Posted by Rachel at 8/14/2005 | Comments (3)Hi guys! Here’s some quotes from Jess’ interview in OK! magazine about her future plans:
“If I got pregnant, I’d be ecstatic, but we’re not trying. We’re definitely practising though! There’s still so much stuff that we want to do together. We’d still like to do some mission work, visit Third World countries - I have this whole plan to save the world. I’ve been visiting orphanages with my parents since I was a little girl. That has taught me so much about friendship and family. I definitely want to adopt. I don’t know if we’ll do it first or after, but we will.”
Here’s some quotes about when she met Angelina Jolie recently:
“Angelina is one of my biggest role models. I got to interview her recently. I didn’t know her at all, but just sitting in front of her, I felt this incredible peace. She was breathtaking. I couldn’t help but stare, but it’s her inner beauty that you really feel. She’s had her struggles and she’s been open and honest and I love that about her.”

I just made a new header for the site.. let me know what you think of it 
Posted by Rachel at 8/13/2005 | Comments (8)Jessica Simpson is coming out with a new line of plus-size jeans which will be made in sizes 12 to 24 and be available in Avenue stores. Joe Simpson said “We have people 300 pounds or 90 pounds come up to Jessica and say, ‘I’m just like you’ … It’s not about the outside. It’s what’s inside.”
Um, ok then Joe… kinda weird statement to say, if you ask me.
Posted by Rachel at | Comments OffApparently Joe Simpson has made a deal with OK! magazine for Jessica Simpson - for $200,000! She is on their inaugural US issue but the deal also is apparently for a package deal - she’ll appear on six more covers and host the magazine’s September 20th launch party. The party’s going to be held on the roof of Cornelia Day Spa on Fifth Avenue.
“The deal also precludes Jessica from giving any other magazines major features until all the covers are done, which will be in like two years. So basically, Joe sold his daughter out for $200,000,” the insider said. Another source said Jessica may be getting a $100,000 bonus for the party appearance.

As always in the Uk as soon as a celebrity begins to get more famous and a growing fan club, the UK newspapers have to rip them apart. see article below from Sunday 7th August 2005 tabloid newpaper:
Dukes star Jessica denies a boob job
THE long blonde hair looks familar… but that’s just about the only thing.
In six years Dukes of Hazzard star Jessica Simpson has transformed herself from a dowdy church minster’s daughter from Texas into an international sex symbol.
But just how Hazz she managed it?
Jessica made her name at 18 as a virgin bride in MTV’s reality TV show The Newlyweds with her husband, boyband singer Nick Lachey. In her new role as Daisy Duke in a film based on the 70s TV series she’s, well…a lot more grown up.
Jessica, now 25, says her sexy new look isn’t down to the surgeon’s knife but hard work. She says: “I trained six days a week, two hours a day. I feel confident about my body, although I’m shy.”
As for her amazing 34D breasts, Jessica says: “Mine are definitely real. At school, my boobs were bigger than all my friends and I was afraid to show them. Now, I feel they make my outfits look better. They’re like an accessory.”
AND WHAT THE EXPERT SAYS..
TOP Harley Street surgeon Mr Jeya Prakash is convinced Jessica has had plastic surgery:
NOSE: In 1999 her nose looked broader, now it’s finer - achieved by rhinoplasty?
SMILE: She now smiles with none of her upper gums showing - the upper lip can be relaxed using Botox or enlarged using fillers.
EYES: They appear to have changed from oriental to perfect almonds. This could be done with a brow lift.
TEETH: Now a perfect, even smile. Teeth can be whitened and evened with veneers.
CHIN: It used to look longer. Muscles can be tightened to achieve this effect.
Posted by Rachel at 8/11/2005 | Comments (17)You looked like you had fun playing up the sex appeal of this character. Is there a line you won’t cross?
Oh, there’s a lot of lines I won’t cross. I did have fun playing up the sex appeal of Daisy Duke because she’s a woman, she’s a smart woman and she definitely knows how to use her body! [giggles]
Did you learn anything from her?
I took a lot away from the set. I took a lot from Baton Rouge and just being in the Daisy Duke shorts.
How would you say she’s smart?
Um, she was the brains behind getting everybody out of trouble all the time. She would always undo everything that was all wound up.
What was it in your audition that impressed the directors?
My first audition I was very shy. I was really shy. I didn’t nail my first audition. I had to come back. They wanted to screen-test me anyway because it was already in the press that I had the role! That put pressure on me already, it was something that I wanted really bad, but I should have never said it to the press – I should never have said that I wanted the role. But actually, doing that, it – I told myself that you have to get this. When you walk in to do that screen-test, you have to walk in as Daisy Duke. So I went and worked one time with acting coach Larry Moss. He was basically saying, Just do what you’re doing. I was confident – y’know, he has trained a lot of amazing women like Hillary Swank for Million Dollar Baby. I was like, all right! I’m gonna go out there and do what I was doing. And just do what I would do.

Posted by Rachel at 8/8/2005 | Comments (4)This movie reviewer gave the movie 1 star.
The movie treatment of the aw-shucks television series “The Dukes of Hazzard” tries hard to be racist, sexist and homophobic. The film even throws in a bit of animal cruelty, but nobody is offended, threatened or laughing.
Jessica Simpson looks lost on the set. (You can practically hear the director off-screen giving her point-by-point instructions on every scene: “OK, just bend over a little more. Look at the camera. Smile. Perfect.”)
