Nicole Richie and Joel Madden’s daughter Harlow is “ready for her close-up,” announces Star, which claims the five-year-old “wants to follow in her parents’ footsteps and become a star.”
Um… she’s five. She doesn’t even know what that means.
Anyway, the mag notes that the little girl is “just like her charismatic mother,” quoting a so-called “friend” as saying, “When Nicole was a kid, she was always performing. Harlow is a mini version of her mom.”
Star goes on to allege that Richie is “open to the idea of Harlow being a child star,” but Madden is “more protective.”
The purported “pal” offers, “Nicole grew up with Hollywood royalty, so she is talking to friends about getting Harlow modeling gigs,” adding, “But Joel has his concerns.”
Gossip Cop also has concerns… about this story.
No one who is actually friends with a celebrity uses the term “Hollywood royalty” — only tabloids do that.
So, we checked in with a source close to Richie, who tells us the mag’s report is “completely false.”
