Is Nicole Richie planning a nose job?


Nicole Richie is an obvious perfectionist about her body. She starves herself thin, and has admitted wanting to change her nose:

“If I could change anything about myself it would be my nose. I see a lot of nose jobs in Los Angeles but it’s a big decision.”

This may be her way of letting the press know that she’s about to undergo plastic surgery. Richie was photographed outside a plastic surgeon’s office on May 9th.

She needs to see a therapist and work out her issues. From what I learned from the handful of college-level psychology courses I attended while nursing a hangover, Richie suffers from body dysmorphic disorder:

No matter how much weight is lost, or no matter how much food is thrown up, the person with anorexia or bulimia will constantly see the same overweight, vile, failure in the mirror. This typically leads to very destructive and even deadly methods of weight loss in a desperate attempt to lose the distorted perception…

Even though Body Dysmorphic disorder isn’t just shown in cases of eating disorders (someone afflicted with BDD can obsess not about weight, but instead about their hair, nose, chest, etc.), it still hurts and ruins the lives of whoever is afflicted with it.

Meanwhile Richie has said that she’s not friends with Paris Hilton anymore because she’s just too good for her:

She tells Vanity Fair, “When I got out of rehab, I had to figure out what path to go down, and part of that included taking certain people out of my life. “I just decided I didn’t want to be her (Hilton’s) friend anymore. We’re just two completely different people; we don’t have that much in common.”

Sounds like a junior-high level assessment of friendship.

Nicole looks like she has gained a little bit of essential weight. In these pictures of her shilling for Sprint at the E3 convention on Wednesday she looks slightly more healthy. Maybe her confession to Vanity Fair about being too thin helped her to eat a little bit.
