Jessica Simpson says she’s not engaged, had to “save” ex Nick

Jessica Simpson is still yapping on about her relationship with Tony Romo. I think the woman is physically incapable of talking about anything other than whoever she’s dating. In a way I understand it, but it makes an already shallow seeming person come off as even more vapid.

Jessica says in the past she’s always fallen for men that she wanted to save – implying that ex-husband Nick Lachey was one of them. She says with Tony Romo, he saved her.

In December’s Cosmopolitan, Jessica Simpson says Tony Romo is different from past men she’s romanced — including ex-husband Nick Lachey.

“I’d always fall for guys I wanted to save,” she says. “For the first time, I fell in love with someone who saved me.”

She says she wouldn’t rule out wedding the Dallas Cowboys quarterback, whom she began dating last year. “I think any person who I’m gonna date for longer than six months, I definitely am investing in something long-term,” she says. “If I get married again, then it will be the last time.

“Nick will always be a part of my life,” says Simpson, who divorced Lachey nearly three years ago. “But next time, I’m marrying the right one.”

Obviously I don’t know the personal details of his life, but Nick Lachey seemed to have his act together, especially when compared to Jessica. It didn’t seem like there was a whole lot of saving needed. But then again she clearly knew him pretty intimately and seems to feel she needed to help him in some way. A lot of women feel that way about men – it’s why some are always attracted to “fixers.” Not that Nick is/was a fixer.

I think Jessica tends to lose herself in her relationships a bit. That’s probably why she wants to be with guys that she can save – so they need her more. She just doesn’t talk about anything other than men. I don’t expect anything of depth or consequence to come out of her mouth, but I’d like to hear about something other than “Tony/John/Nick” all the time. I can understand why she’d want to avoid talking about her acting career (ahem, “Major Movie Star”), but she can talk about her music, her family… hell even her dog would be an improvement at this point. Find new words Jessica. Please.

  1. ZOMG WEAVE. Man, that looks horrible.

    And considering Jessica was and is so stupid, she could barely feed herself, I’d say Nick was the one who “fixed” her, not the other way around.

  2. jessica save someone? anyone? don’t think so. i watched their show. she’s helpless. she can’t boil an egg. she’s a slob — dumps her dirty clothes everywhere — couldn’t care less if the house is a pigsty. oh and remember that episode when she and nick went to a football game? she rolled her eyes in disgust. she truly seemed to hate sports. or was it nick she hated? he is much more together and mature than she’ll probably ever be. if tony was smart, he’d run as fast as he can away from her.

  3. Has it only been three years since she and Nick divorced? It seems so much longer, and not in a good way.

  5. I wonder if she’s referring to her fame giving Nick a boost.

    But otherwise, yes, get a life and an identity, Jess.

  6. I agree CB… it’s about time that she move on, afterall it has been three and a half years. Enough already! It’s not like she’s giving any detail about what occurred during the course of the marriage so there is nothing really to talk about.

    If anything someone needs to save her from her fashion sense judging from those photos.

  7. Her “hair” has a kind of silvery sparkle to it that’s just not working. Like something you’d find on a Bratz doll.

  8. I too admit to watching the show and she was a dimwit. I was embarrassed for her when I would watch it. I felt bad for Nick because he put up with it.

    I couldn’t help but wonder if it was the whole sex thing that broke them up. Because they had never slept together? And, maybe once they DID it wasn’t that great - for her? But, wouldn’t you think they had fooled around before getting married? Not actual intercourse - but some fooling around? I always wondered about that.

    She is an airhead.

  10. Exactly - could you please give the same advice to Angelina. Really tiring hearing her only talk about the current man in her life and her children. Really can’t she talk about something else as well. Every article she talks about her children and war/ brad and their bedroom/ how she travels and flies. New words please Jessica and Angelina. How much longer can we hear the same stuff over and over.

  11. To put Angelina Jolie and Jessica Simpson in the same category is quite the concept. Angelina is INTERESTING to listen too and she talks about a hell of alot more than her kids and Brad (political and charity work anyone?) Jessica is a boring, empty-headed fame whore whose entire life is based around selfishly pandering to her every whim, thinking of someone else’s well being let alone anything outside of her own circle would never even register on JS’s radar..not in any meaningful way anyway

    Please! :roll:

  12. I remember on Nick and Jessica’s wedding special she wouldn’t shut up about how she and Nick were soulmates and there was no one else for her. She is co-dependent like nobody else which would explain her need to “save” someone. By saving someone you are so invested in them and their life you forget yourself. That seems to be her. Watching someone say the same quotes over and over about different guys you begin to roll your eyes and think “wait until the next one”.

