Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie are in agreement on how their initial falling out happened – a combo of poor communication skills and being in their 20s.

While talking to Alex Cooper on the “Call Her Daddy” podcast, the iconic duo looked back on their falling out while working on “The Simple Life.” Hilton said the craziness of their tabloid-making lifestyle definitely played a factor.

“Back then, the media was just so toxic and they loved starting feuds between people because obviously, that sold tabloids, so it was mostly just the media spinning things and creating drama that didn’t even exist, which was normal during the 2000’s,” she said. “They did it with everyone.”

Richie agreed that coupled with the fact the two were only in their 20s and still did not really know how to talk with one another led to their separation.

“It’s that combined with like,...

If you were an avid TV-watcher in 2005, you may remember that Nicole Richie and Paris Hilton suddenly stopped being friends, filmed their hit reality show The Simple Life separately, and were seemingly involved in a big feud.

Thankfully, the two stars patched things up, and have been friends again for years. In fact, they are returning to TV this week in a new special!

In a promo appearance on “Call Her Daddy,” Nicole and Paris opened up about their 2005 feud and what really happened.

Nicole shared that, in actuality, “nothing really happened.”

“Back then, the media was just so toxic and they loved starting feuds between people because, obviously, that sold tabloids,” Paris said. “So it was mostly the media just spinning things and creating drama that didn’t exist, which was normal in the 2000s. They did it with everyone.”

Because they were young,...

Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie spoke very candidly about their experience in the public eye during an interview with Glamour.

The celebrities have been close for years and recently reunited for a new reality special called The Encore. Ahead of its premiere this month, they looked back on their original reality series The Simple Life.

They also opened up about their experience being fixtures in the media and dealing with “traumatizing” negative coverage over the years.

About The Simple Life, Nicole said that they understood that the show “had a formula.”

“They would drop us off at our jobs, they would leave, we would mess it up, they would get mad, we would laugh, we were in skirts. It was entertainment. Both Paris and I are from LA. We understand,” she explained.

Paris added that she was “definitely” playing a character.

“When Nicole and...

Never question Nicole Richie’s devotion to her bees. The Beverly Hills homesteader — she was raising chickens and jarring her own honey long before the term “tradwife” was coined — is wrapping up a story about how her father, Lionel Richie, banished her beehive from his property when she makes the depth of her passion crystal clear.

This anecdote of the “All Night Long” singer’s unwanted insects is quirky and just revealing enough to be part of Richie’s chat show arsenal. I’ve heard it before, though not the part about what happened next. She didn’t relocate the bees to her own home. They went to live on their beekeeper’s property in the San Fernando Valley, which sounds a lot like the proverbial farm upstate. The bees are alive and thriving, I’m assured, and producing more of her small batch sweetener as we speak. But she...

That’s hot.

Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie, the power duo of early 2000s reality TV, are reuniting for the first time on camera more than two decades since The Simple Life first premiered in Peacock’s Paris & Nicole: The Encore, a three-part special, set to release on Dec. 12. The series, the trailer for which was released Wednesday, will follow them as they try to produce an operatic performance based on their song, “Sanasa.”

The BFFs became reality TV stars after The Simple Life debuted in 2003. It followed them in their early 20s visiting small rural towns across the U.S., showing the two socialites struggling to do things like farm work and serving meals in a fast-food restaurant. The show ran for three seasons on Fox, before being canceled in 2005. It was then followed by two additional seasons on E!, with the series ending in 2007. Hilton and Richie are now both 43 years old,...

Millennials, gather! Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie (Sill and Bill) are back, but this time they are far from living the Simple Life. Peacock has finally dropped the trailer to Paris & Nicole: The Encore trailer and it is everything we hoped for and more.

Paris and Nicole will arrive in time to save 2024. The Peacock reality series is a three-part reunion special that will drop on Peacock on Thursday, Dec. 12. Yes, all three episodes will be available to stream on release date. I know what you’re thinking, I also wish there were more episodes, but hey quality over quantity!

Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie are embarking on a new journey filled with personal history and artistic ambition as they aim to create an original opera — yes, an original opera — in the new trailer for their reunion special, Paris & Nicole: The Encore.

The three-part series finds the friends reuniting more than 20 years after the end of The Simple Life. The special will be structured around a very specific task: turning their wonderfully stupid nonsense song “Sanasa” into a full-fledged opera. Sanasa, for those wondering, is a cherished relic of the Simple Life days,...

Two reality-tv OGs are aiming to make arias “hot,” in a new trailer for Paris & Nicole: The Encore, a three-part special premiering Thursday, Dec. 12 on Peacock.

Specifically, and seemingly for real-ish, Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie want to adapt their “Sanasa” catchphrase into an actual opera — a lark that elicits all kinds of reactions in the trailer narrated by Alan Cumming (of Peacock’s The Traitors).

The three-part special, set to premiere on December 12, will document Hilton and Richie’s reunion as they try to produce an operatic performance based on their self-coined phrase, “Sanasa.”

Hilton and Richie became reality TV pioneers after starring in 2003’s The Simple Life, which had cameras follow the two socialites visiting small rural towns across the U.S. struggling to do menial jobs. The show ran for three seasons on Fox and two additional seasons on E!, ending its five-season run in 2007.

Dakota Fanning is reflecting on surviving the “fallen child actor” trope. The “Perfect Couple” star, who began acting at age six back in 2000, told The Cut that she endured being asked “super-inappropriate questions” during interviews when she was a kid.

“In interviews at a young age, I remember journalists asking me, ‘How are you avoiding becoming a tabloid girl?’ People would ask super-inappropriate questions,” Fanning said. “I was in an interview as a child and somebody asked, ‘How could you possibly have any friends?’ It’s like, ‘Huh?’”

Fanning added that she has “definitely felt this kind of vibe from people almost wanting me to fail or something” as she has been in Hollywood for almost 25 years.

“It makes you feel a little bit guarded,” she said of outgrowing (and outlasting) the stereotypes of being a child actor. “I’m just living my life over here.”

“The Challenge” and “Below Deck” aren’t mere TV shows; they’re practically the unscripted-tv version of cinematic universes, spanning multiple series that run for many years.

Which is a challenge in its own right for Julie Pizzi, who produces those franchises as president of Bunim/Murray and 51 Minds, two different production companies owned by French media giant Banijay.

“Betting on unscripted is a great bet because unscripted has a great price point, has such engagement with the audience, lots of fandom,” she said on the latest episode of the Variety podcast “Strictly Business.” “And I think that you can turn it over pretty quickly, while some of the scripted shows are so remarkable, where there’s so many scenes and so many locations that it just takes longer to create.”

When you think of the Hilton family today, you probably think of influencers such as Paris Hilton and Nicky (Hilton) Rothschild. You might even think of the extensive hospitality businesses somewhat owned by the family, Hilton Hotels Corporation, founded and created by Conrad Hilton in 1919.

Conrad Hilton is one of seven and was born in New Mexico in 1887 to parents Augustus Halvorsen Hilton and Mary Genevieve Laufersweiler. Conrad Hilton would ultimately begin what we know now as the Hilton Hotel Corporation.

Back in the late 90s, a handful of powerful Hollywood producers set out on what was then a very exciting venture for genre fans: Dark Castle Entertainment, a production company dedicated to making medium-budget horror movies with A-list casts. Inspired by the legacy of beloved 50s schlockmeister William Castle, Dark Castle was going to remake some of the producer-director’s most famous works, like House on Haunted Hill and 13 Ghosts, in addition to focusing on original material. These movies weren’t going to be cheapies like Castle’s were – they’d have substantial budgets for the genre, top-tier creative teams behind the camera, and recognizable faces from film and television in front.. It was an inspired idea, and though now we look back on the venture with bittersweet memories, Dark Castle definitely left its mark on the horror genre.

