Have you ever had that time in your life where you are searching the couch cushions for money so you can afford to put a gallon of gas in your car until payday? Maybe you called in sick because you didn't have the gas to get to work. Somehow I don't think Jessica Simpson is having too many of those moments.
US Weekly wrote some story about how Tony Romo told the people at his gated community in Dallas to make sure Jessica didn't get anywhere near his house. Whatever. I didn't really care about that part of the story or the fact that she asked him for an engagement ring all the time was what drove him away. Meh.
The fascinating part of the story to me was that Jessica paid $19,000 to ship 37 boxes from Tony's house in Dallas to her home in LA. Lets talk about that for a second. If you make $9 an hour you make less than $19,000 a year and she had no qualms about spending that much money to ship 37 boxes. That is like $500 a box. How much did these things weigh? Did she need them there that day? She could have chartered a private jet for less than that from Dallas to LA. When you make enough money that you don't even blink at spending $19,000 to ship 37 boxes then I can take you off the money is running out list in my mind.
I'm guessing that if Lindsay Lohan wanted to move 37 boxes of stuff she took from other people she would throw it in a U-Haul and drive the 1500 miles.
I want a new Jessica Simpson show. If Kendra can have one, why can't she? I kinda like the dingbat. She was at least amusing to watch unlike those crazy Lohan nut jobbers.....
ReplyDeleteenty, you'd be surprised how pricey ups ground can run. *voice of experience*
ReplyDeletewait...why is she shipping tony's stiff to HER house? was this post break up or before? eep.
It sounds like she had 37 boxes of HER belongings at Tony's home (if any of this is true).
ReplyDeleteI think she's an okay person and agree that a reality show about her without a man would be nice.
If she does a show with her significant other chances are she'd have to play the dumb blond role again.
She actually does have a reality show coming out called The Price of Beauty where she will travel the world to see what women do in the name of beauty.
ReplyDeleteHer shoes/accessories line is booming ... so I have no doubt she is set for life.
ReplyDeleteEnty...If you saw my shoe boxes you'd know I helped fund the move.
ReplyDeleteI dunno. I just sent a computer game via UPS to Spain and it cost $110 to send it ($50 game, but the lady in Spain wanted it and was paying for it).
ReplyDeleteSometimes it's almost cheaper to throw everything out and buy new than it is to ship it.
She is so removed from the realities of life.
ReplyDeleteI remember on her TV show with Nick when she bought a couple of bra and panty sets at a fancy boutique and the bill was $800-$900.
Why did he let her have that much stuff at his house? I guess she is lucky he didn't throw it all on the lawn.
ReplyDeleteBy the way - I also helped pay for her shipping the boxes as I own a couple pairs of her shoes. They are surprising comfortable.
ReplyDeletethey must have been filled with her hair extensions.
ReplyDeleteI agree on the atrocity of shipping costs. I have to order craft supplies online a lot, and a 20 dollar order can suddenly go to 80 dollars or more for overnight shippin.
ReplyDeleteShe overpaid, but I'm sure she had an assistant who set this all up. They needed movers to go to his house, pack up the stuff, and ship it. With that price, it was probably overnight. I bet Jessica didn't see the bill until it was all over with.
ReplyDeleteDidn't she buy him a boat? She either has a ton of money or she's in debt to her ears.
ReplyDeleteeek! 37 boxes at his house!
ReplyDeletei kind of like jessica, in a pity kind of way. i hope she does better with her next conquest.
Maybe she insured them? Or she wanted to give LiLo something to do, baha. Nice.
ReplyDeleteI can't get over this picture. Like she looked at him and thought, "Oh I should do the same so I look like I know what I'm looking at."
ReplyDeleteDid anyone ever think she was running out of money? Like others have said, her shoes/handbag line does really well.
