Nicole Camille
Richie (born September 21, 1981) is an American
socialite, actress, author, and singer. The adopted
daughter of Lionel Richie, she is best known for her
role in the reality show The Simple Life. She is also
known for setting major fashion trends in hollywood.
Early life: Nicole Richie was born "Nicole
Camille Escovedo" in Berkeley, California.
According to an April 2006 Tatler magazine interview
with Richie, her biological father was a drummer who
worked with Lionel Richie; her biological mother was a
backstage assistant for Lionel. It is rumored that her
biological father is musician Pete Escovedo (brother of
musician Sheila E.), but Richie denied this in a
November 2005 interview with Jane magazine. When Nicole
was two, Lionel and his wife Brenda Harvey-Richie
informally adopted her and raised her as their daughter.
When she was nine, they went through the legal
formalities of the adoption; she still speaks with her
biological mother. Richie says of her heritage that she
is a "mix of everything", but when asked, she
just says she is black. Her godfathers are Michael
Jackson and Quincy Jones.
A year later, Lionel and Brenda split, and in their
guilt over the separation, "Their way of making me
happy was to say yes to everything I wanted, but I don't
think a little girl should have that much freedom",
said Richie in an interview with Vanity Fair magazine.
Richie has studied the guitar, cello, violin, piano, and
figure skating. Richie attended The Buckley School in
Sherman Oaks, California. She also attended the
University of Arizona to study Arts and Media for two
years after graduating from Montclair Prep High School.
Quincy Jones said in a People magazine interview that he
has "known her since she was a baby. She's a very
smart girl. When she was younger she worked eight hours
a day for eight years to become an Olympic figure
skater. She's a very talented girl."
The Simple Life: Richie and heiress Paris Hilton
starred in the 2003 reality series The Simple Life, in
which they lived for a month with a family in the rural
community of Altus, Arkansas. In the second season, The
Simple Life 2: Road Trip, the girls traveled the
American South driving a pink pick-up and living in a
trailer. In the third season The Simple Life 3: Interns,
the girls traveled the East Coast on a bus, staying at
15 different families' houses.
In late 2005, FOX did not renew The Simple Life,
explaining they did not see a place for it in their
schedule. A month later, cable network E! picked up the
fourth season, The Simple Life 4: 'Til Death Do Us Part,
in which the girls traveled around California, acting as
the mother of the family, raising kids for a day and
acting as a wife to the father, though both would do
tasks separately and not be seen together on screen. The
Simple Life 5 was scheduled to begin production in
November 2006 and air in April 2007, however, filming
has been put on hold due to Richie's health problems.
The fifth season of The Simple Life, titled "The
Simple Life Goes To Camp" is currently in
production, and is scheduled to debut on E! May 28th.
Acting: Richie made her acting debut with a
supporting role as cheerleader Kelly Stepford in the
2005 movie Kids in America. She has also made guest
appearances in such TV shows as MADtv, 8 Simple Rules,
Six Feet Under, and American Dreams. Recently, Richie
appeared in her father's music video for "I Call It
Love", opposite Adam Rodriguez.
Music: Another project of Richie's is a music
album. Nicole has stated to Tyra Banks while appearing
on her talk show that her main career focus was and has
always been music and that she's wanted to be a singer
since she was a young girl. Richie was a member of the
rock band Darling. She and model Josie Maran and
socialites Soleil and Sofia Alberti were members.
The songs reported to be done so far are a mixture of
rock, soul and dance. One track, called
"Dandelion", which is a demo recording and a
cover of a song by boy band LFO, was leaked early; it is
a melodic pop-track. In recent magazine articles, Richie
said the demo 'Dandelion' will not appear in her debut
album. She also performed a song called "Tell
Him", which can be heard on American Dreams.
As of August 2006, Richie has six out of ten tracks
finished for her record.[8] In September 2006, Richie
announced that she will soon debut the artwork for her
album on her official MySpace page, however 3 days after
the blog was posted, it was taken down and her record
label status was changed to "none." This
caused the thought that Nicole has been either dropped
from her label or the label wants to keep everything
under wraps until promotion begins. As of April 2007 no
artwork has been posted nor confirmed and her album has
seemed to be put on hold. Speculation is that she is
working on getting healthy and then starting promotion
for her album.
According to new reports by OK! Magazine, she is
continuing work on her new album with the help of
boyfriend Joel Madden.
