If You Love Something, Get Rid of It: Nick and Jessica to Divorce - Gawker
The image at right (click to enlarge) probably won’t be on the newsstands until 10 A.M. or so, but we don’t see why you should wait for the news: Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpson, America’s Newlyweds, have called it quits. For those of you so self-loathing as to closely follow these things, you’ll recall that in May, E! online reported that the couple had filed for divorce, only to mysteriously retract the story an hour later. But you knew, right then, that this was coming, didn’t you?
Just to clarify: no, I don't care, and I'm not surprised. I'm just bored. (On further reflection, I guess I do care inasmuch as that this has been a made-for-media relationship, marketed to America and shoved through the cable TV to the desperate and morbidly curious. I'm just left to wonder how much of this is a human tragedy and how much is a media/marketing breakdown....)
