Are headlines like that even surprising anymore?
The Simple Life's (emphasis on SIMPLE) Nicole Richie was arrested early this morning in Burbank, CA for going the wrong way on the 134 freeway. Witnesses called the police, and when police got to her car, she admitted she had taken Vicodin and smoked pot. But she wasn't drunk on booze, thank heavens, which means she's being responsible.
Two interesting aspects to this story: one, the police have told TMZ.com that they aren't going to release Richie's mug shot, which means it can't be added to the Hall of Fame. And two, the police report lists her height as 5 feet 1 inches and her weight as 85 pounds. Which basically means she weights nothing, and when she turns sideways she vanishes completely. She should join Heroes!
Update: the TMZ.com story has been updated with Richie's booking photo.

Please get some help. We'd hate to lose such a huge talent.
Seriously, my guess is that Nicole has a major MAJOR drug problem. She was formerly arrested for heroin, which is one nasty drug to kick. Now she was busted for vicodin and smoking pot.

of COURSE she wasn't drinking - alcohol has calories, drugs don't.
in her defense, navigating the socal freeway system is difficult. not "going the wrong way down the freeway" difficult, but tricky enough.

I wonder how many drugs were in her system that she *didn't* admit taking...? And wow, 5'1"/80 lbs? That's only 0.7625 pounds per inch of height. If I'm not mistaken, she's around 25 pounds underweight for a woman of her height with a "small frame," and that's still erring on the small side of the scale.
I'm reminded of the Family Guy episode when Chris (as Cristobel) dates Kate Moss. "Oops, a crack in the floor!"

What do you mean by, "Please get some help. We'd hate to lose such a huge talent," MacGuffin?
I'm not trying to be shitty. I do hope she gets some help. But what's this talent you speak of? She doesn't sing, dance, or act; I think her only "talent" is that she's Lionel Richie's daughter. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I was using a comedic device known as sarcasm, TomB.

I saw a pic of Nicole on www.arrested.com. She takes a glammorous MUG SHOT, although see looks a bit buzzed while smilling!

Did Nicole's recent reunion with Paris have an alcohol-related influence on her? Do you think? Also, how much alcohol would it take to get an 85-pound woman drunk? I'm guessing one glass of egg nog will just about do it....

I heard Nicole Ritchie has a major shitting problem too. She doesn't eat regularly, so her asshole blocks up with food from weeks past and just explodes at random times. It happened when she got out of the black SUV she was driving. She had short shorts on and she literally shit all over the pavement.

After Britney and Paris flooding the gossip columns just recently, maybe Nicole Riche now wants the limelight to be hers as well.
