It appears that Nicole Richie is still deeply in character after her latest performance as a super chic fashion exec.

The Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead actress, 42, stepped out in a sexy little black dress on Tuesday as she promoted the upcoming BET+ remake on The Drew Barrymore Show in New York City.

She sported a black crisscross halter dress that hugged her figure, paired with a black leather belt featuring a gold buckle.

Richie let her shoulders breathe as she draped an oversize black leather jacket down to her elbows.

The Simple Life alum also put on a leggy display in black hose and matching leather pumps.

She finished the ensemble with a pair of thick black wayfarer sunglasses and gold earrings.

Richie stars as fashion boss Rose Lindsey in the upcoming remake of the 1991 dark comedy Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead.

'I've been a Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead fan since day one; having the opportunity to play Rose is a dream come true,' she told Entertainment Weekly. 

Simone Joy Jones plays Tanya Crandell (a surrogate for the character originated by Christina Applegate), a teen girl tasked with taking care of her siblings for the summer after their mother leaves town and the sitter unexpectedly dies.

Lying about her age and experience, Tanya ends up as the executive assistant to Rose, who was originally played by Joanna Cassidy.

Richie and Cassidy, 78, were both present at the movie's Los Angeles premiere last week.

She told Today that her kids' teenage years have been her 'favorite stage' of parenting so far. 

'I just so clearly remember being 16 that it's actually surprising how quickly I can go back there,' said Richie.

'I remember first and last names, so it's fun. It's wild. And just the best.'

Nicole's dad Lionel Richie and his girlfriend Lisa Parigi also showed up to cheer on his daughter at the premiere, posing together on the red carpet.  

'Everyone came, the whole fam came. It was very sweet,' she said on Today.
