We had no idea that Bruce Springsteen's 20-year-old daughter, Jessica, was an accomplished equestrian … until now! The brunette beauty competed in the Gucci Paris Masters 2012 in Paris over the weekend ... Jessica, who competed in the Style and Competition for Amade, came in 6th place...

Do you think Springsteen will write a song about this?
Flew my daughter and her horse to Paris for the Gucci Paris Masters.
Meanwhile people are homeless in Long Island and the Jersey Shore is destroyed.
Hope Obama taxes people to fix it.
Born in the USA.
I'm a blue collar guy at a horse jumping contest in France.
*Someone make sure Drudge gets this on the Front Page!
I remember Obama crowd making a big stink about Ann Romney’s equestrian exploits.
“Remember all the heat Romney’s wife took for owning a horse.”
WHY? Jackie Kennedy practically grew up on a horse, and the public adored her! My guess is that the Communists had not yet trained Americans to be greedy and envious....
He’s the worst form of hypocrites. A phony too, all those “cool guy” looks he gives the camera in his videos. Off-key voice too.
How does one spell “overrated”?
All I know is he is a horses ass.
Got a kid on a horse in Baltimore, Jack. She went for a ride and she never came back.
I can’t wait till Obama starts taxing these rich 1 %ers.
Whatever happened to that 75% tax from Hollande?
If she wins top prize, how much does she lose?
Lear jet liberal.
But it’s okay for Michael Bloomberg’s daughter Georgina to be a top-level equestrian competitor, too. They’re liberal, so no problem.
Not their faults that their fathers are d-bags.
Don't worry, liberal hypocrites like him always get some kind of exemption written into the law that’ll get him out of most of the pain.
Like always - and I mean always - it's Joe and Jane Average that will ultimately get stuck with the bill.
He is supposed to be the Rocker of the blue collar people.
I’m a horsewoman myself, as you can probably guess from my username. I don’t begrudge either of the young ladies their success—they’re actually very good and work extremely hard. It’s not easier for them because they’re rich, since show jumping is a sport in which all of the competitors are either rich, or are sponsored by very rich people or nations or corporations. It hurts just as badly to hit the ground when you’re rich as when you’re poor. Rich, poor, or in between, you sweat just as much when you’re riding, and you get just as exhausted, and have to control your mind, body, and emotions just as much.
My point, however, is that the press carries fawning articles about Misses Bloomberg and Springsteen, while they condemn Mrs. Romney for pursuing a sport she got into as a form of therapy, and for contributing millions of dollars to the US effort to win a medal in dressage.
The dems throw anything, and if it doesn't stick, they shrug it off, and throw something else. If it sticks, they expand on it.
Then there were even some conservatives that got on that bandwagon and poo pooed Mrs Romney for exhibiting richness. lol
I believe I heard a radio report a few weeks ago, that Springsteen paid 7 Million dollars for the horse. Can anyone confirm that?
