Well, for their slimming effect, of course. High heels make you look so sleek and lean ... right? After the jump look at the shoes, then stand back for the finished effect ... you tell us what you think.

Putting a pregnant woman in heels to minimize her swollen appearance is like locking the barn door after you've let the wolf in. What's done is done; just live with it. Nicole still seems to be struggling with self-image issues, as the mope on her face surely attests. Uh, gee, if you didn't want to get your picture taken, why not go to a place where the paparazzi won't follow?

Check out the height on Nicole's shoes, though.

We snapped this exclusive shot of Joel and Nicole enjoying a little crudite in the kitchen of a popular restaurant recently. Eager for a quiet moment to share their lust for beta carotene, the couple threw caution to the wind and tag teamed that carrot 'til it begged for surcease. That's still nothing compared to what they did to an ear of corn last week.
