Proving once again that Vanessa Minnillo is hotter than Jessica Simpson, and smarter.

According to Page Six:

It’s getting serious between Vanessa Minnillo and Nick Lachey. The former MTV veejay is becoming bicoastal and moving into Lachey’s house in Beverly Hills. We hear she’s trying to become an actress and focus on gigs in L.A. – which could endanger her job as New York correspondent for "Entertainment Tonight." Her rep didn’t return calls. But Minnillo should be warned: Maria Menounous, now on "Access Hollywood," was cut from "ET" after she neglected her duties to play roles in the sitcom "One Tree Hill" and the movie "The Fantastic Four."

Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo enjoyed yesterday together at the NASCAR UAW Daimler-Chrysler 400 held at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. They were guests of driver Jimmie Johnson, who won the race, and then invited the couple to party with him in victory lane.

No word yet on when they are getting married, and having kids.

Vanessa Minnillo is leaving MTV’s "TRL" show, a source says. The former flame of Derek Jeter and current squeeze of Nick Lachey will not renew her contract, which expires in April, we’re told. "MTV wants her out," said another insider. Other sources say continuous rumors of the show’s demise and Minnillo’s other high-wattage opportunities are driving her away from the network. Reps for MTV insist, " ’TRL’ has not been canceled." Should "TRL" live past April, our tipsters peg Susie Castillo as Minnillo’s most likely replacement. Reps for MTV and Minnillo had no comment on her contract.

Minnillo will survive without TRL.

Vanessa Minnillo and Nick Lachey got into a tiff when a Jessica Simpson look-alike tried to slip her number to Lachey Wednesday night at Plumm. Minnillo started yelling, "We have to talk!" before leaving the club in a huff, said a witness. Lachey followed, opening the door of a cab for his miffed gal pal, who ignored him and hopped into another. Meanwhile, the real Jessica dined with her mom at Border Grill inside the Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas.

It doesn’t look like Lachey has much experience with Filipinas like Minnillo. Filipinas have a firey temper, and can be extremely jealous. Yes that’s a stereotype that all of my Filipina and Filipino friends agree with. If the story is true, then Lachey had better move on to another relationship, otherwise he’ll be spending all his time trying to keep Minnillo happy rather than focusing on his career. Minnillo will certainly be focusing on her career, and using Lachey to give it a boost. The great sex isn’t worth the trouble.