  13. I married a fixer and he’s coming along nicely, thank you! :lol:

    Susan… I have some disappointing news for you. This thread isn’t about Angelina Jolie. Maybe you could step away from the obsession for a couple minuted to comment on Jessica Simpson, or even Nick Lachey. :wink:

    I think Nick wasn’t all that great to her. She would call him and call him while she was away and he was at the strip clubs watching booty (when he had very nice booty at home). He was always condescending and put her down all the time. She gives her heart fully to the man she loves and she should get the same in return.

  15. Not that I think about this woman a lot, but I’ve always thought age was the biggest factor in the demise of her marriage to Nick. She was 22 when they got married, and he was 29 (I’m not obsessed, I promise! I just looked it up). Twenty-two is pretty damn young to be getting married, and they’d been together since she was 17 or something. I think it was the classic case of the young girl idolizing the older boyfriend, and then waking up a few years later and realizing she’d grown up and didn’t have anything in common with him anymore.

    She didn’t grow up much, mind you — she’s so ditzy she makes Denise Richards look like a Mensa member — but you change a lot between the ages of 17 and 25.

  16. what exactly did she save Nick from…herself…when she left?

  17. Good points Granger. I DO take issue with her ‘fixer’ comment. There wasn’t much for her to fix with that man. When she married him, she wanted HIS fame and fortune - not the other way around (yes, believe it or not, he was on top of the world with his boy band when he married her), which is why she didn’t have a pre-nup when she wanted a divorce - she thought SHE’D end up being the one to win big in a divorce.

    The show - The Newlyweds - was intended to take advantage of his popularity and her ‘the girl next door’ persona. What it really made all of us realize was that she was a selfish, spoiled, idiotic, diva (not you Diva) wench; whereas Nick was the caretaker of the finances, the home, their relationship, etc.

    I’ll say it on this thread too - Tony Romo would be wise to run before it’s too late.

  18. when Nick/Jessica married he was the bigger star. The Newlyweds show on MTV made her famous, and that fame went to her head.

    She left him and was surprised when her fame went down the drain.

    I wish she would fade away…

  20. I actually have difficulties to hate Jessica Simpson, I don’t know why. I mean, she obviously is not the sharpest tool in the shed and her blabbing about her relationships is neither interesting nor necessary, but still - I feel sorry for her. That’s it. I think she is dumb and sweet and could have been a great wife to someone and really make him happy. (I can’t believe I’m actually typing this. I consider myself a feminist.) She should NOT be a public person - her voice is not bad, but her singing technique is so over the top I find it really annoying to listen to. Her acting skills shall remain undiscussed out of respect for all actual actresses who can act.
    I just can’t hate her for being dumb. I find her annoying, yes, but it’s not her fault she’s dumb, it’s not her fault she never received a proper education because her parents preferred turning her and her sister into cash cows over sending them to college and get some knowledge of the world. Yeah, bottom line: I feel sorry for her. She should live in a Southern State and bake cookies. I actually think she could have been a mother to have a lot of fun with - I’m not so sure now that she’s spoiled by public interest and people telling her whatever she wants to hear for such a long time and her not being able to put the pieces together. Do I have a Mother Theresa complex? Oh my.

  21. She has so much growing up to do still. Maybe she should move back home with Daddy. It’s obvious everytime she opens her mouth. Why isn’t she engaged by now to Tony? Maybe because it ain’t gonna happen. She looks into Tony’s eyes and sees a soulmate; he looks into Jessica’s eyes and can see into the back of her head.

  22. I try to save my ex to have values. It seem to be working. Until he fell back to give no respect for me or his family. Jessica Simpson should know better. You couldn’t change nobody but the person has change for there self! :wink:

    Let get off the Angelina Trip because she might done some good. Not all stuff don’t measure out with her. Angelina Jolie knows how to draw people in. Jessica might be not a smart cookie but has done some good too. People over look her goodness that shadow her dumb action in life. Nick being a singer at the time wasn’t so great. Jessica was making top records. Watch e TV sometime about their true lives. Plus interviews that made it strain with them.
