Excellent Article, couldn't have agreed more with you, MTV 's going deep under, but so is young society.

May I suggest listening to "Jessica" by Adam Green. It foreshadows ever so perfectly on Jessica Simpson's demise from fame and fortune.

BM will probably get divorced too. Sorry, hun but the author's negativity is not only realistic but grounded in loads of research on learning and developmental levels of college aged students. The best shot at staying married when you are young in today's society is to not grow or develop as to not outgrow or develop your partner. I don't know which is worse, getting divorced after marrying before developing an identity or never growing as a person.

Thank you, finally someone attests to how absolutely immature and annoying these two are playing house.

For this piece of hollywood contrived, boyband trash she saved her hymen? She would have been better off giving up her virginity in the back of a chevy and staying single. And, while I'm sure he's slept with a lot of teeny-boppers in his day, I doubt very seriously he really knows what he's doing.

Is there a way I can get in touch with Matt? I have the same last name, and I'm interested in talking to him.
He can contact me at HHaber@hearst.com.
Thanks,

Awesome article. And btw, to the young bride who thinks that the author is saying all young couples end in divorce...well, not all of them, but statistically, the odds are against ya, honey. And being that they are a "celebrity" couple who got married young, well, it's a recipe for a disaster. The show is addictive though. I like both Nick and Jessica. The distant future might send one or both of them packing, but until then, I enjoy watching.

Dead on. I almost feel bad for the gruesome Twosome. But...not quite. With all their money, they should be able to become Sugar-Parents to hot young Co-eds as soon as they divorce- if they don't piss all their money away, that is. Shame on MTV for the exploitation, but then again, anyone who's every watched The Real World should know what they're getting into. Thank god I live with my partner and have no intention on Marrying/breeding until we're all damn good and ready.

Ok-
i found the author's attitude to be so condescending! it really pissed me off. let me start at the beginning. I am 21 years old. I have been married for 16 months and am sooo happy! Just because we were young and maybe had very little comparative (to other older couples) life experience doesn't make a recipe for divorce. I want to point out that married sparring is REALITY in EVERY relationship...just not every relationship is EDITED for television. my husband and i almost never let people see us fight, but we do. if you never argue- you aren't being honest with each other, and THAT is more relationship destructive than a little healthy nitpicking... also- anyone who needs to make fun of Jessica for being a virgin when she got married is just jealous they have given up something so preciousd to someone they may never see again. just my opinion...obviously the author is either still single (and lonely!) or has a very shalllow marriage if they truly believe what they were writing!

oooh! negativity!
statistically speaking, they may well be headed for a divorce--but who's to say that the newlywed buzz, however cliched and undesirable, isn't fun while it lasts?
And who's to say J doesn't enjoy being infantilized!

To correct what continues to be a misstatement about MTV, you can still see primarily videos in their entirety on the channel from overnights until mid-afternoon most weekdays (and MTV2 does play vidclips 24/7). However, when most viewers only seem to stick around for 10 minutes at the most and switch whenever a song they don't like comes on, then you have to do something to keep them there longer (at least to the commercials). That's why there's long-form programs (and the issue was settled so long ago, complaining about it's like closing the barn door long after all of the horses left).
And when you're criticizing Simpson and Lachey's music because it's not what you grew up on, you're sounding just like your parents (and ain't that a note when elders are offended by innocuous pop?).

I'm not sure who takes the prize as biggest whiner: Jessica Simpson or Efram Potelle of HBO's "Project Greenlight"!!! Care to set that one up for a poll? Either way, I am at once attracted and repulsed at the sight.

What a fantastic piece of writing - I love it. May I suggest someone sends a copy onto Nick and Jessica's people?
