Two incidents equals a trend, and therefore we have a massive epidemic of "cupping" on our hands! A TV junkie reports:

Wasn't Nicole Richie sporting Gwyneth-esque cupping marks on her back last night on The Simple Life 2? At the time, I assumed they were crack-pipe burns or something along those lines. Perhaps I'm hallucinating (and I've already deleted it off the TiVo), so you may want to double-check on this.

[Ed. Note: Double-check? Are you trying to trick me into watching Simple Life? As fucking if.] [UPDATE: Ah ha! We think they were using makeup over Nicole's tattoos. Because, you know: middle America is TERRIFIED of tattoos, better not show them on that there TV show.]
