Nick Lachey wants Jessica Simpson's money
In court papers filed last Friday, Nick Lachey said he was reserving the right to seek spousal support even though Jessica Simpson asked the court not to give him any.
The 32-year-old Lachey also asked the court to confirm that "miscellaneous jewelry and other personal effects" are separate property, as well as his earnings from after the date of separation and other unspecified assets. He said they separated Dec. 13, although she claims it was Nov. 23.
It's nice to see Nick fighting for what he so rightly deserves. If hitting on college girls and rummaging through dumpsters for food doesn't entitle you to your wife's money then nothing does.

seeing that nobody really cared about her until she got the show that resulted from their marriage, he's entitled to whatever he can get.

It's nice this isn't getting ugly... :P Since I didn;t care for them before though, I don't really care for them now..

im glad hes going for it, if he were a chick - it would not even be newsworthy.
nick is accustomed to living a certain way, why should he have to settle for anything else?
on the other hand, i hope kfed has to pay britney damages for what he did to that poor girls career.

he deserves whatever he can get from her, being that she is dumb as a doorknob. my take is that her skeezy daddy is making her not give any spousal support to him. aren't these two rich enough that they don't need to go thru all this trouble for a bunch of overpriced jewelry and all the other trash she's collected over the years?

They really should just get back together, who would want either one of them? Dumb & Dumber...

After being with her for so long he deserves all he can get.
Go Nick!

Yeah he deserves payback for all that housekeeping - and foster care!!
Question though - according to the Blind Vice, there's a separated couple whose crap will hit the fan when they go to court because one of them had a fondness for threesomes - without their spouse. I wonder if it's these guys...or Denise and Charlie or who the puck cares!!!

If he gets the support it will just be bragging rights- like when I was in high school and got lucky with my English teacher. How many guys in high school could say they got laid, and with the English teacher and she did my home work and made breakfast.

Hell yeah he deserves 1/2 of her fortune! The fact is, she never would have become so famous & subsequently rich if it weren't for marrying him in the 1st place & then whoring out her marriage on "Newlyweds". Before that, they were both has beens. 98 Degrees was a 3rd rate boy-band (after NSYNC & Backstreet Boys) and Jessica Simpson was a 3rd rate popstar, behind Britney & Christina. Just because her fame suddenly blew up & outshined his, means nothing. Because without him, she wouldn't have it!

Nick apparently wants to keep the diamond encrusted Prince Albert his ex got him for x-mas.

probably is... lol
Paris Hilton's nipples get more publicity than Nicole...
Wait.. who said that first? >_<;;

I think he should go for it. Women burned their bars to have equal rights. That should also go for spousal support. I really could care less about these people. I never heard of them. Until I started seeing them on cover of mags. I never saw their TV show. And I am not into their music.
But I do agree he has the right to half.

gogoboots-
she may be eating but mysteriously she's also spending more time in the bathroom... ;)
18. Posted by Ing on February 20, 2006 4:55 PM
GOOD FOR HIM! She would not be half as rich or famous if it wasnt for Newlyweds..a show they did together!
I also heard she'd been porking Adam Levine since late 2005, which means she cheated on him before they even split. For that reason alone I would say to Nick "'take the dumb bimbo to the cleaners"..what a dirty scrubber..
19. Posted by energy_guru on February 20, 2006 5:13 PM
He deserves half for just putting up with her. Ok well maybe that was pleasurable for him especially with her body, but if Jessica were any girl off the street she'd be clammoring for half of Lachey's earnings so why should Lachey suffer for not being as successful as Jessica. Did I just write that?
20. Posted by ESQ on February 20, 2006 5:20 PM
In response to #14 - LMAO! So true...
In response to #3 - Right yeah, Nick is entitled to Jessica supporting his bronzer habits for the rest of his life...
21. Posted by hotintempe on February 20, 2006 5:49 PM
Her career did kick off once they did that horrible Newlywed show, he deserves every penny for dealing with that ditzy girl.

I understand that Federslime has Nick's attorney on retainer.
23. Posted by princess373 on February 20, 2006 6:28 PM
I saw on the cover of a tabloid this week that she was after Colin Farrell. That would be too funny.
24. Posted by bluecanary on February 20, 2006 7:05 PM
What's really funny is that when they got married, HE wanted the pre-nup, and she said no. BWAH HA HA HA HA!!
And somewhere in creepypervertville, Joe Simpson weeps bitter, bitter tears of regret.

of course nick should get some of jessica's millions, i mean how else is he going to pay for his dates with 13 year olds?
26. Posted by CheekyChops on February 21, 2006 12:41 AM
He's a loser.
27. Posted by DJTennessee on February 21, 2006 1:13 AM
I guess I will no longer be able to refer to Nick as "a poor man's David Hasselhoff"...
28. Posted by LaydeeBug on February 21, 2006 11:04 AM
Am I surprised....not so much! She IS the one with the bigger paycheck. And bigger boobs, and bigger head, and bigger......

