The National Enquirer is reporting that Nicole Richie and MTV reality star Tila Tequila got in quite the tiff at a post-Oscar party when Tila tried to make a pass at Nicole’s boyfriend Joel Madden.
“As soon as Tila saw Joel, she ran up to him and started acting super flirty – grabbing and hugging him,” an eyewitness told the magazine.
At first, Nicole shrugged it off, but apparently Tila wouldn’t let it drop and Joel was enjoying the attention. Once Nicole realized Tila wasn’t going away, she took matters into her own hands.
“Nicole had her back turned, but when she realized that Tila was all over him, she ran up and yelled, ‘Joel… JOEL!!’” the eyewitness explained. “When he didn’t respond right away, Nicole pulled Joel away to their table.”
Apparently, the run-in doesn’t event end there. Tila approached Joel again and Nicole just lost it.
“That was the last straw for Nicole,” the source claims. “She got right in Tila’s face and screamed ‘Back off and get out of here!’”
I find the National Enquirer pretty hard to believe. Nicole and Joel are celebrating their second pregnancy and Tila Tequila is hardly someone you need to worry about.
But I can see there is a possibility something happened and it was blown completely out of proportion for the tabloid. Maybe Tila was acting flirty. Maybe Nicole did ask her to back off. Regardless, te tabloids aren’t exactly the place to go for reliable information.

tila benji and joel are friends. she’s at the dcma store quiet a bit and she even dated benji for awhile. so I think this was blown way out of proportion.
yeah, tabloid, but it’s foreseeable that nicole would be feeling even more insecure these days. with another baby on the way it’s going to continue to get harder for her to think of trying to a have a career of any substance. meanwhile, joel is out and away playing quite a bit without nicole.
Tila is a great BITCH!!!! ho my good!! Joel and Benji are better than her!! She’s so stupid Nicole is nicer and more pretty than…
