Ron Howard and his wife Cheryl were spotted taking a family stroll with their grandson Theo ~~on Blueberry Hill~~ in Santa Monica.

Yes, that's right. Opie is a grandpa. Why does that make me feel old? Must be a Nick at Night thing.

Ron Howard: Opie, Richie and Obama

Whit Honea — Fri, 24 Oct 2008 19:26:00 GMT

Hey kids, you like the time machines? Then strap on your seatbelt and get ready for a ride.

Mr. Ron Howard has been in the lives of most Americans for a very long time. The once child actor and current director is the latest star to put out a political endorsement. He does it with some help from his very cool friends. Heyyyyy!

Yes, it's politics and you may not agree with his view, but it's still fun to see the memories.

Heather Locklear Doing Well, But Misses Daughter Ava

Karen — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 18:02:00 GMT

Heather Locklear is doing really well in rehab, despite looking tired and pale last week. She is finding the hardest part is missing her 10 year old daughter, Ava.

"The hardest part of all of this is being apart from Ava," says one Locklear friend. "But she knows she'll be better than ever, and that they'll both really benefit from this. She's feeling better, but it's tough."

Richie Sambora has been lucky enough to get some time off from teh Bon Jovi tour to hang out with his daughter, who has been "with family and continuing on with her summer plans," says the source.

"Heather's really happy that Ava got to spend time with her dad," says her pal, and Richie and Heather are "are speaking all the time."

Richie has been very supportive, as he said he would be.

Says the source: "They really have come through [the breakup – and are] on the other side."

Joel Madden Getting Baby Tats

HerBadMother — Wed, 12 Dec 2007 21:02:00 GMT

Joel Madden is reportedly planning on getting his baby's name - you know, that one that he's having with Nicole Richie - tattooed on his chest.

He wants to get the tattoo within days of the birth, a source told Star magazine. "(He's) going to get his baby's name tattooed over his heart — one of the few places on his body that isn't covered in ink."

That's cool, I suppose. Over the heart is certainly better than over the ass, in the manner of David Beckham's ode to his firstborn child. Or over any other over-used (or under-used, as the case may be) parts.

Wicked! Paris Hilton Tries to Sell Photos of Nicole Richie's Oz-Themed Shower

sweatpantsmom — Mon, 26 Nov 2007 14:05:00 GMT

Here's a shocker - Paris Hilton can't be trusted. Hilton, who hosted a baby shower for frenemy Nicole Richie recently at the Beverly Hills Hotel, is now suspected of trying to sell photos from the party to the tabloids. Exclusive coverage was granted to InStyle magazine, but last week pirated photos of the Wizard of Oz-themed event were being offered to competing publications. And an insider thinks Hilton is behind it. "All the photos that were offered had Paris right in the center of them, as the star," says the source. "They look set up." That's not hot.

The pictures, which would have fetched between $3000 and $4000, never sold but the source says Hilton wasn't after the cash. "None of the money would have been for Paris — for her it's about the attention." I can't wait to see the pirated photos of Nicole giving birth, with Paris' smiling face right there next to the baby crowning.

Nicole Richie: Did They Try To Make Her Go To Rehab?

HerBadMother — Thu, 22 Nov 2007 18:02:00 GMT

Ah, there's an uplifting sight: a pregnant woman leaving a substance abuse treatment center. Do it for the baby, Nic!

Granted, Nicole Richie was probably at the Alternative Action Program in LA to fulfill her court-demanded traffic school obligations, but maybe she took in an alcohol education course as well. Driver rehab was, after all, part of her sentence for driving, drunk, the wrong way down a LA freeway. At least the paparazzi didn't get a shot of her puffing on a Marlboro outside the AAP doors. That would have looked bad.

Weekly World News: Travis Barker Fakes Death, Then Undergoes Sex Change!

HerBadMother — Sat, 17 Nov 2007 16:33:00 GMT

The last few days in the world of Internet gossip have been pretty crazy. Sure, there are always crazy stories rolling around - Miley Cyrus pregnant? Who could get past Billy Ray and his shot-gun to knock her up? - but this week's stories took the cake. Travis Barker dead! Travis Barker resurrected! Travis Barker zombie seen shopping in Los Angeles!

