NICK LACHEY’S VERSION OF TOXICITY

Everybody’s talking about Will Smith’s episode of toxic masculinity, but let’s not forget about Nick Lachey’s equally toxic behavior the same night. Nick and his wife Vanessa walked out of Mastro’s Steakhouse with a friend and Nick happened to see a female photographer taking photos of him with her phone from her car parked on the street. He started cursing at her and bolted over to her car- she quickly rolled up the window. Nick pounded on the window and yelled insults, but she was scared and didn’t roll it down. When he finally walked away, she lowered the window enough to ask “Why are you so mad?” That set him off again – he turned and ran back to her car and struggled, trying to reach in and grab her phone. He didn’t get it, but he walked away yelling insults, giving her the finger, and sticking out his tongue. Really, Nick? You should be flattered that someone WANTS your photo…

VANESSA MINNILLO HAS MORE OF NICK LACHEY TO LOVE

JESSICA SIMPSON WILL DO WHATEVER IS NECESSARY TO MAKE HER VH-1 SHOW A HIT

Jessica Simpson is currently shooting her VH-1 series “The Price of Beauty” in India and she’s indulging in the local customs by wearing a bindi dot on her forehead and henna tattoos on her hands. Jessica is determined to make her new show a hit and she’s invited an unexpected celebrity to make a guest appearance on the show: her ex-husband Nick Lachey! Jessica and Nick haven’t made any appearances together since their divorce in 2006. Jessica is appealing to Nick to appear on just one episode and he feels bad about the dog Daisy that he gave her being killed, so he might say yes.

NICK LACHEY TO VANESSA MINNILLO: TAKE IT EASY

nick_lacheycut018.jpgVanessa Minnillo has been showing off an impressive pair of $40,000 diamond stud earrings that boyfriend Nick Lachey gave her. The backstory is that the earrings were sort of a “shut up” present. They were NOT the gift Vanessa wanted. She has been hoping for a diamond RING – an engagement ring, to be exact. Nick doesn’t consider himself ready for that commitment just yet, so he presented her with the earrings to buy himself some time.

TIT FOR TAT

Entertainment Tonight producers were thrilled beyond words when host Vanessa Minnillo started dating Jessica Simpson’s exhusband Nick Lachey. The couple’s photos were plastered all over magazines and papers and it was great publicity for the show. Vanessa became a hot commodity in the celebrity world. Proximity to Nick gave her career a giant boost , just like he did for Kristin Cavallari. But there’s a downside, too. Word has leaked out that Jessica will no longer be cooperating with ET – doing interviews or whatever. Her scoops will go elsewhere.

Puppeteer Cavalleri



Does Nick Lachey realize he was USED like a puppet, for publicity?
Kristin Cavallari cleverly orchestrated and faked the whole “romance” with Nick Lachay to make herself more famous. (Apparently she got tired of yelling “Don’t you know who I AM?” and having people answer “No.” She’s NOT as sweet as she looks.)
How did she succeed in becoming a household name and permanent fixture on the fashion pages? (And WITHOUT the help of a publicist!) Her boyfriend Brody Jenner , whom she pretended split from, was in on the whole scheme and spilled the beans.
IA buddy of Brody’s ran into him at a bar and was overheard asking. “So what happened between you and Kristin? Brody proceeded to reveal that he and Kristin NEVER split up- they just pretended to. Kristin wanted to boost her career and when she encountered newly single Nick Lachey at an event she exchanged phone numbers. She told Brody she wanted to be photographed with Nick to stir up publicity and to please be understanding. Brody knows she’s an ambitious actress and told her to do what she had to do.
Kristin called Nick and managed to get him to take her out to dinner and she continued calling him and found out where he was going many nights. She’d show up and plop down next to him or walk out beside him , always making sure photographers were snapping. She had friends leak info about the fake romance and the gossip magazines fell for it. Easygoing Nick was amused by the publicized romance and just laughed it off. When Kristin had milked it for all it was worth, she announced she was returning to Brody “to work things out.”
