Fox Deems Richie Too Bitchie - UPDATED - TVgasm

by J-Unit

simple_breakupThe great thing about having a television weblog is that people start giving you tips and rumors. While there are many bogus rumors out there, we do have reliable sources. One of those sources tells us that Nicole Richie is being fired from The Simple Life. TVgasm hasn't commented on this show much since it's second season, but ever since the producers rid themselves of the pretense that anything on this show is spontaneous, it actually became enjoyable to watch.

We are still waiting for word on a possible replacement for Ms. Richie. Although we are all sure that Paris knows how to take care of herself solo, TVgasm wonders if perhaps it will make the show more enjoyable if she has a different partner each week.

UPDATE: More details of the split after the jump

Anyone in town can tell you their relationship has gotten more sour than the vomit aftertaste in Ms. Richies mouth. Nicole seems upset with Paris' unwillingness to grow up. Appearantly, Nicoles version of growing up means acting like a child to your friend who are unwilling to grow up. Oh the vortex of paradoxes and catch 22's and irony....um...ok I think I'm done with that tangent.

A result of treating your best friend slash Executive Producer of a show in which you co-star could result in your termination, which seems to be what has happened, or is currently happening.

A source close to one of the girls says that it is rumored a purported change for next season could have Paris going on adventures with A-list celbrities, celbutants and average Janes looking for a new best friend.

There's a neverending supply of loser folks to go with Paris. Just log on to her sidekick list for some ideas.

-Nikki Hilton
-Kimberly Stuart
-Lindsey Lohann
-Brittany Murphy

oh the possibilities.

I'm sorry, but Nicole Richie is funny and has got a sharp wit about her. She made the show. Paris Hilton is beyond vacant...she cannot carry a show by herself.

Slighly off topic, but I haven't watched The SL since season one, when nicole was kind of chubby. I saw some recent pictures, and she's really looking quite svelte these days.

How can you fire the STAR of the show? Nicole was the one who got the parties started and is in the middle of all the mischief. I laugh when she looks at someone funny. Watching Paris is like watching paint dry. Or watching brain decay. Methinks Paris is a bit jealous of Nicoles likeability factor.

I must concur: Nicole was the action. Paris was just along for the ride. If they turn this into a celeb ride-along it will pretty much be Cameron Diaz's show in America and without any extreme sportage.

Well, both girls originally signed for about seven seasons give or take a few, but they are not getting along anymore. Not sure about the Nicole getting fired rumors since I believe it was just announced that Fox is trying to woo Nicole and her fiance DJ AM (great name) to do their own version of Newlyweds. Nicole was always the star of The Simple Life with her personality, but now she is upstaging Paris with her looks and her cleaned up non-heroin classy routine, and Paris is getting jealous so the two aren't friends anymore. Now, if they can score Lindsay Lohan, I do pray her daddy makes some appearances, and I don't mean Bruce Willis/Christian Slater!

Hey, I think I had a bit of a psychic moment (kinda like MYL and B-side). In my post on this thread I mentioned Kimberly Stewart as a possible replacement for Nicole Richie - and look what I just read and reality blurred:

"The Insider reported yesterday that "the show's producers are considering Kimberly Stewart, daughter of singer Rod Stewart, as a potential replacement for Richie." Paris told E!, "I love the show and I just want to freshen it up and make it funner, and bring new things in. Its gonna be a big surprise. And everyone is going to be very excited and happy about it."

Hmm...maybe I should buy a lottery ticket today.

funner...thank God she's rich!

Nicole Richie is my idol and is the funnist on the SHOW!!! if they get rid of her it is going to be so BORING because Paris won't be able to carry her own show!! i hope they don't FIRE her. this is going to be the last time i watch if if they do!!!

Beyond striking a pose, Paris Hilton really has no talents and her 15 minutes of fame for being famous should have long been over. Nicole has musical talent, a great sense of humor and if she's broken off an association with Paris Hilton by gosh maybe she's smart besides.

I think nicole should do her own show on FOX to get back at Paris.

Without Nicole this show is nothing! If it really is true that they fired her then they should rethink their decision because I know for a fact that I won't be watching braindead Paris and attention-seeking Kimberly Stewart over fun and fiesty Nicole!!

I think that Nicole is awesome- she is a bad ass chick that won't take paris's shit- and paris gets pissed because she is so use to controlling everyone with her money and "power"- sorry bitch your cash can't solve this Boo Boo. I honestly think that her career is going down the shitter along with her look- hello get a new style- sluttly is outty.

as much as u like paris hilton i dont think she will be able to carry on a show by herself also i think that nicole really made the show becuase she would do things that were daring and wt.f did paris do laugh about it...if they were to get another person to fill nicoles spot i dun think the show will get alot of ratings i mean cmon ITS NICOLE RICHIE!!!!! ..prove me wrong

paris can't carry the show if it was tatoo on her 4 head + every female actress & singer under 30 in hollywood as her co-star... lets face it what paris brings 2 the show, its like gary coleman playing xxx... now what nicole has and brings is honesty,humor,real life bust your gut out laughter... take that 2 any hilton hotel and check that in under the name PARIS+show without-NICOLE= "A F L O P" AS YOUR NEW ARRIVAL

Why don't you people STAY OUT of my business? Geez, losers! Whoops, Tinkerbell just shat on my pants. Peace out!

paris is the show !!! nicole is always copying how paris talks. nicole is lame. im so happy to hear they are kicking her off.

"A source close to one of the girls says"

Gee, I wonder which one of the girls it could possibly be?

Whoever wrote this column has all the intelligence and charm of a hat full of faeces.

Paris is the best, but i think that she made a bad choice. Nicole and Paris are a team and they shouldn't be broken up. but Nicole has a man now and might need a break to be with him. I think that the Simple Life won't be the same. but i think paris and kimberly will make it great!

i love paris! i want to be her! she is my total idle! loves it!

paris doesnt love me because im hot

I love Paris and Nicole as a team! Paris made a bad choice because the show is nothing without Nicole and if it was Nicole firing Paris i think that the show wouldn't be as good if they were together. Sorry i am not gonna take sides i love u both!

Nicole is the F in fun and she makes the show enjoyable! if she isn't on it i am not going to watch it anymore paris is BORINGGGGGG

I luved them both on the simple life they r my idols the show will suck with nicole gone caus lets face it she's the funnier one and she's more interesting.

I think Nicole Richie is really HOTTTTT. She is what made the. Paris Hilton is nothing but a boring slut. Every week i tape the show and i watch it about a million times because i can't beleve some of the funny things Nicole does. It just hillarious. There WILL BE NO REPLACEMENT for Nicole in my eyes she has everything the show needs. She should make her own show that will top Paris' show. GO NICOLE RICHIE!!!!!!!!! :-)

i think paris is cool but without nicole the show's not gonna be funny anymore. it won't be worth watchin so i aint.

You guys rock...thanks for all the support and shit.

I'm thinking of starting my own show for sure.

..that'd be hot...
