Jessica Simpson’s clothing empire is expanding even more! Just last night, Jess launched her new denim line with a private party in New York.

According to People, Jess celebrated with close friends and family like sister Ashlee Simpson, and even her new boyfriend Eric Johnson.

Each guest received their very own pair of jeans, and were invited to upload a photo of themselves in their best-fitting style to Jess’ Facebook page. For each uploaded image, Jessica will make a $1-donation to her “A Beautiful Me” initiative, which aims to inspire self-esteem in the lives of young people.

Jess’ new jeanswear line is really cute, and we love how she has a different look to fit every body type—from the skinny jeans, to bootcut, to her own take on the “jegging.” The prices are pretty amazing too—ranging from $44 to $69!

Jess seemed happier than ever...

Judge to Snooki: You're Rude and Self-Indulgent

Image by Splash News

Snooki was just slammed by a New Jersey judge! The orangey stout Jersey Shore star arrived in court this morning to face trial for her drunk-in-public arrest in Seaside Heights, NJ on July 30th.

And apparently the judge wasn’t really in the mood for Snooki. Judge Damien Murray called Snooki a “Lindsay Lohan wannabe,” and asked her if her arrest was all an act.

He also told Snooks she should decide if her “rude and self-indulgent" actions were "worth trading your dignity for a paycheck."

Snooki got off easy with a $533 fine and just two days of community service. She told the court she was “very embarrassed” of her actions, and had never done anything like this before.

That’s nothing! If the judge really wanted to punish her, he’d have taken away Snooki’s unlimited tanning sessions and pickles!

UPDATE: Dina Lohan doesn't seem to think the judge's comments...

Lauren is currently in talks to star in another reality show, but it's not going to be as dramatic as The Hills.

"The only way I'd return to reality TV would be if it allowed me to decide when the cameras stop," she tells Us Weekly.

An insider told the magazine that Lauren "is getting her very own reality show -- and that the networks have been fighting over it."

She recently told Cosmopolitan magazine that she was over reality shows and would never do another show like The Hills. "I have to be passionate about the next thing I do," she said. "I don't think I could ever do a show like The Hills again. I would go crazy."
