Lionel Richie isn't the only one crying about Nicole Richie's ghostly like stick figure.

The musician says his daughter Nicole's weight is making him miserable. He admits he constantly worries about his super-skinny daughter and wishes he could help her to be happy.

He told The Knowledge magazine, "She is going to be OK, she is going to be OK. She recently broke up with her fiance and she is a worrier like her father. It worries me that she worries. You're only as happy as your saddest child. I look at the adult she has become and I just want to scoop her up."

Lionel, who missed fifteen consecutive Christmases at the height of his career, reveals Nicole had an unusual childhood and was surrounded by famous neighbors.

He explained, "We would be driving along and I would say to Nicole, 'That's Uncle Prince and that's Uncle Michael (Jackson) and there's godfather Quincy Jones.'"
