Her entire life? Doesnt that mean then that she's always been that dumb? I dont care what her twisted logic for acting dumb is, the fact is that she's always done it. Therefore, she is dumb, and its not just an act.

I've acted smart and self reliant my whole life. I find that guys respect it.

I get your point oboe_88 ;)

I never wish anyone's marriage to fail despite what I may see as a flaw in either spouses. They haven't been married long and they have a chance since the long marriages I have been around the couple could seem as incompatible as a dog and a chicken one moment then one solid union the next. IMO. Disclaimer: I don't apply this to Brit/husband next in line or Jlo/next.

Jessica does say some ridiculous stuff, but I keep blaming the parents since they are constantly around her.

Exactly.



It's a wonder isn't it?

eta:
I'm actually glad that Stee no longer has to recap this show (even though I enjoyed reading them). He's a great writer and deserves better material.

Well, thank you Jessica. Nice to know you're such a great role model for young girls, asshat.

Y'all think she'll be getting "Feminist of the Year" with that?



Thats not just a cliche, its the goddamned truth.

Not that I wish anyone's marriage to fail but....

Nick's gonna be working with a beautiful woman...maybe he'll notice the difference when being around a normal woman (Alyssa) and not just a girl trapped in a womans body (Jessica)? Who knows what can happen.

Unfortunately, letting the photographer snap a few pictures and then leaving doesn't always work for the celeb either. On ET or Extra, Matthew Broderick and Sarah Jessica Parker were shown trying to get away from a photographer while they were walking around New York. The photographer approached them and asked for a picture. They stopped their walk, posed for the cameras, let the guy snap a few photos and started to walk away. Instead of saying "Thank you" the photographer keeps following them down the street. Matthew turns to him and says we let you take our picture, now please let us enjoy our day. Photographer keeps insisting he needs another shot. Matthew refuses, photographer keeps taking photos, Matthew and Sarah Jessica hail a cab and leave. So I have some sympathy for Jessica and Nick, though not as much since the tv cameras are following them around to begin with.

You can see similar situations again and again on "Celebrities Uncensored" (a show I refuse to watch, in fact, I think I'll join Kirsten Dunst in her all out boycott of E!). On the other hand, some celebs' photos, like Jack Nicholson, are worthless to the papparazzi because they will always let the photographers take a photo.

You're kidding, right?

Take out Alyssa and insert Holly Marie or Rose then I will agree with this statement.

For some reason, I found this very funny. It's from the gossip column in today's Washington Post--the same column that told us about the non-connection between Pa Simpson and John Ashcroft.

I could not agree with you more. Exactly what I meant in my earlier post.



Again, I complete agree.



I read two articles where Jessica said that she and Nick do in fact attend church every Sunday. But, that is never shown on Newlyweds because it was not exciting enough to be on the show.

Not buying it. I guess it is my general distrust of the media.

I don't believe for a second that Jessica is dumb. She is building an empire and laughing all the way to the bank. Forbes had her making 4 million last year. I never heard of her until the show debuted last summer. Anyone know what she had going on before then? If I had to guess I would think she brought in those earnings after the show debuted. Not bad.

The more I watch it the more I believe that it is staged and edited. Almost like a sitcom. I have heard her say on more than one occassion that she knows this cannot last and she is trying to get it while it is hot. If there is any truth to what she and Nick say about doing it now before they have kids so they can devote all of their time to parenting then more power to them because they would truly have the last laugh.

She also said they are moving. Based on the recent episode I can see why. Probably after the show ends and most likely to a bigger mansion.


Question about the episode: Does anyone know why Jessica asked Nick what he saw when he looked at that painting in the rented house. I found it to be odd. Does the artist get a kick back for them mentioning it? Their show does have a lot of product placement deals. (Miller Lite, etc.)

I gotta respectfully disagree nique. I don't think her income is proof that she's secretly smart. It doesn't mean that she's dumb either. We just don't know. Lots of dumb celebrities make lots of money in spite of themselves.

I do however have a healthy respect for your distrust of the media. I also would not take what we see on Newleyweds as gospel. TPTB clearly have an interest in marketing Jessica in a certain way. But, IIRC Jessica was not initially known for being dumb, she was known for being a virgin. When the show first started, they had no reason to make her seem ditzy if she wasn't. How would anyone know that this would "catch on"? Why would you risk appearing slow on TV when you are trying to get your singing career off the ground? It wouldn't make sense.

