Jessica Simpson is being sued for the outrageously large sum of $100 million by a clothing company that licensed her name for a line of casualwear, claiming she refused to properly endorse the sensibly priced duds in public:
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...The complaint also notes that when Simpson was asked by the press last year to name her favorite brand of jeans, "instead of responding 'Princy,' she said 'True Religion.'" While Princy jeans retail for about $60, the trendier True Religion denim can cost more than $350 (for the unitiated, "Princy" is the nickname given to Simpson by her father/manager Joe).
