The "Price of Beauty" Might as Well Be Free

priceofbeauty0317.jpgHey, so anyone catch Jessica Simpson's new VH1 show "The Price of Beauty" the other night? Yeah, me neither. Apparently no one really did, and the series premiere attracted just one million viewers. And once again, Jessica Simpson succeeds at being a giant failure.

The show got beat by a rerun of NCIS, a TruTV series called Operation Repo and History Channel's Pawn Stars, The Los Angeles Times notes.

Even former American Idol Fantasia Barrino had a stronger debut for her VH1 reality show, Fantasia For Real. (Her show premiere nabbed 2.3 million viewers.) (Source)

Oh jeez. Fantasia Barrino? I didn't even know she had a show, and I'm sure Fantasia didn't have the good fortune of promoting the shit out of it on every high-profile daytime or late night talk show for an entire week leading up to the premiere like Jessica did. I hate to think what the ratings would have been like if John Mayer hadn't called her "sexual napalm" in that Playboy interview. She probably would have gotten beat by one of those Jesus shows or that infommercial for the blender that cooks your food while it's blending. How does it do that?!
