The second segment of Diane Sawyer's interview with Nicole and Joel aired on GMA today. This time, Nicole denied ever having an eating disorder and how she now eats all the time. She claims to be playing by the rules - no sushi, no caffeine, no alcohol or drugs. Now that Nicole is opening up, Lionel is weighing in on his feelings about his daughter's behavior. He said, “My daughter has made some mistakes in her life and has accepted responsibility for her actions. She has not blamed others for her problems and is growing up very quickly, albeit in the heat of the media spotlight. In spite of what has happened, I continue to love her and cherish our relationship.”
We're wondering why Lionel was so quiet and now that he has opened up, he still hasn't told us whether or not he's excited to be a grandpa. Nicole's baby is supposedly due in December so we still have plenty of time for the family to tell us more. In the meantime, Nicole needs to go to jail and the rumor is she may be headed there this weekend.

lionel richie is great . i still love some of his old songs.
1You can have caffeine while you're pregnant, just not large amounts.
Of course, I avoided it completely with my first pregnancy, too. My second, I had it a few times a week. Now I get a Super Big Gulp on my way to work each day.

Greggie how many kids do you have?
3But I want to write to her in jail
jk...
4And you know, I understand her reasoning behind "I did not have an eating disorder," but still, what she's describing is a problem and it's obvious why everyone thought (and probably will continue to think) she had one.
5This is my third, tatti.
6of course she didn't have an eating disorder because she was too busy doing drugs.
7I read some insane article that said that if you're planning on having kids you should cut out the large fish (i.e. sushi grade tuna) for two years before you plan on trying to concieve... I'm going to have a hard time cutting sushi out for 9 months... let alone 2 years and 9 months!
8Exactly, tabloidprincess.
I kind of keep going back and forth between "good for her!" and a massive eyeroll that makes my head hurt.
9She was pictured getting take-out sushi a short time ago. She lies.
10You can eat some sushi. There is cooked shrimp sushi available. Or the cucumber rolls are fine. It's just the ones that contain completely raw fish that you should avoid. So being seen with a container of take-out sushi doesn't mean she's lying.
11Go to jail, get it over with, then stay outta the public (i.e., Hyde, The Ivy, Pure) until you have that kid!
12Greggie - good point, plus I thought that it was raw fish and the large cooked fish, i.e. Tuna, because those fish live longer and eat other fish and have the dangerous levels of mercury... I'm not a Doc though so I have no idea what I'm talking about.
13It's ok to drink caffeine when you're pregnant. So no thank you, Starbucks barista, I would NOT like mine decaf.
14I'm entirely unfamiliar on the reasons why sushi/tuna is unsafe because I never eat tuna or raw fish in the first place. *lol*
15congrats Greggie! how's your pregnancy coming along..
I also believe at times I think what the heck nicole but then other times i really like her..
16Good! Get the jail outta the way so she can start fresh. Smart idea~ I do hope she really goes this weekend to get it done!!! I can't wait to see her out and about looking all preggers and cute!!! =D
17Greggie... your avator makes me think about practicing the art of baby making... what with that come hither stare lol.
18It's coming. *lol* Ask me again in a couple of weeks.
I agree wtih Miya, I thik Nicole's going to look absolutely adorable when she's all round-bellied.
19princis11, me too. Me. Too. *lol* The best part is that both my sons insist that the picture is of their dad.
20okay...if it's not okay to eat sushi and raw fish...then what the heck do japanese women eat?? I mean...fish is a huge staple of Japan's diet!
I'm sure, just like caffine, it's okay in moderation...just try not to go for the big ones that contain a lot of mercury!
hmmm =/
21high five to greggie.
22i like how she did black face when shes like 1/3 black and was adopted by African Americans. Real nice there. She's a b*tch and has no talent, whatsoever. She's not even beautiful. She was Paris' best friend, good achievement. Go have your baby, despite being totally undernourished. Yeah, actually just go far from the spotlight so we don't have to see your ugly mug again.
