Nicole Richie celebrated her milestone birthday particularly hot.
For her big day, the actress got a new haircut - albeit unintentionally, as can be seen in a short video of the celebration on her Instagram account.
The clip shows the actress happily blowing out the candles on her cake decorated with cream and a picture of a child.
While Richie leans forward, her hair catches fire and a flame goes up next to her face.
The guests next to her try directly to extinguish the burning of the curls, at this point the video ends.
Just got away
The incident seems to have turned out lightly.
Nicole Richie wrote on the Instagram post: "Well, so far 40 is hot".
Except for her curls, nothing was harmed - and Richie landed a small Instagram hit with her humorous reactions.
Her video not only had just under three million views on Thursday afternoon, but was also commented on by famous colleagues and friends.
Singer Kelly Rowland writes: "My heart just stopped !!!!".
On the other hand, musician and husband Joel Madden and his brother Benji Madden reacted with humor to the situation: “Congratulations, sister, I love you and I am always grateful for you.
Stay hot, ”writes her brother-in-law Benji Madden.
Husband Joel Madden comments briefly and painlessly: "This is hot".