(Take those stories together with those concerning Paris Hilton's plans to host AA meetings for drunkard elephants and Brangelina's plans to buy Ethiopa and you pretty much had a perfect storm of extreme gossip.)

Which got me thinking: what else might we have seen in the headlines this week, if the denizens of MySpace ran Associated Press?

1) Clay Aiken Marries Jake Gyllenhaal In Secret Ceremony (Reese Witherspoon Is Flower Girl!).

2) Britney Spears Drives Car Into Crowd Of Writer's Guild Strikers With Kids In Back Seat: Asks Tina Fey To Get Her A Frappuccino

3) Heidi Klum Has Back Fat!

4) FDA Says That A Pack A Day Is Good For Baby: Nicole Richie Rejoices!

5) Angelina Jolie: "I'm Really A Man (But Brad Still Loves My Ass!)"

6) Tom Cruise Wants Another Baby: Plans to Impregnate Self And Carry To Term (Katie Smiles And Nods!)

You think I make this shit up? At least one of these stories is confirmably true. And we still don't know if Travis is dead or alive, so I advise suspension of disbelief on all fronts until further notice.

Save the Date: Nicole Richie's Having A Baby Shower

Whit Honea — Wed, 14 Nov 2007 21:52:00 GMT

In Touch has somehow got their grubby little hands on the 'save the date' card sent out for Nicole Richie's baby shower. I don't think you really need to save the date. You're not invited. Don't worry, I'll sneak out coconut shrimp for everyone.

Angry Neighbors Deny Crib To Nicole Richie and Joel Madden! The Nerve!

sweatpantsmom — Tue, 13 Nov 2007 23:40:00 GMT

Who turns away a pregnant lady? Homeowners in an exclusive neighborhood in Southern California, that's who. Nicole Richie and Joel Madden were turned away from a gated community where they recently made an offer on a home because their potential neighbors were concerned with the paparazzi becoming a nuisance. People these days! So a few hoards of photographers with bright lights and cameras ruin your lawn and trample your flower beds every couple of days - what's the big deal?

Since Joel and Nicole are close personal friends of mine, I'd like to extend an invitation to them to crash at my place until the baby comes. Free room and board, and I make a killer cappuccino. So come on over, guys! Or at least return my emails. You know, no hard feelings about the restraining order you took out. Call me!

Pregnant Celebrities: The List!

Whit Honea — Mon, 12 Nov 2007 02:03:00 GMT

There must be something in the water. There sure are a lot of pregnancy rumors floating around. For instance:

Brooke Burke following up Heaven Rain with a new baby. She should name the kid Chocolate.
Keira Knightley dresses the part.
Are the hormones making Britney Spears crazy?
Angelina Jolie is rumored to be pregnant. She is definitely naked.
Jeri Ryan is expecting a girl.
Jessica Seinfeld is not pregnant, but if she was she'd sneak cauliflower into the breast milk.
Desperate housewife Nicollete Sheridan is having Michael Bolton's baby. That's the word on Wisteria.
Apparently J-Lo and Marc Anthony are expecting someone new on the block. CONFIRMED!
Jordan does two things- show her stuff and make babies.
Giada De Laurentiis has a bun in her oven.
Xtina's finally admitted the obvious.
~~Bob Dylan~~ Cate Blanchett is with #3.
Nicole Richie is smokin' hot.
Ellen DeGeneres isn't just crossing picket lines!
Katie Holmes- I'm guessing the marathon disproved this rumor.
Halle Berry is enjoying the fruits of her labor, but not as much as her husband.
Do we hear the sound of little Posh feet? The Beckham boys could use a sister!
Julianna Margulies and a shotgun.
Jessica Alba? Again?
Katharine McPhee married and expecting?

See? That's a lot, right?

I Cornered, I Mean, Met Nicole Richie and Joel Madden in a Hallway at the Hannah Montana Concert and They Were So Totally Human

sweatpantsmom — Fri, 09 Nov 2007 19:50:00 GMT

Meet my new BFFs, Joel and Nicole. Okay, they don't exactly know yet that we'll be texting each other on a regular basis and hanging at each other's houses playing Monopoly, but they will soon.

I took my girls to the Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus concert at Staples Center on Wednesday night, and ran into the expectant couple in a hallway. Who knew they were Disney fans? They posed for pictures, signed autographs and chatted with my girls and acted just like normal people, except with better clothes and more money. Joel only looked slightly annoyed when I asked him for their address so we could all come over for a barbecue this weekend.

