Still Going Strong!

November 19th, 2008 by Evil Beet


Her best frenemy may have just dumped his brother, but all seems well in the world of Nicole and Joel. They looked very much the couple as they headed out to lunch on Wednesday.

Every time I see these two standing right next to each other, I’m just like, “Wow, he must be so short in real life.” I mean, I’ve never seen Joel in person, but I’ve seen Nicole, and she’s, like, 5-foot-nothing. I mean, tiny. And Benji — whose shoes have more lift than Nicole’s here — is really not that much taller than her. Not that there’s anything wrong with that — you just picture these rocker dudes to be so big, when he’s really probably a lot shorter than I am.

    He looks about 5′6, which is my height. Yeah, we could kick his ass, Beet.

  2. Jane says:

    He’s 5′7.

  3. hil says:

    she barely even has her shoes on…

  4. nuckie says:

    he is looking shockingly hot in this pic to me.

  5. j says:

    be honest have you seen one picture of nicole richie ever, where she doesn’t look like you at the most bored moment in your life?

  6. Down Unda says:

    She looks like she’s in shock or a trance or something and he’s guiding her to safety.

    BTW, on an unrelated note, what is it with the people and “Does Anyone Watch Jon & Kate Plus Eight?” I’ve never watch the show (they don’t have it here) nor do I think I’d want to. However, those people comment on Beet’s old post so fanatically and religiously and seem to be really emotionally invested in the show… like Jonestown or something. Sheesh. (Glad they are giving Beet traffic! :-) )

  7. Shezzy says:

    He’s 5′9″, according to imdb. How can he still look like a midget?

  8. maria says:

    The much hotter of the Madden brothers.

  9. Natasha says:

    IMDB doesn’t always give correct information about the actors and actresses.

  10. Dmarie says:

    ergh, short people are so annoying.

  11. Chick says:

    Oh…he is definitely NOT 5′9!!

    I met him about a year and a half ago…right before he and Nicole announced they were having a baby (but the rumors were flying).

    I am only 5′5…with heels a little bit taller. I was the same height as Joel and taller than Benji…so weird! All I could talk about was how short they were…Nicole must be TINY! I bet it was weird seeing Paris so tall with Benji who is so short…

    But the guys were so cool and down to earth. Really nice dudes.

  12. spob says:

    no way is he 5′9 - he is as much 5′9 as tom cruis is

  13. A says:

    well hes practically hunched over in this pic… it doesnt look like it at first, but if u imagine him standing up properly straight, he’d clearly be a couple of inches taller. i think nicole’s shortness is rubbing off on him…

  14. ThatLisa says:

    uhm dude, when a guy says he is 5′9″, he is soooo like 5′6.” Maybe like 5′7″… with shoes on

    it’s like chicks and their weight. almost EVERYONE LIES

  15. Holly says:

    looks like he is holding her together

  16. Rosemary says:

    yeah he may be short, but he is also squatting to reach nicole in this picture too!

  17. Rosemary says:

    not squatting, but hunching over i mean

  18. Rosemary says:

    he’s got at least 3 or 4 inches on her

  19. Rosemary says:

    oh and IMDB lies lies lies, about chicks weight, and everything. I bet it says paris has blue eyes! I think paris looks best with brown eyes. I think she would look at least twice as good with brown eyes. Am i the only one who feels she is much hotter with brown eyes?

  20. Rosemary says:

    Nothing more attractive than contrasts like brown eyes blondes…..brunettes with light skin…..etc

  21. Rosemary says:

    ok i’ll shut up now, sorry for all the posts, please forgive me!

  22. Leigh says:

    He’s started looking really hot again.
    :D

  23. Pris says:

    Just get married already. Screw Paris!!!! She is a bad influence to everyone on this entire planet, they should not be in the same sentence with her in it.

    Nicole has grown up so much, take it and run with it. Paris tried to be just like Nicole and failed miserably.