So my guess is that she just acted like herself the first season and low and behold she's not the sharpest tack in the drawer. People tuned in to see what dumb thing she was going to say next and then her people and TPTB realized that they had a goldmine (as evidenced by the buffalo wings commercial, the Jessica does math commercial, blahblahcakes). So is she exagerating her dumbitude now? Maybe. She probably just doesn't hold back. If she has a stupid question to ask (and she has a million) she asks it and hopes that it scores her a new endorsement deal. Does this make her a financial genius? No, just a person who can put 2 and 2 together and come up with $1400 sheets.

Why must Britney continually be referenced in this thread? :)

Jessica is far from smart. Even if she was playing to the cameras, there would be a hint that she had something else going on in that empty head of hers. But there has never been even a flash of wit or brilliance or even average IQ. Her life is the very definition of serendipity.

Considering she and Nick had somewhat successful careers before they got married two years ago and she nearly bankrupted them with the wedding, I don't know that I'd subscribe to that theory.

If Nick or her parents didn't insist she hand over financial management of her affairs after that, then they're as dumb as she "pretends" to be. It doesn't take a genius to cash in on the endorsement deals thrown her way after her popularity exploded. Whether she still has that money in five years is a more reliable sign of her capabilities, I think (acknowledging that unscrupulous artist management appears rampant in Hollywood).

Respectfully disagree with both.

The reason why I don't think she is dumb is from the encounters I have read from people who have met her when the cameras were not rolling. No doubt alot of dumb things come out of her mouth but I don't think she is a dummy. Many times I wonder if she has a media consultant. This leads to my next observation--I am not fond of her family style management team. It is nice to see family unity and other more successful people are managed by their parents but her parents need to go. I guess she trusts them but they just seem so backwoods to me.

I think she was exaggerating about the wedding leaving them nearly bankrupt. I saw their wedding planner on VH-1 and she said that Nick knew where every penny of his money went for their wedding. He seems like he is real frugal.

Just my opinion.

I think Jessica is a bit daft, but not the blithering idiot that she portrays on "Newlyweds". Certainly not to the level shown on her commercials.

I'll give her the "Chicken of the Sea" comment, but many of these idiotic conversations afterward are just "this is kind of silly - let's play this out to see if we can make some gold from it." I figure she possesses the silly, stereotypical teenage girl type of mind, and where she would normally stop talking after realizing she said something stupid, TV Jessica carries it forward.

Someone uptread suggested that one of us attend her concert and report back so we can all laugh and mock. Well last night at the bar I won a bunch of tickets to her show tommorrow. She must really not be selling well at all because all I had to do to win them was bring a Coors Light to the DJ booth. So anyway I'm going with a bunch of friends because we don't have anything else to do and it's a good excuse to get trashed. I wonder how many people there will be over the age of 16? Oh yeah, and they must be so desperate to sell tickets that everyone who attends gets a free hog dog and soda. Anyway I'm sure you'll all be on the edge of your seats until I return to report back.

It will not compare to an Aerosmith concert, but I anxiously await your report.

Slightly OT, but I realized today who Jessica is, after thinking about how I've watched Jessica be all clingy and whiny towards Nick, hearing her say she plays up her stupidity because guys love it, her screwy family, and the strange way religion plays into it, it came to me -- She? Is a semi-singing Lucy Camden.

It all makes so much more sense now.

That was me. I appreciate your bravery, JoePerry. I doubt that I could do it (and I've taken my kid and her friends to almost every boy band concert to hit town). I hope the free tickets came with earplugs.

Edited to add a remark about Miss Aquarius' post - this kind of upper-level thinking hurts my head. If she's singing Lucy and Ashlee is also on 7th Heaven then this whole Simpson family thing may be part of a greater plan for 7th Heaven to dominate television. My head is spinning.

About the papparazi incident - I also don't understand why Jessica didn't put the top of the car up.



I agree. I think the guy didn't know what to do.

Question to anyone who knows: Does everyone on the show wear a mike pack or is there a guy, off camera, holding a boom?



I believe she is dumb because.....



The things she says are acceptable coming from a kid but she is a 23 year old WOMAN!! She seems to lack basic common sense that should be obtained by the time one becomes an adult.

I don't know if this has been posted but Nick and Jessica want to write a book about the secrets of a happy marriage. I guess being married for two years makes them experts. In the proposal you can see how smart Jessica is

She wants to like help others. So like what better way. Than like write a book?
Someone get Jessica in an English composition class! Stat!

Edited for clarity and to add: I can see the book now. A lot of pictures and very few words.

