Fashion’s Night Out is arguably the biggest event held during New York Fashion Week to kick-off the week-long festivities. It’s when celebs pile into hundreds and hundreds of stores across the country (mainly in New York City) after hours, and pose for pictures, do press, hang out with their celebrity friends and do some late-night shopping.

Held last Thursday night (Sep 8), this year’s Fashion’s Night Out featured appearances from many celebrities, including Solange, Chanel Iman, Nicole Richie, Mary J. Blige, Rachel Roy, Amare Stoudemire, Angela Simmons, Dwyane Wade, Ne-Yo, Mary Kate & Ashley Olsen, and more!

According to Radaronline:

The provocative images of the Dirrty pop star — who split from her husband of five years, music producer Jordan Bratman last year — were on a digital storage card that was found in a French hotel. The revealing collection is time-stamped from June to November, 2010.

RadarOnline.com has seen 109 of the photographs, sent to us by a man who was attempting to sell Aguilera’s private album. He claimed the card was discarded in an upscale hotel room where Aguilera and Rutler had stayed.

Fifteen of the images were taken on September 17, 2010 at Richie’s bachelorette bash in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.

The report goes on to state:

Aguilera is pictured drinking, smoking a cigar and posing with Richie at the star’s soiree, with flowers in her hair. Richie, who married rocker husband Joel Madden two months later, is also caught on camera in a bikini near the beach with a blow-up male doll strapped to her.

There are also several personal and romantic shots of 30-year-old Aguilera and Rutler, who worked as a set assistant on the film Burlesque, in which she starred. In one, the pair are seen kissing passionately at different times and in various locations and laying in bed together.

Other images, that RadarOnline.com has viewed, show:

* Aguilera with two naked men who appear to be strippers performing at another bachelorette party, which Lindsay Lohan’s ex-girlfriend Samantha Ronson also attended;

Your thoughts on the pics?

Socialite friends Khloe Kardashian and Nicole Richie were seen arriving at a gym together earlier this week (Jan 10) in their hometown of Los Angeles.

The two looked geared up and ready to work-out, although it doesn’t look like there’s much Nicole needs to work on. Khloe and all that junk in the trunk on the other hand……… lol, we kid! By the way, her new hair color is not a good look. The Kardashians are naturally dark beauties, and any time any of them attempts to go light it ends up looking a hot mess! But anyway…

Nicole Richie and Joel Madden made their 4-year romance official by tying the knot over the weekend in a private wedding ceremony at Nicole’s father Lionel Richie‘s estate in Beverly Hills.

The couple exchanged wedding vows in front of 150 guests, including Khloe Kardashian and mom Kris Jenner, Gwen Stefani and husband Gavin Rossdale, Samantha Ronson and more. Invited celebs who could not make the ceremony included Kim Kardashian and Christina Aguilera.

An insider says Joel’s twin brother and Good Charlotte bandmate Benji Madden was the best man, while Samantha Ronson served as Nicole’s maid of honor. And you’ll NEVER guess who officiated the star-studded wedding. Hit the link below to find out…

According to US Magazine, the wedding was officiated by Rev. Run, who doesn’t have “Reverend” in front of his name just because it looks good. Apparently, the Run DMC founding member (real name: Joseph Simmons) is an ordained minister!

“Joel and Nicole have looked up to Rev. Run, so they wanted him to officiate,” a guest of the wedding told UsMagazine.com exclusively. Explains the guest: “They both appreciate his family values and he is an inspiration for both. They both also respect his faith, too.”

Among the invited celebrity guests, friends and close relatives was a trained elephant.

But one attendee stood way out: a trained elephant was spotted being led into the Los Angeles estate of Richie’s father, music superstar Lionel Richie, where two tents were set up for the ceremony on a warm evening. How the elephant fit in wasn’t immediately known. (People)

Joel and Nicole’s 2-year-old daughter Harlow and their 15-month-old son Sparrow were also part of the celebration, serving as the flower girl and ring bearer.

Thoughts?

It’s being widely reported that the couple are set to marry this weekend in a small, private ceremony only attended by relatives and close friends, including Joel’s brother Benji Madden, Samantha Ronson, Khloe Kardashian and more.

According to E! Online, the wedding will be held at Nicole’s father’s Lionel Richie’s Beverly Hills estate.

The details are below:

Richie will reportedly wear a Marchesa dress when she walks down the aisle. The bride-to-be and her close friend and personal stylist Simone Harouche went to a fitting last week with Marchesa in NYC. “It went very well,” a source tells us.

