I'll admit, "Simple Life 2" is entertaining in small doses. I liked how they went to different states and were with different people. So, in small doses, it can be entertaining. But, Nicole Richie and Paris Hilton(especially Nicole) are so obviously putting on a "show" for the camera, it really gets tiresome. I really would be shocked if the producers didn't plan for the girls to do some of the "wacky things" they do. For instance, when the girls go into a Burger King, they order all this food and while one of them goes out to their pink truck to look for money, the other gorges themselves while still in line, having not paid for anything. That is one of the many scenes that had FAKE written all over it. First off, Burger King is one of their sponsors. Secondly, there are no other people in line. Thirdly, the manager doesn't stop them from eating their food before they paid for it (He does get kinda upset afterwards though, which is acted, most likely). Finally, the girls ask some guys for money and they pay for their meal. Now, why didn't they do that in the first place?
I honestly couldn't really stand too much of Paris and Nicole and I never really learned much about them. You just hear them use their little catch phrases and think of funny ways of getting out of doing work.
Bottom Line: Entertaining in some parts, but overall seems pretty phony.
C+
