  10. regan | 15/02/10

    The only woman I know that has a better body after pregnancy than she did before. Her weight is perfect.

  11. Kat | 15/02/10

    She is so pretty. I am so proud of how mature and responsible she has become.

  12. shaun | 15/02/10

  13. EH | 15/02/10

    Looks nice, but why is she still famous?

  14. Jupiter_Sims | 15/02/10

    Really lovely. Motherhood works for her.

  15. AMPLJP | 15/02/10

    FAB-U-LOUS! She looks absolutely beautiful! Much healthier than she used to! Much happier too!

  16. coco | 15/02/10

    She looks perfect,
    the hottest mum in Hollywood, No Doubt.
    I like her when she’s a healthier weight.

  17. Amber | 16/02/10

    Oh wow, she actually looks a little normal. My my. Is that some NORMAL weight in her legs?? I’m shocked. Pleasantly shocked. For once.

  18. glow | 16/02/10

    She looks great & I love that hair color on her.

  19. Alicia | 16/02/10

    Looks good.

  20. Mickey von Dutch | 16/02/10

    I liked her better as a caramel blonde. Not to be mean or anything, but why would she be invited for The Late Show?

  21. Ash | 16/02/10

    She is looking alot better now compared to her old self!I was always digusted by her frail looks!Way to go richie!Hope she maintains this figure for years to come by!This frame is just right for her!Not too skinny!Anyway fat is not a word in in this girl’s dictionary.

  22. observer | 16/02/10

    looks very healthy and normal. not liking the dark hair though.

  23. raluca | 16/02/10

    why can’t you just use words like “better” or “worse” instead of healthy?

    1.of all, how can u tell if a person is really healthy, just because according to you, she/he looks “healthy” weight-wise? how do u know?
    2. when u are posting pictures of celebs who aren’t as slim as let’s say a nicole richie or a paris hilton, e.g. britney spears, u tend to say “healthy-looking” quite a lot too, which, in my opinion leaves the aftertase of you basically saying healthy-looking equals thick or someting not as “postive” as slim.

  24. justathought | 16/02/10

    WOW a perfect example of how you can totally turn your life around. Love her body, her hair, her outfit, her personality, her jewelry line, aND she has the cutest kids ever!!! GO NICOLE!

    @ RALUCA: who are you talking to?

  25. Rachel | 16/02/10

    She is looking great, that jacket is lovely too.

    I agree with raluca. When you post with quotation marks around the word “healthier” and then tag the post with “weight gain speculation” it sounds negative. I don’t know why you can’t just say “she seems to have gained weight since…” instead of seeming to sneaky about it…

  26. raluca | 16/02/10

    rian.

  27. beccasaurus | 16/02/10

    Rian said she’s is “looking a lot ‘healthier’ these days” implying she appears healthy (notice that healthier is in quotes, insinuating that the meaning of such a word is subjective) and her appearance may or may not reflect the her actual health.

    I also don’t think the word healthy is always used to describe someone’s appearance due to weight gain. I often seen it thrown around to describe a celebrity who last month/week/year seemed “sickly” i.e. spotty or sallow skin (different from just being pale), unkempt hair, glazed over eyes, and yes, underweight to the point where a person looks tired, lackluster, and skeletal.

    A lot of what determines our perception of a person’s health is based off of the illusion of health (vibrant smile, flattering clothing & makeup, etc.) so I understand raluca’s first point but I’m pretty sure everyone here is aware that looking healthy doesn’t equal healthy.

    I have no idea where you were going with your last point but P.Hilton is skinny not slim, and thick is waaaay different from being chubby or fat.

  28. beccasaurus | 16/02/10

    oh & yeah, nicole ritchie looks WONDERFUL here and always has (with the exception of her infamous yellow bikini picture and the first season of that show she did with paris hilton).

  29. ira | 16/02/10

    she looks amazing! stunning!

  30. am | 16/02/10

    she looks great. and i love her style here. hope she keeps it this way!

  31. Melody Nelson | 16/02/10

    She looks quite perfect. Love the shoes and tattoo.

  32. linn | 16/02/10

    i love her, absolutely adore her!!! so beautiful and natural looking! i reckon she is a good mom, she just looks so kind :)

  33. flederle | 16/02/10

    very cute and healthy – motherhood might be the best that could happened to her!

  34. Katy | 16/02/10

    I love her! She’s skinny and curvy at the same time and always looks great :)

  35. shaden | 16/02/10

    great body,but i think she looks very tired?
    dont like her outfit.

  36. caliste | 16/02/10

    Looks great, agree with Raluca.

  37. Wad-of-cash | 16/02/10

    looks to be a size two. still very slim but looks GORGEOUS and happy. See her rock? She confirmed she’s engaged to Joel. They are such a cute couple, Nicole makes me want to be a Mom in my twenties!

