New dad Joel Madden has given us another update on his infant daughter, Harlow.
The Good Charlotte rocker just posted the following on his official blog:
"Harlow.
January 23, 2008 at 3:14 pm
She’s already growing to fast! So I am at home writing this blog before i head to the DCMA store, and then the DEAD EXEC studio to work. I swear it’s so hard to leave during the day, but always so rewarding to come home to the little family. I’ve always been a guy who loves to love.Probably one of the things that define me outside of my work is LOVE. I had no idea what love even was until Harlow came along.
Me and her mother feel like the luckiest two people alive right now. This time in our life has been amazing. We both look at our little girl every single moment everyday and know there is nothing we wouldn’t do to protect her and her perfect little innocence. It seems like you turn on the tv, or get online and its all bad news.
We dont want her to know any of that yet. I actually never want her to know any of the pain and suffering we see out in the world everyday, or how harsh people can be as a result of it. Having this baby has really made me realize we all start out that way, then somewhere along the way something happens and people go one way or the other. But all started out sweet and innocent just like my little daughter. The world could really make you bitter if you let it, but thats where music, and art come in to save the day.
You’ve got to surround yourself with the things you love. The whole point to DCMA and this site is a bunch of us friends doing what we love, surrounding ourselves with positivity. I want my kid to grow up around that.
My heart goes out to Heath ledger’s family. Too young. too soon. too loved to be gone. It almost seems pointless to say this with the state of the media today, but i hope people will respect what his child and her mother are going thru right now and give them space. May God be with them.
So this one was especially long today on the writing side, i apologize it all just got me thinking."

Amazing
jj

Notice how he said everything is great "right now." I am sure they will not last…
first?
"me and her mother"? that makes it sound like they're not even together
Nicole sure got herself a catch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
first!!!
what a gorgeous couple, I'm sure their daughter is going to be as pretty as her mother.
i want pictures of harlow!!!!!!
Nicole I love you, you are the most down to earth person I have ever seen. Not to mention, you are freaking gorgeous. Love you!
I'm so glad to see them together, he dumped Hillary's flat ass and got him self a real hottie. I love them.
top 20?
their kid is gonna be a tattod, anorexic, drug addict…just like the two of them
what he said about heath and love was nice
I hope these two last long, because the are the 1st most hottest couple , 2nd hottest couple is Brangelina
R.I.P. Heath
they'll be divorced hollyweird style in two years.
he's a decent and thoughtful person.
Re: julia – so sad
how many times does he wanna plug the whole DCMA thing
1st: He sound like he is a great man to have!
2nd: He sound like he is typing from his heart
3rd: I think that it is sad that the world wants to see pain, and bullsh*t all of the time!
4th: I hope that they stick it out, because I love the both of them together!
well said
!!!
this guy is barely literate. He can hardly string a sentence together.
His grammar and spelling are similar to that of a FIRST GRADER.
stupid celebrities.
Oh their such a cute couple. I think being with him has done good for Nicole. I hope they stay together.
That's cute and heartfelt…
Did YOU read that perez??
whatever… that kid'll b in rehab before she's a teenager
how sweet.
i'm glad they're so happy.
and i agree with what he said about heath.
i just lost my father a year ago and i'm 16 and it's still extremely difficult even at my age.
i hope the media will realize that this is not just another breaking news story. this is a human being who his life. and a family who lost someone they held dear.
Easily one of the least attractive Hollywood couples.
Re: genius – Try starting your sentence with a capital letter and then you may be qualified in being critical in his use of the English language.
wow. that was really so positive and genuinely nice to read. good going. i have new respect for the guy.
i really like them…..so cute
I never thought I'd say this, but Nicole sure is pretty in that picture. Maybe she should always be preggers. I hope they stay together, children deserve a happy whole family.
He really seems like a good guy. I was surprised that he mentioned Heath Ledger.
He wants to keep his baby away from all that stuff yet he and his babys mama have already made a deal to whore out her first pics to people magazine.
very well said! i enjoyed reading his post.
may he and his new family be very happy together.
>>We dont want her to know any of that yet. I actually never want her to know any of the pain and suffering we see out in the world everyday, or how harsh people can be as a result of it.
The want to protect this child from all the bad stuff on t.v.? I still remember Nicole on the simple life pouring chlorine on a pool table and having a guy kiss her ass not to mention her drug addiction and eating disorder. I think in that case he should keep the child away from Nicole. She contributed to some of the crazy negative stuff others saw on t.v.
what the fuck," me and her mother", and "i had no idea what love even was until Harlow came along" umm arent they together? sounds like thery really arent in love, and or noe even together, just there for the sake of the baby.
