AP: What is it about “The Simple Life” that fans have connected to?

Hilton: Just that it’s about two best friends who are together and I think people can relate to that, because everyone has a best friend. We have our secret languages and our secret looks to each other and we just have fun together. I don’t know. It’s hard to find a group who can be like that together.

Richie: I think that originally people thought “Oh, this is going to be about two spoiled blond girls that don’t know how to do anything and make fun of people,” and that’s not what it’s about. If anything, we’re making fun of ourselves. We’re very different. We’re very opposite, so it’s a good balance, you know, between the two...

AP: What has doing the show taught you about life and about each other?

Hilton: I’ve just been doing the show now five seasons so I’ve definitely, you know, learned a lot. I’ve traveled the world and met all these different families and different people and, I don’t know, just learning about other people. With Nicole, I’ve been best friends with her my whole life so I already knew everything about her. I don’t know, just that we can survive any situation and we can have fun no matter where we are as long as we’re together.

Richie: It’s funny because a lot of people, as close as they are, when you spend so much time with someone, it’s like you see habits that you know, you’re just like ugh, I can’t spend this much time with someone. But I love spending time with her and we have so much fun and, you know, I really just look at it as nothing but fun.

AP: How are your pending legal problems affecting your projects? (Hilton and Richie were each arrested for driving under the influence in the past year.)

Richie: We’re not talking about that.
