It looks like rapper Iggy Azalea has some competition.
Fashion designer, actress, noted author, reality TV star and socialite Nicole Richie can add one more feather to her cap. The 33-year-old mother of 2 is a rapper who goes by the nom de guerre Nikki Fre$h. Why not? Her biological dad (Peter Michael Escovedo), is a well-known musician, and everyone knows who her adopted father, Lionel, is. She can’t sing, so she might as well rap.
From USA Today:
We all know Nicole Richie as a mom, fashion designer and reality star, but her latest gig?
A rapper who goes by Nikki Fre$h. With a dollar sign. Seriously.
Of course, it’s not a full-time thing – it was all part of the opening of VH1?s You Oughta Know Live in Concert special, which she hosted Thursday night in New York. Check out her sick MC skills as she rides in on a tricycle and raps about breakout artists such as Echosmith, Aloe Blacc, Vance Joy and American Authors performing on the show (she’s actually not half bad?):