Okay, I know I haven't always been nice to them here on FameCrawler, making fun of their unborn baby and Nicole's DUI woes, but all that's changed. Now, expect gushing posts from me on Joel's paternal skills or see me come to their defense when my fellow writers make fun of Nicole's thin arms. I heart Nicole and Joel, people. And the only thing standing between me and Nicole's upcoming baby shower? A big beefy bodyguard and a restraining order. BFFs 4 Ever!

Nicole Richie Heads For 'The Hills'

HerBadMother — Thu, 08 Nov 2007 20:15:00 GMT

Expectant mom Nicole Richie has been spotted of late hanging out with Hills star Lauren Conrad, who, so far as we know, is not an expectant mom.

No word on whether either one of them was chain-smoking or drinking, which is too bad, because that would make a way better story than 'Nicole Richie Hangs Out With Lauren Conrad.' Not as good as 'Pregnant Lauren Conrad Seeks Parenting Tips From Nicole Richie,' but still, better.

Nicole Richie Goes Beatnik

It's really hard to type this and snap at the same time.

Pregnant Nicole Richie was photographed on her way to (I'm guessing) a poetry reading. I don't know that Jack Kerouac would approve of that bag.

Of course there is also this explanation:

Nicole Richie Is Shocked And Appalled That People Would Doubt Her Judgment

HerBadMother — Thu, 01 Nov 2007 18:33:00 GMT

It's one of the most enduring stories about women and womanhood: that the moment a woman becomes with child, she immediately turns into a paragon of virtue and moral fortitude. The rough edges soften, the bad habits slide away; nothing, but nothing, will come between that woman and the safety of her unborn child.

It's a nice story, but a totally bogus one. Still, that's not stopping Nicole Richie and her publicists from using it.

In response to reports that she'd been caught smoking while pregnant, Nicole Richie said the following: "It's really very sad and hurtful that journalists don't believe in checking facts before writing false and unsubstantiated stories about my health and my pregnancy," she wrote in a statement released to Access Hollywood. "The healthy birth of my child is my number one priority."

Okay, so: I'm willing to believe that the health of her child is a top priority for Nicole. But I find her outrage amusing. I mean, her career - such as it is - is built upon reporters writing unsubstantiated stories about her and her cronies (and, please - like she never dropped a tip or two about herself - or, better, Paris - to Page Six?) Her raison d'etre has been the gossip mill, and it was fuelled, in large part, by the decidedly unhealthy lifestyle that she flaunted in front of the cameras. Drug use? DUI? Party party party and party some more? Check, check and check. That some enterprising gossip columnists thought that it might not be beyond the realm of possibility that Nicole Richie was - gasp - sucking on a Winston during pregnancy is hardly shocking. Does anyone really believe that Nicole has gone all soft and cuddly and organic in her maternity? I thought not.

So, I'll give her the benefit of the doubt on this one, but she really might want to do some work on her self-reflectivity.

Nicole Richie is Only Warming the Baby

Whit Honea — Tue, 25 Sep 2007 14:25:00 GMT

This is either a pregnant Nicole Richie in a hot tub or a very gassy Nicole Richie in a really small pool. You decide.

Now that we have an actual picture (see link above) I guess the baby isn't getting cooked so much as lightly broiled. That's a relief.

Baby Danger: Is Nicole Richie Dumber Than We Were Led to Believe?

Whit Honea — Tue, 25 Sep 2007 00:22:00 GMT

I would have thought that even Nicole Richie would understand that having "one in the oven" was just a figure of speech, but apparently not. The pregnant socialite was spotted in Hawaii dipping her big ol' belly in the very bubbly jacuzzi. Nicole, don't cook the baby!!

This, for those of you that have never read the rules and regulations on a jacuzzi sign, is a no-no. You also aren't supposed to pee in it our make noise after 10pm. Then again it says no alcohol too, so I guess the rules are open to interpretation.

Splash has the actual photo here. We had to improvise.

SEX: What Nicole and Joel Don't Know

Whit Honea — Sun, 23 Sep 2007 21:46:00 GMT

Hey, you! Back off. They're not peeking and neither can we. You see, Nicole and Joel don't want to know about the sex.