No she D I N D ' T!! She did not just claim to save the world by giving relationship advice. She did not just claim to know anything about marraige after only two years. She did not just claim that people come to her for advice all the time on finding a guy like Nick.
She did not just claim that there are no books on how to build a successful rleationship, only books on how to plan a wedding. Jessie, you little fool, have you been to the book section of any store lately? Even grocery stores have self help books, and most of them center on how to make a relationship work. Uhg, she infuriates me. Specially with the smugness that she then claims to be a role model. I shudder to imagine what type of infantile 12 year olds actually could look up to her

I have to say re: the paparazzi that Jessica did, shockingly, conduct herself very well. She tried to be casual about it and not get visibly upset. I also think she said the smartest thing I've ever heard her say on this show when she commented that the photographers were just hounding her because they want her to do something controversial, like flip them off, so they could get the footage. Just goes to show that brain does occasionally work.

I'm torn on the paparazzi thing. As I said many, many pages ago you can't have your cake and eat it, too. If you're making your living on marketing your image (and not much else) then you have to expect some of that and learn to deal with it. It's part of the package. On the other hand, I do think the paparazzi often go too far. It's one thing to snap a couple of pictures, then say thank you and walk away. I don't think that would be too offensive. But I also have to wonder why they think they need 200 pictures of the star doing the same thing. Obviously it's not just about the picture as Jess so astutely (*gasp*) recognized.

The other thing I don't get is this--do people really buy magazines or tabloids just to see pictures of celebrities? I mean, I certainly don't. The closest thing to a celebrity magazine I read is TV Guide, and I don't have a subscription to it. (Thanks to the fabulous service at my Walmart Supercenter I can usually read the entire thing while standing in line to checkout). I just don't get who is buying this stuff. Obviously someone is or they wouldn't stay in business. I guess I just don't get shelling out 3 or 4 bucks (or more) for a magazine with a picture of a celebrity, even if it was my favorite, buying clothes. Who cares? I'd much rather look at the posed pictures that they do in publicity photo shoots.

On another note, can someone explain to me exactly what KayC was hired to do? I missed the episode(s) where that was discussed, apparently. I thought I read that she was supposed to be J's business manager (at which I almost fell off my chair laughing!) If she is supposed to be managing something, why isn't she ever, you know, working? Unless she's being paid to be a "companion" to Jessica, to go shopping with her, to get eye surgery with her. If so, that's a pretty cushy job, but I suspect the original plan was different than that. Could anyone elaborate?


Aaaahhhhh! Aaahhhhh! *Runs away and covers face in horror!*

The funniest thing about teh paparzzi episode is when KaCee shields her face. Please bitch, no one wants your photo.

Next weeks episode looks HILARIOUS! KayCee and Jessucka get LASIK eye surgery. "What if I never see my Louis Vuitton bags again?"

It's my understanding KC was hired to be Jessica's Personal Assistant...

Oh - and I subscribe to US Weekly - it's my guilty pleasure - mainly for the entertainment info - less so for the paparzzi style photographs... (even less so for endless tales of J-Lo - am I the only one who skips over those? he he)

I think it's obnoxious that those photographers don't just take their picture and leave... Celebrities should expect a little bit of that, but it was utterly obscene what they showed on Newlyweds...

I agreed with Jessica completely on that one. At one point she also said, "They've got their pictures, what more do they want?" And she was right. What the hell is interesting about Jessica and Casey shopping for a cell phone? Who would buy those boring photos? That's why I hate paparazzi -- they don't just get their photo and move on, they harass and goad celebrities to try to make something photo-worthy happen. I don't think anyone who sets out to be famous really understands just how much their privacy will possibly be invaded, if they make it to the top, or how much hassle they will have to put up with. Would you want someone going through your trashcan in hopes of finding something they could sell or write a story about? Just because you want to sell your songs or be an actor or write a great book, it doesn't mean that you want to give up your privacy. And I don't think anyone deserves to be hassled the way some celebs are. Like the story about Sara Jessica Parker upthread -- why does she deserve that to happen? She is a talented actress, that's all.

I wonder about that bare area of land at Nick and Jessica's home. What the hell is that? If it is their property, why is it just ugly bare land? If it's desert, they could still have it landscaped a bit with cactus or other desert plants. I always thought it didn't belong to them and maybe was a vacant lot still unsold (although that was unlikely) but in this episode, Nick is shooing the kids off of it. I need to know!

