Do you still live in a fantasy world where Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey were married young because they were deeply, madly in love (and not because they were Christians who wanted to screw) and the end of their marriage brought on tears and heartache and pain that only an expanse of years can heal? Yeah . . . No. The end of their marital contract just brought on lawsuits. Lots and lots of lawsuits.
According to Rip Strong at DatelineHollywood.com (who, incidentally, possesses our favorite fake newsman name since Stone Phillips), Nick and Jessica had a contract to remain married for the good of Nick's publicity and Jessica failed to uphold that bargain. Lachey's attorney said,
ìMr. Lachey signed over to Ms. Simpson all royalties from í98 Degreesí songs, his appearance on an MTV reality show to promote her albums and perfume line, and his soul in exchange for 41 months of marriage that would keep him in the public spotlight. The couple has been married only 38 months and Ms. Simpson is in violation of the contract, ending the union early.î
Not his 98 Degrees royalties! Anything but those! Did he really sign away his soul, Mister Lawyer Man? Did he even have one to begin with? We're pretty sure that once the hand of Joe Simpson lands on the skin of any other living being that being's purity, hope, and entire essence are absorbed into Papa Joe's bloodstream and transformed into a source of pure evil.
