Twenty years since their initial television splash altered the pop culture conversation, Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie are bringing a new project to Australian audiences. Their latest television venture, titled ‘Paris & Nicole: The Encore’, is set for its Australian debut on 7Bravo and the 7plus streaming service. The special airs Tuesday, April 22nd, beginning at 8:30 pm.
This return marks a distinct chapter for the long-time friends. The central focus appears to be an unusual creative goal: mounting an operatic performance inspired by “sanasa,” a phrase the pair made their own years ago. The special aims to update followers on their current lives and friendship, framed through this specific, ambitious production attempt. Expect the familiar mix of humour and unpredictable moments associated with the duo.
The program comes from Fulwell 73 Productions. Both Hilton and Richie serve as executive producers alongside Ben Winston, Sarah Dilistone, JJ Duncan, Emma Conway, Bruce Gersh, Bruce Robertson, Michael Baum, and Carrie Franklin. David Downey and Ashley Baumann-Sylvester are credited as co-executive producers, guiding the production’s shape.
For followers of the pair since their early reality TV days, this special presents a curious evolution. Moving beyond the fish-out-of-water scenarios of their past work, ‘The Encore’ hinges on whether Hilton and Richie can pull off this self-set musical challenge.
