Nick Lachey & Jessica Simpson’s Marriage Guide?

Popsters Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpson have reportedly turned down a $1 million deal for their proposed marriage advice book.
Despite that fact that the "newlyweds" have been married for less than two years, the lovebirds submitted a book proposal, a "how-to guide on marital bliss," to a New York publisher earlier this year. The book, Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey’s Secrets for a Happy (and Sexy) Marriage, will reportedly share the couple’s tricks for a happy marriage. Apparently, $1 million wasn’t quite the paycheck they were looking for, so they reportedly decided to keep shopping.

"I think people expect marriage to be perfection and that’s not what it is. You see that on the Newlyweds – we fight all the time. That’s what makes a healthy marriag," Simpson said in an interview. She added, "We are not scholars on relationships, but I think we’re definitely in a groove." Did she say "scholar?" It is quite a feat to remain married for almost two years in Hollywood…but that ain’t reality folks!

You’ve got to be kidding, right?! Let’s check back with them in 5, maybe 10 years, and see just how happy they are. Not to sound cynical, but what makes these two think they are qualified to write a "how-to guide for marital bliss?" This is about two people who can’t seem to get out of the spotlight…their wedding was even part of a celebrity special! Variety specials, reality shows, each with their own sitcoms in the works, a clothing line, a make-up line…enough! Nick and Jessica overload! Leave the "how-to guides" to a couple that lives in the real world!
