On Saturday, Jessica Simpson tweeted the above image with the message, “I met a wonderful man. Damn I’m lucky!” Now… I wasn’t even going to talk about this story, because I’m back to feeling sorry for Jessica. For a while, she was really pissing me off and aggravating me with her powerful stupidity, but now I’m back to my default Jessica emotion, pity. Plus, the consensus from other sites is basically: “Jessica is a f-cking idiot, and this guy is no prize.” The guy in question is this Eric Johnson dude – the one she’s been with most of the summer, the dude who dropped out of Wharton Business School to be with Jessica’s boobs. The dude that most people think is using Jessica.
Now, I’m open to the possibility that it’s true love. That she and Eric Johnson are very happy, and that Jessica isn’t bothered by the fact that she’s financially supporting Eric, and that he doesn’t seem to do ANYTHING beyond f-ck her and tell her those jeans don’t make her look fat. And maybe that’s all she wants out of a relationship. God knows, it’s not like she brings some wit or intelligence to the table. She brings her boobs and her money to the table, and that’s about it. Too harsh? She seems like she would be very easy to talk to. Because it’s like talking to a brick wall. A really dumb brick wall with a huge rack.

I would never date a broke, jobless, motherf*cker. Ever. When I say that people call me shallow. 🙁 I have dated broke, jobless, motherf*ckers though. They clearly offered love and emotional support even if they couldn’t buy a fu*king movie ticket. (Men bring out the profanities in me :P) However we see men dating broke women all the time but often times the woman has a job of sort. I think he needs to get a job doing something. I thought he was a football player? Well he can be broke but he needs a damn job, Jessica.
The title of the post sort of says it all, doesn’t it Kaiser?
Why did he have to drop out of school to be with her? She doesn’t really have any career stuff going on, if it’s such true love, why not move to wherever he is so he can finish school?
Why am I trying to apply logic to a Jessica Simpson story?
I wish I cared about Jess’ love life, but I dont- Instead I want to remind everyone its TIM GUNN BOOK RELEASE day,
Make it….
I feel sad for her that she apparently believes that she needs a man to validate her existence. I really wish this cultural meme would just go away, but it’s constantly reinforced via movies, music, women’s magazines…
Apparently, Jessica isn’t jobless. I heard her fashion line at Macy’s is doing really well, and she’s about to introduce a new denim line. I doubt she actually “designs” the clothes, but at least she’s a successful bussiness woman.
Here’s the thing. Maybe he is alright and she is happy and the job doesn’t matter. Fine. I’ll buy. BUT what drives me is that pic where she is wheeling bags as he walks with nothing. DUDE, get the bags. If you are not going to school or to work or anything else you can AT LEAST open doors and get the chicks bags! Fool.
Oh Missy, I own like 6 pairs of Jessica Simpson heels. They are just so comfortable and they are actually cute. Affordable too. I know people love Jessica’s hair extensions she does with ken Paves. Jessica is a very successful business woman. As long she has a prenup if she marries this guy and she is satisfied with things, I say more power to her.
What on earth kind of kiss is that in the last picture??
That pic of them ‘kissing’ is repulsive.
I’m so tired of the “lets hate on Jessica” stories. I really, really am. No one knows what their story is, no wonder her relationships don’t last, the pressure on them in insurmountable. And no, tweeting a picture of them is not over and above what any other celeb does so don’t even start.
Also, I know that this is the nature of this site, but it really bugs me when people take Star Magazine/National Enquirer etc as fact.
Move over, Leann….make way for Jessica!
looks like he doesn’t like to help with the luggage either…
wasn’t he in sports?
seems like lifting luggage would be ok.
The fact that he dropped out of school, separated from his wife in February, is unemployed and is living off of her appears to be unimportant. Do you have a big “L” on your forehead, Jessica? (L=loser). Let him live off the couple of million he made in the NFL.