A source familiar with the wedding prep says Richie wanted to keep the guest list limited to the closest friends and family. Part of the reason? While her dad’s mansion boasts 28 rooms, space on the grounds is actually limited.

Rental trucks were seen arriving at the gates of Lionel’s mansion where ladders and other preparation equipment could be seen in the driveway. Celeb guests will include Joel’s brother Benji, along with friends Samantha Ronson and Khloé Kardashian. Kim Kardashian and Richie’s former BFF Paris Hilton will apparently not be in attendance.

Celebrity socialite Nicole Richie will be making an encore appearance on NBC’s action-comedy series “Chuck”.  Richie appeared on the show two years ago as a “bad girl” chick named Heather who gets an a** whopping handed to her by detective agent Sarah during a tough fight scene.  Well for some odd reason that wasn’t enough…. and she’s back for revenge!

In her returning episode, Heather somehow ends up in the underground CIA base after a prison transfer goes sour. She also shows up at a very challenging time for Sarah and Chuck who are having a few troubles in their relationship.

The episode is set to air in October. Make sure you Chuck fans out there check it out!

Finally after 3 years and 2 children, Nicole Richie and Joel Madden have informed all friends and family that they will be tying the knot. Richie confirmed the news during a taping of David Letterman’s Late Show Monday. Good Charlotte‘s front man Madden had his say via Twitter and revealed that the couple have secretly been engaged for some time now.

“Yep. I’m engaged. Very happy,” Madden wrote. “Yeah we’ve been engaged for a while so you’re all kind of late on that. But thanks for the hooplah all the same.” Taking a knock at the tabloids who have long-speculated over the couple’s possible breakups, make-ups and secret weddings, Madden added a note highlighting their discreet inner circle. “P.S. that’s why I love my family and friends. None of them are sources. All good tight lipped people who let us enjoy it! Thanks everybody.”

The music video for “We Are the World: 25 for Haiti” debuted Friday night (Feb 12) during the opening ceremony for the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver.

This version of the song, featuring vocals from Justin Bieber, Jennifer Hudson, Lil Wayne, Janet Jackson, Miley Cyrus, Jamie Foxx, Mary J. Blige, Kanye West, T-Pain, Usher, Wyclef Jean and much more, is much more contemporary than the original but it fits today’s music era. The song’s original writer and singer Michael Jackson also appears in the song and video (his sister Janet sings the first chorus with footage of Mike thrown in). They also kept one of MJ’s original parts and show footage of him singing it (Nice!).

The 25th Anniversary recording features over 80 artists and performers. The recording of We Are The World 25 For Haiti embodied the same enthusiasm, sense of purpose and generosity as the original recording 25 years ago. Every one of the artists who participated, regardless of genre or generation, walked into the room with their hearts and souls completely open to coming together to help the people of Haiti.

The video shows footage of Haiti and the efforts surrounding its repair, along with footage of the artists mentioned above and more recording the song in the studio. Check it out below…

In an effort to raise money for Haitian earthquake relief, a gang of singers, rappers, producers, musicians and other celebrities showed up at Jim Henson Studios yesterday (Mon. Feb 1) in Hollywood to record “We Are the World 25 Years for Haiti,” a remake of Michael Jackson‘s famous “We Are the World” song, which raised at least $30 million for African humanitarian programs 25 years ago.

Quincy Jones and Lionel Richie came together and rounded up folks like Kanye West, Lil Wayne, Jennifer Hudson, Wyclef Jean, Jamie Foxx, Justin Bieber, LL Cool J, Usher, Keri Hilson, Brandy and a ton of other celebrities to lay down vocals and instrumentals for the charity single.

The song and accompanying music video will premiere on NBC next Friday (Feb. 12th) during the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics. Check out 30+ pictures of celebrities banding together for a good cause below…

Nicole Richie and Joel Madden have another baby on the way (due sometime this summer) and have reportedly dropped $1.9 million dollars on a new crib. Not a baby crib though. The two purchased a newly renovated home featuring 5,400 square feet of space with four bedrooms and five bathrooms in the Hollywood Hills. Their nearly $2 million home also features a powder room, large living room, a guest house and a pool, complete with a poolside bar.

But will this big new home purchase bring on the sounds of wedding bells? Probably not in the near future, reports Star Magazine.

The reality TV queen turned designer recently told Larry King: “Right now, we’re really, really focused on our family… As far as feeling that need of commitment, we both really have that in each other.”

Star told you first that Nicole and the Good Charlotte rocker were trying for baby number two. They announced their baby news in February and the wee one is expected this summer.

Do you think Nicole and Joel should tie the knot? Think they have a good thing right now and should just go with it? Weigh in.