LOL AT PPL MAKING FUN OF HIS GRAMMAR ————
UM, HELLO!!!!!! HE IS A ROCK STAR! NOT A ENGLISH TEACHER
twas a nice blog
The comments about this bulimic serial DUI offender and her tattoed half-literate flavor of the week are hilarious. "Oh, they're such a cute couple," "What a catch he is," "You can tell he's a caring guy," LMAO, as if any of you actually know what they're really like. I do feel sorry for their kid, who will be gracing these pages with her own antics in fifteen years or so. That would be funny if it weren't so tragic. She doesn't stand a chance with these two for parents. The world would be better off if all these celebrities went the way of Heath Ledger. At least he had the decency not to take anybody with him, unlike this reeling drunk, who put fellow drivers at risk every time she got behind the wheel.
spoken like a new father,and i don't mean that in a good way,does he really think
his baby girl is gonna be as sweet and innocent when she's in her twenties,that's life you deal with heartache and disappointment and other things and it wasn't too long ago that Nicole was on heroin herself and flashing her tits at fashion shows,gimme a break!,and when is he gonna post some god damn pictures of the baby!
I still don't think all this soppy talk will keep this couple together for the rest of Harlow's life. Do they have any idea that Harlow is actually a place in Essex, UK, that's a real shit hole…?!
LOL.
" me and her mother.."
gawd that sounds like such a happy family. NOT
just say Nicole & I you freak.. geesh.. bet she just got pregnant by accident cause uhmm.. who needs condoms right.. sicko
this so isnt gonna last..and the poor baby will have to suffer for it
It would be in Joel's best interest to run a quick SPELLING/GRAMMAR check prior to his next entry.
he sounds like a really nice guy
Joel needs to taking writing 101 course. Me and her mom then switches entirely different thoughts..
Also, doesnt he love Nicole? Says the baby taught him what love is lol…
HAHA all you stupid asses who think they are first.. who really fucking cares?
ne who
Joel Madden is THA SHIT
Re: annie –
WOW i'm sure he cares is he uses the correct grammar considering he is a huge artist and sold thousands of records! JUST because it wasn't planned doesn't mean shit. He is a great father and loves his child dearly.. Even if him and Nicole don't last it doesn't mean the child will suffer you stupid bitch…..
His spelling and grammar suck. He's obviously neither intelligent nor well educated.
Dear #61,
Totally agree. People who can't spell or use proper grammar shouldn't be allowed to raise children. It's easy to fix, and it's the same kind of carelessness that allows kids to fall into fires, down stairs, off cliffs…
The Axe.
I just am glad they are happy. Too much horrible shit in this world today. To much bad shit in this world of mine. WE ALL deserve something better.
they got it, in the form of new life. Congrats mother fuckers, lets live!
Re: realist – hahahahahahahahahahahahaha!! rock on!!! too funny!!
Hope the kid looks like him and not HER..(shiver!!) She's so homely with those bette davis eyes!! I just threw up in my mouth alittle looking at her picture!
That picture of them cracks me up! Look at his hand rubbin her bump..like he's saying.."Oh YEAH!! I tapped that!!!!….ewwwwwwww, dude..dont brag on THAT!
Re: Ivy – hahahahahahaha!!
Re: The Axe. –
That is probably one of the most ridiculous things i've heard someone say on here.
Such a hypocrite…she doesnt want her own kid to see anything bad????…Meanwhile she made the news alot being a pot head driving drunk and did all kinda stupid immature stuff on the simple life! Now she thinks anyone who does goofy shit is a bad person right? get over yourself!
did he have a DNA test??She mighta been HIGH and forgot who she banged! ..you might find yourself on Maury someday & I,ll laugh!
totally agree with what he's saying, at some point or other we all lose that innocence we were once born with.
and i respect him for wanting to keep Harlow in the dark about all the bad things that go on in the world, but one day she's gonna have to find out what the world is really like, a place full of assholes !
awesome blog from joel….wishing them much love and happiness!
Very Sweet, but a little weird saying he never knew Love before the Harlow. So he doesn't Love Nicole.. or didn't before the baby was born?
"I had no idea what love even was until Harlow came along."
…What about Nicole?
Omg hes so sweet, i love them!!!!!
i never read the celeb blogs
but now it seems hes the only good celeb blog i'll ever read
Re: realist – for one she wasnt drunk, she was under the influence of drugs. she has apologized for it and has served her time and done her debt to society. you ppl are all horrible
Who gives a crap about his ungrammatical, self-important, belly button-gazing musings? He's a moron, and his daughter's IQ, as a blend of her two parents, probably registers in the low double digits. What a bunch of self-important garbage. Of course, this loser had to interject himself into the Heath Ledger tragedy. Pathetic and star-fucking and insecure. Go back to spinning your pathetic records — there's a real contribution to society!
