Jessica Simpson
The former Newlywed star Jessica Simpson has been sued for a whooping $100 million for breach of contract by the Tarrant Apparel Group. The lawsuit alleges that Jessica had failed to promote the low-priced jeans and apparel that she had signed a deal with in December 2004.
The Smoking Gun reports that:
The Tarrant Apparel Group alleges that Simpson, 25, failed to support the clothing lines and even refused to be photographed wearing items from the JS by Jessica Simpson and Princy collections.
Tarrant contends that a three-year deal inked in December 2004 requires Simpson to be “actively involved” in promoting the clothing and that she should wear the garments at “public events, shows, and appearances” whenever “reasonably practicable.”
The lawsuit also states that the company has already paid Jessica $2.2 million and agreed to an additional $6 million in payments. Looks like more problem for Jessica. I wonder if Nick Lachey has to worry.
