Just Like His Ex, Lachey's Career = Over

Filed under: TV News > Jessica Simpson > Nick Lachey

lachey.jpg

Looks like Nick Lachey's weekend was just as bad as Jessica Simpson's.

As we previously reported, the serial vacationer, Lachey, was tapped to host the High School Musical reality series Get in the Picture on ABC.

Well, the reality competition premiered Sunday to a shitty tune.

It came in #3 with just 4 million viewers on Sunday night.

CBS' ancient but still chugging along Big Brother nabbed 5.8 million.

A repeat of America's Got Talent on NBC came in second with 5.3 million.

Are people just sick of High School Musical shizz?

If they had a 'better' host would more peeps have tuned in?????

We think it's both!

  15. sup says – reply to this

    Ok Perez…this is just mean. What is it that you do??I used to think you were funny. How many people watch your show??? Atleast he's contributing to society and not sitting on his ass making fun of other people. (some do deserve it) But look in the mirror at yourself Perez. He's talented, and that's wrong of you to say he's OVER. Screw you Perez.

    Can you not admit that Jessica Simpson is actually doing good with her country single "Come On Over"? Or that her clothing, shoe, handbag line are successful and releasing a perfume in a few weeks?

    Seems 2 me like someone is BITTER they aren't Jessica…lol.

    BITTER QUEEN!!!

  17. tara says – reply to this


    17

    I ALWAYS HATED HIM!! NO TALENT!

  18. Ms. T says – reply to this

    ain't nobody trying to watch that mess. It is played out just as bad as from the Justin to Kelly junk that was out years ago. No one watched that and no one is interested in another high school musical. If that is the case bring back not another teen movie

  19. Ben G says – reply to this


    19

    Perez, please learn a little bit about ratings. That was an astronomical success for a growing franchise with an idiotic show. They made millions idiot.

  20. Stace says – reply to this

    A. Over
    B. That kid from Non-p looks like Taye Diggs so at least she has good man taste

    Nick is the best thing about the show!!! it's the "talent" that sucks. all the auditions were shiteous

  22. hehe says – reply to this


    22

    i bet if paula simon randy were judging this, it would have opened with 30 million viewers.. when are the other networks gonna realize that the judges make idol nr 1 and all the idol clones, like this one, Fail. its not the talent show format that people tune in for, it's the judges chemistry..

  23. Maria says – reply to this


    23

    Nick Lachey is HOT and he's a REALLY NICE down to earth guy! And he DOES have talent.



  24. 24

    I think it was that High School Musical shit….

  25. Ethel says – reply to this


    25

    Perez you are looking good since you lost weight. Keep it up.
    Nick is Hot and has a voice, Jessica is not and got boo'd at her show Saturday night, Tony Romo make like Tom Brady and leave your baby mama and find a girl with some talent and class. Two wrongs don't make a right.



  26. 26

    i like nick, he can sing too, idk i don't watch tv so …

  27. oscar says – reply to this


    27

    I never heard anything about the show…I think it has to do with poor promotion of the show not Nick. I love him and want him to succeed!

  28. chris says – reply to this


    28

    You are so f**kin crazy! Didn't the stupid show Clash of the Choirs filmed in December bring him 1st place and everyone was drooling over him. This show is just stupid because who wants to watch except you - Paris becvause you have the hots for Zac Effron. People are tired on this kind of show - it is just another copy cat.
    Nick Lachey is coming out with a new album. He is just a nice guy that got screwed by a brainless, daddy's girl.
    He is a good singer, writer who has his shit together.



  29. 29

    ONE IDEA TO SAVE BOTH CAREERS=
    A NEW REALITY SHOW CALLED: NEWLY-EXES HAHA
    THIS COULD BE FUNNY ;-)

  30. Mary says – reply to this

    I like Nick. The show sucks because it's a bad show. I hope he's still able to revitalize his career. Jessica and her family used him and put him through so much, he deserves to find happiness and success without the totally messed up, crazy, talentless Simpson family.

    What's wrong with #3? Nobody watches TV on Sunday nights….it's all relative. Whatever…I don't give a crap about this guy…but be fair. Third isn't that bad.



  32. 32

    HE IS TOO BORING FOR THE MUSIC-INDUSTY, MAYBE HE SHOULD PLAY SMALL ROLES IN A MOVIE TO GET MORE ACKNOWLEDGEMENT CAUSE I THINK HES A NICE GUY…LIKE SMALL STEPS TO COME BACK, OR MAYBE IN A SOAP OPERA LIKE JACK WAGNER
    I SEE HIM BETTER IN TV THEN IN MUSICBUSINESS……JUST A THOUGT

  33. Roche says – reply to this


    33

    Oh! I didn't realize it was on! We were watching the ESPYs last night. I would have supported Nick had I known it was on. Obviously, they didn't promote it enough before airing. Go Nick! I love you!

