Nicole Richie’s Pregnancy and Pill Scandal

Nicole Richie continues to be profiled in the tabloids not for her weight, but for her supposed “baby bump”, and recently exposed pill addiction. Star Magazine reports that Nicole has popped somewhere around 37,000 pills in her lifetime.

Nicole reportedly admits her addiction to Vicodin (a narcotic painkiller), Soma (a muscle relaxant), and Norco (a variant of Vicodin), among other things. The Star article claims that Nicole stumbled into rehab last month at a shocking 83 pounds and could barely walk or talk.

“She was in tears and explained she was pregnant and needed help because her boyfriend threatened to leave her if she didn’t do something about her addiction”.

As for the pregnancy, Nicole has not publicly confirmed nor denied it. I think she’s enjoying the publicity, since her weight is no longer getting her on the cover of tabloids. If this is the case, she is certainly hypocritical to boot, since her book made fun of one of her friends who used to pretend to be pregnant for tabloid publicity.
