Jessica Goes Divorce Courtin'
by Sarah Hall
Dec 16, 2005, 3:45 PM PT
Jessica Simpson is officially closing the curtains on her marriage.
The "With You" singer filed for divorce from her estranged husband Nick Lachey Friday, citing the ever-popular "irreconcilable differences" as the reason behind the split.
According to the filing, the divorcing couple's "community and quasi-community property [is] unknown at this time" and the petition will be amended once said property is sorted out.
Dukes of Hazzard star has requested that the judge not award spousal support to Lachey. She is also reverting back to her maiden name, having legally changed her name to Jessica Lachey after their marriage.
Simpson has hired high-powered divorce attorney Robert Kaufman to represent her, while Lachey has engaged legal eagle Laura Wasser. Both lawyers are seasoned veterans of defending A-list clients and can boast a bevy of celeb cases under their respective belts.
Their past experience may come in handy in the unraveling of the union of the Newlyweds costars, which has the potential to get complicated.
Published reports have suggested that Simpson's refusal to sign a prenuptial agreement at the time of her marriage to Lachey could come back to haunt her.
At the time the couple tied the knot, Lachey was the wealthier half of the couple, as a member of the successful boy band 98 Degrees. According to TMZ.com, Lachey went so far as to get a prenup drawn up, but couldn't get Simpson to sign.
Because the couple had no prenup, earnings amassed during the marriage are split down the middle under California law--a detail that would work nicely in Lachey's favor, considering his singer-actress wife earned $35 million in 2004 alone.
The former fun couple tied the knot in October 2002 and launched the MTV reality show chronicling their day-to-day existence shortly thereafter.
Rumors of the breakdown of the twosome's marriage began swirling months ago, but reps for both halves of the pair denied that anything was amiss.
Late last month, however, word was issued that Simpson and Lachey were indeed calling it quits after making a mutual decision to separate.
"After three years of marriage, and careful thought and consideration, we have decided to part ways," the couple said in a joint statement issued Nov. 23 by their respective publicists, Meredith O'Sullivan and Rob Shuter.
"This is the mutual decision of two people with an enormous amount of respect and admiration for each other. We hope that you respect our privacy during this difficult time."
Since the breakup was announced, Lachey has committed to star in a new sitcom for the WB, while Simpson has been working on her upcoming album, And the Band Plays On.
In a recent interview with Star magazine, Simpson's younger sister, Ashlee, claimed her newly single sibling was "doing great."
"We all had a great Thanksgiving, all the family was together and we had a wonderful time," the younger Simpson gushed. "Jessica's breakup from Nick" was not a topic of discussion at the dinner table, she said.
Ashlee herself, on the other hand, was doing less than great on Friday. The I Am Me singer was rushed to a Tokyo hospital Thursday after collapsing at an MTV Japan performance.
Her father-manager Joe Simpson told MTV he was waiting for an official diagnosis before deciding whether to travel to Japan.

JESSICA'S HOOK-UPS REVEALED
Jessica Simpson
Dim lighting, a plush booth in the back and a tipsy Jessica Simpson downing vodka tonics as she cozies up to a hunky, dark-haired crooner. But on the night of Sept. 4, 2004, at the celebrity-friendly Whiskey Bar at L.A.'s Sunset Marquis Hotel and Villas, the studly singer that Jessica, 25, cozied up to was not her husband, Nick Lachey! More than a year ago — even before the rumors of Nick's bachelor-party antics with porn star Jessica Jaymes and other indiscretions began plaguing their three-year marriage — Jessica was caught canoodling with Maroon 5's Adam Levine! "It was obvious that Jessica and Adam were very attracted to each other," an eyewitness who partied with the pair that night tells Star. "They were cuddled right up against each other, side by side, giggling and whispering romantically into each other's ears. Jessica was putting her hand on Adam's leg from time to time."
JUST FRIENDS?
An innocent flirtation? Could be. Reps for both Simpson and Levine, 26, say that the two are just "friends." But it seems that Nick, 32, has been wrongly vilified for his apparent wandering eye — especially in light of virgin-till-marriage Jessica's own extracurricular explorations. She's been linked in reports to her Dukes of Hazzard co-star Johnny Knoxville, as well as his bad-boy Jackass buddy and skateboard star Bam Margera. But Jessica's latest boytoy may be Trace Ayala, 25, Justin Timberlake's business partner in the William Rast clothing line, who she's been spotted cozying up to in L.A. since mid-November.
A rep for Simpson insists that Ayala, who recently split with fiancée and 24 actress Elisha Cuthbert, 23, is close friends with Jess' best friend and assistant CaCee Cobb. "That's a complete hoax," a Simpson source tells Star. "I think Trace is hanging around Jess because he wants to be her boyfriend," the source says. "But Jessica told Trace she can't date him 'publicly' for at least six months. Trace is gaga for Jessica, so he'll go along with anything at this point."
BROADWAY BOUND
In any case, it seems Jessica, who has been crashing at her parents' home in L.A. since the split with Nick, is ready for a fresh start — which means relocating to focus on her acting, including a possible stint on Broadway.
"She's doing everything she can to break away from Nick. She's even thinking of moving to New York to keep a safe distance," says a Simpson source. "She's asked her staff to find her an apartment in New York so she can move east and start a new life!"

