Joe to Jess: You Bettah Work!

Posted Jan 2nd 2007 2:55PM by TMZ Staff

Joe Simpson and Jessica Simpson Pimp Daddy Joe Simpson is pissed that his paycheck, er, daughter Jessica, turned down a paying gig to party with John Mayer instead!

A source tells TMZ the family tiff started when Vegas' PURE nightclub contacted Joe to have Jess host a New Year's Eve party for what we are told was a large sum of money. Jessica wasn't interested in working on the holiday, says our source, and told Pops she wanted to spend a mellow New Year's sans glitz and glamour. With her recent Kennedy Center Honors debacle, film flop and tanking music career, the girl's had a rough year! An exhausted Britney Spears would go on to host PURE's festivities, until she fainted.

When Papa Joe found out baby Jessica's idea of a quiet night at home meant canoodling with Mayer at various NYC hotspots, the minister turned Svengali was livid -- not because she was with her new boy, but because she partied -- for free!

With Jessica reportedly not getting reimbursed for $15,000 in styling fees associated with her aborted Dolly Parton tribute, Joe is sure to have his little girl working double shifts in no time. Papa needs a new pair of shoes!

18. I like Jessica. She's sweet and doens't seem hopped up on drugs like the rest of em in hollywood.
Her dad, no the other hand, that guy just gives me the creeps. He doesn't act like a dad.. it's a little disturbing

19. I sure hope karma comes back to Papa Joe because this is getting way ridiculous...so she wants to live her own life and do her own thing and hang out with whoever, then let her! Look at Ashley when she started out...she was so cute and pretty with her humble, girl-next-door look, now she just looks like a wannabe social debutante...wonder who was behind all that ::sarcasm::

Hopefully Ashley will learn from this and stay far from Papa Joe as possible.

20. Poor daddy! He should lay off of her. She needs to ditch him & get some real management. Yet I don't know how she can mess up 9-5 especially if Dolly was her idol, but he needs to get a life. Maybe he can go back to preaching.

22. Father and daughter may be super wealthy, but indeed still losers - I can't even believe John Mayer has taken up w/ Jessica, she def. affects his overall image despite all the media attention he'll now get moreso b/c of her.

24. She needs to fire that disgusting pig of a father. All he wants is to drool over her breasts and cash her paychecks.