I wouldn’t compare her to Leann, since she didn’t go after a married man with small children. As far as the job, yeah, I wouldn’t date a man without a job, but my life can hardly be compared to hers. I actually need money to live every month and she doesn’t. Her situation is like any man who supports his woman and there are PLENTY of those in Hollywood. No one says a word about these women and that they should get jobs, but because the person in this relationship with the money is the woman, its a big deal, I guess. Maybe this works for her. To each her own.
Anyone worth being with is going to have their S*&t together. That means being financially independent. She is being played and in the future she and women like here (Jennifer Love Hewitt) need to become less co-dependent. I sound like a therapist!!
I have to LOL at the kissing pic, it looks so staged and phony. I wonder who she thinks she’s fooling, herself that he’s so in love with her or the readers to make them think he’s so in love with her. Either way, she seems desperate when it comes to men. Didnt she have to pay an agency a lot of money to meet this guy? I thought I read that somewhere??
and the countdown until he dumps her begins..
desperation is not attractive
Here is the one thing that bugs me in general about who pays for what.
Why is it completely socially accepted that a female can be jobless and no education… but it be socially acceptable for her to be shagging a rich man who pays her bills.
And I am talking about a female who has no desire to work for a living.
I am not going to rain on Jessica’s parade. At least this boy has a education.
And chances are he will be working in the sports media before too long.
As much as Jessica is mocked. The girl could get this boy in the door to get a decent job.
jessica move over
This guy seems like the type who will go to the tabs and sell “their story” after they break up. What do you suppose it is about Jessica that makes her feel the need to brag about this loser?
maybe she isn’t as relevant as she once was, but how can you say that this guy isn’t good because he’s a ‘nobody’ or ‘not a prize’ personally – hes hott and he treats her well it seems and she’s obv attracted to him, how is that not a win? she’s got more money than she’ll ever need and doesnot need someone to support her. how is that not a good situation for her? i dont get it!
I actually think she has a very attractive face and body (most of the time) and that a lot of guys would be thanking god for being able to bone her, so it’s not like she has to buy lvoe. On the other hand, she can do a LOT better. He needs to get a job.
Why finish business school if you’re dating Jessica Simpson? He can live off her and be a fat, happy house-husband until he dying day.
really you buy he doesn’t have a job? he made a few million in football & was in the league for 6 years most of which he was injured.. Jess has made comments before ERIC that her man didn’t have to support her.. What Jess is looking for is a real man for her. Don’t most women look for that in a mate.
What happnes now when it is discovered ERIC actually does work.. Do we then get apologies? What si so different then with any woman in real life that expresses her love for her man in public. Jess is no different & several celebrities have done just that.
Jessica is not dumb by a long shot. Not even close.
I say back off & let her live her life. She has NO sex tape, NO drugs & no Jail time. I guess that too normal for most right.
GO Jessica.
I’d like to know what this woman looks for in a man, besides a large penis and a fairly decent looking body. jeez
She should be concentrating on her career, not men. I am sure her fashion line does well, but if she’s not careful she will end up like Marilyn Monroe. No decent guy while she wastes time doing nothing solid. She’s going to end up with nothing later. She’s now a tabloid creature, not an actress or singer.
It’s premature to call him a looser. Do we really know he’s jobless and broke? He must be pretty smart if he can get into the Wharton School of Business in the first place! I’m just tired of people bashing Jessica Simpson. I believe she is actually smarter than most people think.
You know, I’m revising my opinion – @malachais, maybe that’s all she really wants! Maybe the lovey-dovey thing is just a smokescreen for the fact that she’s a freak, and a slave to the dick. John Mayer said as much; I know he’s a total douchebag, but his “radical honesty” switch seems to be permanently stuck in the “on” position.
Your last paragraph Kaiser had me laughing out loud 😆 . Hilarious stuff. She really is as dumb as a brick wall.
lord, this girl is desperate!!!
