Celebrity Feuds
Richie Under Pressure

Nicole Richie: Click to watchIf there's two things Nicole Richie hates more than Paris Hilton it's the paparazzi and the attention put on her weight. In an interview airing on "The Tyra Banks Show" next Tuesday, Richie addresses both thorns in her side.

"It's horrible, especially when you're trying to do something about it [her weight] and you have just so many eyes watching you and people talking about you," says the extremely thin "Simple Life"-er.

With so much attention put on her fluctuating pounds, the paparazzi are inevitably going to be snapping pics, regardless of where she is. While she may not mind the shutterbugs all the time, it's a whole different story when it comes to the beach or restaurants.

"It's summer, everyplace to go eat you obviously eat outside ... I'm not eating for the cameras, I live in LA, I do what I normally do," says Richie, adding "What really bothers me is when I go to the beach because when I go to the beach, they want me in the swimsuit."

17. Wow, she looks hot. I did not know she was as good looking as this. Hopefully she can maintain a healthy weight and resume her career as a..... ??? Sorry, for a second I forgot that she has no talent.

18. I really like Nicole BUT enough with the weight. I do believe she is thin enough. She needs to have her new beu help with her weight and see that she is doing what doctors and such say or she'll never look any better. WHAT IS HER REALL DEAL??

19. People (I'm assuming she meant the press) don't call people fat???? Has NR heard of Kirstie Alley? If she didn't want media attention there are a million things she could do and a million places she could go to hhave some privacy. The thing is, if she went away , chances are, no one would remember her when she got back. Someone remind me, why is she famous?? Because she's got an eating disorder?? PATHETIC.

20. NICHOLE,
SOME OF THE LADIES ON YOUR SHOW GOT PROBLEMS WITH YOU TOO... BUT I SAY (JUST TO SHUT ALL THOSE BORED ASS, PLAYER-HATING, JEALOUS BITCHES UP) GAIN 10 POUNDS; WATCH THAT GREENEYED MONSTER REALLY TURN COLORS. YOU'RE DROP DEAD GORGEOUS, GIRL.

I'D LIKE TO SEE SOME PICTURES OF THE COMPLAINERS!!! I BET THEIR MATES WOULD TRADE THEM IN FOR YOU, ANY DAY (IF THEY GOT ANYBODY). KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK, "SUPER STAR"...

A REAL FAN,
FAYE

21. First of all I honestly think that we should stop worrying about someone's weight problem. If Nicole is happy with the way she looks thats all that matters. I don't understand why so many are interested in how anyone looks. As far as the whole Paris thing, Nicole is better of without her. If anyone should be critized it should be Paris. She has gone with so many men that it's amazing how she hasn't caught something. I honestly believe that Nicole is the prettier one whether she is too skinny, or chuncky. Paris has a real flat ass and nasty looking nose. She looks more like a little parrot .

22. ANY man who can be attracted to someone who looks like Nicole Ritchie or many of those other wafer thin celebrities has to either have homosexual tendencies or prefer to be with little boys rather than women!!!!!!!!!!
These are NOT women you are looking at; they are anorexic, boyish looking people!
A woman looks like Jennifer Lopez, Beyonce, Katie Holmes, Scarlett Johansson, Sophia Loren, Marilyn Monroe, Rita Hayworth, etc. They have curves and hips and breasts and shapes that REAL women envy.
Stop with the boyish looking anorexic little girls on tv and in print. They look awful and should only be attractive to men with homosexual tendencies or men who like to be with little boys!!!!

24. Funny thing is that most of the pictures you see of Nichole are either entering or leaving a restaurant! I don't get that at all.
The funniest thing I ever say was when Jay Leno had a pez dispenser on his show and said..."this is Nichole Richies' lunchbox.." I roared at that.

25. I feel bad after watching this because even though I always thought she was anorexic, maybe she isin't! When I was her age i was super skinny and people thought I was to and they would make fun of me! And I would stuff my face and i still wouldn't gain weight. My friends that where with me all the time new the truth, but other people where always saying "you are to skinny!!!" And I was like "I know, I'm trying to gain weight!!!!" It's hard and I know heavy people can't believe it but i went through it and I know it to be true. Now if thats the deal with her, I have no idea. But good luck to her!

26. Cry Me a River. Stars who dine at The Ivy and shop on Robertson should never complain about the paparazzi. Going to those places is asking for it.

27. She shouldn't be complaining. Who knew who she was before the simple life. ANyway she was far from too skinny in the early shows. She is addicted to losing weight. I can sympathize though with women who are naturally skinny and have no boobs. Not everyone can look like JLo, Marilyn, or Rita Hayworth!!!

28. OK, let's all face the truth - this girl has an eating disorder. Does her celebrity status help her? Of course not; neither does her constant denial of her problem. As someone who is in a constant battle with an eating disorder the constant denials and excuses are not only sad but absolutely devastating to Nicole's health. This girl does not look good; she looks gaunt and absolutely emaciated. She has got to get some serious help before it is too late.

29. I feel sorry for celeberties sometimes....some of them like all the attention...but how many people REALLY want the cameras up their butt when they are just trying to spend time with their family and stuff? That would make me damn crazy!!!!.....just because they are movie stars does not mean they do not deserve privacy..

30. Boo F*cking Hoo Nicole. You are famous for ...um....nothing. Oh excuse me, you have a famous father. So the only reason that people know you and that you can be on the Tyra Banks Show is for your Non-celebrity Celebrity status. Thanks to the paparazzi!! If it wasn't for those cameras you would be selling your wares on the next installment of The Surreal Life trying to get back in front of the cameras.