  34. Zoe G says – reply to this


    34

    So, Perez, does that mean that YOUR career is also
    O-V-E-R?!?!?!?!
    I mean, based on your criteria all signs sure point that way. How many people tune into YOUR SHOW? How many "fans" showed up for YOUR clothing line launch? How many people showed up for YOUR "Prive Party"?
    There is a way to report on the entertainment industry without being so downright hateful. Especially when you have had such lackluster success with anything other than your blog. How do you feel qualified or entitled to say someone elses career is O-V-E-R when you've been involved in such major disappointments lately?
    You might want to start being more careful, Karma is a bitch and you know your 15 minutes isn't going to last much longer…………………

    YAY FOR BIG BROTHER!

    And being in 3rd place with millions of viewers is bad how? Your an idiot you fat loser. Just waiting for the day someone gets tired of your shit and pops a cap in yo fat ass.

    i started watching this last night and got bored, so i turned it off
    it was uber lame!

    His carreer never was up, so it can´t fall.

    How is 4 million viewers bad? And atleast he's doing something with his career, what was he doing before this? He hasn't had a steady job for awhile. I like him as a host (: he's friendly, likeable & sexy. I like the show too

  40. tammy says – reply to this

    Since when is #3 bad? Has your show ever ranked nearly that high?
    P.S. I don't even like Nick Lachey, and I love you, but I think your articles are ridiculous sometimes.

    he's GORGEOUS! Perez show more pics of Nick please

  42. CABO says – reply to this


    42

    I watched a little of it and switched back to the Espys…the talent that they were scouting was pretty terrible….Nick didn't have a lot of face time in it. The show featured mostly the talent scouts.

  43. yum!! says – reply to this


    43

    Hes fine as fuck! Im 30 so not into the whole teenie high school musical deal, been there done that shit years ago, I would watch Nick as host of something i was interested in though! I'd give him some babies! Now if only he would dump that chipmunk!



  44. 44

    I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE Nick Lachey no matter what shitty show he's hosting…. it's the show peeps! leave Nick out of it! I think the whole HS Musical bs is OVA….it is so lame and played — I think who ever advised Nick to host it should be fired at once. Nick has always been and will always be HOTTTTT!!! I wish him and Jessica would get back together where they belong. Enuff of the Vanwreka and RomoRobot…..NICK & JESS FOREVER!!!

    perez, fuck off. At least Nick is getting off ass and working. What do you do? You sit on your ass bitching and calling people when you are the most pathetic type of person ever. Calling people who are working is just a new low for you, your a freak.

    He's a genuinely kind, honest, decent young man with a lot of talent and good looks. He has career, trouble, not because he lacks talent or a fan base but because he makes poor career choices. The album he did while he was married to Jessica was extremely cheesy and it cheapened him. Some people are STILL having trouble taking him seriously after that first "Shut Up" video he did. Cheesetastic. But Nick is a great singer/songwriter and he has a personality that people really love. If he finds the right vehicle, he will be unstoppable. He's one of the few decent human beings left in Hollywood so I think you, Perez, are an asswipe for ragging on him. Just how much does Joe Simpson pay you to trash Nick? There is no other explanation. The man has done nothing to deserve your crap. And speaking of your crap, I hope he kicks it out of you the first time he ever runs into you.

    LOVE..LOVE…LOVE NICE……SUCH A HUNK AND A NICE GUY…..SHOW MORE OF HIM…PLEASE!!!!! YAY….I HOPE HE KICKS THE CRAP OUT OF U PEREZ…U R A JERK…….

    Hater
    Whatever Perez..
    He is so sexy and hot.
    Nick I am doing you all day
    On the A list, the D to Z list baby…
    And when u are off the list.
    BTW…I am a spinner



  59. 59

    Nick seems to be a smart guy but as he has said he doesn't like the limelight so thats why you don't see him much. I know he loves sports and I heard he is doing a lot with that so Nick good luck with the sports thing but I think you need to and you should make another album. I saw Nick in concert when he came to Dallas last year, he was good but I'm a HUGE fan of JESSICA SIMPSON, I EVEN GOT TO MEET HER THIS YEAR 2008 here in Dallas.

    Um, Piggez, as you can see from about 99% of the comments on here- people love Nick….myself included, so stop the hating idiot. He is hot and talented and a nice guy. The SHOW, however, is a ridiculous fake "competition" in which the contestants, from what I understand, win nothing. Total crap. In summary- Loves the Nick, hates the HSM fake bullshit manufactured crapfest of a show. Okay? Okay!

    Since when is coming in number 3 a bad thing? I would think being in the top 3 is good. Plus, there was not much promotion for this — I think I saw maybe 2 ads ever. Plus, this show would have been for younger viewers - and in the middle of summer, what kid who likes HS musical would tune in rather than be swimming in a pool?