  38. elena | 16/02/10

    she definitely found the right way after all the problems she dealt with…i hope lindsay and britney do the same…

  39. Kianna | 16/02/10

    Nicole is looking really GREAT!! I, too, think that motherhood “becomes” her. Her legs actually look “normal” (not like two toothpicks). One might even say her legs look a bit toned ? She seems to exude a happiness & confidence. She & her partner, Joel, do a lot of charity stuff. They have this one
    called the ‘Richie-Madden Childrens Foundation’ to help kids all over the U.S. And the world, I think?)
    Nicole has her jewelry line, House of Harlow 1960 & she has a couple clothing lines plus she is in talks w/ABC to do a some type of sitcom show later on in 2010. Who knew she would turn out so well? Expected her into a LiLo or Mischa! Good for Nicole !!!

  40. jaxx | 16/02/10

    how is she not freezing!!

  41. annabells | 16/02/10

    Absolutley stunning. Beautiful girl and i just adore her style.

  42. safari girl | 16/02/10

    @ raluca – as creator of this site, i believe Rian has the responsibility to not be subjective, but objective, in the commentary she posts with the pictures. whereas “better” and “worse” tend to be subjective words used to describe a person’s body, “healthy” and “healthy-looking” are more objective, and can cover a multitude of body types (whether one thinks they are “better” or “worse” than before is completely up to viewer… whereas “healthy” is more encompassing). plus, when using “healthy” with larger celebrities, i think Rian is just trying to be nice :-)

    make sense?

  43. It'sjustme | 16/02/10

    Wow what an improvement!!She looks so damn good weight wise and,as for her new hair colour,this is defenatly a makeover!!
    She appears to be one of those who become more beautifull after pregnancy and of course she is more mature than in her Paris Hilton’s days.(I always though that she was the prettiest and that her way of acting was just because of her young age and all the Hollywood world)Btw,she has a wonderfull family and seems getting happier and happier!Good job,Nicole! :D

  44. Monika20 | 16/02/10

    Why is she famous? I just don’t get it

  45. Andrea | 16/02/10

    she looks amazing, very thin but healthy, better after kids

  46. Supersonic1122 | 16/02/10

    She looks gorgeous, these days.
    A gazillion times better lookin’ than her former stylist, below!

  47. It'sjustme | 16/02/10

    Oh,and can’t you see the ring she’s sporting on her left finger??She and Joel Madden are engaged!!Yayyy!Congrats for both!! :D

  48. Pry | 16/02/10

    Great body! Beautiful skinny girl!

  49. Miss Jessie | 16/02/10

    She grew up. Seemingly unlike Paris and her sister who are stunted in their early 20’s. Many celebrities gotta grow beyond their own ego.

    But enough of my prosthelytizing…Richie looks fantastic.

  50. Cookies | 16/02/10

    She’s gorgeous…something just looks ‘right’ about this weight on her. She’s just glowing, slim, and sexy. (She looked like a malnourished child before).

  51. Draccae | 16/02/10

    She looks great, IMO. Her body is at a good place. I do prefer her hair lighter (not blond just a touch lighter than this).

  52. Matilda | 16/02/10

    She looks good.

  53. Rose | 16/02/10

    She’s using the word healthy to describe people who look healthy (as in, not underweight or overweight). Why would you think that healthy is not a positive word? It sounds like you’re the one who has a problem, not Rian.

    In this case it was meant as a huge compliment considering Nicole Richie used to look like an anorexic drug addict.

  54. gemma | 16/02/10

    She looks really good. But I have to say I HATE her hair colour – the dark just makes it look constantly dirty IMHO. It is true for Ashlee Simpson and Lindsay Lohan too. Washes them out.

  55. julie | 16/02/10

    I’m so sick of the Léger bandage dresses. Although I will give her credit – she does look good in it. I love all black ensembles.

  56. nowayjose | 16/02/10

    Fantastic legs. She looks wonderful.

  57. Isabel | 16/02/10

    She looks so cute & happy :>

  58. balanced. | 16/02/10

    she is darling! look at her lovely face and cute little body. I love that haircolor on her.
    I don’t know much about Nicole Richey but have always liked her. She seems to have grown into a very positive role model and mother figure.

  59. dum-dum | 16/02/10

    tee hee….Rian it’s ok to say “fat”. Healthier. How polite : )

  60. Mavis | 16/02/10

    She looks amazing!

  61. teebee | 16/02/10

    she looks great. she has come so far, and i think she deserves nothing but praise :)

  62. jjj | 16/02/10

    She looked better at a lower weight, she has gained some.

    She still looks good though.

  63. Mel | 16/02/10

    She looks beautiful! I love her curves! She looks much more beautiful and healthy at this weight :D

  64. Rian | 16/02/10

    raluca, I say what I want to say. ;-) If you don’t like it, you don’t have to read it!

  65. Connie | 16/02/10

    I am so glad that she turned her life around and found happiness. She looks great!

  66. Anushka | 16/02/10

    Oh no! She’s gaining again! I didn’t like her when she was scary skinny, but I don’t like her at this weight either. She looked good a couple of months ago. Hope she doesn’t go back to her unhealthy ways and pack on the pounds she worked so hard to lose!

  67. HaLi | 16/02/10

    HOT MAMA!!!

  68. so | 16/02/10

    she looks amazing!

