Slumming It: (Phrase) To be forced into conditions that are less comfortable or lower quality than one is used to.

Hey everyone, Jessica Simpson finally got a paying job! As a beer spokesman! Guess which one? Nope, not Budweiser... Or Miller... Or Coors... Or, uh, Natty Ice. Jessica is going to be the new face of Stampede Light Plus! If you've actually heard of this kind of beer before -- well, you probably live in Texas.

"As an entrepreneur, I am always looking for ways to diversify my portfolio with good ideas and good people," Ms. Simpson said in a statement. "Yes, I work out and take care of myself, but I also like a cold beer once in a while." (Source)

By "diversify my portfolio" I'm assuming she means "pay her mortgage" with hopefully just enough scratch leftover to "buy another pair of those hideous cowboy boots she's always wearing." Sheesh. It's one thing to wish failure on somebody, but this is just getting sad. So if you happen to be in an In-N-Out convenience store and you run into a giant cardboard cutout of Jessica Simpson, make sure to wish her my condolences. And then, you know, maybe draw a mustache on her for me while you're at it.
