They may have been stuck on a modest farm for 30 days, but the “Simple Life” pair is living large in every aspect. Celebutantes Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie drew a big audience–13 million viewers–for the reality show’s debut Tuesday. They scored even higher with 18- to 49-year-olds, ranking No. 1 in that group, according to Fox.
Richie will try to parlay her newfound fame into a music career, though she insists it’s a coinkydink. The daughter of R&B legend Lionel Richie compares her “sound” to a mix of Christina Aguilera and Fiona Apple. Okaaaay.
Richie hasn’t worked with any producers yet but says she has had offers.
Speaking of suitors, Hilton’s pooch, Tinkerbell, got knocked up. As Paris’ sister, Nicky, tells it, “She’s staying with our friend and got pregnant from a Pomeranian who is three times her size.”
Let’s hope there’s no amateur video of that.
