Much Too Much

Filed under: Jessica Simpson

sept08jessica.jpg

She's taking this whole country thing a bit far, isn't she????

Jessica Simpson is on the cover of the all-important September issue of Elle magazine.

Dressed as a cowgirl!

The failed actress and singer opens up to the mag about her daddy, John Mayer, Asslee, Tony Romo and much too much.

Here's an exclusive excerpt from her interview!

On her life changing incident:
“I was singing ‘9 to 5’ and I choked and forgot the words in front of the president and in front of Dolly Parton, who’s like the president to me. And the last time I sang in front of the president , I had messed up the lyrics to ‘God Bless America’ so its kind of a thing I have with George W. Anyway, I broke down and said I’m sorry in front of the whole audience. My dad was there. I looked him in the face and said, ‘I will never sing again.’ “

On feeling like America’s most wanted:
“So many people want to bring me down, and I can’t wait to prove them wrong. If they believe what they read about me, they automatically persecute and torment me.”

On her father and manager, Joe Simpson, running his daughter’s love life and career:
“That’s Ludicrous. He just wants me to be happy. Our whole family gets beaten, but that just brings us closer. So people are really doing themselves a disservice.”

On her rocky love life:
“I was going through a lot of pain. I didn’t try anything to change my life other than dating different types of guys and conforming to their worlds. I thought I had to be artsier, more intellectual.”

On her relationship with John Mayer:
“John believed in the Jessica Simpson that’s within. He cherished our love. He helped make me t he woman I am today. John is going to be an amazing man for someone, but I know that I was supposed to be with someone else.”

On recording a song about abuse:
“I had to record that. There’s nothing on my album that you’re gonna hear that I don’t relate to or that I haven’t experienced. Because the only way I know how to sing is from life experience. I don’t want to talk about it, but I have definitely experienced abuse in away that I would tell people to take their heart and run.”

On Tony Romo:
“Most of the guys I dated were captivated by my heart but they had different ways of trying to get to me. Tony understands me. He appreciates my talent. He’s the first person I’ve spiritually connected with. I’m a girl that loves to be in love. I love love!”

    The airbrusher at Elle really earned his salary that day! Inches (maybe a foot?) were taken off that body.

    Perez, this looks EXACTLY like Jessica's 2004 cover of Elle. I noticed as soon as i saw it. She is wearing the same shirt, has the same hair, etc. Look it up!

    Nik is right. That is so NOT Jessica's real bosy.

    I am so sick of these magazines (who do a real disservice to women everywhere ) that make their cover models look like either twink boys ( up Perez's ally) or Jessica Rabbit.

    I have nothing against Jessica Simpson but I'm not sure I want to read anything about her "talent". This country churns out crap like Simpson–barely able to hold a note musically but easy on the eyes.

    She does look like she is trying a bit too hard. But she is a Texas girl. I think she deserves a chance to make it with this country look.

    is it really necessary to airbrush her to within an inch of her life? I think she looks bangin without the weirdly tiny waist and thighs

    I think going country it the new fad of failed popstars. Country is going to stand up and say enough losers already.

    “Most of the guys I dated were captivated by my heart but they had different ways of trying to get to me." Bitch, please. And why does she always pose the same in every damn photoshoot of hers.

  32. d-bag says – reply to this
    32

    She really just needs to go away. She sucks as a singer, a dancer and is even worse as an actress. The only thing she had going for her was the ass she grew for "The Dukes of Hazzard". Now she's back to her old pancake-ass. See the video for her duet with Nick Lachey and see how fucking flat it is.

    you have got to be kidding….don't get me wrong I like Dolly Pardon, but to say she looks at her like the president of the US. That's a little corny to me. And I think its a cop out on why she forgot the lyrics to the song

    Jessica hasn't done anything to hurt anyone. Whether you like it or not, the girl has an amazing voice; she can really sing.

    I think she is gorgeous. She's one of the few that will be photographed without make-up.

    noooo she looks so pretty/skinny
    and she is from TEXAS perez so she is allowed, its not like its paris hilton posing as a cowgirl

    I think she looks ridiculous! The belt buckle has me laughing. When I was a teenager, I dated a farmer who had a belt-buckle like that and laughed at him because it was hideous. It's still hideous, and the fact that she has decided to change her appearance to look "country" makes her seem even more fake, and not really into it.

  38. Erica says – reply to this

    Jessica has always worn more western type dress, if you failed to notice, I don't think it should be blamed on her for "trying too hard". You are a poor excuse for "media".

