Love Quote by Nicole Richie

"I absolutely love Oscar. So classic. So timeless"

About this Quote

Nicole Richie’s “I absolutely love Oscar. So classic. So timeless” is celebrity language doing what it does best: turning a specific cultural object into a portable vibe. The name “Oscar” (shorthand for the Academy Awards and, by extension, Hollywood’s official taste machine) is treated less like an institution and more like a brand you can wear. The clipped sentences are the tell. “So classic. So timeless” isn’t an argument; it’s an aesthetic stamp, the kind you’d put on a handbag or a red-carpet silhouette. In three beats, she signals allegiance to tradition without having to defend any of the tradition’s choices.

The intent is social positioning. Richie, whose fame grew out of early-2000s reality TV and tabloid visibility, is fluent in the old celebrity economy and the newer one built on attitude and image. Praising “Oscar” offers a neat bridge: she can participate in the prestige conversation while keeping her voice breezy, not reverent. That casualness is strategic. It lets her borrow cultural capital from the Oscars without sounding like she’s begging for it.

The subtext is that Hollywood still needs its rituals, even as everyone knows the rituals are imperfect, political, and sometimes out of step. Calling them “timeless” is a gentle act of nostalgia, a refusal to interrogate, and a reminder that the awards’ real power isn’t just who wins but the fantasy of permanence they sell: that this industry, and the people in it, can be made to feel canonical.
