Nicole Richie and Joel Madden sell wedding pics for $100K

Nicole Richie and her fiance Joel Madden have sold the rights to their wedding pictures for at least $100,000.

According to New York Post gossip column Page Six, the couple — who will reportedly marry this weekend — were as late as yesterday “playing the weekly magazines against each other to drive up the price”.

Richie — who plans to donate the money to charity — had agreed to an OK! bid earlier in the week to make her a “cover chip” — a less important story referenced with a small photo on the front page — but then went to People to negotiate a full cover.

“Things got complicated because both Kim Kardashian and Christina Aguilera said they couldn’t attend the wedding because of other commitments,” a source said.
