Global Gossip 21.07.2009: Part 2

Jessica Simpson and Tony Romo

Girls a word of advice, badgering your partner into propsing to you is never going to work out well, just ask Jessica Simpson. She was apparently dumped by Tony Romo because she begged him for an engagement ring. Jess drove Tony crazy by constantly talking about settling down.  Tony didn’t feel ready to marry Jessica, so he decided to end their relationship on the eve of her 29th birthday earlier this month. Come on Tony, did you have to do it just before her birthday – that’s pretty cold.  A source told Britain’s Star magazine: “It got to the point where that’s all she’d talk about. She would speak to him all the time about buying an engagement ring. Even in public. Jessica expected it last Christmas. Then she thought she would get one for New Year’s Eve. And when by Valentine’s Day it didn’t happen, the tension between them became explosive. The night before her birthday, Tony warned her that he wasn’t ready to buy a ring. They had a massive fight and Tony cut the cord for good.” Hope you’ve learned from that one Jess.

Chris Brown

Chris Brown has apologised for his assault on ex-girlfriend Rihanna. Don’t you think it’s a little late Chris…about five months to be exact? In a video posted online he says sorry for his actions – which led to a conviction for felony assault last month – and insists he accepts “full responsibility” over the attack in February, which left Rihanna with several facial injuries and temporarily unconscious. In the video, Chris says: “I felt it was time you hear directly from me that I am sorry. I take great pride in me being able to exercise self-control, and what I did was inexcusable. I am very saddened and very ashamed of what I have done. My mother and my spiritual teachers have taught me way better than that.” Was it really necessary to broadcast a video to the world? It seems it’s not only Rihanna’s forgiveness that he wants.
