Jessica goes back to High School
Jessica Simpson’s involvement with the Army has apparently translated beyond the big screen in her newest movie, Major Movie Star (which will be renamed as Private Valentine: Blonde & Dangerous), in which she plays an actress aspiring to be a soldier, and has rubbed off on the blonde crooner, as she headed off to Patriot High, Riverside CA, as the price for a text-message contest sponsored by the U.S. Army and K- FROG, a country music radio station.
Apparently, her appearance at the school made a lot of people, particularly the students, very happy. Out of the 11,000 texts, 5, 067 of them were from the winning school, making it clear that the students of Patriot High were bent on seeing the singer- actress.
When she arrived on Wednesday afternoon, Jess was greeted by a group of school administrators, K-FROG staff, a handful of students, and of course, the paparazzi. But these paparazzi weren’t like the ones the Jessica was used to. Seniors Gregory and Courtney Brown were snapping up a storm, just to make sure that her visit makes it into the yearbook. Jessica had made it clear that members of the media weren’t allowed to attend the event.
The excited students were psyched to see her up close, and packed the gymnasium where she was scheduled to talk to them and possibly answer some of their questions.
“It’s a cool thing to happen at a new school,” senior, Chelsea Drachslin said.
Meanwhile, the school’s principal, Jay Trujillo, said that winning the contest was a great way to build up the school which opened last year.
“It’s fantastic for our school,” Trujillo said.
