Nicole Richie Signs Copies Of Priceless At Borders

Designer, socialite, reality personality and author Nicole Richie cheerfully promotes her book "Priceless" at Borders in NYC, NY on September 28, 2010 where the happy mom signed copies for her awaiting fans.

Nicole Richie's Style Takes Cues from Life

For several years now, Nicole Richie has been drawing attention with her celebrity clothing style. She says that her style has evolved as she's gone through her 20s. The 28-year-old mother of two toddlers, who is the daughter of 70s and 80s R&B sensation Lionel Richie, says, "When I look back at old photos, I'm able to laugh at myself in the same way I can show my dad a picture of himself when he was in The Commodores with the afro and the bell bottoms."

Nicole is the designer of jewelry and other fashion accessories, and she is engaged to Joel Madden. With so much going on, she says she doesn't have time to devote to worrying about fashion style. She recommends a good wardrobe of jackets, because even tossed on over jeans they make an outfit look put together.

Nicole and Joel Are Engaged!

Nicole Richie and Joel Madden are finally engaged! Nicole made the announcement Monday night while appearing on 'The Late Show with David Letterman'.

She confirmed on her Twitter page, "Yep. I'm engaged. Very happy. Yeah we've been engaged for a while so your all kind of late on that. But Thanks for the hooplah all the same."

Nicole Richie, best known for starring alongside Paris Hilton in 'The Simple Life', and Joel Madden of Good Charlotte have been dating for three years. The recently engaged couple have two children together - 2 year-old daughter Harlow and 5 month-old son Sparrow.

Congrats!

Nicole Richie is Getting a Comedy Show

Socialite Nicole Richie – who starred in hit reality show ‘The Simple Life’ with Paris Hilton – has teamed up with ABC to create and star in a new comedy show.

“I am so excited to announce that I am officially working on a television project," Nicole said on her website. "I am creating a half hour scripted comedy for ABC in which I will be starring in, as well as producing.”

“The comedy revolves around a young, modern and professional woman who must balance her business and family relationships. She must deal with, and navigate, the many ideas of what a woman’s role is: modern vs. traditional.”

Nicole recently announced she was putting herself on bedrest after being hospitalised with pneumonia, but she admits she has been inspired by women from all different walks of life for the show.

“Lately, I have been surrounded by many different women of all ages and walks of life," she said. "It amazes me to watch and observe how many different ideas there are about what a woman’s role should be in this era. I’ve taken these fascinating ideas, and compiled them into something that I think will be very special and funny! We’re still in the very early stages and I can’t wait to share more with you soon!”

Nicole Richie Thinks of Joel Madden as her Husband

Nicole Richie appeared in court on Monday to get a restraining order against the paparazzi that caused her car accident last month. During the court proceedings Richie's lawyer referred to Joel Madden as Richie's husband and she did not correct him.

"A few of the paparazzi had become more aggressive...trying to get in front of me, trying to get beside me, ran a red light," Richie said during her testimony. "I was hysterically crying."

Her lawyer Mark Geragos asked, "Did you call your husband?" and Richie replied with "yes."

Richie and Madden are not actually married, but the two have been together for several years and have two children, Harlow and Sparrow.

The accused paparazzi were ordered to stay 50 yards away from Richie and her two children until 2012. The restraining order does not cover Madden since he and Richie are not married.

Nicole Richie Receives Restraining Order

Nicole Richie has received a temporary restraining order against two paparazzi, Eduardo Arrivebene and Ivon Miguel. According to Richie, these men harass her "on a daily basis."

Richie, whose life has been documented by paparazzi cameras, is concerned for her own welfare and the welfare of her two young children, Harlow (21 months) and Sparrow (6 weeks). Arrivebene was driving when he and Miguel crashed into Richie's car and caused her "severe emotional distress." In a statement to the court, Richie claimed that the two photographers would "scream at me in an attempt to get my reaction, scare me, follow me, chase me in their vehicle."

