Nicole and Joel Check Out The Koala Bears

April 30, 2007

Nicole Richie and Joel Madden were in Sydney for the Australian MTV Music Awards but the couple made time for some PDA at the zoo. Nicole was bashful one minute and smiling for the cameras the next. Apparently she petted a koala bear (I thought they were actually unfriendly cute creatures but perhaps she has some special way with them).

Nicole doesn't look healthy like she use to before she starred in that stupid show with Paris. I wish the girl would realize that she's NOT Paris Hilton and start being her true self again and EAT!!

GASP is that a pooch in nicole richies tummy im not saying pregrant or omg she gained wait lose it I just have a feeling that maybe she's getting HEALTHIER i think joel is or was a great guy with hilary even tho i didnt see them as a good match since hilary seems i dunno but they just seemed happy at the time and its sad they broke up and joels with Nicole so soon, but from what i believe Joel is helping Nicole with her heroine addiction or vice versa, and maybe they really are in love?

Firstly, there are no such things as Koala Bears!! They are simply Koala's, please stop insulting them!Sorry, but I dont understand why all Americans refuse to accept this!Secondly, to people wondering why she's wearing tights in warm Sydney - it's not warm here right now! It's freezing!

I don't think anyone thinks a koala is a bear. They just look like one. Kinda like how you call panda bears bears, even though they are in the raccoon family. Anyway, aren't koalas often infected with syphilis?
