Nicole Richie's court case is this month,and if there are any Nicole fans out there, please use this banner WHICH WAS NOT MADE BY ME.
Once we find a contact address, we should be making a e-card for her

[Sophii3x]

Please support Nicole people!

And Chris I asked a HUGE Nicole fan if he knew an address for fans to send fanmail. He said the only thing he knew was the address for the block of apartments she lives in.

[Mrluvaluva]

Why should I support her? (It might help if people knew what they were supposed to be supporting her for).

[Ella]

Ohhh what's her court case for?

[Princess]

Done!

[lily.]

What's she done?

[Sophii3x]

Thanks Laura!

She was arrested for DUI (Driving Under the Influence). She pleaded not guilty so her court case is on the 30th to decide wether she's going to jail or not.

Look on the courtcase thread for info!

[lily.]

Ok, lemme have a looksee, then I'll come back.

[lily.]

No. I will not support Nicole Richie. She was drunk driving.

Anyone who supports that should take some time to read Jacqui Saburido's life story and see if you still think it's ok to drink and drive just because you are a celebrity.

Read that, and then come back and post your opinion.

[Sophii3x]

She pleaded not guilty!!

[Arneldo]

She did the crime, She can do the time.

[lily.]

I assume she was breathalysed. And I note from the story that this isn't the first time she has done it either.

I'm sorry Sophie, I know you are a fan, but I can't and won't condone drunk driving.

[Sophii3x]

She has been arrested about 3 times before for her driving. And if she if she did do wrong, she should be punished. But i'm praying that it isn't jail!

Iv'e gone all upset now. Give me 10 mins to calm down!

I’ve never been a Paris/Nicole fan, but I haven’t hated them either and have also commended them if they did good stuff etc.
My take on this is, firstly to be honest I can’t see Nicole spending time in prison anyway – something or other will bail her out. And isn’t it something like 5 days if she does go in?
And OMG at that drink-driving story… I think it’s terrible and I wish her luck in what she’s doing to promote awareness. She was such a pretty girl as well. Drink driving is terrible.

[lily.]

Yes it is Ash. And that's why I posted the link. It wasn't for shock-value. It's a story I read about a long time ago and I saw the girl on TV as well, telling her story, and it just brings home the reality of drunk-driving.

I don't hate Nicole Richie. I watched The Simple Life and enjoyed it. This isn't about Nicole. This is about the issue of drinking and driving. I'm not prepared to make light of it just because it's a celebrity. I would feel the same if it were my best friend doing it. It's wrong, and unacceptable.

I might sound harsh, but it's something I feel very strongly about and I wont support it.

[Dan_]

If she did it then she wont get no support from me, anyone silly enough to drink drive deserves what they get.

[Mrluvaluva]

Just because she pleaded "not guilty your honour" Soph, doesn't mean she isn't. Do we have any evidence?

[Sophii3x]

ARGHHH some people are soo annoying. Iv'e been defending Nicole nearly all day about this and other stuff. I nearly got banned on another forum when this girl called Nicole a 'stick thin twatish rich junkie'. I went mad, and obviously argued back. This girl is a Hilary Duff fan and she was bringing up stuff about Nicole and Joel and calling Nicole a slag. I got soo annoyed. I ended up apologising to her in the end, and now she's starting it all over again! Grrrrr.. I'm just gonna ignore her!

FFS.. I'm just going to talk to Laura now! Iv'e done enough defending today!

[lily.]

The thing is though. We aren't slating Nicole. We are just not supporting her when she clearly done wrong.

I'm impartial until I see some evidence.

I suppose a lot of people are similar though. I know I am. I defend celebrities I’m a fan of when it comes to issues, and try to see the good. Which is exactly what Chris and Sophie in particular have been doing… now with Nicole, previously with Danielle. It’s just one of those things. However this time, something far more serious/dangerous/life-threatening is involved and the story you posted Linda, whilst you didn’t intend it to necessarily, really worked in terms of shock-value. Whilst I may defend celebs when it comes to some issues, I really do doubt I’d defend a celeb I’m a fan of when it came to something like this. I’m trying to consider it now. A lot of the time it depends on the celeb, how big a fan you are, and perhaps I just don’t have a particular dominant one.

[lily.]

Hey, I aint here to change anyone else's point of view. I just posted mine.

[Chrizzle]

Why is everyone suddenly saying she definately did it??
Shes having a court case, which means she may not be guilty.

[Bells]

My view is:-

I'm not a fan of Paris/Nicole even though I don't hate them, and if they do something I may admire I’ll compliment them. However, I don’t agree with drink driving. And like I said earlier, Nicole probably has an amazing lawyer etc. battling her case for her, so she may not even go to prison, and if she did it wouldn’t be for long. But at the same time I’m trying to understand how Parcole fans are true fans and support them no matter what – and obviously that must be why they can continuously defend her.

[Sophii3x]

Has this turned into the 'Don't Support Nicole' thread or something?

I'm off to bed.
