Trapped on a Plane With Jessica Simpson

Posted on February 10, 2006

Author Steven J. Dubner -- better known to fans as one of the Freakonomics authors -- apparently had some sort of deeply disturbing experience on an airplane on which Jessica Simpson was also a passenger. How do we know that it was deeply disturbing? Because he just can't talk about the details.

Dubner says, "On a separate note, another passenger on this same flight was Jessica Simpson. Without going into too much detail, I will say this: if you are a fan of hers who complains that the media unfairly portrays her as more obnoxious than she really is, you need to come up with a new line of defense."

We simply must know more. What did she do? What did she say? Did she evict all the other passengers from first class so she could have it all to herself? Did she lip synch to her songs while forcing the captain to play them on the intercom? We urge everyone to read the entry (it's in the last paragraph), then post a response, politely asking Mr. Dubner to provide more details of his experience.
