Us Weekly hits a new low on Jessica Simpson

So today I stopped by Us Weekly and came across this story.

In case you didn’t click on it, here’s the headline: Exclusive: Oops! Jessica Simpson Farts During Business Meeting

Yeah, you read that right.

Sweet mother of Beelzebub. I’m all for reading embarrassing, non-important, downright nonsense about celebrities, but this rises to new heights — or sinks to new lows? — in terms of celebrity non-stories. I mean, if Us Weekly wrote about every business meeting that was … interrupted, I’m sure they’d never write about anything else.  And then I’d never know that Jon Hamm has shaved his beard.

Way to stay Klassy, Us.

    About Me

    I've always been obsessed with pop culture and celebrity, even as a political reporter by day at washingtonpost.com and ABC News. Even after leaving journalism for media relations and consulting (Need help with press releases, brochures, annual reports, or media strategy? E-mail me -- lisa.celebjungleATgmail.com.), I pretended to be mildly appalled by the antics of the beautiful and famous -- then gobbled up tabloids and all the gossip I could find. To date, I've preserved my amateur status as a celebrity news analyst so I could compete in the gossip Olympics, but now I've decided to go pro. As a recent transplant to Los Angeles, or Celebrity Ground Zero, I'm learning to live among them as they roam unfettered over the landscape -- while praying that a behind-the-wheel Lindsay Lohan stays out of my neighborhood.
