The Tarrant Apparel Group is suing Jessica Simpson for $100 million for failing to promote their clothes after signing a multimillion three-year licensing deal in December 2004 to launch a line of low-priced jeans and clothing. Under the terms she was supposed to be actively involved in promoting and wearing the JS by Jessica Simpson and Princy lines at public events, but failed to do so, even refusing to be photographed wearing the clothes.
Additionally, when she was asked to name her favorite brand of jeans at an event last year she answered “True Religion” rather than “Princy.” Which makes sense, because True Religion jeans can cost up to $350 and Princy jeans about $60. And this awesome pair of K-Mart jeans I’ve got on? $9.95 baby. Plus tax.

trophywife | April 10, 2006 at 3:33 pm
what a complete waste of oxygen….
oh, by the way, FIRST POST :) i’m not a virgin any more!
cms1234 | April 10, 2006 at 3:40 pm
why is she famous? and how did she get her own clothing line anyway?
Italian Stallion | April 10, 2006 at 3:41 pm
your still a virgin…….lol
What a complete waste of a post…..
Oh by the way, your second Virgin…..
Pikachelsea | April 10, 2006 at 3:42 pm
lol, hilarious.
And do these glasses have their own zip code or what?
Anyway, I do have Jessica Simpson boots. They’re cute. I don’t know anything about her jeans but I think it’s frickin’ great that she won’t even wear them.
Italian Stallion | April 10, 2006 at 3:42 pm
When did she start dating Richard Chueng from “BLOW”……
oshkoshb-goshdammgosh | April 10, 2006 at 3:43 pm
Here’s a better way to draw us in with your headlines: “Jessica Simpson refuses to wear pants, low-priced offers declined”.
Or how about: “Jessica Simpson has Gigantic Hooters”. That one’s on me, Mr. Editor.
gsprescueguy | April 10, 2006 at 3:43 pm
The last set of lips I saw like that had a hook in them.
She’s even too dumb to wear a pair of jeans.
LoneWolf | April 10, 2006 at 3:44 pm
No, no, you’ve got it all wrong. She’s just not promoting her jeans until she’s built up the workforce to handle the production necessary to support the increase in sales that would happen if she *did* promote her jeans. That’s why she’s adopting a kid – gotta start that sweatshop somewhere.
PS, when did David Spade start hanging around with her?
NewGuy | April 10, 2006 at 3:50 pm
We are dating. This is all a big lie. This website is fake and so is my computer. Fakers.
faaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh q.
cms1234 | April 10, 2006 at 3:51 pm
virgin post…she’s such a narcissistic hypocritic Angelina wanna-be talentless waste of oxygen dwarf. she donates “anonymously” to an orphanage in Mexico and wants to adopt a baby! somebody sign her up for the Peace Corp. do they sell TRue Religion in Mexico?
Zanna | April 10, 2006 at 3:51 pm
Even she is getting sick of herself. And what’s with the Jackie-O-esque look? She can’t pull it off.
night | April 10, 2006 at 3:54 pm
She’s a loser!!
Meghann | April 10, 2006 at 3:55 pm
Wow her hair stylist is looking rather gaunt. Losing weight for the spotlight, no doubt. Who does he think he is, Chris McMillan?
CheekyChops | April 10, 2006 at 3:55 pm
Chestica is the opposite of Midas. Everything she touches turns to shit.
CheekyChops | April 10, 2006 at 3:57 pm
and btw, why the hell does that hideous looking hairdresser have to be seen with her all the time? If my hair looked like Shirley Temple’s on the Good Ship Lollipop, I’d have to decapitate myself.
biatcho | April 10, 2006 at 4:02 pm
someone seriously needs to bitch-slap this wench and make her realize she’s going down & is going to need every penny she has. The lifestyle won’t last too long for this one & she’s going to end up needing those shitty jeans to pile her fat ass into once gravity takes a hold of the tits & ass!
xogirly84 | April 10, 2006 at 4:03 pm
maybe she said she likes true religion jeans because they have the word relgion in them. we all know how religious she claims to be….
