Nicole Richie Literally Shopped Until She Dropped

Nicole reportedly fainted while doing a little retail therapy. Richie — who has admitted that she’s too thin but has denied that she has an eating disorder — collapsed while browsing at Kitson, a chic LA boutique, on July 15, according to Life & Style. “She was looking through a rack of clothes when she suddenly fainted and hit the floor,” an “eyewitness” told the mag. “The staff helped her to a chair and offered her something to eat. She shot back, ‘No!’ and mumbled something about it being ‘so hot.’” Although Richie turned away food, she did accept a glass of water, reports the mag, and after about 20 minutes “was steady enough to leave.” [source] I recently almost-fainted at JC Penney. Can you imagine those headlines? It had nothing to do with being hungry. I went to my pharmacy and decided to stop by the ghetto mall next door. I parked my car in the closest spot and then walked through the mall. The mall was EXTREMELY hot, I started to get weak and started to head back to my car. While I was walking through JC Penney, the quickest way to my car, I was thisclose to fainting so I went into the dressing room, took off my shirt and sat down for a minute. It definitely wasn't the highlight experience of my life but it had nothing to do with my eating disorder. I almost fainted in Kitson once too. The night before was rough and I wasn't feeling 100%. Kitson is small and cramped. I ended up going out to my car and sitting with the roof down so I didn't throw up. I almost-faint a lot. I could go on and on with almost-fainting stories. I should carry smelling salts in my purse. So anyway, do Nicole Richie's hobbies include anything other than shopping and long walks on the beach?