Congratulations Joel and Nicole!! we are already so excited to meet your beautiful baby girl
Re: jimmi – so when did you ever hear either one of them say being silly or goofy makes somebody a bad person?
That is so beautiful. It's nice to know - he sounds like me .
god, what a fucking dumb shit! Now he's a poet and Nicole is mother theresa.
He sounds like a man who is obviously transformed by the love of his new daughter. I am not particularly a fan of Nicole Ritchie but this little girl may have been the best thing to ever happen to them. Having a child gives you a new perspective on the world. Congrats guys.
Wow if Perez, and people like him, can only have a baby and become a better person like the rest of us grateful parents!
TO EVERYONE CHATTING SHIT ABOUT JOEL'S WRITING SKILLS;
shut the fuck up !
you sound like a bunch of wankers.
’cause he doesn't write formal his child is going to fall down a flight of stairs or burn in a fire?
what the fuck is wrong with you people?
and people complaining about his writing skills aren't even writing in the correct use of grammar anyway.
and also, people who are saying about him not knowing what love was until Harlow came along, I'd be kind of worried if he loved his daughter in the same way he loves the mother of his child, fucking sick bastards !
so why don't you all go and look down the barrel of a gun and contemplate pulling the trigger !
Reminds me of the song "No Lies, Just Love":
"I wrote this for a baby who has yet to be born
My brother's first child
I hope that womb's not too warm
'Cause it's cold out here
And it'll be quite a shock
To breathe this air
To discover loss
And so I'd like to make some changes
Before you arrive
So when your new eyes meet mine
They won't see no lies
Just love,
Just love."
Gorgeous song by Bright Eyes conveying that feeling, (I think)
I think this is very sweet and so very true… He is a man, and men typically have a difficult time expressing feelings so give him a break! I am very happy for them, and it seems as if they are on the right track in life. I think they are truly in love, and a very darling couple.
Re: ? – didnt ya read his blog right?? Nicole is/was a total screwball…he doesnt want the kid exposed to stuff like that..he better get sole custody then and get her a new mama quick!!!
He dresses like a rabbi!
HE'S HOT!!!!!!
I hear the baby already weighs more than Nicole. Too bad the baby is a crack baby!!!! Nicole and Joel are totally unfit parents by my standards. Look what Britney did to her boys - Nicole has not proven that she is any different. What does she do for money anyway?
It is nice to see that someone has class out in Hollywood. Nicole is a lucky girl.
I don't get why some of you are being so mean to him… his grammar, them not lasting, his daughter going down the wrong road, etc… grow up. dont know why you have to be such assholes and try to ruin people's happiness.
Harlow's gotta be one of the worst name I could think of for a kid…it's entirely too close to harlot.
Poor poor baby. Too bad your parents didn't think how screwed up they've already made you.
See, that's nicely said. He didn't have to go ON and ON about Heath Ledger like Travolta. That's sweet, I think parenthood has really changed them for the better.
that baby will not be innocent with a whore/addict like her mother and a whack job like the father. soorrrrrrrrrrrry, not gonna happen. she'll be pregnant and on drugs by age 11
you guys really need to stop hating, the simplae matter of the fact is people change and especially in parenthood it almost always for the better, ALMOST ALWAYS…….
okay so nicole was a drug addict your depicted herself as an ignorant slut but she's changed and as her man says for the better…. ya'll sit here and judge her past and yet how many stars do you love that are serious, serious drug addicts and not just stars, but maybe some one you know, i know a girl whose done coke w/ bif naked, i know another whose done a lot of coke but they've changed their lives around at least from what i saw….so stop hating on her so much and appreciate the fact that she didn't sell her baby pictures as soon as kid popped out or she's not pimping her babies out a la suri cruise and that she's not going haywire at every damn starsbuck and gas station in hollywood while her kids' teeth are rotting with all the cheetos she feeds them……
so cut them both some slack and joel n nic don't let us who have no problem with you down…. stay far away from "you know who, her 9th step grandfather just dissed her hard… lmao…"
CANADIANS FUCKIN' ROCK!!!!!!!!
You don't have any clue what love is until you have a child. Romantic love is wonderful. Parental love is visceral and from the gut in a way no other love is like. Sounds pretty normal to me. It does not matter what Nicole's past is, as long as she works it out from here on in.
HARLOW SOUNDS LIKE HARLOT!!!
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HARLOW SOUNDS LIKE HARLOT!!!
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
