Jess' lawyer: Romance with Romo still on

11:35 PM Thu, Jan 24, 2008 |
Tim MacMahon   E-mail   News tips

Hope you folks didn't get your hopes up by the tabloid reports that Tony Romo dumped Jessica Simpson.

Her lawyer sent a very scary letter to OK! Magazine (that TMZ.com got its hands on) saying that the story was a bunch of bull and the gossip rag better print a big, ol' correction. Except John J. Rosenberg used much fancier words.

The letter mentioned that the story subjected Miss Simpson to "public contempt, ridicule, aversion or disgrace," and if I correctly read all those multi-syllable words, she might sue. So please, folks, be nice to Romo's lady in the comments on this here blog.

GOSH DANG IT. I WAS SO HAPPY FOR A FEW DAYS THAT HE FINALLY DUMPED HER USIN' BUTT



Posted by Carrie Underwood @ 11:40 PM Thu, Jan 24, 2008

Now, that ain't right. I wore my Romo jersey today in honor of him dumping her! Sheesh. Poor thing, can't take a bit of ridicule without getting her feelings hurt. Oh well. I don't blame her for the Cowboys losses, I just don't like her.



Posted by Rob @ 11:54 PM Thu, Jan 24, 2008

the fact that their lawyer jumped all over this is proof that all the Simpsons care about his media image and public perception. Tony was the target to bring back her career and the Giants have a superbowl run to show for it...

Tony was the target to bring back her career and the Giants have a superbowl run to show for it...their relationship will be done by 3 months after her movie gets released, i've seen this story before

well, I want to believe the breakup is happening because I want to believe Tony has come to his senses.

Maybe someone can find tony and get to the bottom of this.

"So please, folks, be nice to Romo's lady in the comments on this here blog."

Why? There's no chance that Jessica's ever going to read what's written here. Not unless someone helps her with the big words, anyway.



Posted by theogt @ 12:46 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

I cannot recall the last time I read something as atrocious as that letter.



Posted by ali @ 12:47 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

let's face it, tony is smarter, nicer and much more sincere than his latest girlfriend. glamour and glitz can blind but what lies beneath--a calculating heart, i'm afraid, in ms. simpson. if tony's heart is blinded, his head will make him come to his senses, eventually...sorry, the simpson family is just too self-serving.



Posted by jeff @ 1:25 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

Thank god hes still with her. Nothing good would have come of them separating. Good for Romo!

Let's start a vacation fund so Romo can go to Paris with her the week before his next playoff game as a token of our appreciation!



Posted by SMAC @ 1:41 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

We all know that she is not going to let go of the 67 million that easy. Now her dad is getting her lawyer involved so they can get some of Tony's money also-----Tony need to wake up and smell the coffee

Posted by fed-up @ 2:05 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

SMAC, pls..Jessica Simpson is far RICHER than Tony Romo. That $67 million is for a period of SIX years. You divide that and find out how much he will earn per year. In 2006, Jessica already earned $35 MILLION from her business venture. She DOES NOT need his money!!!



Posted by fed-up @ 2:11 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

In fact, I think if Romo loses his job, he doesn't need to worry. Jessica is rich enough to feed him for his whole lifetime!



Posted by fed-up @ 2:18 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

People thought she's not rich because her career has failed but little do they know that her business line is VERY successful and that is her main source of income. In 2007, she was named Top 100 Most Powerful Celebrities in Forbes magazine.



Posted by fed-up @ 2:32 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

If you compare both their fortunes/assets right now, Tony Romo is just a SMALL FRY! Hahaha..

HE should be the one to feel lucky to be with her!



Posted by Dman2112 @ 2:40 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

She may have made 35M in 2006, but her father probably grabbed 99% of that as his management fee and religious tutor.



