I’m Dying to Know…

October 21, 2010 By Lena

… why Nicole Richie cut her hair. Well, truth be told, I hadn’t really given it much thought (read: couldn’t care less) until I saw the following headline on UsMagazine.com:

“Nicole Richie: Why I Chopped Off My Hair”

(Did you just click on the link above? Sorry, that’s 43 seconds of your life you won’t get back. I apologize.)

So, being that I had a few moments to spare (both boys were blissfully napping – gasp – at the same time) I decided to click on the link to uncover the critical reasoning behind her decision to go short.

Expecting to be motivated to do the same based on her rationale, I was surprised to see her response:

Really, Us Magazine? I just can’t blame Nicole for her weak answer – she wasn’t aware that you’d turn it into a lame-a** headline teasing folks into thinking she actually had an intellectual response to your momentous question. May I suggest an alternate headline – Nicole Richie: You’ll Never Know Why I Chopped Off My Hair.

But while we’re on the subject:

1) I don’t think she actually cut her hair; rather, she removed her hair extensions. Isn’t that what the Hollywood types do?
2) Ugh. (Shudders.) That is NOT a good photo. Zombielicious.
3) I still don’t know why she chopped off her hair! That headline is KILLING ME.

Sigh. Maybe some things are better left unsaid.

    Awesome post! Don't forget that the cut actually doesn't look that good. They chose a horrible picture to highlight this "groundbreaking" news ;)

    @Rachel – Ah, I knew I was forgetting something! That's right, I forgot to comment on the sub-par cut. Definitely not inspirational…

    OMG – this is so painful. I hate when the mags trick us like this and write stories about NOTHING!

    @silverbullet71 – Agreed! I hate Us Magazine period (I'm more of an InTouch kind of gal anyways)
