And today it's back to July 9, 2005 and Jake at Jessica Simpson's 25th birthday party.
A big bash at the birthday girl's parent's home in Encino, Jake joined Jess' then husband, Nick Lachey, her sister and then husband Pete Wentz, Eva Mendes, Mandy Moore, Topher Grace and Joaquin Phoenix and 150 other people wishing her a Happy Birthday.It does seem a bit random for Jake to be there. Maybe he just can't say no to a charming Texan?
And who knows maybe his own Lonestar was part of the Texas contingent representing that night.*And it looks like the MTV awards wasn't the first time Jake posed with Eva.
And that Lonestar?
Well fast forward a few years, and Jake's party connections connect again.
First with a punch
and then with a pumpkin.
*Wonder if that's how Papa Joe got the idea for a story about a single Jess secretly dating dating almost two years to the date from this party.
