Nicole Richie
born: 21-09-1981
birth place: Berkeley, California, USA

In spite of her health issues, Nicole has succeeded in diversifying her career interests, and as well as establishing herself as an actress, she has also found time to write a novel, and to embark on a career as a recording artist and singer. Like Paris Hilton, Nicole has also enjoyed success on the catwalk. She has been a model for Bongo Jeans, as well as a former face of Jimmy Choo. She is also working on her own jewellery and accessories line, along with her own brand of sunglasses.

Given that she is the adopted daughter of Lionel Richie, it was only natural that Nicole would be drawn to the music business. Whilst appearing on a talk show hosted by Tyra Banks, Nicole told the presenter that her main career interest and focus has always been music. For a while, Nicole sang with the rock band Darling, alongside fellow socialites, Soleil and Sofia Alberti. Since 2005, Nicole has been working on her own album, which she is hoping to release in the near future. The artwork for the album can be seen on Nicole’s official MySpace page.

In 2005, Nicole wrote a novel called The Truth About Diamonds – loosely based on her own life. The novel tells the story of Chloe Parker, the adopted daughter of a singer. The heroine battles with drugs and alcohol, while being seen at all the coolest nightclubs and parties in Hollywood. One of the other characters in the book, Simone Westlake, is thought to be based on Paris Hilton.

By coincidence, Nicole’s lifelong friendship with Paris was under threat. At the beginning of 2005, rumours were surfacing that the two girls had fallen out. By April, Paris Hilton released a statement confirming the rumours. In addition, Hilton released a track on her self-titled album in 2006, called Jealousy, which included the following lyrics: “I thought you were my best friend…You used to be that shoulder…you sold your soul for your fame.” Nicole denied the rumours saying: “There’s nothing that really happened, we’ve just grown apart.” In October, 2006, the girls patched up their differences and became friends once more.
