Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie Are Making an Opera

Don’t miss your chance to see Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie live at Vulture Festival, November 16-17 in Los Angeles. Get tickets here before they sell out!

Twenty-one years after they made legendary television by mildly terrorizing a small town in Arkansas on The Simple Life, Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie are reuniting for a three-episode miniseries, and it isn’t entirely what you’d think it would be. After four seasons of taking on blue-collar jobs (and one season of being professional interns), Paris & Nicole: The Encore will follow Hilton and Richie as they “try to produce a once-in-a-lifetime operatic performance based on their self-coined phrase, ‘Sanasa.’†It premieres December 12 on Peacock.

“Sanasa,†for those who have managed to wash the memory of it out of their ears over the past two decades, is a very catchy, stupid song the duo invented on season three that just goes, “Sanasa, sanasa, sanasa-sa sanasa†over and over again until they either get bored of it or are forced to stop. An entire “Sanasa†opera totally aligns with Hilton’s trollish sense of humor and Richie’s honest-to-goodness aptitude for musical comedy. A new teaser for the three-part reunion shows the two of them auditioning an operatic soprano and agreeing that “we’re really good at this.â€

Vulture readers and Paris & Nicole fans in the Los Angeles area can get a sneak-peek preview of The Encore at a live reunion with the duo themselves at this year’s Vulture Festival on November 17. Love it.
