Things just seem to be getting worse for poor Jessica Simpson. A report in Page Six suggests that the buxom babe might be feeling the heat from her ex-man Nick Lachey, and has apparently resorted to buying up "Team Jessica" T-shirts from the trendy Kitson boutique in Los Angeles.
Simpson's mad dash to snatch up the tees is reportedly a response to keep up with the hotcake-like sales of "Team Nick" T-shirts. According Star magazine, Jess visited the store on May 24 and plunked down $10,000 on clothes, including the tees.
"Jess saw the stack of 'Team Nick' T-shirts was much lower than hers," a source tells the Star. "Nick's T-shirts outsell hers 40 to 1. She said, 'I'm going to wear this.' ... She was kind of sniffling, like she was going to cry."
Is this what it has come to? Nick has obviously been successful in painting himself in a positive light while Jess is looking more and more like the villain.
