Does Nicole Richie realize that the constant attention from the paparazzi has helped her parlay her five minutes of fame as Paris Hilton's formerly chubby friend into fulltime tabloid staple? One could say that Nicole and the paparazzi are living off each other - and, at times, it's been difficult to tell who is the host and who is the parasite. Well, perhaps Ms. Thing thinks that her elevated status of being famous for doing nothing is rock solid. Nicole has won an injuction against paparazzi. Will this be the end of the spotlight for our favorite trashy party girl turned reality princess? Details:
[Nicole Richie has been granted a temporary restraining order against two photographers accused of crashing into her car in early October (09). Richie was treated in hospital after the 5 October (09) accident, which took place just a month after she gave birth to Sparrow, her second child with partner Joel Madden. The paparazzi, Ivon Miguel and Bam Bam, have been ordered to stay at least 100 yards away from Richie and have no contact with her, her children or her staff, following a court hearing in Los Angeles on Friday (30Oct09). In a court declaration, Richie complained she is harassed "on a daily basis", accusing the two photographers of "stalking our home, as we try to go about living our lives". A second hearing will take place in November (09) to determine if the restraining order should be made permanent, reports TMZ.com.]
Okay, two paparazzi down won't really make a dent in Nicole coverage - and they were acting like jerks. Becoming a threat to someone's personal safety is not cool. However being annoyingly famous for doing nothing is also not cool. Perhaps we should file an injunction against Nicole Richie. Harlow, though, is welcome to stay.
