Jiblets: Page Sixer Paula Froelich nearly lands in Darren Starr’s new show

· Celebrity handler Benny Medina has secured professional assistant assailant Naomi Campbell a $1 million reality show deal with E!, where she’d be filmed while hunting for a new assistant (that’s a joke on its own). Only problem is, Medina doesn’t, uh, rep Naomi anymore.

· Page Six’s Paula Froelich almost scored herself a role as a NYT foodie in Darren Star’s new series, Kitchen Confidential, based on the gossipist’s boytoy Anthony Bourdain’s book. She read for the role, but Starr signed on with Bitty Schram. Positive reviews in the New York Post, however, can be assured.

· Kate Moss fulfills her role as a drug-laced supermodel, appearing “out of it” while accepting a CFDA award and then failing to appear at her own Bugalow 8 after-party.

· Dan Rather isn’t seeing much time behind a news desk these days. Instead, you can find him at Jay-Z‘s 40/40, sipping whiskey and, uh, ruminating on Kate Moss: “She’s too skinny.” It’s the coke, you bastard.

· E! says Brittany Gastineau is the next Paris Hilton, which makes sense after learning she’s picking up the hotel heiress’ leftovers, namely Backstreet Boy resuscitation Nick Carter.

· Only Access Hollywood‘s Billy Bush said “no” to Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie‘s publicists’ requirements that journos sign agreements not to ask about their personal lives. Bush writes in his blog: “To sign that agreement is to present yourself as a tool.” And no member of the Bush family will accept being called a tool, ya here?

· Katie Holmes has finally decided to “embrace” Scientology. The American public has yet to re-embrace Katie Holmes.
