Simple Life Future Uncertain

With Paris Hilton’s new jail sentence, reports are circulating that the future of the upcoming season of The Simple Life, starring Paris and our girl, Nicole Richie, is up in the air. Star News Online reports
Paris Hilton’s pending jail stint is surely going to muck up promotional plans for the launch of E!’s The Simple Life.
No one at E! will talk about it publicly, but so far they’re keeping scheduled appearances in place for the scandal-scarred duo of Hilton and Nicole Richie.
As of Wednesday, Hilton and Richie were scheduled to appear on the June 6 edition of CBS’ Late Show With David Letterman. And Hilton alone is booked for Live With Regis & Kelly on June 7.
Insiders said the bookings were still set, but no one would be surprised if she bailed.
That’s because, unless her appeal works, Hilton will be wearing prison threads by then.
“Production for The Simple Life Goes to Camp wrapped in early April and will premiere Memorial Day, Monday, May 28, on E!,” is all a network spokesman said in a statement. “We wish Paris all the best as she deals with this difficult time.”
Does this mean that Nicole will do the promotion circuit alone? Will they — gasp! — cancel or delay the upcoming season? I guess that all depends on what happens at her own hearing, scheduled for June 3!
