AceShowbiz - Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie reflected on their time on the former Fox series, "The Simple Life", ahead of the premiere of their new Peacock series, "Paris & Nicole: The Encore". Hilton addressed the viral moment where she said "What is Walmart?" after Richie said she heard that "people hang out" at the retail chain.
"That was just me pretending to be the character. I knew what it was," Hilton clarified. "We wanted it to be entertaining. We come from Hollywood. We were basically just playing into what we knew that the audience would want."
Hilton also looked back on another iconic moment where she used an iron to cook bacon and mopped on a Segway. "That was hilarious and so much fun," she said. "It makes it a lot more fun to be mopping the floor if you are on a Segway, because then you're kind of floating throughout the house."
Richie also clarified a past moment from the show when she spilled and vacuumed someone's remains while working at a funeral home.
"Well, for the record, they were not real ashes," she said. "I guess that's my overall takeaway. They were not real ashes. I would be traumatized if I really did spill someone's ashes."
Despite the misconceptions, Hilton and Richie look back on their time on 'The Simple Life' fondly. "Reuniting for our new series was so much fun," Hilton said. "It really made my summer," Richie added. "I knew that every day was going to be filled with laughter and excitement."
