A little known fact is that Nicole Richie was in a rap group called Caution when she was a mere eight-years-old. Two of her friends formed the group and asked her to audition over the phone.

In a fail of epic proportions, Nicole busted out with her three line rap, thus showing the world why she got famous for being a reality star, along with being Lionel’s daughter.

I’m sure it was as cute as a button when she was eight, so don’t get me wrong. I’m only ragging on her 28-year-old self and that nerdy version of the rap.

It’s cute, though, and at least she’s brave enough to go on national television to do a corny rap. Props on that, Nicole. You’re still 100 percent better than Paris will ever aspire to be.
