Seems the soon-to-be Mr. Jessica Simpson is looking to be more than red-carpet arm candy for his world-famous fiancée, and word is that he's set his sights on the restaurant biz. His pitch? A chain of fast-food vegan restaurants.
It's all a bit surreal: an ex-pro-football player dating a pop princess/reality TV queen, deciding what the world needs now is short-order tofu sticks. But hey, it's L.A.
Almost as soon as Simpson and former NFL tight end Eric Johnson announced their engagement, gossip blogs began carping about Johnson's lack of a job. The Yale grad played for the San Francisco 49ers for six seasons from 2001 to 2007 (though he was sidelined for two seasons with injuries), and then ended his career in 2008 after a single season with the New Orleans Saints.
