Nicole Richie Writes a Book

I'm not exactly an expert on all the signs of the apocalypse - that hairball I found in the shower this morning may or may not have been one, but then again it kept telling me to murder my parents so maybe it was - but anyway, Nicole Richie writing a book has to be one of them. In The Truth About Diamonds, Richie tells the story of Chloe Parker, the princess daughter of rock royalty and member of the Hollywood elite. Here's a sample:

It started innocently enough, or as innocent as you can get on the dance floor of one of the hottest clubs in L.A. The nightclubs of L.A. are like soap operas, except they're not Days of Our Lives; they're more like Passions — crazy stuff happens, and no one bats a fake eyelash. There's always some bizarre drama that plays out every night, and everyone in the cast — I mean, everyone — is great looking, stoned, and/or drunk. It's like a traveling freak show that stars the youngest and hottest in Hollywood. It's about fun, and sex, and pseudo-danger."

Ok, I just read that for like the fourth time, and I think my brain is bleeding. It's not often you see words like 'pseudo-danger' in a book. Is that like Nicole being 'pseudo-literate' or Hilary Swank being a 'pseudo-man'? I don't know. And I don't care. I'm never getting those five minutes of my life back.
