Music Exec Apparently Doesn't "Do Funerals" Or Relationships

No doubt Tony Romo was braced to get bitch-slapped on the cover of People after dumping Jessica Simpson right before her 29th birthday after almost two years of dating.

Harsh.

But how do you gift wrap tears, cursing and empty pints of Ben & Jerry's anyway?

Thanks to Jermaine Dupri, he's off the hook as the Douche With the Worst Timing in the World For a Break Up.

Less than a month after the death of her brother, Janet Jackson is splitting from her music executive boyfriend of seven years. Frankly, given the HUGE aesthetic imbalance between the two we're surprised it lasted so long.

"His friends are telling people it’s over,” says a source. “They have been moving in different directions for a while.”

According sources, Janet and Jermaine had been drifting apart well before Michael Jackson's death. As the world watched, Dupri was noticeably not by Janet's side at the memorial for Michael, an early sign to the outside world that all might not be well with the couple.

A friend of Dupri's told the mag that he "doesn't attend funerals." Bro, the memorial for a worldwide superstar who happens to be your girlfriend's big bro is pretty much the exact OPPOSITE a routine funeral.

But after Jermaine got inked with Janet's name, it was really just a matter of time before the predictable E! True Hollywood Story ending.

Upon learning of the split, big sis LaToya claimed she never trusted the shifty-eyed little Troll, even going so far as to suspect him of being part of the "shadowy entourage" involved in Michael's MURDER. She has vowed that she he won't rest until justice is done. And another big fat check for the exclusive interview clears.

Man, if anyone deserves to scarf a vat of frosting straight out of the tube it's Miss Damita Jo.  She just buried her brother, she's embroiled in a custody battle for his kids with her parents, MJ's ex wife Debbie Rowe and Diana Ross for heaven's sake, marriage number 3 isn’t happening, and her last two albums tanked.

You know,  this kind of puts it all into perspective the next time you start whining to Glamour that you're "so wonley," doesn't it, Jess?
