Newlyweds Nick and Jessica

""Is this chicken, what I have, or is this fish? I know it's tuna, but it says, 'Chicken by the Sea'.""

Reality TV Docu Soap running on MTV from 2003-05, starring pop singers Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey which chronicled their marriage in hybrid soap opera/sitcom style, and has sometimes been cited as a reason for their eventual divorce. Nick played the normal guy to Jessica's adorable airhead. Hilarity Ensues.

A huge hit for Jessica, though there's dispute as to how much of her stupidity was real; some think it's all an act, others think it's all too real. Looking at her movie choices since then suggests that it wasn't entirely an act.
