NEON THURSDAY

Lionel Richie went from being the guy with the power ballads and on-your-feet showmanship to being Nicole Richie’s dad.

But his latest album, “Coming Home,” debuted at No. 6 on Billboard’s album chart last fall. Instead of ignoring the obvious, the singer recruited Nicole for the video of “I Call It Love.”

The “Dancing on the Ceiling” man takes over the Colosseum at Caesars Palace for shows at 8 p.m. today and Friday. Tickets are $75-$175; call 731-7110.
