In the early 2000s, the heiress was Nicole Ritchie the co-conspirator by Paris Hilton. She has calmed down a lot since then.getty/watson

Human beings

Paris Hilton’s former travel companions have changed a lot since the escapades of the two heiresses in the early 2000s and their reality TV show. The daughter of Lionel Ritchie, 42, now spends her time pampering her chickens and – above all! – prepare banana bread to take to her two children. The actress told all this to The Wall Street Journal. We summarize it for you… in punchlines.

How time flies, Nicole! How have you been since last time? What do you have to tell us?

“I should start this interview by saying I’m a virgin”

Okay, great… So what?

“So routines are very heavy in my life”

Ah! Speaking of routine, when does your day start?

“I get up at 05:30 every morning”

Oh no!

“I’m an early riser.”

It is the case to say. Your first move tomorrow?

“The first thing I do is brush my teeth”

Good reflex, that helps. After that?

“Then I read”

But still?

“I drink black coffee”

Ah! In fact, we are all the same.

“We make coffee here”

Guess I also have a coffee machine…

“Mornings are the craziest time at home, between 07.00 and 08.30, it’s a big rush”

You’re really just talking nonsense, Nicole. Don’t you have anything more interesting to tell us?

“I wake up at 05.30 just to have some alone time”

Do you like being alone?

“On Sundays I make pastries”

That wasn’t the point, Nicole, but so be it. What do you like to cook?

“Muffins, banana bread or something.”

My my my

“So everyone can grab something to eat and leave”

And you leave yourself alone, right?

“I train a combination of pilates and circuit training three times a week”

Nicole, you’re changing the subject again. Anything else you want to tell us about yourself while we’re at it?

“I’m a List Maker”

But no Nicole, you’re an actress.

“I’ll keep the receipts”

What do you mean by receipts? Do you do accounting?

“By receipts I don’t just mean grocery receipts, I mean emotional receipts”

I still don’t understand.

“I’m a homebody who doesn’t always give the impression of being a homebody”

Damn Nicole, you are talking nonsense. Be specific.

“I’m always on time”

Ah, well, we understand you!

“Actually, I’m a bit early, because I don’t want people to call me and ask me where I am.”

Everyone has their own phobias. Let’s talk about your books. Do you plan to write another one?

“I could, but I used a ghostwriter for the first two. If I ever wrote another book, I’d write it myself.”

Good initiative. Let’s talk about your father. Saint Lionel. How is he?

“He is someone who is very present”

Present, how?

“He looks people in the eye, he listens to them, he says hello to everyone and really makes people feel seen”

Nicole and Paris, on the set of The simple life.

It’s called good manners, but hey. Otherwise, as one of the very first reality TV stars, what do you think of the whores now on TV?

“The good thing about doing ‘The Simple Life’ was that it didn’t really have much to do with our everyday lives”

Oh well no, that’s the principle.

“It was about leaving our lives for 30 days and living someone else’s life”

Yes, the poor life of the poor. What do your kids think of your early 2000s style?

“My daughter asked me if I had one of my Juicy tracksuits [Couture] that I could offer him

The famous Juicy Couture tracksuit in peach skin.

The famous Juicy Couture tracksuit in peach skin.

And then? Did you give it to him?

“She was devastated when I told her they were long gone”

Us too, Nicole, us too.
And your husband?

“Well, I’m in the middle of a rewatch of ‘Scandal'”

We’re talking about your husband, Nicole,
not from you.

“Last night Joel came into the room and tried to get me to change the channel in the middle of the episode”

The bastard!

“So we’re going through a bit of a difficult time.”

We understand you. Leave him immediately.

“Things are tense”

A little advice?

“You should let your spouse watch the shows they want”

We will pass it on to him. And if not, what is it like to have an assistant all the time?

“Anything that requires something online is something I just can’t do”

But you still do things on your own?

“I make all my appointments myself”

Wow! And otherwise?

“I like spending time with my animals, my chickens”

Fascinating.

“I love to cook for my family”

zzz…

“I like watching erotic thrillers”

Ah!

“And the romantic comedies of the 90s”

Nicole, make a small effort.

“I like to watch horror movies all year round”

Okay, let’s talk horror movies… What’s your favorite?

“I’m most emotionally attached to ‘Freddy: Nightmare,’ because it’s the one I grew up with.”

A bit like everyone else, in short. I would have done better to interview my cousin…

“To this day, I’m still scared of Freddy Krueger.”

It’s still not very original, Nicole. If not, what is your most prized possession?

“My Hairpins”

Huh?

“I’m not going anywhere without them”

But why?

“I have curly hair”

Pffffff… Okay, and if not, what do you like to throw around?

“I don’t know if it’s madness itself…”

Tell us all…

“…But I like going to the store to buy books”

I want to cry.

“And there are some things from Erewhon”

The super bohemian high-end supermarket chain? For what?

“For a mum with two teenagers on the go all the time, they really pack fruit and veg in a very practical way”

If you say so… Not even the clothes? I don’t know… Louboutins? A pretty Chanel bag?

“I go to exchange meetings where I get t-shirts, down jackets, denim jackets”

Damn Nicole, you depress me. Do you still have rats?

“The newest addition to our family is our cat, Lavender Bumblebee”

“Lavender hops”? Are you looking forward to me?

“I called it myself. No one agreed, but it really looks like her, so I’m glad I kept it.”

Speaking of good advice… Which one has guided you throughout your life?

“A Lesson My Mother Taught Me”

Tell us.

“You should never leave the house without lotion”

Are you kidding?

“I thought everyone was wearing lotion. I was very shocked as I got older to find that some of my friends, including my husband, left the house without lotion.

Words fail me, Nicole.

“It gives me chills.”

And therefore I…

“I never thought we could do something like this, it’s scarier than Freddy Krueger”

Thank you, Nicole. That would be all for today.
