Hello, Hypocrite

nicole-richie-dancing.jpgDid you ever wonder why Nicole Richie broke off her friendship with Mischa Barton? Because of Misha's drug use! Wasn't Nicole a user and abuser back in the day? In fact, I seem to remember a certain DUI incident in her past. You know, the one that would have put a normal person in jail? Well, it turns out "sympathy" must not exist in Nicole's vocabulary. A friend in need? You can count on Nicole to not be there. She's put a lot of distance between herself and her former pal, using a liberal dose of judgement along the way. More? Why, yes

[Nicole and Mischa used to be really close friends, but after Nicole started a family with Joel Madden, she stopped associating with Mischa because she didn't want to be around "negative, unsafe behavior. In the last few years, her dark side has really come out," says the source, who is close to both Richie and Barton. "Her friends, like Nicole, want to be supportive but they really can't be around her too much. She's too volatile."]

Nicole was also quick to dump (and shame) former party bud Lindsay Lohan. In addition, she helped instigate a text war between Lohan and on/off again girlfriend, Samantha Ronson. Sounds like maybe Mischa's better off with out Nicole - and that's saying a lot!
