How can you have no idea that mixing Vicodin and marijuana would affect your driving ability? Well that’s what Nicole Richie said this morning to Diane Sawyer during her interview on ABC. Somehow I don’t think she really has learned her lesson.

Here are some quotes from her ABC interview that will begin airing on Thursday and Ok! magazine.

Nicole on her pregnancy:

“I’m almost four months.” (ABC)

Nicole on the past year:

“I don’t consider it one of the worst. I think this was a blessing in disguise. This year has been full of lessons learned and soul-searching. … I will be really happy once I have done my jail time. I can start fresh.” (OK!)

Nicole on her guilty plea:

“I have a responsibility and it’s something that I did wrong, and if I could personally apologize to every single person who has lost a loved one from drunk driving, I would. Unfortunately, I can’t, but this is my way of paying my dues and taking responsibility and being an adult.” (ABC News)

Nicole on feeling remorse:

“I was watching CNN about a month ago, and they happened to be talking about young people driving under the influence. They were flashing little kids (on the screen) who were killed by drunk drivers, and it broke my heart. It was a big wake-up call.” (OK!)

Nicole on her sentence:

“It was a fair, standard sentence. I expected that.” (OK!)

Nicole on comparisons with Hilton’s sentence:

“We weren’t charged with the same thing. We had different judges. This isn’t a popularity contest, and it’s not up to people to compare my case with Paris’.” (OK!)

Nicole on why she was on a painkiller when she was arrested:

“I have really bad menstrual cramps.” (OK!)

Nicole on whether she has taken drugs since December:

“No.” (OK!)

Nicole on her favourite foods:

“Sushi. I’m not sure how great that is for me. I also love pizza; I’m a junk-food eater by nature.” (OK!)

So it’s all said and done. Well, not yet really, but it will be said and done during her interview with Diane Sawyer. The words are uttered, and the proud parents look…well, proud we guess. Check out the airing of this interview this Thursday and Friday on Good Morning America.

The most important question is…why is Joel literally towering over his baby mama? He’s like a giant!

I’m so super duper happy that E! has cancelled The Simple Life for many reasons and especially because of last night’s episode! In the episode jailbirds Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie are to help run an acting camp headed by the bananas Sally Kirkland. So for some stupid and offensive reason they decide to “get in character” and play two Black girls! Paris Hilton who has said the N-word several times before had no business portraying a Black woman and why would Nicole Richie have to dress up as something she already is (Nicole in the past during interview yelled, “I am black!” ). They both are completely and utterly whack!

This week has been the week of washed-up celebs. From Lindsay Lohan getting a DUI (again) to Drew Carey taking over the “Price Is Right” to previews of Cuba Gooding, Jr. in the new flick “Daddy Day Camp,” former talented stars have been washing-up in the news faster than Posh and Becks appear in the headlines. So, I’m suggesting a 24-hour coup d’etat for these stars to get it together!

Let’s start with Britney. Poor, poor, Britney. In the past few weeks she’s skinny-dipped in her skivvies, pissed off everyone she’s known since birth and wiped up dog poo with a 5 thousand dollar Zac Posen gown at an OK! Magazine photo shoot. She even went sailing with her young boys with no life jackets. Not a good mom move. COUP D’ETAT: Never thought I’d say this but where is K-Fed? He, mom, sis, fired manager, etc. need to sit her down, call her out and find her a help—and a stylist.

And then there’s Lindsay. Lindsay Nomam. Besides the fact that she was only out of rehab 11 days before she was chasing cars on coke, I just have to say why voluntary ankle bracelet, why? If you knew you were going to get drunk less than two weeks out of the alcohol pokie why call yourself out like that? COUP D’ETAT: Forget rehab. Lindsay needs to work, really work, at a shitty low-paying job like the rest of the 21 year-olds out there. Six weeks in rehab? Ha! Let’s see how she does substance free serving IN N’ OUT burgers for six weeks. Her ass will be sober and willing to work overtime on the set of sequel to the Parent Trap in 0-60 fast.

Finally, there’s Nicole Richie who on Friday was sentenced to 4 days in jail, 3 years probation and a $2000 fine for driving under the influence last year. Granted, she’s luckier than Paris but I’m sure that bun in the oven didn’t hurt the verdict. COUP D’ETAT: Food. Food. Food. Oh, and did I mention a meal. Oh wait, and can I get a side of a career?

There you have it. This week’s washed-up celebs who need to check themselves before they wreck themselves (seriously, Lindsay, are you listening?)

A pregnant Nicole Richie faced her last December wrong-way DUI charge at L.A. County Superior Court today was sentenced to serve four days in County Jail, pay $2048 in penalty fees and attend a 21-day alcohol education course. (Nicole was also credited for the six hours of time she has already served.)

I don’t really know how I feel about her punishment or lack there of but I do know thing, Nicole is one fierce b@#ch! Rocking over-sized sunglasses , a shapeless black dress and a black handbag that shut the court house down Nicole set the standard of how someone going to court/jail should look!
