Nicole Richie wants the paparazzi off her back and off her bumper.

The ticked-off celeb obtained temporary restraining orders today against two shutterbugs she says caused her fender-bender earlier this month and have been following her for some time.

"She claims they harassed and stalked her and were involved in the car accident in the beginning of month," Los Angeles Superior Court spokeswoman Vania Stuelp told E! News Friday.

Eduardo Cerri Arrivabene and Ivon Emilio Melo Miguel are required to stay at least 100 yards away from Richie's children, staff, home and vehicles. A hearing on the matter is set for Nov. 16.

The Simple Life alumna suffered minor injuries in the Oct. 5 smashup. She was seen afterward tearfully talking to boyfriend Joel Madden, who was in the passenger seat.

Oh, those troublesome paparazzi! Then again, without them, we wouldn't have all of these...

People Magazine

Ah, baby magazine covers. They're that rare breath of cute air that we can look at in the supermarket line without feeling angry at Jon & Kate or sad about Lindsay Lohan's new haggard makeover or annoyed at the Jen Aniston lies.

Instead, we can just let the warm fuzzy feelings wash over us and be like, "Well, that's nice."

So thank you, Nicole Richie, for showing off your cuddly 6-week-old son Sparrow in this week's People. Inside the magazine there are even more adorable pictures of the new family of four that are worth checking out.

And as an added bonus, Nicole and her longtime partner, Joel Madden, even (kind of) explain what's up with the strange bird name...

Nicole Richie's lucky she didn't have any babies on board.

The celebutante is nursing what appear to be minor injuries after her car was dinged by a pursuing paparazzo in Beverly Hills

"She was rear-ended," BHPD Lt. Tony Lee tells E! News, adding that the accident occurred around 2 p.m. "There was a complaint of pain injury. She told officers at the scene that she’s going to seek her own medical treatment."

Richie, 27, who just gave birth last month, apparently left baby Sparrow and her big sis Harlow back at home base. She was traveling only with an unidentified adult passenger, says Lee.

No ambulances were called and the damage to the vehicles was described as minimal.

The shutterbug behind the bust-up was cited for being an unlicensed driver and his vehicle was impounded.

What a difference a week makes.

Just seven days after the arrival of her son, Sparrow James Midnight Madden, Nicole Richie was out and about L.A. 

It may take some time to get used to the name, but meanwhile she is looking absolutely amazing.

When Nicole Richie showed up at the DJ AM memorial last week, she looked almost ready to burst.

And she was. 

The 27-year-old Simple Lifer starlet and boyfriend Joel Madden welcomed son Sparrow James Midnight Madden in the wee hours this morning, Richie's publicist, Nicole Perna, confirms to E! News. The little bird tipped the scales at 7 pounds, 14 ounces.

Richie reportedly entered the hospital over the holiday weekend, and while her actual labor day came a little later, a note on her website says everyone is A-OK:

"Nicole, Joel, Harlow and Sparrow are all doing well. Thank you for all of your good wishes."

Richie and Madden—who have been dating since 2006 and planning their wedding since before the birth of daughter Harlow 19 months ago—announced the news of baby No. 2 back on Oscar Sunday.

The 30-year-old Good Charlotte frontman wrote on his blog, "What's better than winning an Oscar? I am so happy to tell everyone that Harlow is going to be a big sister! God has truly blessed my family!"

What happened in DJ AM's 12-step-themed public remembrance has aptly remained off-limits—with the single and rather touching exception of a memorial video of the late spinmeister compiled by friends.

The footage, which was played during the Thursday tribute, was released online yesterday and features the artist otherwise known as Adam Goldstein pretty much in his element.

AM is featured behind the turntables; with fans and friends, including girlfriend Haley Wood, former fiancée Nicole Richie, Travis Barker, Jay-Z, Will Smith, Kobe Bryant, Mark Ronson, Wilmer Valderrama and fellow scratchers Samantha Ronson and Steve Aoki; making a guest appearance on Entourage, celebrating with his sister, mother and other family members in photos that span his 36 years; showing off his prized 600-pair Nike collection; snuggling with his cat Mugsy; and finally, and most touchingly, walking arm-in-arm with his mother.

The footage ends with AM and his mom holding hands and strolling around his home, with the DJ imparting the following words of motherly wisdom:

"My mom always said you want to be happy in life, find something you love to do so much you'd do it for free, then find somebody to pay you for it."
