Support the independent voice of Dallas and help keep the future of Dallas Observer free.
Local photographer Mike Fuentes sends along this photo of Jessica Simpson snapped yesterday during her meet-and-greet (good with a $75 purchase) at the Stonebriar Centre Dillard's. By all accounts, she was perfectly lovely to the couple hundred who showed -- loads of "Thanks, y'alls" through those shiny whites -- only plenty of folks were said to be standing in line at 1 p.m., when Tony's Gal was whisked out the adios door despite the pay-per-view appearance. And to think, courtesy Mr. Fuentes, you coulda gotten the same view right here, absolutely gratis. Oh, and it was totally newsworthy: Hey, the mayor of Frisco showed -- introduced her, even. --Robert Wilonsky
Keep the Dallas Observer Free... Since we started the Dallas Observer, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Dallas, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Dallas with no paywalls.