Eta, I have to (for some crazy reason) defend Casey when she is hiding her face from the photogs. At first I thought also They're not shooting YOU, Casey! but then when I saw the episode, I realized she is just shading her eyes from the flash (which you can see) and/or putting her face in her hand for a moment because she and Jessica are sort of stressed and fed up with the whole experience.

Edited to correct embarassing spelling error.

Since she's never read a book at all, relationship books must not exist.

Can't wait to read JoePerry's report on the concert. You are a brave soul. If your screen name is any indication of your musical taste, you could be in for a long night. May the force be with you.


Oh yes she did! See this just why I say she may be business savvy, lord knows she'll sell a few books. But she is dumb. Because only dumb people don't know their limitations. The smartest people I know are the people who know they don't know everything. She is too stupid to say "yes I could sell a few books, but I have very limited knowledge on this subject. I am not a clinical couselor, I am just a gal who so far has been lucky in the relationship department. I have been married for 2 lousy years and have many more to go." That would impress me.

She could do so many things to help the world. She could use her star-power, however fleeting, to raise money for good causes. She could even, ahem, demonstrate good relationship skills on TV to set an example for the younger set. After all the best way to teach is by example and her example is pretty shaky. How embarrassing will it be when they are divorced and that book is out there mocking her? She is just one step away from becoming a permanent joke.

Sweet fucking Christ. My parents have been happily married for 40 years and even they wouldnt dare write a book on how to have a successful marriage.

PS Jess, just so you know, a secret to a happy marriage cant be found in a book, its what works for the two people that are married. Your way, is not the only way and God knows, it would never be my way.

That's what I thought, too. Anyone find it interesting that, as a 'personal assistant', KC doesn't seem to do anything? She just tools around town with Jessica - often in the passenger seat, might I add. Must be quite a gig. Wonder how much she gets paid. And how odd must that be to serve as the personal assistant to your best friend? I know that celebs often hire family and close friends in those roles, but damn that's gotta be strange.

About the paparazzi in the last epi, to some degree I felt for Jessica when they followed her into T-Mobile and followed her in her car. True, they shouldn't goad people into situations, which they often do. On the other hand, isn't it a bit disingenuous to actively court publicity, then bitch about the natural consequences thereof? I mean, if you didn't want your life to change such that you can't walk down the street without being mobbed by fans and photogs, well, don't become a public figure. I dunno, just askin' . . .

"Daddy, why do I say such stupid things?" BWAHAHA!

Also, adding my two cents to the paparazzi debate...

I feel for people who got into this business before it was such a problem, because they couldn't weigh it as a con to the pros of being famous. HOWEVER; when Jessica (and Nick) decided that they wanted to become reknowned singers, they were well aware this was part of their job descriptions. It doesn't matter whether it's fair or not. It just is. It's a job hazard, basically. Clerks know they might be robbed. Cops know they could be shot. Stars know they could have photos taken of them. Deal. With. It. They chose this path; no one chose it for them.

And I especially can't have pity on someone who buys tabloids and glossy mags in bulk. She's obviously enjoying looking at candid photos of her fellow (or higher-up) celebs, but she doesn't want the same standard applied to her.*

*I apologize if someone else brought this up earlier in the thread... this argument goes on for pages and I could have missed a paragraph or two.

Haha yeah, I'm not a fan. But that's okay because I will be drinking (very) heavily and I'm a fan of pretty much everything when I'm wasted. While I'm there, I'm going to try to count a) the number of people over the age of 16 (not including moms) and b) the number of males. And I'm going to try to find Nick and make out with him.

You guys won't believe this!

In the latest Us Weekly (I'm sorry, I can't help that I'm addicted to celebrity gossip), there's an article entitled "Jessica Saves A Village". It talks about the a woman in a small village in Argentina that makes shawls like that god-awful one Jessica always wore in the first season. Apparently, the shawls became really popular when the shows aired and the number of people working on the shawls more than tripled because of the demand. Tina Simpson says, "The kids in her village can eat and they can go to schools they couldn't go to. She changed this village."

I'm not joking. I wish I were.

She could do something like Christina Aguilera's effort to raise awareness about domestic violence.

Does she do anything other than attend charity parties?

Except now all the little kids have to spend twenty-two hours a day making those god-awful shawls. Could this women possibly be more dumb?

I've been wondering the same thing. If they owned it, you'd think that Nick would at least plant grass or something...though it does seem to get used as additional parking. It's accessed from their driveway, and pretty high-up off the street to be buildable with it's own access.

