Nicole Richie Reflects on ‘The Simple Life’ Beginnings
Richie appeared on “The Drew Barrymore Show” in April 2024 to promote her new movie “Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead”, and during the interview, Barrymore asked her all about her time on “The Simple Life”.
“So crazy,” Richie said after Barrymore pointed out that it had been 20 years since the show premiered. “The first thing that comes to mind is just being in my 20s and being able to blindly walk on. The way the show was pitched to me was Paris calling me and saying ‘Fox wants to take us somewhere but I actually don’t know where but would you ever want to do this show? We don’t know where we’re going, we don’t know what we’re doing, I have no information, do you want to do it?’ and me being like, ‘Okay.'”
