Founding mothers of reality TV as we know it today, Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie did something spectacular when their breakout show, The Simple Life, hit screens back in 2003. The show ran for five seasons, drawing to an end in the summer of 2007. The duo's iconic scenes sparked a number of international remakes, but truthfully, nothing else was quite up to the mark. Lucky for us, Sill and Bill are back, with the long-awaited Paris & Nicole: The Encore. We know what you’re thinking: “That’s hot”.
The Simple Life followed the two wealthy heiresses through their life in temporary blue-collar jobs – kicking off the first season working and living on a family farm in Altus, Arkansas. Paris and Nicole gave up their cellphones and credit cards, and iconic, comedic moments ensued. In the seasons that followed, the socialites travelled in a pink pickup truck participating in various activities, engaged in internships on the East Coast, alternated in a wife role (similar to Wife Swap) with different families, and worked as counselors at Camp Shawnee. Revolutionary back in the early Noughties, almost every scene of The Simple Life came with a memorable mishap, quote or outfit.
