”Forget about surviving 40 years in the music business. Just surviving 27 years of Nicole Richie has been a struggle-and-a-half, I want to tell you. I stand here as a survivor, I want you to know, for all the parents out there.”

Lionel Richie, at the TV Land awards.

  • There’s really no humor in that comment. Heroin addict, bulimic?, DUI arrest, illegitimate child… yeah that’s hilarious.

  • Hey, he’s just saying the truth. Al least he’s not making excuses for her like other parents, who deny that there’s anything wrong with their kid. He deserves a fucking award for still being sane after all that.

  • If you go from the Lionel to the little girl, it’s like the stages of Christmas or something.

    Also, does anyone have any experience with guinea pigs that could help me? I was given one yesterday in a frantic last ditch effort, and I don’t know what the hell I’m doing with this thing. If you could email me with any and all suggestions, that would be great! I’ll put the link to my myspace up… don’t worry, it’s not a virus. I appreciate it, and I’m desperate for suggestions and knowledge. Thanks!!!

  • Did someone say Lionel is a has-been??? Wow, you have no idea how much that guy has influenced music. He is a great songwriter.

    I love you Lionel! “Stuck on you, gotta feeling deep down inside that I just can’t lose…” Now that song will be in my head all day!

  • What a dick. If anyone knows anything, it’s the parent (99% of the time) that fucks up a kid. There is never a bad dog, just bad owners…same premise.

    He felt like he was doing this poor kid a favor by adopting her, I bet she would have been better off with a parent who actually raised her. Dickhead.
