Nicole Richie opens up about her health


Nicole Richie opens up about her health, in the new issue of OK Magazine. Read some excerpts from the interview below.

About the dehydration incident:“It actually made me really upset because I did not need to go to the hospital at all - it’s just another headline. I was just tired, and I left [the hospital] after 10 minutes.”
What led up to it:“The hours that I’m doing are really crazy right now. I was getting my hair and makeup done in the morning and I turned the heat on to 90, which I probably shouldn’t have done, but I like it really hot in my room. I hadn’t eaten breakfast yet and I asked for a bowl of cereal, but when you’re on a big set it has to go through 15 people to even get to me. I walked outside and I just wasn’t feeling like myself. There wasn’t an on-set doctor, so instead they took me to a hospital. There was absolutely nothing wrong with me.”
On the most annoying rumor about her:“I don’t care about any other rumor except the one that I have an eating disorder. That really bothers me because there are people who truly have eating disorders and it is a serious disease. To put that title on someone when it is not true is disrespectful. I’ve repeatedly said, ‘No, I don’t have an eating disorder,’ and it has fallen on deaf ears.”
On reports that she takes diet drugs:“This is totally ridiculous. The second I gain weight it’s like, ‘She’s had gastric bypass surgery reversed!’ It’s sad because what I’ve come to realize from watching TV and reading magazines is that it’s not me that’s weight- obsessed. America is weight-obsessed. It’s either, ‘This person has an eating disorder,’ or ‘How to lose 5 pounds in 10 days.’ Everything is about diet and body image.”

Punchy Lohan Slams Palin as 'Narrow-Minded Homophobe'




Lindsay Lohan's online missives have come a long way from the days when she offered to "release a politically/morally correct, fully adequite [sic] letter to the press ... simply to state my oppinions [sic] on how our society should be educated on for the better of our country."
Now, with a little help from inamorata Samantha Ronson, she's penned a surprisingly coherent diatribe on Sen. John McCain's vice presidential running mate, Gov. Sarah Palin, which she says was sparked by her "fear, anxiety, concern, disappointment and stress" and her inability to "bite my tongue any more."
"Is it a sin to be gay? Should it be a sin to be straight? Or to use birth control? Or to have sex before marriage? Or even to have a child out of wedlock?" the Barack Obama-supporting actress, 22, rails on her MySpace page. "Is our country so divided that the Republicans' best hope is a narrow-minded, media-obsessed homophobe?"
She goes on to cite an Associated Press story about how Palin's longtime church in Wasilla, Alaska, promoted a conference "that promises to convert gays into heterosexuals through prayer."
And while Lohan says, "I am not against Sarah Palin as a mother or woman," she points out that "women have come a long way in the fight to have the choice over what we do with our bodies. ... And it's frightening to see that a woman in 2008 would negate all of that."
She adds that she "would have liked to have remained impartial; however, I am afraid that the 'lipstick on a pig' comments will overshadow the issues. ... I have faith that this country will be all that it can be with the proper guidance. I really hope that all of you make your decisions based on the facts and what feels right to you in your heart -- vote for Obama!"
Alas, LiLo then undoes much of her earlier eloquence by concluding, "Oh, and ... hint hint Pali-pal -- don't pose for anymore tabloid covers, you're not a celebrity, you're running for office to represent our, your, my COUNTRY! And in the words of Pamela Anderson, 'She can suck it.'"In between educating the public on policy issues and spreading Pam's deep thoughts on politics, Lindsay has been flashing a sizeable heart-shaped sparkler on her ring finger, which has led simmering betrothal rumors to heat back up.
But her rep insists that the diamond bauble isn't an engagement ring and wasn't given to her by Sam, whom she recently gushed to Marie Claire is a "great person."
"She bought it herself," the mouthpiece tells People. "It's an antique ring that she found at an antique store in NYC."
So, why show off an eye-catching rock that she knows will kick-start speculation about the seriousness of her relationship with Ronson, whom the New York Post says she enjoyed an extended and "intense liplock" session with during a recent night out at New York's Beatrice Inn?
"It's like her own personal joke these days," a snitch tattles to E! News. "She slips a ring on that finger, then goes to a party and watches the rumors start to roll. It amuses her."
Not amusing to Lindsay? Tripping in front of the paparazzi.
TMZ reports that Lohan stumbled over a barricade set up outside New York's Bowery Hotel on Sunday night for a birthday bash tossed by Jennifer Lopez for husband Marc Anthony.
Apparently concluding that a shutterbug was responsible for her lack of balance, LiLo "punched" one of them in the nose, all while talking on her phone and carrying a suitcase-sized purse.
After the supposed proboscis swing, she is said to have told the person on the phone, "Oh my God, I just hit a paparazzi."
Police were reportedly called but no charges filed.
