NICOLE RICHIE HOSPITALIZED FOR PNEMONIA

After complaining of feeling badly for days, Nicole Richie was hospitalized for pneumonia at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.



On Sunday, Richie, 28, said on her Twitter page that she had been battling illness, writing, "ok cold, it's been 6 days. Lets part ways graciously & keep it moving."

And the following day, at a court hearing to get restraining orders against two paparazzi, Richie appeared subdued and her lawyer indicated to the judge that she wasn't feeling well.

Last week the star's rep shot down Internet rumors that she was suffering from the swine flu. Yesterday, her rep reported that she was "doing well."

It's nice to see these two happy. Although I must admit I'm not surprised. I've heard good things about Joel and I knew motherhood would make a good woman out of Nicole.

MINORITY REPORT: NICOLE RICHIE OUT OF JAIL

In one minute, out the next: Nicole Richie checked herself into the Century Regional Facility in Lynwood, California, on Thursday (August 23) to start serving her DUI sentence — only to find herself checking out less than an hour and a half later due to overcrowding. Richie had been sentenced to serve four days in jail.




"At this time, the criteria for a female arrestee sentenced to 30 days or less for a nonviolent offense is as follows: the arrestee is booked, screened and usually released within 12 hours," the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department said in a press release.

"This procedure is based on jail overcrowding to manage population levels mandated by federal court guidelines. Based on the mandated guidelines and Ms. Richie's 96 hours sentence, she will be treated in the same manner as other inmates with a similar sentence." The jail is the same one where Paris Hilton served a portion of her DUI sentence.

NICOLE RICHIE REVEALS SHE'S PREGNANT

Nicole Richie finally fesses up to ABC News' Diane Sawyer...Yes, she is pregnant. Richie revealed the worst kept secret in a new interview airing on Good Morning America Thursday and on 20/20 Friday.



Richie, 25, confirms that the baby's father is boyfriend Joel Madden, 28, whom she's been dating since earlier this year. In excerpts provided by ABC, Richie also opens up about her actions on the night of her Dec. 11 DUI arrest, and why members of young Hollywood are suddenly finding themselves in so much trouble with the law.

As for her guilty plea in the DUI case last Friday, Richie tells Sawyer: "I have a responsibility and it's something that I did wrong, and if I could personally apologize to every single person that has lost a loved one from drunk driving I would. And unfortunately I can't, but this is my way of paying my dues and taking responsibility and being an adult."

Richie was sentenced to four days in jail. She also agreed to serve a three-year probation term, must enroll in an alcohol education program, and pay a fine of $2,048.

Could Nicole be growing up? Lets hope.....On an unrelated note, girlfriend has been looking fab lately.
