Girl Gets Her Ride Pimped, Then Carjacked
An urban legend has been circulating about Pimp My Ride, the MTV show on which people get surprised by having their raggedy hoopties (read: old cars) transformed into tricked-out pimp-mobiles. I'll let this poster from the Elle.com forums describe the rumor, since she does it so much better than I could:
okay remember the beloved episode of the girl Nile with the pink cadillac and they put the river in the back her car. i think it was like episode 2 or something. i was told that she was car jacked and killed like 6wks after the show aired. did anyone else hear this? i searched the internet looking for this and i did see it posted somewhere else but you chicks are usually up on stuff like this, so did someone else hear this or am i just the last person to find out? that is so sad!
So was Nile the victim of carjackers? No. At least, if she was, it hasn't been reported anywhere in the news. Another poster on Elle.com claims to be Nile's friend and assures everyone that she's still alive, but who knows if that person really knows Nile. Anyway, I'd classify this rumor as yet another of the perils-of-sudden-fame-and-being-too-ostentatious variety.

Uh, "and they put the river in the back her car"?
This sounds like a more interesting legend than the car-jacking thing.

I remember that episode - because she was called Nile they put a water feature in the back seat, behind plexiglass (or something like that). It wouldn't have surprised me if someone had stolen the car but this sounds a bit over-dramatic.

Once I spilled a crock-pot full of Chilli in the back hatch of my station wagon. I told my piano teacher about it after it happened, 6 years later, he still tells his other students this story. It's a hillarious story when he tells it, & of course he lets me remain anonymous...but it was not cool when it happened. My ride was "hot". =o)

The river in the back of the car was a mini plastic water fountain, but they called it a river.

With a zillion MTV viewers: If she got killed I'd say it would attract at least some attention. Maybe just from the gossip papers, but some.

I'm gonna put a bar in the back of my car and drive myself to drink.
