The Simple Life is a totally unscripted series starring everyone's favorite spoiled socialites, Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie! During the shows first season, Paris and Nicole got a reality check when they learned what it was really like to live among the middle-class as they moved from their posh Beverly Hills pads to the small town of Altus, Arkansas (population 817) for a one-month stay. Paris and Nicole were horribly inept at their jobs, which were the first they had ever had-including gigs at a dairy farm and a fast-food joint. But pretty soon they were up to their old tricks, picking up guys and causing mischief along the way, all in an effort to spice up the lives of their small town family and to win the hearts of the town's simple, kind-hearted residents. In the end, the girls survived the challenge, and most certainly served to prove that you can take the girl out of the city, but you can't take the city out of the girl!

  • 2003-12-03T01:00:00Z21m

The girls move into the farm where we meet their hosts, the Ledding family. They freak out over chicken plucking and the enormous tick in their bedroom overtop a well. The dad lays down the rules but when have the Hiltons ever obeyed them? And both girls decide the oldest son deserves a little reminder of this trip.....

Paris and Nicole learn what it means to work for a living when they get their first jobs -- milking cows at Danny's Dairy Farm.

Fresh off their failure as dairy-farm workers, the girls take a job at a fast-food joint, only to find that serving the public is their private nightmare.

To get the town to know them better Paris and Nicole (with the help of the mayor) become co-chairman of the annual town festival--obviously things do not go well. Plus, Paris gets her dog certified over at the town hall, making sure the dog is healthy.

The girls work for this cattle auctioneer. He has them go to the feed store to pick up some feed. Nicole decides to charge a few extra things to his account. A folding mirror and a $120 birdhouse to give to the lady they are staying with for Mother's Day. The man finds out and comes to talk to them.

The ladies get jobs at a gas station-food mart (and bait shop), and soon reel in two local boys as customers, whom they'll accompany to a club. In so doing, they'll stay out beyond their curfew, and in a number of ways they'll pay.

In the finale, the girls are prodded to pack their pricey bags after Nicole's barroom hissy finally gets Janet's goat. Not that they've been model citizens anyway. Having insulted locals and avoided labor since day one, it's a safe bet that few folks will be missing Misses Richie and Hilton once they're gone.
