Jessica Simpson prefers an intelligent beer

Jessica

Jessica Simpson is known for a quite a few things: her looks, her singing career (such as it is), her acting career (ditto), and her disastrous effect on Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo. What she isn't known for is towering intelligence. So, perhaps her new print ads for Stampede Brewing, tagged "Be smart. Drink smart," represent a bit of self-parody. Probably not. We wouldn't go so far as to say she looks like a drag queen in this ad, as this post does (have they seen a drag queen before?), but she does sort of resemble Fergie here. Which isn't the look you want for a beer that values include "healthy living, individuality, and personal responsibility."

Her look is a tie between "come hither" and "come hither and help me tie these shoes."

I think Michelob does it best with their ads aimed at women featuring runners, etc. Their message works with the visuals: if you care enough to get up and run and work out, you can indulge in some beer and not worry too much about undoing your workout.

It's the mouth-breathing that gets to me. Maybe she has hayfever?

I've never heard of Stampede … beer with vitamins? Yeah, Jessica does look a bit like Fergie. She must be hard up for a gig these days.

Sounds like something from The Drew Carey Show.
