has spoken out about his goddaughter and blamed recent events on the pressure of her fame.

“You get caught up in the peer pressure and the hoopla – it’s a media frenzy. It’s insane. Success doesn’t help,” Jones, 73, told PEOPLE Thursday at a benefit performance of the Debbie Allen Dance Academy’s new musical, The Bayou Legend, in Los Angeles. “Processing success is a major, major, major process.”

Success? Nicole Richie? Success is winning a Pulitzer or discovering a cure for cancer. Success is not co-starring in The Simple Life and losing enough weight to classify you as legally dead. Oh success! I’m a retarded waif famous for being useless. All I do is shop and do drugs, but that’s ok because I still earn more than teachers and firemen. Tee hee.