Nicole Richie, who dates Good Charlotte rocker Joel Madden, was granted a temporary restraining order against both men on October 30th. Further court proceedings will continue in upcoming weeks.

Nicole Richie is Seeking Medical Attention Following Car Crash

The Simple Life star Nicole Richie was driving a Land Rover when she was hit by a paparazzo in a Jeep Cherokee in Beverly Hills yesterday (10-5-09), and told police she was experiencing discomfort and was going to hospital.

“Ms. Richie was driving with a passenger around 2pm when she was struck by two photographers driving in one vehicle behind her," Lieutenant Tony Lee of the Beverly Hills Police said.

“She complained of pain. Her car sustained moderate damage. No paramedics were called to the scene.”

After the incident, Nicole’s mother Brenda arrived on the scene to console her crying daughter.

When asked if Nicole was feeling alright, Brenda replied: “No she’s not.”

Nicole and her mother are then believed to have stopped by Los Angeles’ Cedars-Sinai Medical Center for treatment.

The driver who ran into Nicole is being investigated for driving without a license.

“Officers could not verify his identification," Lee added. "He's being physically brought into the station. This will likely be a misdemeanour traffic violation, and the photographer's vehicle will be towed.”

Another adult was in the car with Nicole, but her two children with partner Joel Madden – 20-month-old daughter Harlow and one-month-old son Sparrow – were not present.

Nicole Richie Has Baby Boy

Nicole Richie gave birth to her second child with Joel Madden, a boy, earlier today - giving him one of the coolest birthdays ever: 9-9-09.

Nicole's website says: "Nicole, Joel, Harlow and Sparrow are all doing well. Thank you for all of your good wishes."

A friend of the pair said: "They want to set an example for Harlow. Nicole and Joel are doing this to seal their love legally. They want the ceremony to coincide with Harlow's first birthday and be one big joyous occasion for everybody."

Nicole Richie's style war over

Nicole Richie and her former stylist Rachel Zoe have ended their feud.

'The Simple Life' star - who reduced Rachel to tears after calling her nicknames including "raisin face" and "lettuce cup" on her MySpace page - was seen happily speaking to the fashionista at a Los Angeles store opening earlier this week.

An onlooker said: "Nicole and Rachel introduced their partners to each other. They talked for 20 minutes about real estate and the economy."

Rachel was little known before her well-publicised war of words with Nicole.

She has since penned a book 'Style A to Zoe: The Art of Fashion, Beauty, and Everything Glamour' and has a TV show on US network Bravo entitled 'The Rachel Zoe Project'.

Rachel, 37, has always insisted it was her collaboration with Nicole which secured the star's position as one of the world's foremost fashion icons.

She said: "Nicole is now what people refer to as the big thing that happened. Everything went from nowhere to everywhere. Nicole was about creating a look.

"Because of her fashion sense, which was really my fashion sense, she became famous. It was a huge moment - Nicole became a style icon without being a star."

Weekender Thursdays: Beachy Green, Proud Grandmas, & Domino Tournaments

So...all sorts of fun and interesting things happening this weekend...what better way to unwind from the stress of the recent Presidential election?

(NOTE: Unless otherwise indicated, all events take place in and around the NYC area.)

FRIDAY: Sir Roger Moore (pictured) will be at Barnes and Noble (555 Fifth Avenue @ 46th Street) signing copies of his new book, My Word is My Bond (go, obvious literary puns!) If baseball, rather than books, is your thing, swing by the Chelsea Piers to see Jon Bon Jovi, Don Mattingly, and Lorraine Bracco pay homage to the New York Yankees (this embarrassing year notwithstanding -- I blame Madonna, personally -- they're still the greatest team in New York City!). Can't do these things 'cuz your dear ol'grandma is in town? Why not enter your Nana into the Seventh Annual Your Highness Grandma Beauty Pageant? (This year's competition is at National in Brooklyn) Or, maybe she'd like a bit of Engelbert Humperdinck...you can catch him live at the Capitol One Bank Theatre in the Round in Westbury, Long Island (don't worry, tickets are still available).