  39. Beth says – reply to this

    The airbrushing looks botched up, too. Her right hip/upper thigh (left side of photo) looks slightly normal, but on the right side of the photo, she looks inverted. In the attempt to make her super-skinny they made her look deformed. Not attractive at all.

    she always poses with her hands on her hips to steady herself so she wont tip over because of her gigantic head and big boobs.

    She's got an incredibly gift but she's one big walking stereotype. From the hair to the skankiness and now this country facade.

    I'm sorry Perez Hilton but before you talk about stupid things do some research. Jessica Simpson is a country girl, she was born and raised in TX, she was claiming to be a Southern country girl when her career first started and she was singing Christian music! Now look at all of the other pop stars that have failed or the singers that are just getting started b/c most of them are going over to doing country music before anything else.

    Yeah, the shirt is similar to the September 2004 Elle cover, but not exact. Plus in 2004, her hair was so blonde it was almost white. But I am surprised they decided to go with almost a copycat cover of the last one…damn, that girl is so over-exposed.

    Re: HOT B – He's talking about the outfit I believe. You don't have to be from the south to sing country (even though she is) but you also don't have to be a big ol' stereotype.

    I don't know about you guys, but I want a pound of flesh from Jessica Simpson. I don't know why, but over the years I really don't like her. Maybe it's because she takes things too seriously and would sell out many things she loves to be on the cover of magazines. What she doesn't understand is that even though she was on a lot of tabloids a few years back, people did not love her. She was fluff, filler. People were never fasinated by her. She takes things to seriously and tries to hard. If she would just come to a point where she just didn't care about her public image or take it too seriously, like Britney Spears or Lindsey Lohan, then people might start liking her. Still, I want a pound of flesh.

    I love Jessica. I actually loathe country music but I think she is great and one of the few people left in the entertainment industry who is just trying to do what they love and be themselves. The rest of you are just jealous idiots (Perez included).

    OMG They must have gotten Mimi's retoucher! How much fat did they take off her body, cause she def has never looked like that!!! And what is with those two necklaces? Ugh! She is so annoying. She needs to shut up, go away, and go to the Cowboys games in the fall so Tony can be distracted again and they can LOSE every game! HAHAHA. Please, Jessica, no one cares about YOU or your lame-ass family anymore!

    she really is sad, her comments about abuse, what's that about.

  58. 58

    I would never save my virginity for my husband,get divorced and start screwing guys I'm dating. There was no purpose of her even saving her virginity. The Bible also speaks against divorce as well. If your going to practice morals for one thing why not do it for your marriage too? I can't stand Jessica Simpson. I always felt sorry for Nick on their reality show. She didn't give a fuck. Her daddy is a chester molester. The abuse is probably from his fondling her kitty.

    She IS a country girl….a conservative Texas girl, preacher's daughter, dating a Cowboy quarterback…..how much more country can you get? Plus she started out in Christian music.

    Perez…. she is from the DFW area! Have you seen the gorgeous Texas girls…. dressed like cowgirls! :) I am not a big fan of hers, but I think she looks ok. Although, I am a mexi-Tex from DFW!!:) so I am a little bit country! Dallas-style! :)

    Wow. She must belong to Mensa. "Dolly Parton is like the President to me." WTF?? Dolly Parton is the leader of the free world?? Dolly Parton is commander-in-chief of our military? Dolly Parton meets world leaders and formulates policy, both nationally and internationally? Jessica, you epitomize the stereotypical "dumb blonde" - S-T-U-P-I-D-!!!!!!!!

    The only time she needs to open her mouth is when she's about to put a cock in it. How any guy could withstand a conversation longer than 5 minutes with her without blowing his brains out is beyond me.

    Perez, Ya know? All you do is slam people that are actually decent people like Jessica and Miley Cyrus. Then you call Slutney a"Pop Princess" Let's see - Jessica and Miley can both actually sing , Slutney can't. Neither of them have purposely flashed their crothes - Slutney has several times. Do you really mean the shit you say or are you just getting posters riled up? Seriously, Miley is just a kid - back off. And Slutney is just a skank. Call each of them what they really are.

    I've always liked her. I think she is real and isn't afraid to make fun of herself. Sure, she has made some mistakes in her past, but who hasn't? I can't imagine living my life in the public eye. I think she looks pretty on the cover, but why did they change her body? She looks better with some curves. Her things are nonexistant. Now every young girl looking at this mag will go throw up their lunch. Airbrushing sucks!

    That's a lovely job of photoshopping on the cover. Are we really expected to believe Jessie has that teeny-tiny waste? Must be the same person who touches up Mimi's photos.