Posted by RyanA @ 4:31 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

I am so glad they are together, I love our starting quarterback being on the same webpages that talk about:

-Brit's Pal (Sam Lufti) Grilled Like a Cheeseburger
-Cops: Original Gladiator "Laced" with Drug Gear
-Ultimate Warrior: Hulk Should Do Himself In
-Suri Cruise = L.Ron Hubbard and Tom's genetically manufactured lovechild
along w/ countless other Heath Ledger articles

Way to go Tony, your now on TMZ.COM !!!



Posted by Jeff @ 5:37 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

Would she have still loved him if his contract was only for 5 million?



Posted by Rob @ 5:51 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

what's worth more then his money is the publicity that comes with dating a young attractive quarterback of the dallas cowboys. look at all the free media time and buzz she has received since all this began



Posted by Lisa @ 6:35 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

His life is a joke anymore. Does anyone take him seriously as a quarterback anymore? Even when Tom Brady dated Tara Reid for like half a second, he never received this much absurd press. The Simpsons are such users--Jessica hated football and golf when she was with Nick, and now I'm sure she's feigning interest. She's said many times that she loves the celebrity lifestyle (actually said those very words on Newlyweds) and now that she's on the Z-list and everyone considers her a has-been, she needs SOMEONE to jumpstart her pathetic, dying career.

Calling in the lawyers and the publicists over a silly rumor is just hungry and desperate. Take him to a restaurant and tip off the paps like you usually do, Jessica. And seriously...wake up, Tony. She makes him look like an idiot. Or maybe he is as much of a publicity hound as she is? Maybe we all have him pegged wrong. He seems more interested in living the celebrity lifestyle these days than being an elite quarterback.

Enjoy the Super Bowl from the couch, buddy.

"look at all the free media time and buzz she has received since all this began"

But don't forget that she braved herself to be PUBLICLY HUMILIATED in the media, just for this relationship. Why would she choose "Tony Romo" if she's crazy for publicity? She would have hooked up with an A-List Hollywood star if she's really crazy for publicity. Romo is only known in America. The rest of the world never even heard of him! Yes, that includes me cos I'm not American.

The fact that she's still with Romo now proves that she's sincere in this relationship, even after Cowboys lost the playoff. Romo seems like a very charming and humble guy. I'm sure most women would fall for him!

Posted by Jessica is Pathetic @ 6:51 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

If anyone currently has a reason to be upset at the media (or even sue), it's Michelle Williams and/or Heath Ledger's family. For Christ's sake, they had him either (a) overdosing on drugs with a rolled-up $20 bill, or (b) committing suicide. And they were all pretty baseless accusations at the time.

How pathetic and self-involved is Jessica Simpson? Does she actually feel that this is important enough to sic the lawyers on OK? She's obviously a narcissist who needs to see her name in the paper every other day. Get a life, Jessica.

Oh, and she would never break up with him, no matter how bad he chokes in games. He's her ticket back to the spotlight.

She did the right thing to sue that trashy magazine!!! I read that whole article and it was so horrible and humiliating!! I will call her STUPID if she keeps quiet when the media is obviously bullying her! I'm sooo glad she finally STANDS UP for herself. Never let anyone else bring down your pride!!! Just because u're a celebrity, does not mean they own u and can do whatever they like towards u!!!



Posted by traci @ 7:06 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

Have you seen the lighted billboard at Jupiter Chevrolet on 635? It's always go a comment about Jess and Tony. This media attention is crazy we even have car dealers with their 2 cents worth and I'm posting on a blog...



Posted by J @ 7:21 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

I am sorry but I question the some of the fan base comments about how they disapprove of Mr. Romo and Mrs. Simpson relationship, remember we are only human. Heaven forbid what these people would think if they got married.



Posted by hmmm @ 7:22 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

It seems to me that she and Tony are trying hard to keep their relationship as low-key as possible but still the GOSSIP MAGAZINES used their names and created fake stories. So was it HER fault???




Posted by hehe @ 7:30 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

Lisa, it's obvious that u are one of those idiots whose mind has been poisoned by those nasty trashy magazines. See, this is why Jessica must sue the magazine. They have successfully manipulated the public's mind into believing "she's crazy for publicity" and "she tips off the paps"...

