Yeah,and Jessica dumped her first husband of three weeks for Seinfeld.

Jerry always says that he can’t figure out why people make such a big deal out of it. And now he’s trying to minimize this potential scandal by saying it’s not Watergate. Maybe not, but this is pretty serious stuff. Neither of them seem to care a red cent about morals.

Exactly, Alison. These people don’t see anything wrong in Jessica’s cheating on her husband (before they even had time to unpack from their honeymoon), so how can you expect they’ll feel bad about plagiarizing Lapine’s book (which Seinfeld so obviously did)?

Shame on Oprah, for giving this cheater a place to promote her stolen wares.

THIS IS A HUGE DEAL!

Point #1 - Ms. Lapine showed her book to HarperCollins (Ms. Seinfeld’s publisher) 6 months before Ms. Seinfeld. Ms. Lapine’s publisher had already made Ms. Seinfeld’s publisher change the book cover (which easily resembled Ms. Lapine’s book cover).

Point #2 - Ms. Seinfeld has the same agent from the William Morris Agency as the Harvard sophomore student who recently lost her book contract for copying another’s novel.

Coincidence? You be the judge!

I think if anyone else had written this book it would not be as big a deal. Let’s face it, it’s the fact that another wealthy famous person is making ALOT of money that they obviuosly don’t need and people just hate that!
While you guys are at it why don’t you make a big deal out of all the baking, southern, italian, ect. food cook books that are out there with “similiar recipes”!!!!!!

TWO books which are:

both cookbooks
shown to the same publisher
in the same year
with the same UNIQUE recipes
on the same UNIQUE cooking concept
by authors who live in the same city
with nearly IDENTICAL book covers
both pitched to OPRAH

IS JUST A COINCIDENCE. No way, I smell a rat!

Just like real estate (location, location, location) buisness is handled very much in the “it’s who you know” aspect. Anyone who doesn’t know that is pretty niave. I don’t think we have to worry about Ms. Lapine, her book has been doing very well all on it’s own….even without having a famous husband. Besides, with all of this publicity her book is doing even better so I guess they are both making money off the Seinfeld name!! Do you think she is going to give back the money she makes from all of this?????………..I think not.

It’s true, Barbara. Missy’s book has gained some benefit from the publicity surrounding the plagiarism case. But that doesn’t make Lapine less of a victim here. Her book was plagiarized–and she was called a “wacko” by Seinfeld on national television. Both Jerry and Jessica Seinfeld are disgusting.

Jessica Seinfeld is repulsive. I read today’s New York Times article on her, and it practically made me gag. She has a new version of her split from Eric Nederlander, which makes her look good (or would, if anyone were dumb enough to buy it). The problem is that it contradicts the statements she made at the time (and those of her husband’s), but Jessica explains that she was lying in the past. Now she’s telling the truth. Really.

I read the article too, but it made me laugh out loud! Not since Alberto Gonzales perjured himself have I seen a person who’s so clearly lying—and doing it very badly. If Jessica Sklar Nederlander Seinfeld thought the article was going to clear her name, she ought to think again.

The main problem with Jessica (other than her total lack of morals) is that for someone who lies as frequently as she does, she is really bad at it. She ought to keep her mouth shut — in time, maybe people will forget she’s a cheater and a plagiarist. At least until she comes out with her next book, “The Happiness of Cooking.”

JESSICA SEINFELD IS NEW YORK’S NEW
LEONA HEMSLEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We needed a new villain with no morals, and here she is — an evil, lying, greedy THIEF! (also extremely forgettable looking! AVERAGE! maybe less than average!) POOR, POOR JERRY! STUCK WITH THAT BEAST!

Sorry spelled HELMSLEY

Jessica Seinfeld sounds borderline — does she have low IQ …? Watching her on Oprah was like watching the film “Being there.” As if that celebutard could write a book! ha! It is word for word from the Sneaky Chef — NO WAY is it a coincidence that people come up with identical cooking concepts (pureering veggies to hide in kids foods) with the SAME crazy combos such as AVAOCADO IN CHOCOLATE PUDDING AND BEETS IN CHOCOLATE CAKE! Her “people” who were ASSIGNED TO FIND HER A PROJECT TO PUT HER NAME ON — came up with this manuscript at Harper Collins. That is who published Jessica’s book. That is also who REJECTED THE SNEAKY CHEF’s manuscript a few months earlier. SO, they took it, put the Seinfeld name on it, and told Jessica to pretend that she can cook! She was not at all convincing, not even for a minute. (By the way, Jessica and her evil advisors did not know that after the Sneaky Chef was rejected at harper collins, she got an agent and was published elsewhere BEFORE JESSICA’s fraudulent book came out. Can you say BUSTED?!!!!!

I expected better–not from Nina/Jessica Seinfeld, who (as everyone in New York knows) is a whore, but from Oprah. She should have invited Missy to her show, instead of the plagiarist. Of course, the plagiarist is married to the megalomaniac who had Oprah in his Bee Movie, so ethics be damned. The whole thing is disgusting.

Ugh. Jessica Seinfeld is such a whore.

The plagiarizing whore has been sued by Missy Lapine! Way to go, Missy. Here’s to hoping you get a ton of money from the Seinfelds.

Ohmigosh! You guys are such morons!

Ideas some from EVERYWHERE. And no where in the article does it say WHEN Jesica Seinfeld landed her deal for the book. It could have been before Missy even pitched her book to Harper Collins.

Just because Seinfeld’s book came out six months AFTER Missy’s DOES NOT MEAN the idea was stolen.

Missy’s just pissed that a book (written by someone who had more power for publicity behind them) that came out after hers stole some of her “thunder.”

Parents have been doing what Missy’s been doing for AGES. Her idea isn’t as original as she claims. She’s just after the money. What a whiney cry-baby.

Actually, Harper Collins signed Jessica Seinfeld in June 2006 — several months after Lapine had submitted her proposal to them (twice).

Of course the idea of sneaking vegetables is not new. But that’s not the basis for the lawsuit. So instead of insulting people, maybe you should try to get your facts straight.

Not only do both books have the same concept, but the same recipes (including very unusual combinations such as spinach in brownies and avocado in chocolate pudding), and some of the same text. Add the fact that Jessica Seinfeld had a proven way of getting her hands on the Lapine manuscript and that her agent has, shall we say, a less than sterling reputation, and you have a pretty strong plagiarism case (and don’t even get me started on the defamation case, which is even more obvious).

Of course Lapine is after money: they money that Jessica owes her for stealing her book. And she’s going to get it. Good for her.

Oh, Nina/Jessica. We’ve known for such a long time that you’re a thief, a liar, and a whore. You can’t imagine how pleasant it is to see the rest of the world is also finding out.

Once a whore, always a whore. Right, Nina?

Ugh. Jessica Seinfeld is scum. I hope Lapine takes her to the cleaners.

The Seinfelds are such ugly people, inside and out.

Oh, I hope the case makes it to court. I’d love to see the Seinfeld whore perjuring perjury.

Sorry, I meant committing perjury.

I feel sorry for your children, Jess. They’re going to grow up knowing their mother is a whore.

And now their “defense” is that Seinfeld was “joking.” Ha, ha, plagiarism is so funny. Like cheating on your husband of three weeks. Hilarious!
