Nicole Richie knows how rumors get started, so she's nipping in the bud any chance of wicked whispers about her boyfriend Joel Madden being on the outs. Wednesday night, Madden went to celebrate the first anniversary of the Village Pourhouse on Third Avenue, and all was well until a party promoter wanted to take a picture of him with a cute young woman. According the the NY Post, "He said he couldn't, as Nicole gave him strict orders not to take pictures with other celebrities or girls for rumor purposes."
