Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie are ready to bring a little ‘sanasa’ to the world with Peacock’s Paris & Nicole: The Encore, their first project together since their reality show The Simple Life ended in 2007. What’s ‘sanasa’? It’s a song and phrase the longtime friends created as kids and popularized on Simple Life. Now they’re bringing it back and turning it into an opera on Encore. “I know this is just going to make people laugh, have fun, be nostalgic, and then just celebrate our friendship and our amazing song,” Hilton says. While Richie says, “you can't do Simple Life again,” she does say now “felt like the right time... we really loved doing that show.” In addition to the opera, the famous pair also revisit some old jobs in Arkansas, like their time at Sonic. (And in a full circle moment, the pair now have drinks named after them at the fast-food chain.) “I think that there is a part of our friendship that the show ended up showing that people connect to,” Richie says. As for this new special, Hilton is just glad to do something positive for their fans. “It's been such a crazy past couple years, and I just feel like the world needs more joy.”
