Jerry Seinfeld’s An Ass, Wife Jessica A Plagiarist

Jessica Seinfeld has a new book out. Who’s Jessica Seinfeld? Jerry’s wife of course!

For those who don’t remember, Jessica was married for approximately one month to her first husband, Eric Nederlander, a Broadway producer. Then within about three weeks of returning from her honeymoon in Italy with Eric she began seeing Jerry Seinfeld. Nederlander’s family, like Jerry Seinfeld, is has a lot of money, sadly for Eric, just not ENOUGH money for Jessica, who must have been embarrassed by how little money, as she traded up for a much higher level of wealth by marry Jerry Seinfeld.

Jessica and Jerry met while both were members at a hoity-toity health club facility called Reebok Sports Club in New York. She and her husband called it quits not long after Jessica and Jerry met. J and J were married in November of 1999. Jessica was married to her first husband in 1998. What a lucky mother Jessica has to have the good fortune of planning two gala nuptials within almost a year of each other! Oy gevalt!

Yes, all that historical sluttiness aside, we fast forward to now and Jessica is whoring her book Deceptively Delicious to the masses. The premise is about a mom’s futile attempts to get her family to eat healthy, so she decides to start lacing their food with so-called vitamin packed wholesome goodness. I prefer rat poisoning, but whatever works for you.

Of course Oprah, suck up to the stars, had Jessica on her show to further illustrate how the rich and powerful help the rich and powerful stay that way. Predictably, Jessica’s book became a hit. All was good for the Seinfelds until a woman named Missy Chase Lapine, who’d written a book called The Sneaky Chef complained of plagerism.

Jessica’s been defending herself all about town these days, and recently did so on “The View,” showing us the classic body language of a liar. You can watch the video here. Jessica deflects accusations of plagiarism by being passive aggressive:

“I can understand why she would be upset. You know, first of all when you have a huge success, you know this, people tend to look for the cracks, anything that would break you down a little bit. There’s always negative where there’s positive. This was such an immediate success, this book, that I think people were looking for things to pick a part, but I can understand why she would’ve been frustrated.”

Then as a final nail in her guilty-conscience coffin, she goes on the offensive (and I mean offensive), by basically saying she’s so rich she didn’t need to do the book and so therefore she couldn’t have stolen this woman’s idea (not to mention several almost identical recipes):

“She did a book with a similar topic a few months earlier and it must have been hard for her to see how quickly my book took off. I never saw her book or her recipes. Never as a person would I do something like what I was accused of doing. I mean, I really didn’t need to do this book”

To make matters even more obnoxious, Jerry’s going around calling this woman a whacko and making fun of her. Classy Jerry, really classy. I was never a huge Seinfeld fan, but his growing arrogance and contemptible behavior are really starting to wear thin.

Do us a favor Seinfelds, go hide out in your ostentatious Hampton home nursing your guilty heart on the wine of your fermented tears. Not that there’s anything wrong with that! Thanks D-Listed!
