No Wonder Jessica Is Depressed

Remember when Nick was famous for being in some boy band and Jessica was barely known since she was competing with the likes of Britney and Christina? In fact, Nick was much more well off that Jessica's dad supposedly even recommended that she did not sign a prenup. Then the couple we fell in love with changed and Jessica's career was on fire. Looks like the tables are turned again. Not only has Nick moved on and found a new love but he's back on top according to album sales. Here's more:

To date, Simpson's fourth album has sold a total of 218,972 copies and currently sits at No. 131 on Billboard's Top 200 Album list, while her ex-husband's new album has seen 545,345 sales due to the success of its title ballad.

The Daily News said that those numbers reflect a drastic drop for Simpson, whose last album sold 2.9 million copies, while in contrast reflects triple the amount of sales Lachey enjoyed with his last musical offering.

To be fair Jessica has been spreading herself a little thin lately. Between creating hair extensions, shoes, bags and more as well as acting in films and as her own publicist, there's not a lot of time left in the day for a singing career. Nick, however, is doing just fine. And for pics of him looking fine this weekend, read more

    She is doing everything else to cover for the fact she is not a great singer....and judging from that Madonna sounding Holiday song it is not a wonder she only sold as many as she did...in fact it is surprising anyone paid good money for the album at all.

    I've never thought Nick was attractive. He's just really really really not my type.

    I cant believe you guys are hating on Nick.... no he is not mr wonderful but he is a great guy. I watched all of the Newlywed show and he is so adorable. I am on his team and wish he could kick ass to show Jess what an arse she is Smiling

    He is not that bad looking either

    I'm not much for the clean cut jock type ot the boy band idea, but is is WAY more talented than Jess & deserves sucess after putting up with the Simpsons...
    I think he & Vanessa are perfect for each other! don't really like her, but I went to school with her & she is such the jock/boy-band type!

    i've never been a big fan of nick, he's always seemed like a meathead to me. the divorce probably sucked but i don't think he's handling it with dignity at all. come on, nick, be a man about it.

    I can't stand boy bands or beefcake types. One of my pet peeves is guys who refuse to take their hats off indoors. He always had that damn baseball cap on.

    I love the fact that she will have to pay him a huge chunk of her earnings...while they were married and she was successful....she better no spend all her money on shoes...the Karma Gods are really giving her an ass whopping...first the John Mayer story, then her sister became prettier than her and now this.

    I like nick better then jess... but when it comes down to it-- I really dont care about either of them. THey were funny together, he was such a home-loving, level-headed man's man and she was a charmlingly naive girl from a christian family... oh where did she go wrong??? He is still level-headed, homeboy and she is like the devil in a transexual's body with bad hair extensions...

    P.S> Down with the manbeast tranny Chestica! Yes, manbeast tranny is redundant, but in this case, it is certainly warranted.

    Nick deserves all the happiness and success karma can afford him for living with that family as long as he did. Remember that Papa Joe and Nick never got along..gee looking back.. wonder why?

    i'm more for nick than jess. i think it is very obvious how much she LOVED being in the spotlight. any paparazzi picture with her and nick going out to dinner or what not, she is cheesing away while nick is looking down and trying his best to get to their car.

    as him being bitter with the divorce, i would be too. it's not a hollywood break-up but to be married and divorce is much more devestating. just because they are hollywood doesn't mean everyone is the same, i think nick honestly believed that his marriage would work and he wanted it to. he wasn't very hollywood in the newlyweds and he's definitely more low key, so of course a divorce is a blow. as for him not handling their divorce well, i think considering everything they are handling it fine. it could get ugly...denise and charlie, paul and heather and the list goes on. nick being a little bitter doesn't hurt anyone, that one year mark is coming up and that's usually the hardest for anyone who actually cared.

    there's just a lot of contradicting actions the simpson family have put out there. they praise their religion so much but there are so many non-christian traits about them.

    side note: i know that someone mentioned in a previous comment that jessica should go to oprah and say her side. i'm sure if she really is telling the truth about why her marriage ended her dad would have booked her to do some type of special interview long ago. so that makes you think, what exactly is she hiding....

    i can't think of a single song that 98 degrees did...really i've been racking my brain and i can't. i know most of backstreet boys and n'sync songs and band members but 98 degrees was a blip on the radar.
