Cancelled: Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie's "The Simple Life"

You won't have Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie to kick around anymore. At least on the E! Network. Their reality series The Simple Life will not be picked up next season. A source at E! tells Us Weekly Magazine that overexposure is to blame for the show's cancellation.

"We felt like the real life drama of their lives overshadowed anything happening on the show," says the insider. "Viewers would see Paris all day long on the news about her going to jail, so they didn't care about seeing her camping with kids. It just was too played out."

This might be a shocker, Paris was the professional of the two. The source adds that Richie became increasingly difficult to work with last season. "Paris carried the show. She was the one willing to do anything," says the source. "Nicole was the diva."
According to The Insider, the show could get a second chance at life if another network decides to pick up the series (the show's first season debuted on the Fox network before later being picked up by E!).