NewGuy | April 10, 2006 at 4:05 pm
You’re all just jealous of me. I’m used to it and so is Jess. Now excuse me, Ashley and I are going to go bang in her parents bed before Jessica gets back from her photoshoot.
I fart in your general direction.
tits_on_snack | April 10, 2006 at 4:05 pm
I want to smash every pair of stupid over-sized fad sunglasses I see, and the faces that are holding them up.
reptilicus | April 10, 2006 at 4:06 pm
This is terrible news.
Now she won’t have enough money to give to Nick to keep himself in hair gel.
:(
cms1234 | April 10, 2006 at 4:07 pm
lol #18. she probably thought she was so smart when she put 2 and 2 together. she is quite the prolific one
downshine | April 10, 2006 at 4:12 pm
#20, i love my oversized sunglasses. they’re the sex.
oshkoshb-goshdammgosh | April 10, 2006 at 4:19 pm
#23 – I can’t help myself:”their the sex.” Uh oh, this must be the new thing the 8th graders are saying this year. At least we know their paying attention in Grammar Class.
Yes, I find ripping on 8th graders to be an awesomely good time.
MizScarlett | April 10, 2006 at 4:19 pm
Unless she starts frontin’ for Hefty Body Bags, enough with this shit already.
Danielabella | April 10, 2006 at 4:24 pm
She’s religous? When did she decide that? Before or after she signed on for the Baywatch movie?
PapaHotNuts | April 10, 2006 at 4:28 pm
I will pay her twice that amount to promote a new company called “Celebrity Muzzles”.
jennyjenjen | April 10, 2006 at 4:31 pm
I hate her nasty colligen lips, now they have that massive ridge of skin behind her overly filled lips, her plastic surgeon sucks!
Nimuë LaMer | April 10, 2006 at 4:31 pm
What do you want to bet that Nick Lachey is a major stockholder in The Tarrant Apparel Group?
Static | April 10, 2006 at 4:34 pm
#24: What the hell are you talking about, bad grammar?
Her friend looks pretty creepy. I hope they both fall down some stairs.
TaiTai | April 10, 2006 at 4:40 pm
#24 I don’t get it, their the sex. #23 actually had it right with they’re. And aren’t you glad to get all the new fashionable catch phrases right from the source?
Oh and Jessica Simpson totally looks like Nicole Richie in that photo and we all know that is certainly what every young woman should aspire to.
PostmanR | April 10, 2006 at 4:45 pm
mr. lachey is winning the post-breakup public opinion war for sure – with all those babes he’s been spotted with.
Static | April 10, 2006 at 4:47 pm
I have to disagree, #32. Nick Lachey is a douchebag. Not that Jessica isn’t, but..
She actually worked for her money.
Sort of.
This article proves it!
… Right?
oshkoshb-goshdammgosh | April 10, 2006 at 4:48 pm
I’m going to shut up, now…
sirokai | April 10, 2006 at 4:48 pm
The folks at Tarrant must not have attended business school. If so, they would have learned never to do business with a fool.
xogirly84 | April 10, 2006 at 4:48 pm
ok, quick grammar lesson #24. “they’re” = they are. it’s called a contraction. learn it. “their” = possesive pronoun. i commend you for trying to fix the 8th graders’ grammar problems, but maybe, just maybe, next time you should know what the fuck you are talking about.
“at least we know their paying attention in Grammar Class” : oh boy. i’m embarrassed for you.
biatcho | April 10, 2006 at 4:50 pm
somebody won the 5th grade spelling bee & is damn proud of it. holy christ!
Static | April 10, 2006 at 4:52 pm
Good idea, Oshkosh.
By the way, “I’m going to shut up now..” doesn’t need a comma.
