Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie address their former feud over 20 years after The Simple Life debuted
As I delve into the rollercoaster ride that is the friendship between Nicole Richie and Paris Hilton, I can’t help but marvel at their resilience and the sheer magnitude of their shared history. From their humble beginnings on The Simple Life to their recent reunion for a new reboot, it’s clear that these two ladies have been through it all – from feuds and reconciliations to opera performances and inside jokes that span decades.
20 years since their debut on the popular reality show “The Simple Life,” Nicole Richie and Paris Hilton have struck a pose once more, this time for an exclusive editorial in W Magazine.
In a stunning photoshoot, Nicole (age 43) and Paris (also age 43) exuded elegance for the yearly edition of the magazine’s The Originals collection.
The stars, who have been friends since they were two years old, also touched on their year-long feud that took place in 2005.
In my perspective, I’ve always viewed our longstanding friendship as resilient enough to weather minor hiccups. Indeed, just like Nicole put it, this recent misunderstanding could be considered a mere blip in the grand scheme of things. Paris echoed this sentiment, stating that perhaps the world is overemphasizing the importance of this incident compared to its actual significance.
Friends who share a special bond will come together once more on your screens, in the series titled “Paris & Nicole: The Encore”. This delightful production is set to premiere only on Peacock, but as of now, no specific release date has been announced.
In a recent interview with W, the journalist Kyle Munzenrieder questioned whether the 2005 dispute between them had been resolved or touched upon in the latest version of the show.
Nicole mentioned that there wasn’t a specific meeting between Will Smith and Aunt Viv, as it might have been for fans who followed ‘The Simple Life’, a significant aspect. During one entire season, they didn’t film together.
However, despite this incident, our lives are deeply intertwined in many aspects beyond it. Over nearly four decades, we’ve built and nurtured our relationship. Therefore, for us, this might have been just a minor setback.
Paris stated, “Back then, the media loved stirring up disputes among individuals and sensationalizing or fabricating tales for tabloid sales.
She went on saying, ‘It seemed like the whole world was overreacting to it more than necessary. Nicole has been my closest friend ever since we were just toddlers. To me, she’s like a sister.’
Their conflict arose during the pinnacle of their popularity, largely due to their reality show “The Simple Life,” which transported the socialite from the luxurious lifestyle in LA to less lucrative roles across America.
Season one debuted on December 2, 2004, cementing their status as celebrities.
Due to the high demand for the shoe, it resulted in the commencement of its second season on June 16, 2004, followed by the beginning of its third season on January 25, 2005.
Reports suggesting a rift between longtime friends Paris and Nicole surfaced in April 2005, following Paris’s statement expressing interest in having Kimberly Stewart as her co-star instead.
In a subsequent statement, Paris clarified the rift between herself and Nicole: ‘There’s no denying that we’re not on friendly terms anymore. Nicole is aware of her actions, and that’s as much as I care to discuss about it.’
During that period, an informed source from People revealed to the magazine that Nicole felt envious because Paris had been asked to host Saturday Night Live in February 2005 and was garnering more media coverage than her.
At a gathering she hosted, it was alleged that the insider saw Nicole playing Paris Hilton’s 2003 sex tape. However, Nicole’s representatives have refuted this claim.
A different report suggests that the conflict between them began as Nicole started maturing and moved away from her party-loving lifestyle, preferring to spend more time with her partner, Adam Goldstein.
Paris and Nicole primarily film season four separately; filming took place in summer 2005.
In November 2005, Nicole addressed their feud during a Today Show appearance.
Nicole mentioned that her friendship with Paris had faded over time, and what originally seemed small had grown into something more substantial than it initially appeared.
Nicole added that ‘It’s just not part of my life.’
The star was asked if she would talk to Paris if they ran into each other, to which Nicole said no.
A little over a year since their apparent falling out, Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie seemed to have reconciled by sharing a pleasant dinner together in October 2006.
2007 saw Nicole revealing to Harper’s Bazaar that their reconciliation occurred following Paris’s email on the occasion of her 25th birthday. This exchange eventually led to a face-to-face meeting and resolving their differences.
Regarding Paris’s comments about her during their disagreement, Nicole stated to W Magazine: “It’s hard for me to be angry at her for speaking negatively about me. After all, we were in a dispute! Our argument was heavily sensationalized by the media. A lot of it wasn’t even genuine.
In my professional opinion as a lifestyle expert, I once shared with W Magazine that our disagreements were senseless. We allowed ourselves to be swayed by rumors circulating in this town. Regrettably, people here can be deceitful and attempted to drive a wedge between us. This experience left me feeling more disheartened than any breakup with a romantic partner, as it was like enduring the most miserable sensation imaginable.
In the year 2007, the fifth and concluding season of The Simple Life made its appearance on TV, marking the reunion of the pair for another round of filming.
Their new and upcoming Simple Life reboot – Paris & Nicole: The Encore – was something the ladies came up with organically.
In August, the pals were seen filming the reboot at a Sonic Drive-In in California.
Last year during the holiday season, Nicole shared that she exchanged texts with Paris and discussed how it marked the 20th anniversary of their reality show “The Simple Life.
Nicole jokingly asked her if they should do something in celebration of the 20 year anniversary.
Nicole stated, “We let it soak, and it seemed perfect. Initially, no one else was a part of the process.
Paris said that it was ‘perfect timing,’ after years of getting approached to reunite.
‘Every time I’m with Nicole, I feel like we’re teenagers again,’ Paris said.
In the forthcoming restart, Paris and Nicole will perform an opera that Nicole claims originated from their private joke.
At age seven, they penned a tune titled “Sanasa,” which later turned into an inside joke for them, eventually getting mentioned on The Simple Life.
‘What people need, even though they don’t know it yet, is for Sanasa to be an opera.’
They jokingly said that they plan on having a special for the 50th anniversary in the future.
In the forthcoming program, Nicole expressed her eagerness to participate alongside her friend, sharing laughter and enjoying themselves mutually.
Paris said that her and Nicole together is ‘magic,’ and just ‘so much history behind it.’
‘For the opera, we invited hundreds of fans from around the world to come and watch. It was special to hear what an impact Nicole and I had on them,’ Paris added.
