Celebrity Feuds
If Jessica Didn't Fire Rob, Who Did?

Jessica Simpson, through Rob Shuter, issued the following statement to TMZ. "I did not fire Rob Shuter, he is a great publicist and a great friend." Shuter would not say, however, if it was untrue that he had gotten the ax.

As TMZ first reported yesterday, Shuter was apparently fired by the Simpson camp after stories intimating Simpson was involved with singer John Mayer surfaced last week. Simpson later refuted that story on "The View" and Mayer was reportedly upset that his name was used in conjunction with Jessica.

Shuter would not say whether or not he still represents the pop singer and would not comment any further.

31. Papa Joe is a total WHORE and to think he was once a preacher LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Both daughters are REALLY BAD singers and don't deserve what they have. Speaking of Jess's arms, considering the shape she was in for "Dukes" - yeah, they are looking fat. Hey Jess, HIT THE GYM or do some curls!

32. Who cares who fired this guy? And... Who cares that he was fired at all? So the guy lost a client. I'm sure he'll find another one.

34. In a day-n-age when so many women, in hollywood, are becomming annorexic, I cant believe that someone would fix their face to call Jessica "Fat".

As long as their are people in the world, like you, no one can ever talk about the bad examples that celebs set!

WHAT BULLSH*T! WHY COMPLAIN ABOUT WHO FIRED WHO, WHEN PEOPLE ON THIS SITE ARE SPEWING THAT BULLSH*T!

TMZ'S PRIORITIES ARE ALL F**KED UP, AND SO ARE ALL WHO RESPONDED TO THE " WHO FIRED ROB" SCANDEL, BUT NOT THE COMMENT ABOUT THIS WOMEN BEING CALLED FAT!!!

35. Jessica's father is a sick pervert. Gawking over his daughter's breasts! Shame on him for that and for polluting the music scence with his two untalented daughters!

37. WTF is wrong with the whole Simpson Clan? They are all too inbred or something. Hoessica is such an attention whore - she'll fire her publicist for air time! Biatch your 15 mintes were over 14 minutes ago - go pretend you're something back in Texas.

38. GO BACK TO TEXAS AND TAKE YOUR INBRED FAMILY WITH YOU. YOUR 15 MINTUES WERE OVER 14 MINTUES AGO. SKIP THE POND AND PICK UP THE IDIOT YOU CALL A YOUNGER SISTER.

39. The Simpson's only look at their fans for the $. Ashlee's tour cancelled or change sites 25% of the time because Joe didn't see enough sales and use the sick excuse. These girls always have some throat problem. Too much tonsil hockey?

40. Jessica's dad is too involved in his daughters affairs. He not only fired Rob but is probably a big reason Jessica is not with Nick anymore. When she was first with Nick and was unknown, that was great but once she blew up from Newlyweds, his opinion of Nick seemed to change.
As her dad, he needs to tell her to put a bra on!!! You can see her breasts and all!!

41. Leave her Dad alone... he helped her get to where she is today by investing his time and caring how she got there. Yes, her own voice got her there but he helped get her to additions and stood behind her to encourage and develop her talent. He helps manage her. He isn't just riding on her coat tails; he has put a lot of work in her career as well. I don't care who she dates. She use to be a role model for girls...I wish she would think more about that again and use her voice as her talent and not act like she did in that recent video where she is at skating rink. There are enough artists that only use sex as their way to get noticed instead of their actual talent and voice. I am tired of seeing successful people especially with such a God given talent act all humble at first then spoiled and awful later....the stars throwing tatrums....they wanted to be out there as celebrities...we need to show respect but at same time they want alot of the attention plus having the money they do and how they act...they should be ashamed. I am not just directing this towards her...I actually like her but I rather her be more like she use to be instead of trying to prove something and just want attention.

42. I think Jessica's only entertainment value was in being married to a good looking guy and living in a nice house. We put up with a lot from her back then, when she was kind of cute, and we kind of envied her. Wow, she really screwed it up big.

GO AWAY JESSICA. GIVE US A REST. JUST, GO AWAY.

45. I can't stand her (or any of the Simpsons) but I think it is funny because she surely must have the last laugh all the way to the bank, making untold millions a year, she and her pimp-paw, sometimes the only real talent they have is for keppin' you people talkin' about them, bitchin' bout them, writin' bout them, their talent is for stirring up chaos, interest, disgust etc, but it all makes them money, positive or negative it keeps their star alive for just a little longer. Just face it... lots of people are famous too easily these days, famous and nobody really knows why, is pathetic, Jessica's should be 15 minutes of shame, or 15 minutes of LAME!
