Nicholas Khayat/ ABACA PressFrom chicken of the sea to dropping the kids off at the park, Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey are entertainment for the world on their MTV show “The Newly Weds”. People laugh at their reasonings and how they are the opposite of each other.
To many, Simpson appears to have no common sense but a good work ethic and Lachey appears to have no work ethic and watch sports all the time, but a firm grasp on reality. They, despite their differences, appear to have a happy marriage. But is this the real thing? They seem like the quintessential Barbie and Ken.
Students on campus seem to believe it is the reality of their marriage, but not the average marriage. Sean Gracey, a senior history major, said, “Yeah, I think so. They’ re a young couple in the mix of a new marriage in the spotlight.” Some may say due to their circumstances, money and fame, they might live differently than the rest of Americans.
Kimberly White, a sophomore English/communications major, said, “I think that’s really how their marriage is. Even though sometimes their life might be a little more extravagant, that’s what their life is, and they are sharing it with us.”
Many find the show also is absolutely hilarious. White said, “I love it!”
“Really funny, it shows the true side of blondes,” Gracey said.
Some marriages are better than others, some marriages last longer than others. Whatever the case, students find the show funny and feel it depicts the realness of the married life of pop stars Simpson and Lachey.
