Nicole strikes back! When a nasty paparazzo yelled at her to eat, she stood up for herself and then called US Weekly to tell the tale. The only thing she is sick about is being told to eat. Of course the pictures in Star this week tell a different story. Here's more from US:
On the afternoon of August 12, Nicole Richie finally reached her boiling point. As the actress and a friend exited the Planet Blue boutique in Malibu, California, a photographer yelled out to her, “Nicole, you look disgusting. Gain some f—cking weight!” A little while later, a shaken Richie walked right up to the photographer’s window and, in tears, verbally confronted him. Richie talked to Us’s Ken Baker about what made her snap, how she’s taking control of her life and her hopes for a healthy and successful future.
“You don’t scream at people that they are overweight, so what makes people think that they have the right to scream at me that I am underweight? It’s upsetting and mean,” Nicole tells Us. “I am not anorexic. At the moment, I was just sick of everyone constantly bothering me about how I look. I walked up to the photographer and told him, ‘What if I really had anorexia? What if I had a disease? How would you feel about saying such horrible things?’ He probably just wanted to get a rise out of me, but I’m a human being and he hurt my feelings.”

Puke!
1I mean, my reaction, not the reason for her size. although....
2*Eyes roll inside head and shrivel*
3UGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! fug! she needs to seriously eat, she looks like an old lady wearing an empty diaper
How can she seriously deny anorexia? Eating disorder or not, this girl needs to put on some pounds. She just looks so unhealthy...
4Lol sweetpea. rofl
5So weird, I saw a magazine cover last night while checking out, and she looked great. Now I can't remember what magazine.
6As a slim person, I, too, have said that if I were fat people wouldn't tell me to stop eating, so people shouldn't tell me to 'eat a burger.' That being said, she needs to eat a f*cking burger.
7LOL Lonewolf
8LOL lonewolf. a skinny person saying eat something to another skinny person is a point of validation that she's seriously too skiiiinny. again, fug
9why does she always wear a weird head thing at the beach?
10rach, coz she is trying to hide a bald spot from us!
11She is sick. It's not a joke anymore, I think she should see a doctor pretty soon. Doesn't she have a FATHER??? Come on, everybody can see that it's not normal...She's skin and bones, I mean, she's only bones.
12I`m skinny to, so i get it, but she has had a little weight on her before. so i have to wonder why she`s so skinny now. i think she does have a problem.
13Ok, normally gross pictures make me lose my appetite. But, these make me hungry.
14Haha, Jen! Im starving!
15she looks awful!
16wow...she has a point, but damn! She really does look like the pictures of people liberated from concentration camps.
17It makes me wonder, does she think she's beautiful???
18Poor Lionel!!
19lol jen, for some reason this pic makes me even more hungry
20i bet if i stare at it even more, i'd even order an entire pizza! her skinny anorexia body must be freaking out my body!
Ummm...starlet?
21Honestly,
22I really feel sorry for her. Sorry that she has to succuum to Hollywood status quo with what's 'attractive'. She's gone too far, and the scary part is that women who are anorexic or have an eating disorder don't even notice. Physical fixation is really a killer, inside and out.
I struggle with my self image all the time, and yea it sucks, (being honest here), but I fight it. I think most of you might relate to the pressure of being thin. But when I see women look like this, it makes me mad. Hopefully, her close friends and family will help reel her in.
Yours Truly,

What's with her stomach?
23Call me crazy or whatever you want, but I think she's right. I do think she may have anorexia and her weight right now is far from healthy. but you don't resolve the problem by saying "hey you, eat something!". It's more complex
24She should be able to buy a kid size bikini that wouldn't sag on her like that...I am sure she could find one.
25EEEGAD!!!!!!! She looks like death walkin'. Does she think we're all stupid or sumthin'? Not anerexic? Then what are you Non food or liquids consuming?
26Call me crazy or whatever you want, but I think she's right. I do think she may have anorexia and her weight right now is far from healthy. but you don't resolve the problem by saying "hey you, eat something!". It's more complex
27I agree, Sica! I wonder what goes thru her head when she looks in the mirror.
28Aww, I feel bad for her.
If she does have an eating disorder, it's a disease, not something she asked for.
I have always been tiny but in my later teen years I battled bulimia for a while. It isn't something to be taken lightly, no disorder is.
They are frusterating but the scary part is you don't see yourself as this stick figure that everyone else sees you as. I used to stand in front of the mirror and think, oh I need to lose more weight here and here. When in reality I needed to eat and keep it down!
Hopefully, she gets the help she needs. However, just telling someone with an eating disorder to "eat" doesn't help, it makes it worse.
She can't get the help she needs until she is ready to accept help.
29Probably, "my body looks funny. Maybe if I lose a little more weight..."
30sorry for the double post, happens to me all the time
31i just realized something...she kinda looks like an ostrich in the second pic..........is it just me?
32A similar picture of her body type is what is in psych books under the effects of anorexia. She really needs help. She's young but her skin is sagging around her, thats gross.
33Ann, it is more complex. Ive studied all eating disorders in school and none actually have to do with food when it comes to the cause of things.
The photog was just getting what he wanted from her...
34Good for Nicole for confronting the jerk! As for the pic, I dunno, it looks a leeetle bit photoshopped.
35that girl really needs to eat something.
36she is getting worse everyday
yeah, i don't understand why an "intervention" hasn't taken place. if so many people claim to love her, then it should've take place a while ago. but hopefully these pics will fuel one and she'll be heading into a clinic like MK did
37omg! what is wrong with her. I think she needs an intervention. Look at her stomach all saggy and stuff. Her bikini is hanging and her undie is hanging too.. I feel awful maybe Paris should b*tch slap her to a rehabilitation center!
38That picture is sooooooooooooo gross I could literally BARF ... NASTY, NASTY, NASTY ... There is the posergirl for sick, mentally ill and a very poor self image of one's self ... She must really hate herself to do that to her body. Completely 100% gross- absolutely not one thing attractive about that ... it's sick !
39I've got the munchies.
40i don't think she is really anorexic. i think she does have an eating disorder.
41but i think her biggest problem is she loves all of the press. she LOVES it.
Team DC, she does need an intervention. Someone needs to go Tina Fey on her arse!
42What's wrong with her family that they do not do an intervention ... That is far from normal ... She is screaming for help !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
43if you told me may 28th that i would eventually think she looked good at that point.. i never would have believed you. i've never thought such a skinny person would look so healthy.
44Yeah, I totally want to run to Jack In The Box and pig out on curly fries right now.
45I would flip my sh*t if my body was analyzed this closely too, but I definatly don't look like her and my loved ones would have intevened by now...
46was that may 28th of this year? wow, she's really tiny!
47You don't think she is anorexic??? OMG! Talk to any shrink, any doctor, she is not normal ... that body of hers is malnourished and sick ! She is no role model to anyone or anything that walks this planet ... Sick chick she is ! Nice family she has ...
48She is right but at the same time I think She is "famous", and this is one of the bad things about been famous, everyone is going to follow you around!
49She's so thin that she's probably stopped getting her period.
