Nicole Richie stars in #CandidlyNicole VH1 television series
Nicole Richie returns to reality, but will not be gracing the television screen. #CandidlyNicole will be a VH1 television series based on her AOL webseries. The series, which was based off of the reality-star-turned-designer's Twitter feed, grabbed the attention of VH1. #CandidlyNicole's eight half-hour episodes will premiere July 17 on VH1.
"Nicole's sharp, acerbic sense of humor and broad audience appeal make '#CandidlyNicole' a perfect fit for the VH1 brand," said Susan Levison, VH1′s EVP of Original Programming & Development. "Viewers will enjoy her unique point of view and earnest look at pop culture as well as her fearless exploration of anything and everything taboo."
According to AOL, "Nicole Richie brings her unfiltered sense of humor and unique perspective to life in a new series based on her irreverent Twitter feed. The show follows the outspoken celebrity as she shares her perspective on style, parenting, relationships and her journey to adulthood."
The first episode of the web series, titled Tramp Stamp, featured Richie attempting to get a tramp stamp tattoo removed. She has a black-inked cross, "going down the crack." She eventually gives up on her quest citing the time it would take to remove the tattoo is to long of a process to undergo.
Season one of the series has been released for the past year, consisting of 20 episodes with about five minutes of content per episode. You can check out the trailer for the webseries below for an idea of what to expect with the new reality television show:
