Nikki Sixx has the easiest job in Hollywood: be a better mate to Denise Richards than Charlie Sheen was during his marriage to this Z-list actress.
The Motley Crue bassist has been neighbors with Richards for years, Us Weekly reports, with the relationship recently taking a turn to the romantic.
“They have a lot in common and are taking things slowly,” a source tells the magazine, adding that the pair was spotted at Marmalade Cafe in Calabasas on Sunday morning.

Sixx is a former heroin addict who has been married to two Playboy models and dated Kat Von D for almost two years.
