After reports came out claiming that she was back in rehab, Nicole Richie has moved swiftly to help clear the air. During an on-air discussion with Ryan Seacrest, Nicole talked about her upcoming DUI sentencing and what’s been keeping her busy the past few weeks.

To start off, Nicole admitted that she is indeed “nervous” about the possibility that she may follow friend and Simple Life co-star Paris Hilton to jail.

Nicole, daughter of musician Lionel Richie, is busy battling a DUI charge that she racked up that past February. Police say that she was under the influence of alcohol and an unspecified drug when they stopped her last year (Nicole reportedly admitted to taking Vicodins and smoking marijuana).

During her talk with Seacrest, Richie said that she understands she has to “take responsibility” and “deal with whatever consequences” come her way.

Moving away from the legal matters to rumors surrounding her medical well-being, Richie denied the

numerous reports claiming that she’d been in rehab recently.

She believes the rumor started considering she hadn’t been seen in a few weeks, but says she was touring with boyfriend Joel Madden of Good Charlotte.

Meanwhile, Paris has been keeping herself busy - trying to suppress the thoughts of her impending 23-day jail sentence. Spotted out in Hollywood, Paris carried a new script in her arms and treated herself to some ice cream at Cantaloop.

We’ll be certain to bring you the latest on Nicole and Paris’ legal matters. In the meantime, enjoy the pictures of Nicole getting a pedicure on Tuesday (May 29) and Paris in Hollywood on Wednesday (May 30).