---

SATURDAY: This is a great day to be a kid, as there's way too much to do (don't worry, parents -- like all kids, they'll find a way to complain of boredom). The Intrepid Sea, Air, and Space Museum (pictured) makes its grand re-opening after over a year of repairs and refreshes, which included new exhibit installations, restored aircraft, a new public park-like pier, new interactive exhibits, dry-docking and a new paint job for the former USS
Intrepid. Afterwards, head on uptown to the NY Public Library (111 Amsterdam Avenue, @ 65th Street) to see programs on the newly acquired Uta Hagen papers. Or, you can catch a plane to Miami (hey, airlines, including Delta and JetBlue are having firehouse sales on flights...better enjoy them while they last!) and join the Honey Shine Mentoring Program on Miami Beach as they turn seven beach blocks of Miami's coast into a cleaner, greener environment! Of course, feel free to leave your surly teenagers behind in New York City to hear master of gore Neil Gaiman read excerpts from his classic book The Sandman; this event, presented by the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund, is sure to bring out the D&D geeks (i.e., me) in droves. (Find us at the Helen Mills Theatre on West 26th Street, and bring Pez and Diet Cokes!)

---

SUNDAY: Catch ubermensch James Franco (pictured, *fans self*) compete against Salma Hayek, Kim Raver, Nicole Richie, Joel Madden, Jessica Alba, Molly Sims, and Jeremy Piven in the Hollywood Domino Tournament (yes, watching people play dominoes is about as fun as watching grass grow and/or paint dry, but the opportunity to ogle the hotness of my future ex-husband -- I mean, James Franco -- is all worth it. Plus, they're playing to benefit the art of the Elysium, so we can all suffer a little for a good cause...). They'll be at the Edison Ballroom on West 47th Street (appropriately, the Hell's Kitchen area...though gentrification often finds it being referred to as "Midtown West"...puh-leeze). Of course, if you can't get enough of brain-eating zombies (nice segue...), head uptown to the 92nd Street YMCA to find Neil Gaiman reading more excerpts from The Sandman. In fairness, The Sandman is the only graphic novel (comic book?) to land on The New York Times' best-seller list, so the weekend-long publicity blitz is justified.

Nicole Richie feeds daugther Harlow homemade baby food

Motherhood has turned socialite NICOLE RICHIE into a culinary queen - she feeds daughter HARLOW homemade baby food.

Three years ago, the 27 year old confessed she was no good around the house, insisting she didn't clean and had no idea how to cook.

But, after becoming a first-time mum to baby Harlow in January (08), she has changed her approach to her home life and now purees steamed vegetables for the 10-month-old tot.

She tells People.com, "Food tastes better coming from your mum because it's made with love.

"Her first food was sweet potatoes and she loved it. She ate the whole thing and it was all over the place - in her hair, on her nose, everywhere!"

And Richie's boyfriend, Good Charlotte rocker Joel Madden, is delighted with the star's efforts: "We talk about it all the time... I know exactly what's going into (Harlow's) body."

Nicole Richie has revealed her eight-month-old daughter has uttered her first words.

The socialite and fiancé Joel Madden had Harlow in January.

And they're amazed how quickly she’s growing up.

‘She says “mama” and “dada",’ Joel, 29, says.

‘She says “dada” when she wants to play. Wants to laugh. And “mama” is everything else.

'When we walk into a place, she waves to everyone.’

Nicole, 26, is determined not to shelter her from the paparazzi.

‘My priority is to make her unaware,’ she tells Extra. ‘She's eight months now.

'I can't put her in the infant seat and cover her. She'd definitely know something's going on.

'She wants to experience life and, as a mother, that's important.’