Other career activities: Richie wrote a
semi-autobiographical novel, The Truth About Diamonds,
which was released by Bharell Jackson Publishing. The
novel is loosely based on her life, but is mostly
fictional. It chronicles Chloe Parker, the adopted
daughter of a singer who makes her way through all of
the hottest nightclubs and parties in Hollywood and
battles a drug addiction. It was rumored that a
character in the book, Simone Westlake, was based on
Paris Hilton.
Richie is a former model for Bongo Jeans and former face
of Jimmy Choo.
In an interview in the March 2007 issue of OK! magazine,
Richie said: "I have a style book that I'm working
on. And I'm launching a jewelry-and-accessories line, a
sunglasses line and doing my own perfume."
Media spotlight, Friendship, feud and reconciliation
with Paris Hilton
On April 20, 2005, amid media reports that their
friendship was in trouble, Paris Hilton, who had been
friends with Richie since childhood, released a
statement saying, "It's no big secret that Nicole
and I are no longer friends", and "Nicole
knows what she did, and that's all I'm ever going to say
about it." A circulating rumor was the story that
Richie had shown Hilton's sex tape at a party; though
Richie has denied this. Richie, however, said
"There's nothing that really happened, we've just
grown apart."[9] In October 2006, Richie and Hilton
reportedly reconciled their friendship.
In an interview in the March 2007 issue of OK! magazine,
Richie said: "It got so blown up that at the VMA's
in August, the woman who was looking after me was having
this intense vibe with her walkie-talkie, like, 'Okay,
come to the stairs, go through this back door.' I didn't
understand why I was doing this maze, and finally Paris
and I crossed paths. The escorts were really trying to
make it so we didn't see each other. It was ridiculous.
When we ended up talking again, we recapped that night
and laughed."
Legal problems and arrests: In February 2003,
Richie was arrested in Malibu, California and charged
with possession of heroin. She was also driving with a
suspended driver's license.
On December 11, 2006, Richie was arrested by the
California Highway Patrol after she failed a field
sobriety test and was charged with driving under the
influence on California State Route 134 in the
Burbank/Glendale, California area. Several motorists had
reported a black Mercedes-Benz G-Class entering the
freeway on the exit ramp and traveling in the wrong
direction. She admitted to using marijuana and Vicodin
before the incident.
Personal struggles: In the spring of 2006, Richie
made media headlines with a dramatically thinner
appearance, after spending two seasons of The Simple
Life slightly heftier than usual. In May she told Vanity
Fair, "I know I'm too thin right now, so I wouldn't
want any young girl looking at me and saying, 'That's
what I want to look like." She also said, "I
started seeing a nutritionist and a doctor. I was scared
that it could be something more serious." During
this time it was reported that she had also sought the
help of a psychiatrist and a personal trainer. Later
that year, in September, Richie stated "I am not
anorexic. I am not bulimic. I do not have an eating
disorder."
In Elle Girl's 2006 Prom issue, in which Richie appeared
on the cover, she said that it upsets her when people
come up to her and ask her if she has a problem. She
maintained that skinny was her natural body type and
there wasn't anything she could do about it.
On October 27, 2006, it was announced that Richie was
seeking treatment for "an inability to put on
weight", though it is not treatment for an eating
disorder.
In March 2007 Richie was taken to the hospital for
dehydration and on March 21 her Reps announced she was
diagnosed with hypoglycemia.
In an interview of OK! magazine on March 2007 Nicole
said: "I don't care about any other rumor except
the one that I have an eating disorder. That really
bothers me because there are people who truly have
eating disorders and it is a serious disease. To put
that title on someone when it is not true is
disrespectful. I've repeatedly said, 'No, I don't have
an eating disorder,' and it has fallen on deaf
ears."
Personal life: Richie dated Canadian music
producer and entrepreneur Brad Salyn for several months
in 2002. The two continue to be friends, with Salyn
producing several tracks on Richie's upcoming debut
album.
She became engaged to club DJ Adam Goldstein, also known
as DJ AM, in February 2005. They had been dating since
2003 and were set to marry in the summer of 2006. On
December 7, 2005, she and Goldstein broke off their
nine-month engagement, but they were publicly seen
together again in March 2006.
In August 2006, Richie began dating Brody Jenner, a
life-long family friend. According to US Weekly, Richie
and Jenner split up in October 2006. Nicole posted an
entry on her official MySpace blog to clear the air:
"I know there are rumors regarding my “breakup”
with Brody Jenner. The truth is, we were never really
together. We hung out, and he’s a nice guy, but my
heart was never in it. Anything further is just a cry
for publicity."
Richie is currently dating Joel Madden. Rumors of their
break-up have been circulating, but are now confirmed by
a source close to them to be un-true.
