on the gubernatorial suggestion.

Reports indicate that Trump considered running for president in 2000 on the Reform Party ticket, according to the Associated Press. In state races, Trump has donated money to both the Republican and Democratic parties.

State Attorney General Eliot Spitzer is the only Democratic candidate, and Republicans are looking for someone with name recognition to challenge him, reports the AP. Several Republicans have entered the race, but none with a name comparable to Trump’s.

Trump bounced back from bankruptcy to be a billionaire business mogul. He stars in NBC’s hit The Apprentice.