Sure, they know something about it. Richie didn't get pregnant by eating watermelon after kissing a boy. In this case Madden. At least I don't think so.

The sex I'm referring to is the gender of the coming baby.Earlier this week Joel revealed that he and Nicole don't plan on learning the sex of their baby. They want a surprise. I don't blame them. My wife and I did the same thing. Twice. There are only so many good surprises left you know.

Madden said, "We are waiting to find out if it is a boy or a girl. We don't even know. So right now it's an 'it', which sounds wrong. We call it 'the baby'. When we talk to it, it's 'you'. I'm excited. It's the best thing that has ever happened to us. It's awesome.

"The baby has started kicking and I've already gone out and bought a stroller and a playpen for the nursery."

Yeah, we've seen the stroller. What's the nursery look like, a Chuck E. Cheese?

Nicole Richie Afraid She's too Soft to be a Mommy

Whit Honea — Sun, 23 Sep 2007 20:24:00 GMT

Nicole Richie and her flotation device waded out into the Pacific while vacationing in Hawaii. A lot of people use the beaches of Hawaii to forget it all. Nicole, however, has a lot on her mind.

It's being said that she is concerned about her pampered upbringing and that she doesn't feel ready for the responsibility of being a parent. "Her major concern is whether she can cope. Nicole has spent most of her life, since her early teens, partying, making big money in TV and being treated as a celebrity. Now she's got to open up to the most important person in her life - her baby."

You can see why she looks so perplexed. Whenever I feel concern over my pampered upbringing I like to slum it in Hawaii like some sort of commoner and really get my head together. I hope she finds whatever she's looking for.

Nicole Richie Skins Entire Cow, Makes Moo Moo from Hide

Whit Honea — Fri, 07 Sep 2007 23:15:00 GMT

Et tu Nicole? Et tu? Look at her, just standing there in a pool of blood. The horror. The horror.

Am I taking this too far if I mention the udders?

The thing is, that shit could happen. I bet she would scratch the eyes out of some saucy bovine.

Okay, she's actually at some fashion crap (the Conde Nast Fashion Rocks Concert at NYC’s Radio City Music Hall), and that carpet is actually really red. She didn't skin a cow or make the ~~curtains~~ dress. Fine, I admit it.

I'm standing by the udders though. Or as close as she'll let me.

Nicole Richie and Joel Madden Pose for Unposed Pictures

Whit Honea — Mon, 03 Sep 2007 19:03:00 GMT

I got a memo that Nicole Richie was jonesin' for some FameCrawler love. Here's some, and even some XOXO for her little Madden too.

Nicole and Joel were spotted in NYC hanging out in Central Park. This is as lovey-dovey as I've seen them. Tender even.

Supposedly these are candid shots, but they look a little posed to me. Like Sears portrait posed. I wonder if they bought the wallet package.

Nicole Richie Wants Natural Foods and Childbirth

Nicole Richie, spotted coming out of an organic vegan cuisine cafe, wants her childbirth to be just as natural as her lunch. Apparently she is playing it safe (and painful) and is opting to go through labor sans medication.

Come on Nicole, dance with who brought you, no drugs at all? Joel can still partake, right?

Lifestyles of the Rich and the Famous: Joel Madden Needs a Tissue

Oh, to be young, rich, and in love. Looks like Joel Madden has a runny nose, or perhaps some ketchup on his shirt. Luckily Nicole Richie is there with the assist.

"Wipe it with this," you can hear her saying. "Just don't throw it on the ground, put it in the trash."

It's sweet, really.

Nicole Richie and Baby Survive Miscarriage Scare

Whit Honea — Fri, 10 Aug 2007 10:57:00 GMT

The site AceShowBiz is reporting that Nicole Richie was recently taken to the hospital fearful of a possible miscarriage after she began to show excessive bleeding.

A source for the site states that doctors reportedly reassured Nicole that her baby was safe. She was encouraged to give the baby more nutrition. Ya think?

"Nicole was bleeding so much; it was really scary for her. They found out she's suffering from both a hormonal and nutritional deficiency," added the source.

I'm glad everything is okay, that can be scary.

Looks like it's time for Nicole to strap on the feedbag and get her grub on. Stat.
