Paris Hilton has always been the prime prima donna on the set of E!’s “The Simple Life” — until now. Sources on set tell TMZ that this time around, Nicole also got all divalicious during taping of the show’s fifth season.

During the shoot, we’re told Nicole constantly showed up late, and upon swanning in would impose a deadline on producers, saying “You’ve got me for an hour or two.”

Our sources also say that Richie upped her unreasonable behavior to another level during the final shoot of the season, when the all-important “show open” was being taped. Nicole turned up “several hours late” with boyfriend Joel Madden, and then gave producers another impossible deadline. After a serious blow-out argument, we’re told producers had to call her agents just to get her to stay on-set.

According to Nicole’s rep, stories like these have been floated since production began. She says Nicole was a professional on the set and discrepancies in call and wrap times were par for the course. Nicole’s rep makes it clear that the season wrapped on time and on schedule.

Nice Hair!

Wow, Nicole Richie needs to eat some bon-bons or something. 

Okay – is it just me or does she look like crap…

The 25-year-old star revealed she has a number of exciting projects in the pipeline for when she finishes filming her reality show ‘The Simple Life’, including releasing a signature scent.

She told Britain’s OK! magazine: “I’m working on another book, plus I’m launching a jewellery and accessories line, a sunglasses line and my own perfume.”

Nicole – who has been at the centre of eating disorder rumours – is also looking forward to a well-earned break after a stressful few months.

She added: “I think I’m going to do some travelling. Summer is my favourite time of year, so hopefully I’ll also find time to just relax by the beach.

Last year, celebrity fragrances accounted for 23 per cent of the top 100 women’s fragrances in the US.

Nicole’s friend Paris Hilton is among a host of stars, including Sarah Jessica Parker, Victoria Beckham, Britney Spears and Kylie Minogue, who have already released their own signature scent.

Elizabeth Taylor was one of the first stars to launch her own perfume which has seen more than one billion sales since it hit shops 15 years ago.
