Nicole Richie is confused


Nicole Richie has said that her childhood was so happy that it lead her to do drugs:

Nicole revealed, “I had a pretty fun childhood, but I just wanted to feel nothing. It wasn’t that it was horrible and I wanted to feel better. I just didn’t want to feel anything.”

She adds, “Doing drugs kind of made me just forget and not feel anything, for a second. I think it’s a combination of things. Partly just me wanting to be older – it’s what the older kids were doing at the time.”

Nicole has been cared for by Lionel Richie and his wife from the age of three. She is the daughter of a drummer that worked with Richie and one of his backstage assistants, and was formally adopted when she was nine. Even if she says things were fine and she had a good childhood, she may have been conflicted about her adoption. When someone says they don’t want to feel anything, they’re trying to deny that there’s anything wrong.

Here are pictures of Richie on 3/24 with her hair extensions and some outtakes from her People magazine shoot.
