Nicole Richie is all-smiles on the Red Carpet.

She’s a celebrity, has two babies, has a rock star as a significant other and a famous Dad… She’s Nicole Richie. Now, once again, there’s a possibility that she’ll be heading to a TV set near you. This time, not in something reality-based. Nicole is working closely with writers and producers to get a TV show about her off the ground. The deal, inked with ABC as a potential host, has been in the workings for some time, including a first try which didn’t go over so well earlier this year.

This specific series will follow Nicole, playing herself, as she navigates through the world of being a celebrity mom in Hollywood and juggling her career with raising a family. Not exactly a stretch for the star who, in addition to acting, also runs a successful clothing line called House of Harlow.

No specific details on the show have emerged besides the basic plot point, except the fact that Jeff Rake is on board. Rake is a writer who helped pen some witty dialogue for Alicia Silverstone, when she made a venture to TV in Miss Match. Considering that show lacked viewers, but was praised by critics, here’s to hoping Richie has a great team behind her.

No stranger to the small screen, Richie was able to flex her acting muscles in a fun turn on Chuck. While guest-starring on the series, she was able to mix some action with some comedy and came out on top. If the series fails, I’m positive she’ll have something to fall back on. Possibly one of her other ventures… writing… perfume… jewelry…

“I love collaboration, anything that can combine fashion and art is very Fluxus,” Paquette said of his company and the art they show off to the community.

Paquette decided to create trendy dresses made of newspaper for two of the statues because it incorporates fashion with an artistic edge. The Avant Garde headpieces offer dimension and shape to the mannequins.
