Nicole Richie’s Novel Turns Into TV Show

Nicole Richie just confirmed that her 2005 coming-of-age novel, The Truth About Diamonds, is being transformed into a TV show. The former Simple Life is even going to be part of the production, natch.

“I would definitely produce and definitely be in the show,” the socialite tells E! “[But] I don’t know if I need to be the star of this show. I’ve got a lot going on right now.”

The Truth About Diamonds is about this girl named Chloe Parker. She’s a club kid with a drug problem but manages to get her own series of “reality commercials” with her friend Simone. The book tells about Chloe’s struggle with fame, drugs, and romance.

WOULD YOU WATCH Nicole Richie’s book-turned-TV-show?

She’s so tacky and the people who find her all glamourous are tacky as well. She’s an insult to all the chic young women out there. She’s part of the generation M. MEDIOCRE

You know, I really wish Nicole Richie would let up with the self-loathing and stop trying to fool us with the endless raggedy blonde weaves. Honey , we KNOW you are at least half black because you have stated as much yourself repeatedly. I have no idea why she tries so hard to hide her frizzy hairlines and dark brown hair, BABY pictures don’t lie Nicole. We all know what you used to look like (a hell of a lot more ethnic).

Don’t like the sunglasses.

But Nicole producing while she has the baby and Joel is touring is a good idea. Nicole would be great acting in a sit-com.

She is smart, which is why she outgrew Paris. The girl has a lot going on. Those who are frustrated because she’s famous, well, YOU do something special to show what you think it should take, then shut up, okay?

She looks like Carol Channing-seriously. That is not a good thing for those of you who don’t know who Carol Channing is.

Yes ..Why Not.. @ 07/12/2008 at 9:58 am

Sure i will watch it. The chick picked herselfup dusted herself off and is not playing the young HW brat anymore (as far as i know).
Everybody deserves a second chance. I dont believe most of what i read anyway onless the actual person is giving an interview.

So yeah.. be there ..be square.
