Paris Hilton Confirms New Reality Show with Nicole Richie and Certifies Jimmy a "Bad B*tch"

-Paris Hilton, welcome back to the show. You look fantastic, as always. The album is out officially at midnight. Right now, it's out. [ Cheers and applause ] "Infinite Icon." Pink vinyl. How rad is this? -So sick. -It is sick. -Iconic. -How are you? How is the family, by the way? -The family is doing great. I brought the kids to New York. -Are they loving it? You have the most beautiful babies. -Thank you. -Congratulations. I have a picture right here of you and Carter, and there's Phoenix in London. Look at these babies! Look at these babies! Oh, come on! -They are my world. -Last time you were here, I was saying, "Is your baby's first word going to be 'mama' or 'dada'?" And backstage, you were telling me it was neither. -Well, first it was "yass." -That's right. -And now he's learned a new song that Nicole Richie and I wrote when we were about 6 years old. -Don't even tell me. -♪ Sanasa, sanasa ♪ -He does not do "Sanasa." -He doesn't do the whole thing, but he does the beginning. He goes, "Sana." -Oh, he does? -Yeah. -♪ Sanasa, sanasa ♪ ♪ Sanasa, sanasa ♪ -Yes. -Dude, I love you and Nicole Richie. I actually know a little secret. Can we say about this, that you're doing something on Peacock later this year? Can I say anything about it or no? -We can give a little juice on the situation. -You and Nicole Richie are back. -Yes. We're back. [ Cheers and applause ] It's been so much fun. -That's insane. It was great? It turned out -- It was fun? -Just when I'm with Nicole, we just become teenagers again. And we were working at Sonic. We went back to Arkansas, visited the family and everyone. No way. -Yeah. -You went back to the same -- -Yeah. It was so special. -And you worked at Sonic again? -Yes. -Here's you working at Sonic. This is back in 2003. -Mm-hmm. -And then here's you and Nicole at Sonic, 2024. -Yeah. -And that's a great costume. Poor... [ Laughs ] I love that she did that. -It was so hot out that day, too. I was like -- That was hardcore. -It's hardcore, yeah. -But so funny. -She's a good sport, man. She's so funny. When you guys first started "A Simple Life," did everyone go like, "Oh, yeah, this is going to be a hit"? -Well, my mom and sister were like, "You're crazy," because they wanted my sister and I to do it originally. Nicky said, "Hell no." -Yeah. -So I thought of like, "Who would be the perfect person?" I was like, "Nicole." We've been doing everything since we were 2 years old together. And it was -- After my mom watched it, she was like, "Actually, I was wrong for once." -Oh, for once? Yeah, she really admitted it. -She's very proud of me. -And it had a major, big cult following comeback, I think, during COVID or something like that. Everyone was watching that, and I'm like, "I love that everyone's watching 'Simple Life.'" Like, when it first came out, it was, like, before, really, reality shows were out there. -The real OGs. -It was the OGs, yeah. -Just everything about it just had such a effect on pop culture. -Yeah. Tonight's a big show for us. The NFL season just kicked off. -Yes. -And I wasn't quite aware of this, but you were quite the athlete here. -I was. -This is you on the hockey team? You played hockey? -Yes, I did. [ Cheers and applause ] I actually -- I learned how to ice-skate next door, at Rockefeller Center. -Did you really? -Mm-hmm. And then I found out that my high school was doing the ice-hockey tryouts. I was like, "I think I could be good at this." -And you were? -Yeah. -That's fantastic. -Mm-hmm. -But, look, you started off on the hockey team and then you end up with "Infinite Icon." It's out. -Yes. [ Cheers and applause ] So proud. -I'm so happy you did this. So, why did it now feel like the right time? -I just feel that I've always loved music so much and I just thought it was perfect timing, just with releasing my documentary, "This Is Paris," and then my memoir right after. And now this is, like, my third part of me telling my story through my music. -Yeah. And good for you. I know one of my favorites, one of everyone's favorites -- it's executive-produced by Sia. -Yes. -I mean, Sia is one of the best to ever do it. I mean, how did -- Did you guys know each other for a while? -We've been friends for a couple years, and then, when Miley asked me to sing "Stars Are Blind" on New Year's Eve with her, Sia and I flew home together on the plane the next day, and she said, "Why have you not released another album? You were incredible last night. You were born to be a pop star." And I just said, "I'm busy. I'm doing a million other things." And she said, "Well, what if I was the executive producer and wrote it with you?" And, like, how can you say no to that? -Oh my gosh! I mean, that's amazing. -Yeah. -I love Sia. Congrats. -I love her. -Does new album possibly mean maybe a Paris Hilton tour? -Yes. -What?! -Yeah. The past couple weeks, I've been doing just a bunch of rehearsals with my choreographer and my dancers. So we're gearing up for the tour. -Paris, you're unbelievable. Oh, my God. -Yeah. -Good for you. -Thank you. -That's unbelievable. You do have a new music video out for your song "BBA." -Yes. -What does "BBA" mean? -"BBA" stands for "Bad Bitch Academy." -Oh, yeah. -Yeah. It's my new song, and I just wanted to make the ultimate bad-bitch anthem. And I actually brought you something tonight. So, Jimmy, you're now an honorary bad bitch. and you have -- [ Cheers and applause ] -Wow, wow. -And here's your degree to prove it. -I didn't think I was gonna cry tonight, but... Wow. This is -- Oh, my gosh. This is unbelievable. It says, yeah, "Faculty of the Department of Club Life, on recognition of outstanding contributions to the field of late-night hosting, we hereby confer upon Jimmy Fallon, BBA, the degree of very bad bitch." Wow! -Yeah. [ Cheers and applause ] -I will cherish this. It's gonna go right up right now in my house. -Yes. -I love you. Paris Hilton, everybody. "Infinite Icon" is out now. We'll be right back with a performance from Miranda Lambert. Stick around, everybody.
