Nicole Richie SLOW Chase In The Hollywood Hills!

I was assigned to cover the Chateau Marmont Wednesday and just as I was about to take a break, a mini traffic jam sprung up at the base of Marmont Lane. Nicole Richie drove up, followed closely by about 8 cars full of paparazzi. She drove right into the garage, so no one got any shots. But she left soon after and somehow I ended up breifly leading the chase Eastbound on Sunset! Now we all know this is a pregnant woman so when I say "chase" I want to be clear that no one was speeding and we all gave her plenty of room. If anything she drove extra slowly, i assume for safety but also to force some of us to pass her. I passed by her and waved, and managed to get a shot of her REFLECTED in my side mirror at a stoplight! I didn't say it was a good shot! She headed up the hill and back to her gated home, where the worlds slowest chase came to a close. Several of the other cars parked to wait for her next move, but I'd had enough.

About Item9

HOLLYWOOD, 2009: Dangerous and deadly car chases. Drug-fueled starlets refusing to wear underpants. D-listers begging to be photographed. Beefy bouncers with headsets and no brains. Lap dances in the gutter. Has-beens stealing your kush.

Everyone had a story, and most of them were working on a script based on that story. The landscape had changed, and what had once been a glamorous and dreamy boulevard was now a dark and seedy underground of hanger-ons and fame junkies.

That's where I came in. I could say I did it for the money, but that would make me a liar just like the rest of them. The truth is I was drawn to it. Like an accident on the side of the road. I didn't want to look, but my camera guided me, daring me not to ignore my destiny.
