Nicole Richie: Fourth of July Beach Bliss

Nicole Richie: Fourth of July Beach Bliss

Sometimes a girl just needs time for herself.  And yesterday, Nicole Richie left her boyfriend Joel Madden and daughter Harlow Winter behind for an afternoon with some gal pals.

The paparazzi caught up to the former Simple Life cutie enjoying a day of fun in the sun at a beach party in Malibu, California.  She wore a short white cleavage-baring dress overtop a pair of denim shorts with a pair of sunglasses.

And it sounds like Britney Spears isn’t the only cameo queen in Hollywood.  According to sources, when Nicole filmed her bit part on “Chuck” last week, she was a huge hit.  And there’s even talk of her returning for another episode.

An insider revealed, “It was fantastic. She was friendly. Everybody loved her. She has a great fight scene.” Richie plays a high school nemesis of Yvonne Strahovski’s character Sarah.

They’ve been busily promoting their hit reality show in Monte Carlo, Monaco over the past few days, but that doesn’t mean that Kim Kardashian and sister Kourtney have gone without a little vacation-like relaxation.

Prior to their appearance at last night’s Golden Nymph Awards, the “Keeping Up with the Kardashian’s” co-star siblings were spotted having fun in the sun aboard a yacht - with Kim popping a bottle of champagne for her big sis.

The reality star sweethearts also made time for a dip in the pool at the Hotel Hermitage - showing off their fine forms as Kim wore a sexy fire engine red two-piece bikini while Kourtney chose a white two-piece swimsuit.

According to Kim’s personal blog, the day wasn’t all about waterside relaxation, as the pair also had brunch with Extra correspondent Terry Seymour, eating and filming at Cafe de Paris.
