Continuing to throw everything she can against the wall, the increasingly irrelevant Jessica Simpson has landed yet another "job" - selling beer.
The singer, 28, is the new face of Dallas-based Stampede Light Plus.
In addition to appearing in ads, Simpson will also take a 15 percent stake in the brewery. Not a bad gig, except that all of Dallas must hate her.
Tony Romo notwithstanding.
"As an entrepreneur, I am always looking for ways to diversify my portfolio with good ideas and good people," Simpson told the Dallas Morning News.
The brew is touted as being packed with vitamins to support an active lifestyle. Yes, we're serious. It's a vitamin-packed beer.
We give it four months before bankruptcy.
"Yes, I work out and take care of myself, but I also like a cold beer once in a while," Simpson said in a statement she obviously wrote.
Add Stampede Light to the long list of products Simpson is involved with. She has an eponymous shoe line, a bra line, and was just sued for not promoting her clothing lines. Her signature perfume, Smells Like No Talent, Fancy, hit stores August 15.

I am from Dallas and, yes, we all hate her. In fact, we call her perfume Fancy Feast.

iteresting story - made me laugh...
actually correction though. most GIRLS in dallas don't like her because they are jealous and most guys wish they could capture a girl like her.
i'm from dallas too and actually the beer has been around for a couple of years...anyone who lives here has probably seen it.
and it taste good too!

If Stampede Light can make me look like Jessica in her "daisy dukes" I'm all over it!!

I'm a girl. And I'm from Dallas. And I am NOT jealous of her. I would not want to have a washed up career before reaching 30. And, for the love of Pete, who could be jealous of a girl who absolutely cannot take a picture with her mouth closed?
I don't like her because she has no talent. I don't like Hayden Christiansen for that same reason.

I like to look at Jessica, and I certainly envy her money and her body! But would her endorsement encourage me to drink a particular kind of beer? Um, no way! That being said, the photo of her is TERRIBLE -- she looks like Janice Dickerson, for god's sake... ridden hard, put up wet, I believe is the phrase?

I honestly have nothing against Jessica Simpson but I think this was a bad look for her! in this beer advertisement she honestly looks a little drag to me.
