has slammed reports she's checked herself into an eating disorder
rehabilitation clinic, insisting she is "happy and healthy."
The skinny star has posted a comment on her MySpace page denying the rumors,
which surfaced earlier this week.
Richie fumes, "Contrary to CNN's false accusations, I did not check myself
into an eating disorder rehab. I do not have an eating disorder. Whoever has
started this rumor is evil and mean but it's not true.
"I am happy and healthy and living my life."
Her publicist Nicole Perna added, "Nicole has decided to undergo diagnostic
treatment to determine why she's not been putting on weight. This is not
treatment for an eating disorder."
Filming on the fifth season of Richie's reality TV show The Simple Life has
been postponed while she undergoes the treatment.
