Jessica Simpson is reportedly "devastated" over Nick Lachey's tell-all interview with Rolling Stone/Us Weekly. Not that she cares so much that he revealed details of their split; she's just pissed that he did it right before the release of his sure-to-be-bigger-than-Thriller album. A boy's gotta pay for his Kiehl's and his mani-pedis somehow until those alimony checks start pouring in, and appearing as the hunky-yet-dimwitted refrigerator repairman on every show on the WB was getting a little stale.
That Jessica (and her daddy and the limitless ensemble of people she employs to make the public love her) sure is good at spin. When her soon-to-be-ex-husband manages to wrangle a tiny bit of sympathy by professing his love for her and otherwise looking like a total pussy in major print media, she turns it into him violating her trust and betraying their non-existent relationship (two things that in no way describe getting your fanny mopped by Johnny Knoxville). According to imdb.com:
In the interview Lachey revealed he still loved Simpson and was "blindsided" and "sucker-punched" by her decision to file for divorce. A source close to the blonde singer tells publication People, "She was devastated, heartbroken. She didn't think he would do that." Friends gathered at Simpson's house the day the article hit newsstands to help console her and she even received a call from Lachey himself. A friend of Lachey's tells the magazine, "He wanted her to hear it from him. He felt bad that she was upset, but Nick didn't apologize, because the things he said (in the article) only demonstrate that he loves her." Simpson's camp believes he is trying to use the publicity to promote his upcoming album, What's Left Of Me, which is set for release May 19. The Simpson source adds, "What really upset her was the timing. Nick waited until two weeks before his album debut to tell a reporter that he loved Jessica. That's not cool. He keeps saying, 'I'm sorry I couldn't make her happy,' but he is not choosing to say why."
C'mon, Jessica, tell us why. What is that you want that Nick couldn't give you? Did you want him to dress up like the Swiss Miss girl and stick a cucumber up your ass and he just said, "Let's try that one position where you're on top. That's wild." We bet that's it.
