Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie reunited for a nostalgic throwback episode on Call Her Daddy, marking a major pop-culture moment as the duo reflected on their 2000s heyday. Host Alex Cooper kicked off the episode, welcoming the iconic pair: "Nicole Richie and Paris Hilton, welcome to Call Her Daddy."
During the interview, Paris Hilton shed her pristine party-girl image to detail the darker, more chaotic side of her early fame. She opened up about her intense fear of hosting wild parties at her own home due to theft, her relentless clubbing schedule, and a terrifying paparazzi encounter. "Once I, I, I was hospitalized. I got crashed into," she recalled, highlighting the physical dangers of the era's media frenzy.
Yet, the episode wasn't all heavy reflection; it also captured the bizarre, lighthearted deceptions of early internet culture. Hilton laughed about her old AIM screen names like "BeautifulBlondeBabyGirl" and confessed to fabricating interests to impress guys, admitting she pretended to love the TV show The Wire when she first met Joel Madden. With both women now successfully balancing family life and business empires, this reunion serves as a victory lap for two survivors of the brutal 2000s tabloid machine.