She was worth less than Nick at the time of the wedding, which probably goes a long way to explaining the lack of a pre-nup.
And now he gets paid for having to listen to her for all these years. Can't say I blame him.

Nick Lachey's presence at a raunchy bachelor party last year may cost him happy marriage with Jessica Simpson.
The marriage, which is already in the stage of official separation, may end sooner if Jessica Jaymes goes public about her raunchy sex acts with two female friends (an Asian and a blonde) in front of Nick Lachey and his friends.
The sexual performance included "whipped cream and sex toys", Star magazine had reported last year.
At one point, Lachey got on the bed with the girls and seemed in a trance. But, a male friend of Jaymes intervened and pulled Jaymes away from the bed.
According to the New York Post, Jessica Jaymes is reportedly asking one-million-dolar plus syndication rights to the entire story with steamy details. And she even plans a book about this incident!
The deal has been proposed to Life and Style and In Touch, as well as Us Weekly, National Enquirer and Star, but no one so far had interest in what Jaymes has to say. [/q]

I don't think Nick should be taking the blame himself. Supposedly little miss virgin til marriage was messing around with Adam Levine from Maroon 5 since May of 2004 and many other people. She's as much to blame as Nick Lachey.

Nick Lachey reveals in a new interview that he used to put on Jessica Simpson's shoes and walk around in them – "It was sort of a kinky thing we liked to get into," he tells Elle magazine.
Other revelations from Lachey, 32, in the post-marriage interview include him owning up to "typically (being) an overly sensitive person, I lay my heart out there too often." For instance, he tells Elle, "I've never been shy about crying. Sometimes we're so scared of our emotions that we rob ourselves."
Among his emotional admissions: He still thinks his ex is the sexiest woman he's ever seen. He's also a proponent of candid conversation ("I haven't even realized my full dirty talk potential," he claims) and expresses a degree of surprise over the marital breakup, blaming it in retrospect on "the exposure" the two had on their own MTV reality show, Newlyweds: Nick & Jessica.
As for Simpson, 25, she's set to give a special performance at the Jan. 10 People's Choice Awards, airing on CBS. She's a nominee for favorite song in a movie for her saucy version of "These Boots Are Made for Walkin'" in last summer's The Dukes of Hazzard.

Jessica Simpson is embarking on a not-so-public affair – with singer-songwriter John Mayer, PEOPLE has confirmed.
"She's tiptoeing back into the dating world," a source tells PEOPLE. "It's the first stage. She's never been happier."
Mayer, 28, began a co-headlining tour with Sheryl Crow on Aug. 24, and Simpson, 26, is expected to attend his concert in Jones Beach, N.Y., on Wednesday night.
Simpson is currently in New York promoting her new album, A Public Affair, which was released Tuesday – although a bruised vocal cord has quashed any planned performances. Similarly, Mayer had to cancel his Hartford, Conn., appearance with Crow on Saturday due to laryngitis, the Associated Press reported.
The two singers have known each other for several years and last year both attended Clive Davis's pre-Grammys party in Beverly Hills.
Although Simpson has been linked to Jared Leto and her Employee of the Month costar and Teen Choice Awards cohost Dane Cook, Simpson has not officially dated anyone since her November 2005 separation from Nick Lachey.

I seriously, highly dig John Mayer and, if this is true (and there is a great chance that it's not since these "sources" are rarely accurate), it's really disappointing. I watched "Newlyweds" constantly and have read and seen so many of Jessica's interviews and find nothing redeeming about her. She is not talented, she is not intelligent and she is not nice. Blech.