I like Nick. He is actually a nice guy. Could just any man put up with their wife's dad sucking the life out of their life? She let money take over her life (and her lips) and now this is just Karma. If Nick gets some change from Jessica, it would only be fair.
Anyway, I was happy when they got a divorce so now he can finally make an honest woman out of me - a rich honest woman. I love you Nick!

I don't care if this is sexist...guys should take care of themselves. Him wanting an allowance from her just makes him a weak little boy. Sex appeal just dropped wayyyy down. And who the fuck asks for the jewelry back? She made more money then him...he probably bought it out of "their" account.

Here's the chronology of events that absolutely leads to Nick deserving half of Jessica's money.
Jessica's album drops just before the Newlyweds show debuts and sells 15 copies total - including the ones she bought as Christmas gifts for her family and friends. A little bit later she agrees to whore out her new marriage to MTV - enter Nick. The show is a huge hit with the "key-demos" and her dad is happy that she can finally show her boobs on national TV. He decides to re-release the album once the single becomes the theme song to the show. The same crappy album goes platinum this time (because apparently the key demos are retarded and only buy things they are told by MTV are cool).
Sidebar - Wasn't the whole MTV telling kids what to buy the plot to the 90's movie "Josie and the Pussycats"? Cue Twilight Zone music.
Anywho...Jessica Simpson becomes a huge no-talent hack (with big boobs) that is then allowed to play Catherine Bach as a blonde in a terrible movie adaptaion that pays her a couple cool mil.
Then she decides she's too "hot" for Nick and cheats on him with Johnny Knoxville and that guy from the band named after a color. And that folks is why Nick deserves half.

They live in California, right? Communal property laws apply. Get a good lawyer Jessica, and not one from the back of a magazine.

He's had been and still a loser riding on her tail!

I agree.

She's a selfish cunt---not even useful enough to be a part time blow-up doll.
37. Posted by rogk on February 22, 2006 10:43 AM
Nick should certainly claim any monies due to him.
And it is easy to claim the moral high ground by giving the money to charity.
This will be a neat lesson to gold-digger women.
;o)
38. Posted by LaydeeBug on February 22, 2006 4:42 PM
It's funny, she's a Cancer and he's a Scorpio, and both those signs are penny pinchers who can handle money well, but would rather buy stuff for themselves.
This is going to be ONE T-R-I-C-K-Y settlement.
39. Posted by miadm2002 on February 22, 2006 7:35 PM
I like Jessica. She's not as dumb as we think. She was smart enough to parlay their marriage into a commodity, then into a movie role and commercials. Nick would get more if he stayed married to her, but my guess is, Jessica is tired of carrying him....

"Women burned their bars"
Well, that was stupid of them. Now where will they go to drink?!

42. Posted by avadias on February 27, 2006 9:41 PM
Regardless of what Jessica did to Nick of cheating or she was asked to play Catherine Bach, who cares? Jessica didnt and doesnt need Nick to be successful. Jessica will continue to be triumphant with or without Nick! As for nick...what kind of man is he when he can't settle for his own but has to munch off someone elses success. It's her body and probably her boobs that got her to the top. If anything Jessica should be asking for the same spousal support since Nick was also a nobody before hooking up with jessica. And if Jessica feels she was too hot for Nick, great! Nick probably feels the same way yet we lean more towards his needs of spousal support he supposably deserves. Cmon people, put yourself in Jessica shoes. Im sure you people would calmly hand over monies to your ex, yeah right!

If I didn't know that Marriage made Jess a star then I would say Nick is crazy for asking for money, but he's not here. He came into the marriage IMO more succesful in his field than she did but left with no success in any field really. She on the other hand came in known but ignored (due to christiana and brit and the hundreds of other blonde tarts at the time who competed against each other) and left hugely successful in means of popularity and opportunity. So, yeah he does deserve the Money and he should get it, even more so in the fact that her dad is her manager and from what I understand wanted them to do the MTv show. I watched only a few episodes and it was okay but it never made me a solid viewer. I just don't care for reality shows really. She is hot as hell but in the end at least give him the money, cause he won't be smacking that ass anymore. Some never get the chance but oh well.
