Bruce Springsteen’s Daughter Named Gucci’s Equestrian Ambassador
New York Magazine ^

Posted on 02/05/2014 12:54:21 PM PST by nickcarraway

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.

Why do you call her a tramp? This is 100 percent why the public thinks Republicans and Conservatives are nasty. What on Earth did this young lady do that results in being called a tramp?

since it was awhile a go(sic)

It was 30 minutes what are you, 107?

I really was just asking questions.

Really? This is 100 percent why the public thinks Republicans and Conservatives are nasty.

Doesn't look like a question.

It’s COOL to be a lib or a Democrat. Until it ceases to be cool, no show biz personality will ever back off these pernicious ideas.

I thought it was funny play on the definitive song lyrics of Bruce Springsteen.

I admit to turning up the car stereo whenever Born to Run plays, singing along, with particular emphasis and head bobbing to the "'Cause tramps like us . . ." line.

I know Springsteen is a big leftist and all, but as a person he is aces in my book. My daughter’s best friend had bone cancer in her leg at the age of 10. Without any publicity, Springsteen would regularly visit her in the hospital to cheer her up. The only people who ever knew about it were her family and her friend’s families.

The board is public. Wake up! Your name calling is just more of your liberalism.

I put myself out there with all the information you need to know my beliefs. You provide nothing and you call me the liberal. I think that is all you are….well besides a thread bully. You had no business posting to me. Did I post to you prior???? No I did not. There are times when I give my wisdom to you through a post, but I did not anywhere on that thread.

Please you are better than that. You weren't just asking a question, you said I was, "This is 100 percent why the public thinks Republicans and Conservatives are nasty. What on Earth did this young lady do that results in being called a tramp?" That sounds like a pretty bad insult to me.

But reading your response, I still think you were being facetious. You've never heard Bruce Springsteen songs? Even if you haven't, I would thing you could tell from the context that isn't what I was saying.

So if it was a joke, just come out and say it.

Did you read the whole thing. She is not being mocked her father is. I see no reason why she should be mocked.

I found that post confusing, but I think he was calling me the liberal, not you.

Are I the only one here who got your semi-jocular bon mote? “tramps like us”, it’s obvious you were referring to yourself!

Ugh, are you joking with me? I was not calling the daughter a tramp. I was making a reference to Bruce Springsteen's most famous song, Born to Run. He repeats several times in the song, "tramps like us, baby we were born to run."

And try looking the definition. The first noun definition is the vagrant/hobo one, not, "woman of loose morals." Springsteen was talking about the former.

Jeez, so you’re as humorless as your attackers, you say?

If you read the daily newspapers or listen to radiophonic news, you’ll know that the nation is experiencing a serious shortage of humour, not seen since the witches were burned in... wherever, for which you cannot blame Bush as it predates him. I blame television with its laugh tracks and the placards displayed to the audiences during the tapings of TV talk shows which say ‘LAUGH’.

Sheesh!

Who cares and wants to know about you?? It's what you say in a post and not about info you put out about yourself whatever that is.

besides a thread bully.

More liberal mindset.

You had no business posting to me. Did I post to you prior????

What part of public are you not able to understand? You don't 'get' to pick those who respond to you.

I give my wisdom to you through a post,

YOU gave me wisdom?? LOL!! I shot your posts to pieces during the election - other than that, I don't have anything to do w/you whoever you are. A poster on the world wide web doesn't know what public means, now talks about wisdom. Amazing.

Not you. Not sure why you thought that. I ‘got’ what you wrote....it went over the heads of many here - so they criticize like liberals do.

Thanks for the article, didn’t know this about Bruce’s child and so grown up.
