Bruce Springsteen’s Daughter Named Gucci’s Equestrian Ambassador

New York Magazine ^

Gucci just announced the appointment of Bruce Springsteen's daughter, nationally ranked equestrian Jessica Springsteen, as Gucci Equestrian Ambassador. You've definitely heard of that title before and connected those words before in your brain, because it's a real title and a useful epithet that means a tangible thing in this system of language that humans developed over a period of time on Earth.

Springsteen is an accomplished horsewoman. She also wore Björk-style swan attire to the 2013 Gucci Paris Masters. Gucci's creative director, Frida Giannini, promised in a statement that she has "ensured that the design of this new wardrobe provides [Springsteen] with pieces that manage to be both technically correct and stylish."

This is a brand that just created the title "Equestrian Ambassador" out of whole cloth and princess dreams, and so I trust that "technically correct" is right at the forefront of their priorities.

Give her the benefit of doubt and say it’s an Emily Litella impression.

Of all the thousands of lines written by Springsteen that is probably the single best-known, though apparently not by his Freeper fanboys.

[FroggyTheGremlim]

"This nation's *foremost* champion of the "working stiff" lives in a multi million dollar mansion "

And I hear he's a FARMER!

For tax purposes only.

If you truly weren't be sarcastic, I think you owe me an apology. I was making a joke about one of Bruce Sprinsteen's most famous songs, Born to Run.

Also, you need to invest in a dictionary. The No. 1 definition of tramp as a noun is a vagrant or hobo. That's the definition Springsteen was using in his song.

Maybe you should complain to Springsteen, and he is not a conservative.

[nickcarraway]

You think I am evil too, because I quoted a well-known Bruce Springsteen song.

I had to go back and read my post since it was awhile a go and I have moved on. So I took the time to read my post again and re-familiarize myself with the story. I really was just asking questions. Did you feel offended by my questions? If so I apologize. You normally are not so thin skinned. I will be more careful posting to you.

Shouldn’t Chelsea Clinton be the natural choice?

[NormsRevenge]

Gucci has a consulate? Where, Milan? Next to the Vatican?

Maybe Oprah can enlighten us.

[NormsRevenge]

Ever see her mom? Is it Patti Smith? It’s Year of the Horse, yaknow

[Jane Long]

Patti Scialfa is her mom, I believe. The E Street Band member come wife, of Mr Man of the People.

[miss marmelstein]

Yup! The Man of the People has a row of corn he harvests in July. Only in America, folks, only in America.

[NormsRevenge]

Thanks for that, my mind Fuzzes occasionally! I remembered a Patti.

He’s one of the anointed, like Sting, Bono, Stevie Tyler.. I remember them all fuzzily, come to think of it. :-)

HaPPy Olympics debacle!!

Thirty minutes - Watch your words if your own mind can't handle them once they are said.

Then no accountability while 'it's someone else's sensitivity'.

Liberalism at it's every day level.

[miss marmelstein]

Sam Springsteen is a volunteer fireman, not a professional firefighter. That’s a good thing, of course, but he probably has another profession/job/schooling. Monmouth County only has volunteers. Bruce has been very nice to our poorer neighborhoods here (Asbury Park) and has been paid back by being constantly ripped off financially - the school system “lost” every single damn computer he donated. Only one entity that I know has profited by his generosity - run by a very honest individual.

ROTFLOLOL.
A ridiculously ugly outfit!

[Mr Rogers]

She can actually ride, at least - although I dislike the modern style of riding your horse's neck in a jump! And...

"AMERICAN rock legend Bruce Springsteen's daughter, Jessica, wants to go to Rio and has splashed out millions of dollars on a horse to get her there.

London Olympics gold medallist Peter Charles has revealed on Facebook Jessica Springsteen has bought his showjumping champion Murka's Vindicat.

The price was not revealed but top-class showjumpers have been changing hands for as much as $A7.5 million.

...Charles, 52, sealed Britain's team showjumping gold medal in August riding a faultless final round for the team on the Dutch-bred bay gelding."

It’s a shame Bruce continues to subscribe to the very political malaise (liberalism) that has caused both the poorer neighborhoods and incompetent school system(s).

I threw out my Springsteen CD’s long ago after coming to my senses and learning what that man was really about. I wonder if his children asked him what he did during the war when the less fortunate common folk were dying and shedding their blood in Vietnam.

Reminiscent of the age old biblical question of why do the wicked prosper and the righteous suffer.

[rabidralph]

LOL! Maybe he’s never heard the song.

[xone]

Do you disagree with the statement?

You're being obtuse.
