E! Gives New 'Life' To Hilton, Richie Feud
LOS ANGELES (AP) ―
Fans of "The Simple Life" will be seeing more of ex-friends Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie. E! Entertainment Television will air a fifth season of the reality-style series, which shows the tabloid-ready celebutantes thrown into everyday situations with real people, the network announced Tuesday.
The show moved to E! after Fox declined to air a fourth season. A new format allows the feuding friends to have nothing to do with each other.
"The Simple Life — 'til Death Do Us Part," which airs Sundays (10 p.m. EDT), has Hilton and Richie — in separate scenes, of course — playing a "wife" and running a household.
In one episode, Hilton characterized the two as "complete opposites."
"I'm the nice one, she's the evil one," she said.
