Nicole Richie is showing off her fab figure and new clothing line, Winter Kate, in the new issue of the Marie Claire UK, where once again she addresses those pesky anorexia rumors.

"I felt it was a little unfair to say someone has an eating disorder when they don’t. It’s extremely insulting and irresponsible. An eating disorder is serious and it’s a disease." We totally agree with that assessment, but we also think there's no way to look at her body now versus her body in 2006 and NOT raise the question:



Apparently, we weren't the only one. Nicole says that usually she just tried to ignore the rumors, but "The only time it bothered me was when I was in a store trying on shoes and these girls came up to me - they were probably like 13 or 14 - and their mother came over, and she said, 'Are you taking care of yourself, because my girls think that you're not.' That was upsetting," the five-one star said.

But just look at her now! A fashion icon and MILF as her partner, Joel Madden tweeted yesterday. "MILF ALERT," he bragged. "Dayummmm. I'm patting myself on the back right now. High Five me."

It's not over 'til it's over and Michael Lohan is NOT finished with his battle against what he claims are legal injustices perpetrated against him by his ex-girlfriend's legal team.

Here's what Michael tells X17online about his arrest yesterday and his ongoing legal battle against Erin Muller ...

"Because of the leaks and lies by my former fiance's (Erin Muller's) lawyer, Bryan Konoski, I am left with no choice but to let the court of public opinion first hear and see what Bryan has done and how he has lied to Erin, the courts, and the general public.

First, he solicited Hailey Glassman out on Facebook to obtain her as client. In Hailey's case, he tried to used my name to get Hailey to leave her ethical, loyal and more accomplished attorney, Stephanie Ovadia. According to ethics and standards, this is a BIG no no in the legal community.

Second, on Bryan's website, he uses other attorney's cases to comment on, making it look like they are his cases.

Third, he submitted a list of slanderous and defamatory accusations, to try to defame me, which he filed as a Clayton Motion, but instead of sending it to the court, he sent it to the press. He then withdrew the motion to the court, because the 'damage was done.' The very accusations Erin made, weren't things I did, but things Erin did to me.

My attorney, Tony Grandinette, could have and still can rebut this motion, which in essence would prove the accusations to be lies, but as professional and respectful as Tony is, he held off.

Fourth, my attorney's and I have been asking for Erin and I, to mediate this case in an effort to put our differences aside and go our own ways peacefully. Instead, it is my opinion, and has become evident, that our requests have not been clearly expressed to Erin.

Fifth, recently, when Erin was charged with kicking me in the face, she pleaded guilty to an ACOD (acceptance of guilt in contemplation of dismissal), Bryan told the press the charges were dropped. It was brought to my attention, that he leaked this [to the press] and when [a journalist] called me to ask about the charges being dropped, I said they weren't. I explained that an ACOD is a plea of guilty, but if the defendant commits a crime again, the charges can be restored. When Bryan heard this from [the journalist], Bryan got extremely upset because he misrepresented the facts. He called my attorney, Tony and said that now he wouldn't mediate because Erin was now in tears and her family was upset. How is this possible when my comment was never printed and Erin or her family were never contacted?

This guy is so full of "IT," he is a phony and he isn't looking out for Erin's best interest.
HE, Bryan Konski did this!! My attorneys and/or I didn't want to speak out to the press about additional charges. But Bryan has left us no choice.

But now, if we go to trial, the WORLD with see and hear the truth. Unfortunately, Erin's entire history, along with her family will have to come out, in order to corroborate Erin's actions, behavior and accusations.

But first, we start with the ethics and grievance committees, to file complaints against, Mr. Bryan Konoski, for his unethical practices.

I am TRULY sorry that it has come to this. I really am. I spent over two years with Erin, I loved her every day of the two plus years and I NEVER cheated on her. If I did, let that person come forward.

Instead, it was all done to me. I only wish Erin the best."

Gwen Stefani just can't resist!

Yesterday the hot mama took her darling boys to the park, and we got dozens of precious shots of the beautiful family enjoying the January sunshine. Not only that, but we also snapped Kingston showing little Zuma some brotherly love - how cute is this!?

Last night Matthew McConaughey and his babymama Camila Alves celebrated her 28th birthday at BeauRivage restaurant in Malibu, and it looks like Matty went all out in the party preparations. Not only did he bust out the balloons, but you know it's a special event when he's not wearing flip flops!

Matthew also posted a picture on his website of his newborn daughter Vida, who was born on January 3, and she's absolutely adorable! And how great does Camila look? You'd never know she was in the delivery room less than 4 weeks ago!

Lindsay's dad Michael was arrested again yesterday for violating the restraining order against his ex-girlfriend Erin Muller by calling her at work on January 21.

Lohan was arrested for the same thing back in December but blames his problems on other people. He tells X17online.com exclusively, that he wants to "nail that phony con man lawyer of Erin."

We heart matching outfits! Especially when they're on a mother/daughter pair as cute as these two...

Katie Holmes - who was recently at Sundance to promote her latest film, The Romantics - is back in Los Angeles and spending time with Suri.

X17 photogs spotted the duo heading into a dance class earlier today wearing matching red dresses! Too bad Tom wasn't around to see 'em, but I guess he's busy playing with guns and Cameron Diaz!

Sidebar, who do you think is the better dancer, Katie or Suri?

First of all, just look at that beaming smile! So adorable.

Here's Brad and Angelina's Zahara being driven home after school eating a delicious car ride snack - Cheetos! Hey, her 'rents go to Mickey D's, why not let their kids eat Cheetos?

But this isn't the first time we've seen one of Brangelina's kids with the orange snack food:



Shiloh enjoyed a bag herself back in October 2008! Guess it's a fave food of the entire family!

Season nine has only just gotten underway, but with the news that it will be Simon's last, we just can't help wondering who will replace him as the feistiest judge on Idol?

Rumor has it that Idol bosses are seriously considering former Sony Music chief (and Mariah Carey's ex) Tommy Mottola. But Tommy's name also came up in discussions to become a judge on Cowell's show X-Factor!

Madonna's longtime business partner Guy Oseary has also been mentioned as a fill-in, as was Interscope boss Jimmy Iovine. We can appreciate that the folks at Fox want to fill Simon's seat with someone who's got as much (or more) industry experience, but with Randy and Kara's expertise, should they go for someone with the wow factor instead?

Conan O'Brien's currently out of a job and said to be in negotiations with Fox -- Could CoCo replace SiCo?

Perhaps another tight-shirt wearing reality tv sensation like The Situation is what Idol needs to re-energize?

Jessica Simpson's boobs are much bigger than Simon's moobs, but we think the blonde isn't quite as air-headed as she seems when it comes to music!

Kanye West is known for his very public put-downs, could "I'm a let you finish" be the new "If I'm being honest?"

And Martha Stewart may be a felon, but she thinks she can fill the Brit's shoes best, offering her "fair" and "impartial" opinion.

But what do YOU think?
