For Nicole Richie and Joel Madden, the wedding bells can wait – at least for a little while.

“We don’t have any plans for that right now,” Madden told PEOPLE on Wednesday. “We’re just happy, and we’re being a family, and that’s where we’re at right now. But marriage means something different to everyone.”

As a celebrity DJ at the Oakley/Suzuki Celebrity Ride Day event in Perris, Calif., Madden took turns spinning records, and quelling notions of a summer rush to the altar.

“Right now we’re really happy,” the Good Charlotte frontman says, “and we’re concentrating on our family, and that’s what is making us happy right now. We’re moving at our own pace.”

The new father has his mind now on raising little daughter Harlow. “It’s crazy,” he says. “Every day she does something new. When she reaches for me, it’s awesome! Just watching her grow, it melts me!”

Former Simple Life star Nicole Richie, 26, will expand her presence on the small screen this fall, when she appears in an episode of the NBC comedy Chuck, the network announced exclusively to PEOPLE. And Richie will be playing a role all too familiar in Young Hollywood: the Mean Girl.

According to NBC, Richie will play a “snarky and spiteful girl who tortured” actress Yvonne Strahovski’s character in high school. In the episode, airing sometime this fall, Strahovski’s character, Special Agent Sarah Walker, “must face her fears when she is forced to attend her 10-year high school reunion,” for a mission with costar Zachary Levi (Chuck) as her date.

Chuck’s executive producer Josh Schwartz says, “Nicole auditioned for the part and was very funny. This role is a great opportunity for her to show off her comedic skills and be diabolically evil and kick some butt. It’s going to be really fun.”

Rich, semi-famous people like Mary-Kate Olsen, Nicole Richie and Joel Madden have a lot of time on their hands. When they’re not laughing at the homeless, they’re throwing whacked out parties like this. These parties usually have themes that are a throwback to a phase they grew out of from their childhood. For example, gangster rap/the urban lifestyle, flannel and minorities. Here is one of those parties. The theme was flannel, but the outcome was all retardation.

Joel Madden got his fans excited when he blogged Saturday: “WE DID IT!! NICOLE AND I FINALLY GOT MARRIED!! Click here for pictures!!”

Too bad he was just joking — and calling out Star magazine for falsely reporting he was planning a $2 million wedding to the mother of his five-month-old daughter, Harlow.

“HAHA. JUST KIDDING,” Madden, 30, blogged. “So I feel really stupid even posting this, but I’ve been getting calls and texts from my family all week asking me why they weren’t invited to my wedding.”

“I guess the only answer I could give them was that I didn’t know we were having one!” he added. “So I just found that Star magazine wrote some story about a 2 MILLION dollar wedding we are supposed to be having, and that’s where it came from.

“Sooooo if you were pi–ed at me for not inviting you or even telling you, don’t blame me, there’s nothing to worry about,” Madden wrote. “It’s just Star magazine. How long do you think it will be before they write we called it off, or we broke up? I give them a week or two…….”

Madden also posted pictures of two gorillas posing together in a tux and wedding dress, asking his fans to, “Check out my blog for a picture of me and my beautiful bride. All I can say is I am so very happy…….”

Nicole Richie wants a new reality show according to Entertainment Weekly.

Richie has reportedly been pitching a program that would see the new mom traveling the country searching for the next Nicole Richie, according to EW’s Hollywood Insider blog.

If the project gets the green light, seven girls would be picked for [and later tested on] their propensity to achieve mega-fame.

The reward of winning the show? Another reality show centered around the winner.

EW reports three cable networks have expressed an interest in the potential program.

As previously reported Richie’s former “Simple Life” co-star, Paris Hilton, already has her own new reality show in the works. Hilton is currently testing out contestants to become her new best friend.

Paris is now dating Benji Madden of the band Good Charlotte, and Nicole recently had her first child with Joel Madden, Benji’s twin brother, also in the band.
