Nicole Richie was involved in a car accident today and it actually wasn't her fault, if you can believe it.

We know. She's a married woman now, a mother, and her wild days are behind her. Today she was rear-ended by a photographer who was driving without a license.

The photograher was arrested at the scene and Richie complained of pain, but didn't call an ambulence. Hopefully she's doing all right tonight!

But is she also a hit-and-runner?

That's what the police were trying to determine when they arrived at the country singer and actress' home on Thursday evening.

Apparently, after spending the day on a golf course with her not-so-undercover lover, Eddie Cibrian, Rimes rear-ended another car, causing minor damage. What wasn't clear is whether she talked to the other driver or just drove off.

Morgan Freeman, 72, broke his shoulder and arm when he flipped his car in Mississippi on Sunday night.

The actor and his female passenger, Demaris Meyer (not his wife, not his assistant…what was she doing in his car we wonder), had to be cut from the wreckage using the Jaws of Life and airlifted to the Regional Medical Center in Memphis, Tennessee, after Morgan lost control of the vehicle on Highway 32, near his home in Charleston.

Despite the broken bones, Freeman is expected to make a “good” recovery.

In mountain-out-of-a-molehill news, Britney Spears was in a minor fender bender on Saturday evening. She rear ended another car at LA’s 101-405 freeway interchange while going about 20 mph. According to People:

F. Gary Gray's latest effort, Law Abiding Citizen, starring Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler, is a knockout! Exhilirating, wry and breathcatchingly paced, it's a stellar accomplishment for everyone involved. Hell yeah you should see it!

Scott Hicks, the director of Shine, and Clive Owen teamed up for this gloriously beautiful if underwhelming project. It's not that it's bad, it's just not that memorable and with such supreme talent attached, I was hoping for and expecting a lot more.

Oh, Diablo Cody, why'd you have to do it? I love you so long...and then you made this. Megan Fox does what she always does, she looks hot. At least there's that. Sophmoric, unfunny and obsessively idiosyncratic, it's a painful movie going experience.

Chocolate and peanut butter. Spaghetti and meatballs. Bobcat Goldthwait and profanity. Two great tastes that taste great together. Gone is the Bobcat of the Police Academy movies and in his stead is a fantastic writer-director who's able to orchestrate the most brilliantly, hilarious vulgarity imaginable. World's Greatest Dad is a fantastic dark comedy (very dark) that features Robin Williams' best performance since Good Will Hunting. See it!
