Let’s face it; being fat sucks. You get all sweaty when you do stuff like play basketball or stand motionless. But now, things just got a whole lot worse for our chubby brethren.
usmagazine.com reports:
Jessica Simpson’s father Joe is being sued by fitness video company Speedfit for allegedly blocking the sale of a DVD starring his daughter.
After signing a multi-million dollar contract, Jessica, 27 recorded a workout tape for Speedfit. Jessica then changed her mind about doing the tape and her father banned its release.
I like that her dad bans the release of a workout tape, but he executive produces a show on MTV thats success depends upon making his daughter look like a complete and total dumbshit.
Now Speedfit owner Alex Astilean has filed suit against Joe after failing to secure a $10 million settlement from his daughter last year.
“They are hurting millions of fat people in America!” Astilean tells Usmagazine.com.
I love how this guy calls them “fat people.” You’d think the guy trying to make money off them would go a little more PC and say overweight or something, but no, this guy calls them as he sees them.
Let’s be clear here, Jessica Simpson is not hurting fat people. There’s two things hurting fat people.
- Tyra Banks speaking on their behalf.
- The fact that it’s legal to buy this:

After being named “America’s Fattest State” for the second year in a row, it seems like the great big tubbies in Mississippi decided to get up off their fat asses, waddle over to their local congressman and attempt to do something about their disgusting fupas. Instead of maybe, say, exercising or showing one ounce of will power, they would rather pass a law that would make it illegal for restaurants to serve them the gooey, delicious lard they so wantonly crave. According to Junk Food Blog:
Some legislators in Mississippi have introduced a bill that will make it illegal for restaurants to serve fat people.
HB 282 will revoke the health department license of any restaurant, fast-food or otherwise, if it serves food to anyone who meets the department’s criteria as being, “obese”.
As the bill states…
Any food establishment to which this section applies shall not be allowed to serve food to any person who is obese, based on criteria prescribed by the State Department of Health after consultation with the Mississippi Council on Obesity Prevention and Management established under Section 41-101-1 or its successor.
The bill will require the State Department of Health to distribute materials to restaurants that will define what an obese person is.
Now that’s a seminar I would thoroughly enjoy teaching. “Listen up class. See the cottage cheese around these thighs? This is a fat person. See the rolls of cellulite hanging over the belt buckle? This is also a fat person. See this photo of Ike Turner? Well, that was a tricky one. He’s not fat, he’s just dead.”
While this will be good for Mississippi, it may mean we have fewer fat people videos. Which would be a tragedy.
