Amber has shot to superstar status playing Paris in the three-minute Paris in Jail: The Music Video, which has been viewed more than 7.4 million times on YouTube and MySpace since being posted.

Nailing the heiress' famous pout, Hawaiian-born Amber, who lived in Australia as a teenager, can't believe the popularity of the new video.

'It's such a surprise. We had no idea it was going to be so big,' the 19-year-old says. 'My agent's had so many calls. I've been reading for TV pilots - it's crazy. 'A lot of people are coming up to me on the street too. It's so cool,' Amber grins.

Stand-up comedians and Omovies.com co-founders Allan Murray and Sean Haines were inspired to create the hilarious clip after noticing the non-stop television and print media coverage of Paris' jail dramas.

Allan got the idea for the video while watching TV coverage of Paris' impending jail sentence. He noticed the broadcasters kept using clips from her Stars are Blind video.

'I kept hearing a song parody every time I heard that song on air,' he laughs. Once he had written the lyrics, he and Sean scrambled to assemble the production and find the perfect girl to play Paris. During casting, Amber told Allan: 'I know Paris - she'd probably think this is funny.' And Allan replied: 'You're hired!'

The actress says she met the socialite through mutual friends, and confesses it was easier to act like her because she knows her. 'Paris and I are acquaintances. I've been to her place and I've been able to party with her and get to know her, so that's all obviously helped me act like her on screen,' she says.

'The pout came fairly naturally - I think there are some similarities. It's funny, when we first met through friends, Paris said to me: 'We look a lot alike.' Amber even feels bad for the heiress and thinks she's been treated unfairly. 'They should have given her community service and a fine instead,' she says.

Of course, Amber is also very pleased with the turn her life has now taken and admits it's all thanks to the blonde socialite. 'People are obsessed with Paris,' Amber grins. 'She's pretty, famous and wealthy - everyone wants that.'

Luckily for Amber, the cheeky video has opened a lot of doors - she's just finished filming Surfer Dude with Matthew McConaughey. It's a dream come true for the budding starlet who wants to become a huge movie star. 'It's been amazing,' she smiles.