Maybe it's for a tennis court orginally, and Nick decided not to spend the money building it yet? Is Calabaras dry enough that you have to irrigate to get grass to grow? I can see not spending the money for irrigation if later-on it's to be a tennis court. Maybe their septic system is underneath it, though grass should grow there in that case.

Jessucka's book proposal is priceless. If I didn't know better, I'd have thought it was written by a 13 year old. Excuse me while I e-mail it to everyone I've ever met.


God speed, JoePerry. God speed.

I don't know. It could be great. No one's written a dot-to-dot book about having a great marriage before.

The chapter on maintaining a healthy sex life could be color-by-numbers.



These people astound me. So I guess when Jessica takes a crap she's really doing her part to keep a sewerage treatment plant worker employed. If she bothers to flush.

holy crap, she writes like a 9 year old speaks. No. Writing. Skills. Whatsoever.

She supports Operation Smile - charity concerts and publicity tours and the like. It's actually a good cause.

So, my tv guide calls the friend "CaCee." Does anyone know if that's how it's actually spelled, because good lord that's wrong in so many ways.

Her name truly is CaCee, but many of us cannot bring ourselves to write that without gagging.

So the formula for a successful marriage is to have the in-laws, an entourage, and a camera crew around constantly in the home? When outside of the home never spend anytime alone together? SURE, I imagine that many more marriages would work if you never had to spend time alone with your spouse, never had to deal with money woes, and your spouse was starting to get fat and ugly. Nick and Jessica don't even have a normal celebrity marriage. This reeks of Papa Simpson's Pimping Plan

There are two things that scare the crap out of me about that book proposal.

One -- So Messica is friends with the US Weekly bigwig? The one that most likely buys the pictures from the paparazzi that traumatize her so? That's just back-asswards enough for me to accept it as a reality for Mess.

and Two -- I don't think those are Messica's own words. I honestly think she wrote something, and someone had to edit it to make it sound that good. That? Is scary as hell.

The Washington Post Magazine has a rather silly column about celebrityhood each week--more along the lines of "why do celebrities act the way they do?" than "what is Celebrity A doing now?" Anyway, somebody wrote in asking about young actors who go to prestigious universities, which, interestingly, evoked a comparison of Jessica Simpson to Natalie Portman by the columnist. Unfortunately, I can't find it on the Post's website today, but here's an excerpt:



It goes on to say that, if college life and college courses teach you one thing, it's that life isn't always about you, and that's good for anybody, especially a celebrity, to learn. Of course, it doesn't hurt the old career that college keeps a celebrity out of circulation and therefore slightly mysterious for just the right amount of time, and that when you're done, you now have a cachet of being an "intellectual" celebrity.

That doesn't work with the Natalie Portman idea though -- considering she and her mother are notorious for falsely reporting "stalkers" "lurking" outside her NYC apartment. The last time, they called the cops on some guy who was visiting his girlfriend that lived across the street -- he had been sitting outside reading a book and so of course, automatically, they decided he was a stalker. He? Didn't even know who Natalie Portman WAS.

Holy canolli. That book proposal is scary.


Wha? A is not to B. Those two things have nothing to do with each other! And then Nick quotes a poem that makes him sound 16 instead of 30. 18 months of marraige does not make you experts for gawd's sake.

It's been awhile since I posted, because I simply refused to watch the Newlyweds show any longer after last season. Of course, as my screen name suggests I am, indeed, a loser. Therefore, I glimpsed the first couple of shows this season during a mini marathon this weekend.

I know I am simply reiterating the comments from many, countless others, but.... it must be written.

What the fuck is with this KC girl/woman? I know the editing is probably painting an unappealing a picture of her existence in the Lachey household, but could she be more ungrateful? Am I to understand that she was HIRED TO BE JESSICA'S ASSISTANT???

Dear Jessica,

Guess what? People you have known since childhood do not want to be your personal assistant. True friends of yours want to enjoy an amiable, even emotinally binding relationship with you. They don't want to get your coffee or pick up your dry cleaning. Hello!!!!!

Jesus. Personal assistants don't go to Chang's with you for dinner (and expect you to pick up the tab). They also don't yell, 'Not It!' whan the subject of picking up dinner comes up. Is Jessica really this stupid? Id Nick really allowing this to happen?

Last season, I wrote that we should "Free Nick', because I assumed he needed an intervention. Now, I don't know what to think. I heard that he is going to appear on a couple of episodes of Charmed this season. He should take whatever money he is making from that little stint and pray to God that it's enough to buy his way out of this mistake.

