Nicole Richie records an adorable dance-off tribute to Britney Spears

fp_7250210_metgala_ram_133_256

This is just too cute. Just hours before Britney Spears was due to perform in LA with her Femme Fatale tour, Nicole Richie was hanging out with her friends, and somebody said something about a Britney-style dance-off. Nicole went head-to-head, move-for-move with a male friend (he seems like a hairstylist type) to Britney’s “Slave 4 U”. The dance-off was recorded, and Nicole tweeted the video with the message: “In honor of my queen, @BritneySpears – Can’t wait to dance tonight!” Be careful – the sound is really loud on this video!

This is adorable! And Nicole does have some moves! She looks like she practices! I can see her acting all innocent, “Dance off? Well, I don’t know…” and then BAM, she pulls out her old-school Britney moves (which Britney won’t do anymore).

Sigh… this made me nostalgic. This is SO wonderfully girly.

  2. RHONYC says:

    Janet & Madonna’s too.

  3. JJ says:

    I kinda want her to be my best friend….. lol

  4. Incognita says:

    Nicole slayed her dance competitor and owned him! Get it Nicole!

  5. Blue says:

    She’s so much better now that she’s not Paris’ sidekick.

  6. Lilou says:

    Keiser,

    Britney can still do the moves!! in fact, in the Femme Fatale Tour, she is back to the old “I’m a Slave For You” routine and she kills it…

    Just FYI :-))

  7. Jennifer says:

    She looks so healthy! So good to see her like this. Move it, girl!

  8. Glee says:

    GO NICOLE! GO NICOLE! GO NICOLE! THAT WAS SO CUTE……….

  9. Rachael says:

    I have to admit, I’ve always had a soft spot for Nicole Richie, even in the “Simple Life” days. She seems really funny which usually wins me over. I’m sure she probably still has the annoying personality flaws that come from being raised rich and famous, but she seems less annoying than Paris and the other idiots that fall into this category.

  10. serena says:

    that was really cute.

  11. constance says:

    This is very cute. Good to see her not doing something sketchy, or drunk. I think she’s doing a good job or remodeling her reputation.

    @ Lilou: This was killing it? http://youtu.be/GnJaTFy5pJc

    I’d rather pay Nicole to perform it.

  12. Chloe says:

    hahhhaah:)) so dorky and cute!

  13. lilred says:

    It was cute and she owned it, but I like her much better with her lighter hair.

  14. itstrue says:

    I LOVE her!! She’s so cute and seems really dedicated to her kids. One of the best transformations of all time!

  15. naturegirl says:

    Constance @ Lilou

    That is britney’s original, why is she acting as if she cant move????

  16. 4Real says:

    Aww she so fun and adorable.

  17. bluhare says:

    Marriage and motherhood (but prolly motherhood) have done wonders for Nicole. She looks great. Better than she ever has.

  18. dani says:

    The video is indeed cute, but the girl has no rythm!

  19. Raised brow says:

    Cute, I suppose, but I haven’t forgotten Nicole’s over-the-top rudeness in the 2nd season (or 3rd…I can’t remember) of the Simple Life, when she and Paris Hilton drove across the country and stayed with various families. The family in question was a southern *DEVOTED* Baptist black family, when Nicole disreguarded their faith and blatantly disrespected them on every level imaginable. The family’s matriarch had only one demand…NO cursing, but Nicole freely went about with “f*ck” this and “oh, my *effing* God” that…defiantly, and in the presence of the family’s children, no less, revealing the matriarch to shudder uncomfortably. While I understand this was normal behavior for both twits back then, and the show’s ratings relied heavily on their antics, I was especially offended because Nicole spent much of her childhood at her father’s parents’ home in Alabama. I couldn’t help to wonder what her grandparents thought of their granddaughter’s debauchery. Not to mention (but I must), even though it’s common knowledge Lionel wasn’t present for most of her upbringing (being on tour, having affairs with younger women), Brenda Richie did her best to single-handedly raise this girl to respect her elders and people, in general. Brenda, being denied the experience of having children of her own, raised Nicole as if she were her biological child, noting she felt it was important for Nicole to not just benefit from a priviledged life in Beverly Hills, but to experience the nurturing from a loving extended family in the South. I’ve always had nothing but pure respect for Brenda Richie, and my heart literally bled for her after watching Nicole’s cringe-worthy attitude in that family’s home. Nicole Escovedo Richie-Madden has turned her life around for the positive, and I believe her to be a dedicated mother, but I’m still waiting for an apology for her foul behavior.

    Guess I’ll just have to continue waiting…

    A shame.

  20. teehee says:

    I love to see how she has taken all the advantages and benefits of being a rich child, to use them to take good care of herself and be healthy and happy.
    Too often we see young rich people, offspring or not, who actually use their resources to destroy themselves (drink, snort, and smoke it all and themselves away) But instead Nicole is a good example of how to turn it all around and use yoru head and now she glows as a grown woman.
    I’d do her. LOL She and Joel’s daughter are my two female crushes–
    She makes me so envious yet so proud at the same time! 😛
    “wonderfully girly” is a good way to put it, too but alongside it all, shes got brains and depth too. *sigh*!!!

  21. Samigirl says:

    Adorable. I never thought I’d like the girl who co-starred with Paris Hilton on The Simple Life.

