Nicole Richie Does Harper's Bazaar
Nicole Richie is the cover mom for Harper's Bazaar's June 2008 issue. She opens up about her rocker beau Joel Madden, her beautiful daughter Harlow Kate Winter Madden and her new life as a mother.
On putting Harlow on the cover of People Magazine: “The day before it came out, I was nervous, because there was going to be a picture of my daughter everywhere. But if I didn’t put a picture out, it would have been 10 times worse. I wanted to stop people trying to get pictures of her. I was just being a protective mom.”
On her celebrity BFFs: “I feel like my group of five to ten friends, they really love [Harlow], like she’s theirs … my friends never go outside for smoke breaks anymore, they don’t curse, they are definitely more demure. It’s actually been really interesting.”
On her future nuptials and having more kids: One day, yeah -not tomorrow, not today. We are committed to our family. I’m 26. I’ve definitely had a very eventful year. So right now, it’s about me enjoying my time with my daughter. I want five children: twin boys and three girls. I’ve wanted that since I was a little girl.”
On her new body: "Half my wardrobe is already stretched. Not all my clothes fit the same. I don't even think it's a weight thing; I think your body just changes after you have a baby. I don't care either way, but, I'm not used to having a tank top or bra underneath my clothes. You always hear that people with blond hair or larger breasts get more attention, but I never really thought that was real! I like wearing shirts that are a bit see-through because before it didn't really matter. But now it's like, Uh-oh, I could get arrested."
On her new life in Brentwood: "You know, I went through a stage of thinking that once you had a baby, you moved to Brentwood, had a white picket fence, and it changed your entire life. But I love where I am right now. Every single thing is for Harlow. Joel took me out last week, and he was like, 'Why don't we go out and have a shopping day?' But I ended up only going to kid stores. I didn't get to buy shoes or anything."
She has genuinely changed for the better. She sounds like a good girl now and 'Nicole high on drugs and going wrong way on the highway' almost seems like forever ago!
Yes, it's only a matter of time...
No, she's better than that. Plus she has Billy Ray to protect her.
