Nicole Richie horrified by dad’s dancing

Nicole Richie can't bear to watch her father dancing.

The TV star has a close bond with her dad, superstar singer Lionel Richie. Although she is a huge fan of his songs – she is not so impressed when he struts his stuff on stage.

"I can't really watch my dad dance. It's just very uncomfortable for me. I'm just not really feeling it," Nicole told ET. "So, I was more into the ballads 'cause watching my dad dance - I just get so embarrassed."

Nicole recently had the opportunity to join Lionel on stage for a special concert.

Lionel was pleased he had the chance to duet with his daughter and hopes his children were impressed by his performance.

"I'm very happy that [my children] got a chance to see this because this was dad showing off," he said. "I think that meant more to me as a father than anything else."

The concert was held at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas and is being broadcast in the US on Friday.

ACM Presents: Lionel Richie and Friends – In Concert, sees the star perform duets from his album Tuskegee as well as some of his greatest hits.