Please, please, please bring back Drew and Leah. I bet they haven't appeared this season because they refuse to be associated with the charade that is Jessica and Nick's marriage.

Which is what makes it even sadder. Because he still sounds older and smarter than her.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that JoePerry was drunk enough to not suffer any permanent damage from the concert.

As for Jessica's book.....

Chapter 1 - Dumb blonde? You betcha. Build his self esteem teaching you things 5 years old should know.

Chapter 2 - How to turn your imcompetence with cooking and cleaning to take-out and maids.

Chapter 3 - How to end arguments with fishy faces and/or pouting.

Chapter 4 - Keeping family and leechers around so you won't have to spend time with just each other.

Chapter 5 - Don't wait for him to find the other woman, bring her to him and call her your "assistant".

Hello! Here I am with your Official Jessica Simpson Concert Recap!

First let me just say that the attendance at this concert SUCKED. Maybe it was because it's the 4th of July, but it's probably because the concert was AWFUL. I had tickets for the lawn, which is usually packed for summer shows, and it was like a freakin desert. I fully expected to see tumbleweeds drift by. Usually on the lawn you are like crammed up against some fat drunk person throwing up, but my friends and I had plenty of room to lay out and relax. There was room for probably 1,000 more people out there. Seriously. Also, most of the food and beer stands weren't open, which I thought was funny. They don't even bother trying to sell food because they knew no one was coming. Anyway overall it was just really weird because I've been to a ton of concerts at this venue and I've never seen it this empty.

Anyway on to the show! Before she came on stage we were subjected to this awfully unfunny video of Jessica "lost" and trying to find the stage. Boring. When she finally found it, there she was in all her plastic, overtanned, overbleached, unhinged jaw glory. She screeched a few songs and then played some Newlyweds clips. The best part was this phony blaccent she was trying to use when addressing the audience. I guess cause it's Philly she thought she needed to sound more "street" but she just sounded like an ass. She told us that we, the fans, are her "livlihood" and she is so thankful that we all accept her for who she is. HA. Then she took some questions from the audience. I really hoped someone would ask "Jessica, how do you think they're celebrating the 4th of July in England?" but alas all we got were lame-o questions like, "what charities do you like and what is your favorite vacation spot?" For the charity question, she said some crap about Make a Wish and then told a story about how back in Texas or somewhere she opened an orphanage with her dad? And then she said how she WOULD LOVE TO ADOPT A CHILD and that she REALLY REALLY REALLY wants to adopt children. I laughed and laughed at that. She said that it's on the top of her list right now, adopting kids and opening more orphanages. Yes she really said that.

More crap songs. More screaming. More jaw on the floor. Sang some crap song that she says she always dedicates to the military. Like, I'm sure now the military can go on fighting because Jessica Simpson dedicated a song to them. Then Take my Breath Away pretty much blew my eardrums out. Then she started blathering on about her family. She said her sister is "the best thing that ever happened to [her]" which I'm sure Nick feels just great about. Then, the best part of the whole concert. She started talking about her dad and their relationship and how close they are, and how hard it was for him to give her up when she married Nick. And I'm just sitting on the lawn screaming "Gay!!! your dad is GAY!" And so she sang a song dedicated to him and while she was singing all these clips of him and her played in the background and I was just yelling GAY GAY GAY the whole time. Then when it was over she said that her gay dad always cries when he hears that. Cause he's gay.

More Newlyweds clips. Crap story about how her honeymoon sucked because there were roaches in the hotel and everytime she and Nick were in the mood, the roaches ruined it. More crap that I missed cause I went to the bathroom to rest my ears. Later she sang God Bless America but before she sang it, she told a story about how when she sang it at the White House, she messed up the words, and she was so embarrassed. So guess what. She messed up the words tonite too. Couldn't tell if it was intentional or not. I honestly think it wasn't though.

For the "encore" she did that 'nothing but a t shirt on song' and came out wearing an Eagles jersey and if I had been close enough, I would have thrown something at her. During the song (and actually other songs she did) she would like hold the mic out to the crowd, but since it was so empty you couldn't really hear anyone singing the lyrics. So it would be like silence. Which was hilarious. You would think after the first 3 times she would stop holding out the mic for the fans to sing, but nope.

Anyway that's all I can remember. It was bad, but she only "performed" for about an hour so the assault on my ears wasn't as terrible as I thought it would be. And I got a free hot dog and soda.
