Jessica Simpson was a pop diva in the late 1990’s and early 2000’s. Though she wasn’t the Princess of Pop like Britney was by any means, she still made a name for herself with everything she’d brought to the table during that time. This included her reality show with ember ex-husband, Nick Lachey. They starred together in their own reality hit reality series, ‘Newlyweds: Nick and Jessica’, between 2003 and 2005. The show was groundbreaking, and so was their marriage. I think every little girl who was a fan of Jessica Simpson looked up to her marriage, and looked at their marriage as something they aspired to have for themselves. Simpson was a role model. And unlike Britney Spears, she did, in fact, stay a virgin until marriage. She told People at the time, ‘My virginity is something I stand strong in. It’s not always easy. But I do respect it. Virginity can be cool and sexy.’ Their marriage, however, wasn’t cool and sexy whatsoever. Here, we break down Jessica’s entire relationship with Nick, and describe how his ego got in the way of their marriage, and how he’s still using her as a weapon almost 20 years after their divorce. We explore how Jessica was failed by not only Nick, but (quite literally) by every man she’d ever encountered in her life and career, including her own father and her soon-to-be ex-husband, Eric Johnson. We then analyze the body-shaming she’d endured during the late 2000’s and early 2010’s, as well as her alcoholism. And finally, we explain what her recent return to music means to women everywhere.

Britney Spears: The Exploration Of How Her Postpartum Depression And Her Kids Were Used As A Weapon In Her Conservatorship – And How Paris Hilton Was Her Only Friend And Confidant During That Time
Britney Spears is an icon in the music industry, who’s personal turmoil overshadowed that talent. First, she was married to Jason Alexander (No, not the actor), a marriage that lasted only 55 hours. But before you joke and make fun, that’s not the shortest ever marriage in history. The shortest ever marriage in history lasted only 3 minutes. And yes, you read that correctly; only 3 minutes. Following her Vegas marriage and divorce, Spears was married twice more. First to Kevin Federline between 2004 and 2007, and then to Sam Asghari between 2022 and 2024. She had two children with Federline, Sean Preston and Jayden James. Asghari supported Spears through her fans’ ‘Free Britney’ movement, which led to her being freed from her conservatorship. The conservatorship began in 2008, and finally ended in 2021. In 2017, Spears dedicated her first ever Icon Award to her kids. She said in her acceptance speech, ‘My two loves of my life, my sons Jaden and Preston, you’re the reason my heart beats. I love you so much.’ During that time, she was still under a conservatorship, which began in 2008 and ended in 2021, gave her father, Jamie Spears, control over her finances and personal life, but it was terminated in November 2021 after a court hearing. Here, we break down Britney’s path to the conservatorship and what led her to it, we explore her friendship with Paris Hilton and how their unlikely bond makes perfect sense, and explain how Britney’s postpartum depression and her kids were used as a woman in her conservatorship.

Emily Osment: An In-Depth Analysis Of All The Reasons Why Women Everywhere Should Be Embracing And Celebrating The Idea Of Short-Lived Marriages – And Everything That Miley Cyrus And Firerose Have To Do With It
Actress Emily Osment is now getting a divorce from her husband of 5 months, Jack Anthony. And yes, you read that correctly – 5 months. Court documents filed by Osment list the date of separation as December 7, 2024, which means they were only married for 2 months before separating. The former couple were together since 2021, and were engaged by 2023. In a statement to People magazine, Osment said, ‘I think with any big decision in your life, whether it’s relationships or work or whatever it may be, you have to firmly plant both feet in that decision. Ultimately, it didn’t work out.’ Miley Cyrus, Osment’s ‘Hannah Montana’ co-star, had a similar end to her love story with Liam Hemsworth, star of ‘The Hunger Games’ and most recently, Netflix’s ‘Lonely Planet’, co-starring Laura Dern. Cyrus and Hemsworth were together for 10 years before announcing they were separated in August 2019 after 7 months of marriage. They’ve both since moved on with other people. To say that they were actually together for 10 years would be a bit of a stretch. They were on-and-off for years, and the off period lasted a couple of years at times. Miley’s father, Billy Ray Cyrus, who rose to fame in the 90’s with the hit song, ‘Achy Breaky Heart’, also divorced his second wife, Firerose, in 2024 after 7 months of marriage. He and Miley’s mother, Tish, finally divorced in 2022 after more than 20 years together and multiple divorce filings that never came through. Firerose accused Cyrus of ‘extreme verbal, emotional and psychological abuse’, and claimed that he was ‘unpredictable and volatile’ due to alleged substance abuse. Cyrus, in turn, accused Firerose of making unauthorized credit card charges and claimed he was verbally, emotionally, and physically abused by her. With all that being said, we’re break down the history of marriages and why they end, we explore the changing roles of women in marriages, and explain relation between Osment’s divorce to that of Firerose and Miley Cyrus.
