August 20, 2008 Jessica Simpson Peddles Beer!

Jessica Simpson’s latest endorsement deal is with Stampede, a Dallas beer company. Jessica will be promoting their light beer and will own a 15% share of the company.

Ms. Simpson will serve as a spokeswoman and appear in ads in stores for Stampede Light Plus, which is made by Dallas’ Stampede Brewing Co. But she won’t be just another pretty face: Ms. Simpson is taking a 15 percent stake in the brewer. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed. “She’s the face of the brand now,” said Lawrence Schwartz, Stampede’s president and chief executive, who says sales have more than doubled in the past year. Stampede’s marketing is focused on its vitamin content, which it describes as “functional additives.”

“As an entrepreneur, I am always looking for ways to diversify my portfolio with good ideas and good people,” Ms. Simpson said in a statement. “Yes, I work out and take care of myself, but I also like a cold beer once in a while.” Dallas News
