Hagsville is looking splendid, then, as is Jesssica. She and her Louis' are doing quite well, thank you. A good woman and a good bag only get better with age, my dear.

Looks like Jessica is back on the shelf.. She can sit there with her Louis Vuitton handbags as that all she was concerned about on her show with Nick back in the day.. Proactive will not be renewing the contract as she's just entered HAGSVILLE.. Population 1 - her!

Jessica Simpson is a wonderful girl. I wish only the best for her. Her sister is, BORING! And not pretty at all. She needs to lip sync more songs. Wonder what her hubby thinks of that?

cry me a river for jessica simpson. she got too big for her britches when she was little miss daisy duke - thought she was this HOT star & didn't need nick anymore...but she found out the hard way that she isn't so hot. she can't keep a man now because she can't keep her big mouth shut. i bet if she had it to do all over again, she'd NEVER leave nick....

Amen 3:30! Us weekly is full of half-truths, designed to sell magazines. I check it on-line periodically for a good laugh, but would never pay a penny to read the magazine. Same credibility as National Enquirer, which is ZERO.

3:30 PM Stop Lying To Us Says:

12:01 good for you. I wish everyone would boycott this tabloid until they start telling us the truth. How hard is it to understand people don't like to be lied to? It makes us feel stupid if we believe them and then find out it wasn't even true.

I stopped buying the "magazine" at least one year ago for the same reason. There doesn't seem to be any accountabiliy with these rags. And US Weekly is not alone -- there are others (Life & Style's another one- but even worse that US Weekly).

As for printing the truth, People magazine usually gets it right. But the problem with People Magazine is they print only stories that have been sanctioned by the celebrity. So if the celebrity is spinning a story they can shape it anyway they want and People will publish it. So we still don't know for sure if it's a true article, all we know is that the celeb OK'd the piece.

Nick is not smarter than Jessica, if it was not for Jessica Nick would be nothing. She paid for him to sing and sign to try to get one song that even sounded good...then the freak had his "new" woman in the video, classic?!!!

This "stunt" takes attention away from her sister's wedding (another stunt).

well i just wanna wish the best to jess and hope she ain't hitting the rocks with tony..when we were about 10 jess and me attended the same school and we hung out for a while..she was a very nice pal and she used to have a beautiful soul, which i hope she still has..so please don't hurt her cuz even though now she acts as a dive wearin louis vuitton and gucci, behind the surface is hidden a very weak and humble person who doesn't deserve to be treated that way.

So is Us Magazine bored with Britney, Paris, and Lindsey that they have to give this no talent scumbag attention?

12:08 PM Anonymous Says:

If Tony showed up just for PR & to look like the good guy then I have lost respect for him. There is no need to play this out any longer if there is no couple. Just let the drama die & both move on. It's life & Jessica will survive. She always does. It may take a bit but Jess always returns.
It's unfortuante that people only dwell on negatives & have such a wonderful time in puttinh people down. It starts with the media too. NO human being deserves what has been handed to Jessica since NOV. She is turning out to be stronger than even I ever thought.

I normaly buy your magazine,weekly at the checkout counter, but because all this drama and lies about JS this week,I decided I will no longer purchase it. Some of your clients are JS fans.