  69. Valentina | 16/02/10

    I love her but she looks kind of tired/wasted (motherhood?) if it weren’t for her kids and her engagement I would have said drugs. Sorry!

  70. sarah | 16/02/10

    Very cute!

  71. Jojo | 16/02/10

    She’s looking great all over – except for her haircolour.
    I liked her lighter hair more, but that’s just my opinion:)

  72. Laura | 16/02/10

    I love this girl! She looks absolutely gorgeous!

  73. nnn | 16/02/10

    Looks ok. Something is weird with her face.

  74. annabellni | 16/02/10

    love LOVE it!

  75. Cory | 16/02/10

    i think she looks absolutely stunning.
    and i love love love her coat.

  76. R | 16/02/10

    For the record, when a celebrity that was overweight had lost weight, Rian also uses the word “healthier” – so it’s not just a nice way to say “she’s gained weight.”

  77. kel | 16/02/10

    Nicole.. ur looking hot babe…

  78. erin | 16/02/10

    AHHH i love her… she is always perfect

  79. jj | 16/02/10

    i think i would like her between this weight and after she had harlow and get pretty thin again. she is tiny. i think she looks better thinner than this, but she is happy looking i can’t complain. lol

  80. Kianna | 16/02/10

    Nicole was on ‘Live With Regis & Kelly’ this morning (Tuesday, Feb 16th)in a long brown (also with shades of tan) dress with an attached little shawl like cover-up made of the same material as her dress. The dress was one of her own creations from one of her lines of clothing. She must still be nursing b/c her boobs look a bit “fuller”…like when she was nursing Harlow at “around” the same point in time. Sparrow (her son) born 9-19-09 is just 5 months old (And Nic said he weighs 16 lbs now); so I believe she is probably (IMO) nursing him. The dress she wore at the Letterman taping was gorgeous and showed off just a bit more of her boobs/cleaveage area(s). She is thin (NOT SKINNY) and has cute little curves in just the right areas and in just the PERFECT Proportions for her smaller framed body! I am so thrilled that Nic has been successful at turning her life around so dramatically/successfully. As I mentioned previously, I was (nearly) totally expecting Nic to go down the same path(s) as Mischa Barton and LiLo. I’m so very thrilled & happy for Nicole. She just exudes such a radiance (inside and outside)…an inner peace, happiness, a sense of composure & self-confidence. She is definitely NOT all about herself. Nic puts others (way) ahead of herself. Perhaps, part of that is largely due to her becoming a mom and has FINALLY successfully learned the importance of being unselfish & more “giving of herself” to help others. She is seemingly just more selfless now. I do agree with a few others who posted on her hair color. I liked her hair better when she had it (her hair color) a darker carmel/blonde w/shades of highlights throughout. However, NOW, w/the darker hair…her hair does not look so dried out & a bit lifeless as it did sometimes when she was going through her hair coloring w/different shades of blonde colors.

  81. rachel | 16/02/10

    She looks really good! I’m happy for her. She has an adorable family, good for her!!

  82. Tara | 16/02/10

    She looks great!

  83. Anya | 16/02/10

    Oh no no no! Are you sure this is Nicole Richie? Looks more like “Snookie” from Jersey Shore, lol!

  84. bella | 16/02/10

    Looks so much healthier and happier since she has met Joel and has had her kids :)
    Always like Nicole, but love the fact she has straightened up her life and seems to be staying that way.

  85. Simone | 16/02/10

    totally agree with raluca

  86. anon | 16/02/10

    I’m not impressed at all. Her hair looks like she tried and failed. The dress is like the thousands of other bandeau-my-body-into-a-sexy-shape. All black? Snooze, Nicole. Snooze.

  87. janesaidso | 16/02/10

    I am proud for Nicole. She’s really an example to her peers of how an effort made to change can yield results. I have a lot of respect for her.

  88. Sian | 16/02/10

    anon, you’re so right. I expect a cooler outfit from ms. Richie instead of wearing the same old boring Hervé Leger that every celeb is wearing to sculpt their body into a sexy shape.

  89. moonbel | 16/02/10

    Nice shoes!

  90. Londoncalling | 16/02/10

    Yes, she seems to be at her ideal weight here, but for some reason, i don’t like the outfit, cant put my finger on it, maybe is the hair, or maybe is the all black thing, doesn’t suit her skin, she needs more vibrant colours, she looks dull to me, no sparkles here, the shoes are by her own brand, house of Harlow 1960 Rooney sandals.

  91. justathought | 18/02/10

    wait is she seriously engaged?

  92. mona | 20/02/10

    Looks good. Like the dress.

  93. nunu | 22/02/10

    Someone was asking why is she famous. Well, just look at all these loving comments. Everybody wants good things for her. Her father is Lionel Richie, and she’s been quite successful in being famous herself. Why is anybody famous? What Nicole has done (kicked drug addiction and maybe even anorexia right in front of our eyes), is so much more amazing and inspiring than what many other celebs are famous for! Love love love her!

  94. ZombiePorno | 23/02/10

    Hopefully, she’ll shed the rest of the baby weight soon. She is such a goddess when she is about 15-20 lbs lighter.