23YEP, Tabloidprincess.....I never thought it was an eating disorder. The thing about Nicole is that she doesn't lie as much as she just won't tell you the whole truth. I think the weight thing was drugs. Personally, I think she was on those horse tranquilizer pills. .....Clenbutral(spelling?)
24Miya, that's always been my question about sushi, too.
25Its hard to believe her dad and her have any kind of relationship. Whenever they are together it seems forced and fake. I don't know, its just what I notice.
26wow, having a bad day knives? sheesh. loving the lolcat though. cheers!
27She ALWAYS lies. She even said so when she was on Oprah. She said she lied to get out of trouble and her parents always believed her.
28Good point Miya!
Look forward to seeing Nicole more filled up. She is looking better now..than say a several months ago..
Greggie..your kiddies will know David their football dad
29I am still upset for the little baby inside of her. Her dad and her have claimed that she was always tiny, but pictures from her childhood have been all over her E! True Hollywood Story, and she was NEVER tiny like that.
This means that both her and her dad lied about her issues, letting millions of little girls think that some people are just naturally gaunt and skeletal.
I also thought sharing their "home video diary" with GMA and other tabloid programs is pretty cheap. A pregnancy is one of the most private matters you could ever encounter, and the fact that they are exploiting it is pretty low.
30I'd like to see Nicole get some more meat on her, she's still too skinny! She would be cute being chubby and pregnant!
31If I was in her shoes, I'd do my time so I could get on with it. Why wait and have that hanging over her head?
32I am concerned that whatever made her skinny in the first place (drugs, an eating disorder, etc.) is still going on because she is still so skinny. She's 4 months pregnant, and if she stopped whatever behavior was causing her weight loss, I would think she would have filled out a little by now. Looking at her collar bones jutting out on tv last night (at the gym, I had no choice but to watch) was really disturbing.
I hope she does gain some weight, adopt healthy habits, and that her baby is healthy. I am crossing my fingers that she is telling the truth when she says she's changed!
33I think Nicole is more grown-up than Paris, already, and motherhood only grows her.
34If she's had morning sickness, she probably wouldn't be "filling out" yet. It's incredibly common to lose weight the first 14-17 weeks.
35lionel is father. it is normal he is concerned about her child and forgive all her mistakes
36I may still have hope for her....
37I deffinatley like Nicole more than Paris - atleast she accepted she made a mistake, and didnt get in to a state about it!
38Did I miss the interview? Was it yesterday??
39it was on this morning and yesterday but you can see it all tonight on 20/20, with additional stuff that wasn't on GMA either apparently
40No matter what is going on with her, I can't help but find her appealing. I would love for her to get it together and suceed!!
41I will say this about Nicole, she admitted she did drugs and drank. Paris denied it and then went out partying the following day. I just hope Nicole is not doing drugs or drinking now.
42Even with her flaws she is more mature than Paris. I can't believe the two of them were/are friends.
43I'm with you KiwiLu. I think she has time to change. I child can make you change if change what you really want. Let's not use Britney as an example.
44I SERIOUSLY hope that baby is going to be okay.
45that baby is gonna be LOA-DED!
46i have no doubt they'll try their best
seriously. & its not like joel has anything better to do anyway,
he seems like he really wants to be a good dad ( well it seemed that way in the diane interview)
thank you trish!! phew I can see it tonight
47All I know is my hubby and I are going to try to get pregnant soon. But I am taking 3 months to get healthy, taking my prenatal vitamins, exercising, cutting out alcohol, etc. (it is true you can have some caffeine when you're pregnant, I just cut it out totally because I get chronic migraines).
Anyway after all that blah blah blah, my point is, she got pregnant 4 months ago? Was she even in a healthy state? Is the girl taking prenatal vitamins? She just looks ill to me. But, again, she has amazing hair.
48As long as she's eating, I'm happy. And I think it's great that her father stands behind her no matter what. That's what family is for.
49Does he know what year it is? When I first glanced over this photo quick, I thought of Run DMC. Nice hat man…NOT.