The Simple Life has gotten much sweeter for Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie in the two decades since the reality television series aired. For five seasons, the socialites took on low-paying, odd jobs that inadvertently set the difficulty level at an all-time high for two people who didn’t really need the résumé boost. Since then, Hilton and Richie haven’t spent much time building out their CV...

It has been more than 20 years since Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie’s The Simple Life premiered.

The Hilton family’s legacy is deeply rooted in the iconic hotel chain that graces every corner of the country with a history that reaches back generations.

In 1919, Conrad Nicholson Hilton laid the foundation that left an indelible mark on the hospitality industry. Although he passed away in 1979, his descendants have admirably carried on his extraordinary legacy.

Among the key figures is Barron Hilton, the uber-rich grandfather of famous socialites Paris and Nicky, who played a pivotal role as chairman and CEO of Hilton Hotels. He orchestrated a massive deal in 2007, selling the chain to the Blackstone Group for an astonishing $26 billion.

Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie are making a reality TV return. The former BFFs are reuniting to the surprise of fans. A new report revealed that they’re working on a new show. However, it will be different from the show they were known for. Read on to learn more.

Paris Hilton And Nicole Richie – Reunite

According to TMZ, Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie are returning to reality television. But the show has a different concept from the short-lived series, The Simple Life. The two have been coming up with various ideas for months. The show isn’t in production yet as it’s in “very early development.”

Production teams are interested in taking on this show. James Corden’s company Fulwell 73 received the full rights to the project. Fans took to X, formerly Twitter, to react to the news about Paris and Nicole’s return to reality TV.

Though our younger viewers may know her better for her friendship with Kim Kardashian, the spotlight shone brightly on Paris Hilton, especially in the early 2000s. But was she just “famous for being famous”, or is there more to this Paparazzi Princess?

Like her friend Kim, Paris Hilton’s fame was bolstered by the infamy that comes from being the star of a wildly popular

sex tape, 2004’s cleverly-titled 1 Night in Paris. “That’s Hot.” As with Kim Kardashian, questions remain even decades later about whether the video was released intentionally to capitalize on her growing fame. For her part, Paris has since denied consenting to the video’s release and has settled out-of-court for the damage to her image and reputation. Perhaps the grossest thing about the video (bear with me) is that it opens with a title card that says “In memory of 9/11/01… We will never forget.” Seriously.

Former Netflix Head of Comedy Jane Wiseman is joining Jane Featherstone and Liz Murdoch‘s Sister entertainment group in a newly created position as Head of U.S. Television. Based in Los Angeles, Wiseman will report to Cindy Holland, Sister’s Global CEO, and will lead the company’s U.S. television business, specifically focused on development and production of premium scripted series.

This is the second senior member of Holland’s executive team at Netflix, where she led original TV content for many years, that she has brought to Sister since joining the company in July. In October, Efrain Miron was named to another newly created position as President, Strategy and Business Affairs, with a focus on the U.S. studio and portfolio companies.

Building out Sister’s U.S. operation under Holland has been a major priority as the company is plotting further expansion and a path to profitability.

Nicole Richie has been a “diehard fan” of the 1991 cult comedy “Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead” for as long as she can remember.

“I’ve been quoting this movie my whole life,” she says.

And now, life has come full circle because the former “Simple Life” reality television icon stars in director Wade Allain-Marcus’ “Don’t Tell Mom” remake as fashion company boss Rose.

The new film stars Simone Joy Jones as Tanya, a 17-year-old whose summer plans are upended when her mom (“Ms. Pat” star Patricia Williams) checks herself into a health retreat. Things completely unravel when the babysitter, played by Oscar nominee June Squibb, hired to take care of Tanya and her siblings suddenly dies.

“When I heard it was going to be a remake, I was like, ‘What does this mean?’” she says. “So I jumped on a Zoom with Wade and he was like, ‘This...
