Female Celebrities - Nicole Richie is set to wed

From E News!

Paris Hilton isn't losing a reality TV costar, she's gaining new material.

Nicole Richie, Hilton's Simple Life cohort, has announced her engagement to boyfriend Adam Goldstein.

No wedding date has been set, Richie's publicist told E! on Tuesday. The marriage would be the first for both.

Richie, 23, is best known as the craftily edited version of herself on Fox's The Simple Life, the rich-fishes-out-of-water reality series now in its third season.

Goldstein is a thirtysomething deejay on the Los Angeles scene who mixes tunes under the name of DJ AM

Richie and Goldstein have been an item for a year. Last month he provided the music for the shoot of her upcoming Bongo Jeans TV commercial. Other recent credits include a New Year's Eve shindig with Wilmer Valderrama and the Black Eyed Peas in Miami, an inaugural bash in Washington, D.C., and a Simple Life wrap party.

Richie hails from the Hollywood home of pop star Lionel Richie; Goldstein hails from Philadelphia, where, according to his official Website, he learned to keep it real, word.

"Some brothas would run up to jack me, and I would bust a beat box for them," the DJ AM bio reads, "and next thing I knew, it was a freestyle session for an hour."

Prior to her Simple Life debut in December 2003, Richie was busted, not in a beat box way, for drug possession. She subsequently entered rehab, and earned kudos from her sentencing judge for her newfound sobriety.

The Simple Life: Interns, the latest example of Richie and Hilton's collaborative work, scored to its best-ever premiere numbers on Jan. 26.

After spending two seasons tormenting small towns, the duo have been dispatched in Interns to the corporate world. The Richie and Hilton effect on domestic productivity has yet to be determined.

Richie will try to add to her bottom line by launching a music career. A debut album is said to be in the works. It seems she has this in with a deejay...

I think this might actually work. I remember hearing her say that she had a thing for pale skinny men and he does fit the description.
