  • Lionel and Nicole Richie Appear on Larry King Together | Today's News: Our Take | 5/28/2009

    In their first joint interview in six years, Lionel and Nicole Richie appeared on Larry King Live together Thursday. Why now? Unclear!

  • Lionel Richie to Receive Lifetime Achievement Award | Today's News: Our Take | 3/6/2008
    This is Lionel Richie's week! Just two days after American Idol semifinalist David Cook performed a rocked-out version of Richie's 1980s hit "Hello," the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers announced that they would be honoring the former Commodore with a lifetime achievement award. Richie will be presented with the Golden Note Award, which has previously been given to artists such as Tom Petty and Stevie Wonder, next month in a ceremony that will also honor Steve Miller.ASCAP sees to it that songwriters and artists in their organization receive royalty pay for the use of their music. So in addition to handing Richie an award, they'll also be lining his wallet, thanks to Cook's rousing Idol performance. — Adam Bryant read more
  • Nicole to Check in to Same Deluxe Prison as Paris | Today's News: Our Take | 8/3/2007
    She's such a copycat! TMZ reports that the affluent Ms. Richie will do her four days' time at Lynwood jail, her Simple Life costar's home away from home for 23 earth-rattling days. The momster-to-be could have done her time at a private facility, but if she'd chosen to do so, she would have had to serve her entire sentence — all four days... in a row! By going to Lynwood, she could get sprung by the sheriff as a result of overcrowding and what passes for good behavior before she's even had a chance to reject her first meal. In related "news," dad Lionel Richie tells Us magazine, "In spite of what has happened, I continue to love her and cherish our relationship." And here I wasn't aware that they actually had a relationship. He goes on to take what I assume is a pot shot at La Hilton: "[Nicole] has not blamed others for her problems and is growing up very quickly, albeit in the heat of the media spotlight." Yeah, poor thing. read more