You’re a terrible person. :D
carrie bradshaw | April 10, 2006 at 4:54 pm
What’s sad is that people will buy her clothing line only because her name is on it, regardless if she wears it or not. And she won’t actually wear those clothes – c’mon, do we think the Olsen twins trot out every day in their Walmart brand? No. The only celebrity who seems to actually wear her clothing line is Gwen S with L.A.M.B. Maybe sometimes Kimora Lee with Baby Phat too, but for the most part, I don’t believe that celebrities actually use the lines they promote, whether it be hair, makeup, clothing, soft drinks, etc. It’s only to slap a recognizable name on a product in the hopes that it will bring in consumers. Jessica is no exception.
xogirly84 | April 10, 2006 at 4:57 pm
#33, you’re right. Nick is a douchebag. But to claim that Jessica Simpson “worked” for her money is complete bullshit. It doesn’t take much “work” to have your life taped and say stupid shit like “Is this chicken?” or “Do buffalo have wings?”. Oy vey, this girl gets so much more credit than she deserves.
Oh, and Tom Cruise still loves the cock. Peace out.
sometimesboy | April 10, 2006 at 4:57 pm
um, yeah…and you people really think paris ate that hardee’s monster burger in that add last year, didn’t ya…
in all fairness…jessica only lent her name to the cheapy jean line in order to give the mexican orphans a job…it was that or adopt them all, which, turns out would’ve been a logistics nightmare…plus, opening an ‘orphanage’ is much more p.c. then owning a sweatshop…
Static | April 10, 2006 at 4:58 pm
#40, it was sarcasm.
:(
Kaye | April 10, 2006 at 5:01 pm
“When she was asked to name her favorite brand of jeans at an event last year she answered ‘True Religion’ rather than ‘Princy.’”
She probably just forgot to answer “Princy” as she is a moron. When she signed the license, she thought somebody was giving her millions of dollars for being a celebrity… which doesn’t make sense even to my dog.
MeganHarris | April 10, 2006 at 5:01 pm
This is REALLY bad press. I wonder how they are going to sugar coat this.
Why can’t she just wear the stupid Jessica jeans? It’s not like she’s going to look TERRIBLE in them..
little girls everywhere are let down.
Tha-Flash | April 10, 2006 at 5:02 pm
Good on her!
biggutonenut | April 10, 2006 at 5:26 pm
This is a CRISIS!
Nick Lachey is blowing up that cell phone with all sorts of questions..brother is smart enough to know that $100 Million is gonna make his marriage to Jessica practically worthless (except for her being a hot but dimwitted virgin and all).
Someone send Nick some valium pronto. Fight on playa. I feel ya pain.
Spindoc | April 10, 2006 at 5:44 pm
Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the lord my soul to keep, if I should die before I wake, I pray the lord……..
That Nick gets half her money in the divorce, then after that she loses the lawsuit against the jeans company and has to resort to being on “The Surreal Life” just to pay the back due bills on her acne treatment.
Jacq | April 10, 2006 at 5:45 pm
Their biggest mistake was not signing Joe Simpson to promote the clothes. He can probably go on for days about how nice Jessica’s ass looks. Joe probably also thinks that her clothes look better on the floor, if you know what I mean…
P.S. I love you oshkosh. You’re fiesty! No, wait, YOUR feisty. That’s more like it.
BigJim | April 10, 2006 at 5:51 pm
Hey, that guy right beside her is Kurt Cobain. He’s not dead! He’s just hanging out with no talent, brainless, shallow fuckwits.
whackjob | April 10, 2006 at 5:54 pm
Your all loosers and woudnt no grammer or puntuation if it bit you on the ass. Oh, and NewGuy sez fake to. WTF is he on????
Obviously oversized glasses are VERY cool. And it is nice to see Kato is back in circulation.
By the way, didn’t know if you’d heard: Tom Cruise still loves the cock.
