WHY are "J-Lo and Jessica have the flu" stories getting headline status?


"Jessica's Upsetting Experience"

http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=796&e=1&u=/eo/20050223/en_celeb_eo/15979

Michael Jackson (news), Jennifer Lopez (news), and now Jessica Simpson (news)--either flu season's in full swing, or something's up with the bottled water in celebrity land.

Simpson, 24, has become the third A-lister in a week, after Jackson and Lopez, apparently to be waylaid by a bug.

The singer, usually fending off rumors about her marriage to Newlyweds costar Nick Lachey (news), was fending off a stomach virus Monday that left her dehydrated and seeking hospital treatment, her camp confirmed.

The bad tummy struck while Simpson was in Chicago taping an Oprah episode on red-carpet makeovers to air Friday. "She is already feeling better," Simpson rep Brad Cafarelli said in a statement.

:silly:

2. I see Jessica Simpson is playing the "cute little Aryan girl".
:puke:

Also, it's nice to see that Herr Oprah is working with the "common folk". (sarcasm off)

3. Because they had a gay prostitute in the White House, they need things
to distract folks and terror warnings, new videos from "Al Kyda" and the start of American Idol season have failed to make it fade away.

5. I'm still not happy about her being Daisy Duke
The original Daisy was so much better than Jessica.