  22. Darlene says:

    oh that’s CUTE!!!

  23. TQB says:

    Too cute. It amazes me that she used to be such a PITA disaster. Now she just seems so warm and funny. Nice that even a spoiled rich girl can look at her two adorable kids every morning and realize that’s what life’s about.

  24. Caity says:

    I swore Nicole had blonde hair now…how was this just recorded?

  25. Karen says:

    I was ashamed of myself for watching most of the first season of The Simple Life but I immediately launched my girlcrush on Nicole. It wasn’t too difficult to figure out who was the real breakout star of that show. All Paris could do was mumble in that godawful annoying baby voice of hers while Nicole was the brains behind their antics. Yes, she was annoying as f**k especially when she tore up the bar looking for her “stolen” purse but she was the only thing that made it watchable.

    I love that she changed her life and I’m still a total fan. Not enough of a fan to spend money on her clothing line but good for her all the same. She looked very confident as she pulled out her moves and that says a lot about her as well. Not shy, that one. Not at all!

  26. gab says:

    I really like Nicole and her sense of style. She is quite beautiful.

  27. HotLatino says:

    I can’t stand her, she looks like a snake, her face is really ugly. What has she done? She does NOT deserve to be famous!

  28. Kim says:

    She CAN NOT dance.

  29. Amanda G says:

    The sad thing is that Nicole is probably a better dancer than Britney is now.

    How does an uninteresting, dumb skank like Paris get a reality show, but someone cool and fun like Nicole doesn’t?

  30. buguiii says:

    She remind me of all of us trying to dance like brit… who can say that never tried it???

  31. Sloane Wyatt says:

    Nicole gives off such good energy!! Adorable video, Girl looks cute and fun.

    From being young, strung out, running with Paris, and being a mouthy punk, I’m quite proud she’s sobered up and is loving life again. I’d watch her on the tube! Go Nicole.

  32. padiddle says:

    @ Raised Brow

    Not trying to be rude, but how do you know she didn’t personally apologize to that family? Just because she didn’t do it through a tabloid or hold a press conference, doesn’t mean she never spoke to those people again or didn’t feel bad for what she did.

  33. Nev says:

    she’s got the perfect mix of hilarity and sweetness…plus she’s gangsta.

    have fun girl!

  34. TQB says:

    @Amanda G, my sense is Nicole doesn’t want a reality show? She appears to be pretty protective of her family and their privacy, and has more interesting things to do.

  35. Shy says:

    Thank you. That was cute. Now I went to see original I’m a slave for you.

    I wish I would not. Now I want to cry. This is Britney NOW performing I’m a slave for you
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gRIw8KgsaS0

    And this is how she performed few years back.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjAUEGLkNC0&feature=related

    Gosh… It’s like she aged 25 years. How can person from that hot sexy and adorable chick become this cow…. Why is is so hard not to eat so much when you have tour upon you.

    It’s like she is ruing our childhood when she performs I’m A Slave For You during Femme Fatale Tour 🙂

  36. Camille says:

    Nicole Ritchie did a good job on changing her PR image.
    Funny how she isn’t bashed for her past though right?

  37. Erin says:

    ADORABLE.

  38. sirsly says:

    This is called ‘showing off my recent weight loss.’

  39. Dani says:

    @35 – You ask how can a person change so much? It is called a serious mental illness with drug therapy. Plus she has had 2 kids. Neither of those things are kind to a body. I feel for her having to live with the illness she has. I think we most likely have no idea what she goes through on a daily basis.

    I am glad Nicole cleaned up her life. She looks great and seems to have totally embraced motherhood.

    >She CAN NOT dance.

    WRONG!!!!
    That was adorable…I love Nicole…and I used to HATE her (Simple Life era) between he cuteness her and her adorable babies, and what a good mom she seems to be, what’s not to love?

  41. jemshoes says:

    Cute! And ITA with other posters who say Nicole’s really come good since breaking off with Paris and Lindsay, and that motherhood has really grounded her.

  42. B says:

    Nicole really is girlcrushyadorable…@ Raised brow: Google “present,” as in moment, you don’t need to look up “past” because you’re clearly trapped there.

  43. Shy says:

    @Dani: I think Nicole Richie has two kids too. LOOK at THAT body!!!!

  44. normades says:

    Nicole is in charge of her life while poor Britney is not.

    I know a lot of people think that Britney’s family saved her, but I don’t think she should have been performing these last few years and wonder if she should be performing now. She has a serious mental condition and needs time to learn how to take care of her kids.

  45. Raised Brow says:

    @Padiddle: the family in question are friends of my family, going back years. No formal or informal apology was ever offered.
    @#42….nevermind….you’re not worthy.

  46. jane says:

    All I thought about when I watched this was that, “She has no ass.” Otherwise, she did a good job.

  47. Dani says:

    @43 – You are right. Nicole wears motherhood well.

  48. Nicole--meh says:

    Raised brow and Hot Latino, I am in full agreement with you. I can’t stand Nicole Richie. She was a complete ass on the Simple Life and I don’t think she was acting.

  49. iknowiamlate says:

    Raised brow, well your self righteous behind tired behind (that poor family as well) can keep waiting lmao, yes keep living in the past