Will ALL be perfect now that she has a piece of a man???

@ #1. You’re an idiot. All women are gold diggers. It’s funny women expect men to be the bread winners in the house. It’s also funny that feminist fight for fare and equal wages in the work place but turn right around and date guys on their ability to make money. Unlike most jobs, SPORTS and Actors stay wealthy even thou they are not working. Just because a pro athlete isn’t currently on a team or a movie star hasn’t done anything in a while doesn’t mean they are broke. Having 1,000,000 in the bank will earn about 150,000 a year JUST out of interest.
Men financially support women all the time. Kudo’s to this guy if he is indeed broke in which I highly doubt for getting by from her.
The least the paid escort can do is help cart out the luggage.
She needs to find happiness in herself and not someone else. Rather sad actually.
Eric Johnson is ‘jobless’ but I don’t think he’s hurting for money. When he was with the San Francisco 49ers, he was paid at least $9 million a year. Then he went to play with New Orleans Saints and was paid $2 million n 20009. Currently he’s selling his house in Redwood City, CA for $2 million.
I want to know what the hell she is doing with the swatches of white powder under the outside corners of her eyes.
she used to look @ nick just like that…
I’d like to know what this woman looks for in a man, besides a large penis and a fairly decent looking body. jeez

Wait… you mean there’s more?
and this gem:

Really? ALL women are gold diggers? All of us? Are you certain about that? My husband makes good money as a session and road drummer. But his income is sporadic and he has a daughter to support. My income is steadier and way more dependable, especially when I hook into a longer term job (television is better for my career than movies if one is looking for stability – I’m in production). I’m hardly a gold digger and I probably contribute slightly more to the household than my husband, but it doesn’t matter because we’re a team.
I think it depends on what you seek in a relationship. If a desire to work is important to you then I can see how you would want someone that feels the same. Personally, I do not care to work. I would much prefer to sleep and play with my kid. But I do work because I have responsiblities. This guy probably has money in the bank and can afford to take some time off. Just because he doesn’t currently have a job does not mean he can’t get one.
My husband was once jobless and a drop out, but now he has a career and is supporting our family while I attend college. Throughout it all, I have loved him.
Besides, they have only been dating for a few months. If I were her I would not be too concerned with finances yet.
And yes Crash2GO2, that is waaaay too much concealer! Look at the picture of her kissing him, she barely has makeup on and doesn’t have very dark circles. There is no need for that much makeup!
So she’s not the sharpest tool in the shed. Doesn’t mean she doesn’t deserve someone who really cares about her.
Something tells me it isn’t this dude!
And @ 33
I earn my own money, thank you very much. And not dating jobless men is often not really about money. Being “kept” by a partner means being dependent instead of being on equal ground. Which is not a good basis for a relationship, at least in my book.
I can’t stand celebrity lines that the celebrities don’t believe in enough to wear themselves.
Why should we buy non-fair trade labor-made plastic Jessica shoes so she can keep buying more Louis Vuitton? (See also: J.Lo). Plus didn’t she already get in trouble with a previous denim endorsement when she kept wearing another, designer brand’s, jeans?
At least SJP wore her line day-to-day, in public.
Just think, your JS shoe & bag money would be going to Joe Simpson and Eric Johnson!
If anyone remembers how she treated Nick on ‘The Newlyweds’ then this relationship should come as no surprise. People may think he’s an idiot but by not accepting that place at Wharton Business School he removed all doubt.
At least he could help her with those bags…deadbeat
Maybe Jess was trying to be independent and non-needy by dealing with her own bags but honestly, the guy should have insisted. If that was a test then he blew it, but yet she’s still hanging with him and actin in love. WTF? If he’s a hired gun it’s because Jeremy Renner used her like toilet paper and she is saving face with this guy. Why doesn’t she spend some time exercising and working on insecurity issues? She’s kind of a sad creature and could probably use some therapy.