Who cares at this stage of the game. No pun intended. I just wish he'd date a nice business owner or school teacher. Someone who isn't in the limelight.

Bottom line, it doesn't matter whether they're together or not, whether Jessica is "using" Tony or not, whether she tips off the papparazzi about the going on in their life... IT'S NONE OF OUR BUSINESS!!!



Posted by Rachel @ 7:52 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

Tony pls. go after someone else. Jessica is ok but get real! You can do alot betetr. Stick with a beautiful brunette in DALLAS not in tintlestown especially when you date Jessica you date Joe her dad and he is a jerk!
I like you Tony Romo. I even name my new alasakan malamute puppy after you ROMO I might have to changed it if you don't dumped Jessica and Joe.
Romo Fan



Posted by Jerry @ 7:54 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

Other is correct, it is not none of our business who Romo dates. But keep in mind, it all comes back to the fans and ticket holders who pay the players salaries and expect them to behave as mature men and perform the best they can on their job.



Posted by Cowboys Fan @ 7:54 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

Who cares? Don't you people something better to do than to worry about this non-news? You must have very shallow lives.



Posted by Monte @ 8:22 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

That guy wants OK! magazine to respect his authoritah!!



Posted by I hate Jess @ 9:09 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

Sounds like she is trying pretty hard to prove something. I'm sure he is tiring of her. Just like Nick, he is probably tired of dating her, her parents, her gay hairdresser, etc. She is a moron. He will be America's Quarterback again once he dumps this loser. Until then, his star is tarnished.



Posted by Natty Lite @ 9:17 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

She makes a movie about working in a big warehouse store and the movie when released goes straight into the bargain bin in the real life big warehouse stores.Coincidence? I think not


2nd try



Posted by Pecos 45 @ 9:18 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

Yet another reason to hate lawyers. (As if we needed one more.)



Posted by RyanA @ 9:23 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

IT IS OUR BUSINESS BC EVERYONE LAUGHS AT US....OR EFFN STARTING QB IS IN EFFN OK! MAGAZINE.

Name some other players in the NFL who are dating celebrities (Tom Brady doesn't count). Hard isnt it?



Posted by Keith @ 9:26 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

This is absurd. It has nothing to do with football and neither does who he dates. If you think she impacted his play then you've never played the game. Its a non-factor and this is certainly not Cowboys related. Leave it where it belongs- in the gossip mags.



Posted by u2 @ 9:31 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

Geez, I haven't been in the media lately...what can I stir up. I know daddy, lets sue the mags and blame my breakup on them. How brilliant, lets generate more media exposure. Oh, look I'm on the front page again.



Posted by Ranch Hand @ 9:32 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

Doesn't anyone here want to talk about football? About the available free agents? About the Draft?

I thought this was a blog for football fans....

Jeeeeeeeezus H Christ!!!

WHAT A CLOSER CALL. JUST NAM MINE PET SHEEP JESSICA AN THINKED I WUD HAS TOO CHANGE IT.


CRAPCHA IS WORSER THAN NEVER



Posted by patsfaninpittsburgh @ 10:19 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

This is really Jones' fault. He was dude you gave the bimbo and her posse the tickets and wanted her front and center.

Face it, your owner wants to win but wants "Hollywood" even more. Have you ever seen Giselle at a game trying to hog the limelight?

Winning needs TOTAL concentration and dedication. Romo probably thought going to Cabo was the right thing. Someone in the organization with experience should have stepped in to prevent the circus.

Anyway "getcha popcorn ready" for Feb 3. Maybe they will double date with TO and Paris for the big game.



Posted by pissburgh sucks @ 10:52 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

Jeez. What was babydaddybrady concentrating on when he was knocking up his baby mama, patsidiot? What about when he was hobbling around in a walking boot in NYC, taking flowers to Giselle a few days ago? Dummy!



