On a recent episode of The Ellen Degeneres Show, Nicole Richie made a guest appearance to talk about her experience working in a plastic surgery office. The crowd could not contain their excitement as Nicole made her entrance, wearing her signature Ugg boots and rocking out to some unknown music. Ellen, always the host to make her guests feel at ease, congratulated Nicole on her success and joked about how she feels partially responsible for it due to all the awards she hands out.
Ellen then delved into Nicole’s background, revealing that she is originally from England. Nicole shared that she moved to the U.S. at the age of 10, which was a difficult transition as she faced teasing for her English accent. She humorously mentioned how her comeback to the bullies was a simple “you American cheese”. Ellen empathized with Nicole’s struggles, sharing her own experience of being teased for her accent when she moved from New Orleans to Texas.
The conversation took a lighthearted turn when Ellen noticed that Nicole was only wearing one earring. Nicole explained that she prefers things to be a little off and non-uniform, and she pierced the earring herself with a big fat carpet needle. Ellen couldn’t help but express her shock at Nicole’s impromptu piercing, while Nicole jokingly stated that she wouldn’t do it again.
As the interview continued, Ellen and Nicole discussed their experiences with accents and how they have been mocked for their speech. Ellen proposed a racing competition outside, but due to the rain, it was postponed. Nicole mentioned her love for driving fast and expressed her willingness to race even in the rain.
They then changed the subject to Nicole’s adorable new puppy named Oliver. Nicole shared that Oliver is a white golden retriever and is exceptionally bright. She amusingly revealed that Oliver now fetches her a Kleenex whenever she sneezes, which left the audience in stitches.
The episode ended with a fun race between Nicole and Jamie Kennedy. Although Nicole emerged victorious, the race was a hilarious spectacle that had everyone laughing. As the show came to a close, Ellen teased upcoming guests and thanked Nicole for joining her on the show.
Nicole Richie‘s appearance on The Ellen Degeneres Show was packed with humor and entertainment. From discussing her English accent and self-pierced earring to sharing anecdotes about her puppy and participating in a rain-soaked race, Nicole kept the audience engaged throughout. This lively and fun-filled interview perfectly showcased the charm and wit of both Nicole Richie and The Ellen Degeneres Show.
