I remember where I was when I heard the news

I think I just need to be alone for awhile.

Like a modern day Romeo and Juliet, Tony Romo (Tonotes)and Jessica Simpson, the Dallas Cowboys quarterback and the singer who was once famous for being a singer but is now only famous for dating the Dallas Cowboys quarterback, have ended their relationship.

The pair had little chance of making it in our tabloid-fueled world, what with every ill-conceived trip to the beach and relationship critique from Terrell Owens becoming fodder for the paparazzi and Eminem videos.  Still, they persevered for however long it’s been since they started dating.

People magazine broke the news:

“She is heartbroken,” says the source. “She loves Tony. But it’s been difficult lately. He’s busy with his career and she’s getting ready to shoot her show (The Price of Beauty). They decided to part ways.”

That’s a good source. Even while describing the heartbreak of a friend, the source manages to get in a plug for Jessica Simpson’s new show.

    this on the heels of “And then he Spanked her?” and “whacking day”?

    Regardless, Romo needed her out of his life. His quest for fame and glory on the field (and therefore MY fame and glory as a die hard Cowboys fan) has been sidetracked by her for long enough…for example famously going to Mexico just before a playoff game the Cowboys eventually lost.

    Her skin isn’t yellow enough to be a real Simpson.

  • One of my all-time favorite songs seems appropriate here:

    romeo and juliet
    louis and ms. antoinette
    napoleon and josephine
    mickey and the rodent queen

    antony and cleopatra
    nicholas and alexandra
    ken and barbie, dick and jane
    superman and lois lane

    impressed
    i am not impressed
    i love you the best
    i am not impressed
    it’s a bunch of losers
    a lot of fools
    a list of victims
    not all that cool
    and we’ve got nothing in this world
    to live up to

    i’ll never kill you this i swear
    then kill myself just to be fair
    i’ll never need another queen
    we’ll never face the guillotine

    because love is gentle love is kind
    Doesn’t poison baby’s wine
    isn’t jealous or provoked
    doesn’t quit or give up hope

    impressed
    i am not impressed
    forget all the rest
    i am not impressed
    it’s just a bunch of losers
    it’s a lot of fools
    it’s a long list of victims
    it’s got nothing to do with me and you

  • JS Lawalin

  • Tony Rome

    What song do these lyrics belong to?

  • Stephanie

    I feel bad for Jessica. Romo eh……….

  • @ Tony Rome:

    The song was written by Tonio K, a Christian musician, but it was covered around 1986 by Charlie Sexton, who had a modest hit with it.
