Nicole Richie, daughter of Lionel Richie, is the poster child for tabloids, nationwide. She is the stubborn eternal wild child who???s given way for stories about eating disorders, drug addiction, socialite feuds and any other provocative act that has the possibility of manipulation. The first time she became known outside of the Beverly Hills gates was when she appeared on her BFF, Paris Hilton???s, show The Simple Life. From that show, sprang an I-don???t-care-what-people-think liberated girl that the audience was drawn to immediately. After a stunt in rehab for heroine, her appearance changed as well, (some say) thanks to celebrity stylist Rachel Zoe. After an on-going catfight and then kiss-and-make-up session with Paris Hilton, the duo came back more reserved. Richie also wrote a book, The Truth About Diamonds, and has also tested her talent in the recording studio. Recently she has taken what is hoped to be a life-changing one-eighty, and has announced she is expecting with Good Charlotte boyfriend, Joel Madden.