Posted by RM Seattle @ 11:03 AM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

Who gives a damn who Romo dates. Everybody is just jealous, because Romo got a back and a front rub from her in Mexico. I know I am!



Posted by John Mayer @ 12:12 PM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

Good point, RM. Jessica Simpson need but name the weekend, if I get to hang off of her golden globes. Everything else in this life can take a backseat for a couple of days. She's fine as hell.

Which brings me to Jizzelle. No, you don't see her hogging it up at games. But who knows, maybe she tries but is unsuccessful. I mean come on, who is Giselle Bundchen? OK, she's probably the hottest supermodel going today, but she's not really marketed to the same demographic that watches the NFL. Jessica Simpson, though... what red blooded American male didn't enjoy watching her shaking her booty in the Dukes of Hazzard? She's always gotten a lot of exposure, and we all know her on sight, whether she's wearing makeup or not. I normally stay away from chick things like runway fashion shows and celebucouple reality shows, but I found myself watching JS's show with that guy just to see her bouncing around without a bra.

How many of us would recognize Jizzelle? She's kind of plain looking, to me. Nice bod, don't get me wrong, wouldn't kick her out of bed except for to do her on the floor, but have you seen just regular pictures of her? She's a butterface. And you wouldn't be seeing her body if she were at a game at Mens Toiletry Stadium, so what's to look at? That butterface, that's what. Now, Jessica Simpson in a t-shirt, shaking her boobs at the camera... oh year, we all watched it, and we LIKED it.

Also, JS is no more of a dumba$$ than Jizzelle, who thinks that anorexia is caused by weak family structure, and that the fashion industry plays no role whatsoever, even though it promotes a "skinny at all costs" culture by constantly foisting the images of waifish women on us.

Also, I think Jizzelle might be the granddaughter of a Nazi war criminal. That's way worse than being the daughter of a creep.



Posted by RAMS FAN @ 12:56 PM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

YOU COW-BRANES BITTER STOP WIRRYING ABOUT JESSICCA SIMMPSOM AND START WERRYING ABOUT THE RAMS! WE'RE SPRINTING OUTTA THE AFC NEXT WEAR TO GO TO THE SUPER BOWEEL! RAM TOUGH! RAMS RULE!

SCOREBOARD RAMS!



Posted by tovius @ 1:49 PM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

Jessica humiliates herself -shaking her DDs at the camera during her beau's football game. She is a joke,granted with lots of $$, but lacks class, intelligence talent.GO AWAY!



Posted by Monster @ 1:51 PM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

Lawyers? Sounds like they are through, but the Simpsons do not want to lose that Pizza Hut commercial. So play vague about it for another week, get the commercial over with, and by the end of Feb there will be no doubt about it.



Posted by JDA @ 2:51 PM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

i'd GLADLY let jess ruin me during one weekend in Cabo!!!



Posted by David @ 5:54 PM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

Come to his senses? Hes be crazy to dump a piece of ass like that! Let him have his little blonde trophy.

Majority of women disagreed with this relationship, majority of men supported this relationship.

Enough said.



Posted by starbucks @ 10:14 PM Fri, Jan 25, 2008

Jessica Simpson is much richer than Tony Romo. Her business fortune has been worth $50 million, she lives in a Beverly Hills house worth $3.5 million, owns a Mercedes Benz and a Range Rover.

Tony Romo lives in a shared apartment and owns a black Escalade.

I think he is the one going after her money. He's a smart guy! :)



Posted by RZ @ 3:53 PM Sat, Jan 26, 2008

Who cares? What's the difference between Romo dating her or anyone else? All of you idiots have fallen for the trick set out by anti-Cowboys media, people of the same strain as those who won't vote for our Hall of Fame-worthy players. It is people like YOU that have caused the distraction for our Cowboys. The whole country laughs at you. REAL Dallas fans should SUPPORT our quarterback, not make it harder for him. Go cheer for Philly or some other trashy team where the fans are quick to turn on their team. I'm embarrassed for you all.
