Jessica’s New Packaging
Posted by Kate Alvarez as Jessica Simpson at 12:00 PM UTC on Apr, 08 2010
You gotta hand it to Joe Simpson. He’s mastered the art of celebrity branding. Look at how he’s managed to package his children’s careers throughout the years.
First, Jessica Simpson was the ditzy but lovable blonde—with her classic moments in MTV’s hit reality show Newlyweds, her typecast roles in Dukes of Hazzard and Blonde Ambition, and her picture-perfect pop singing career.
Second, there was little sister Ashlee. She had to come off completely different from Jessica, so she went brunette and channeled her inner angst for a pop/rock career.
Soon Jessica’s marriage and bubblegum strategy plummeted. Post-Nick Lachey and post-Dukes, her image was plagued with relationship problems, weight issues, and career staleness. It was time for a revamp and Joe Simpson found the perfect marketing plan.
Instead of going down the Britney Spears route, it was time to present the public with a more positive image of Jessica. Hence, Jessica Simpson: The Beauty Ambassador was born.
The 29-year-old launched a new VH1 reality show called The Price of Beauty, where she travels around the world with her best friend CaCee Cobb and hairstylist Ken Paves to discover beauty customs and women’s cultures in other countries.
She also launched Operation Smile, an initiative that empowers women to appreciate their own beauty. The project will “develop tips and interactive tools that will help young people take this newfound inner strength and share what they’ve learned to empower others to do the same.”
Jessica is taking this new role seriously—that of an empowered and transparent woman who inspires other women to embrace themselves for who they really are. How Oprah. How Marie Claire.
Speaking of Marie Claire magazine, Jessica is featured on their May issue, and it isn’t your usual glam cover. Jessica bares it all with no makeup and no Photoshop retouching. Although this whole au naturale photo shoot is no longer a new concept, I admire Jessica for doing it. It takes good self-esteem for celebrities to show how they really look—wrinkles, age spots, and all—to the public.
“I don’t have anything to prove anymore. What other people think of me is not my business,” she told Marie Claire.
After a few failed attempts to revamp her career, I believe Jessica’s new packaging will actually work. Good job, Joe!
Jessica’s Back On Reality TV
Posted by Kate Alvarez as Jessica Simpson at 9:00 AM UTC on Mar, 17 2010
The last time we saw her on reality TV was when she was still married to Nick Lachey on The Newlyweds. Who could forget her “I don’t eat buffalo” and “Is this chicken or tuna” quips?
Five years and X number of ex-boyfriends later, the 29-year-old singer/actress is back for a solo project: The Price of Beauty.
The reality TV show debuted last Monday on VH1 and is produced by RDF USA (Wife Swap, Secret Millionaire). The more mature Jessica Simpson—after spending a year being ridiculed in tabloids for her weight—is eager to discover beauty customs in other countries.
In the premiere, she and her best friend CaCee Cobb and hairstylist Ken Paves visited Thailand, where they met the Karen tribe and a woman who destroyed her skin with bleaching. The next episodes will take them to other countries such as Japan, Brazil, and India, where they will meet everyday women and examine their views, traditions, and practices on beauty.
And yes, you will still hear her trademark quips and blonde moments. During the Thai massage, Jessica remarked: “I hope I don’t pass gas.”
If you didn’t catch the first episode, view it here and tell me what you think of the show.
Jessica Simpson: 50,000 Shoes For Haiti
Posted by Kate Alvarez as Good Cause, Jessica Simpson at 12:00 PM UTC on Jan, 29 2010
Celebrities have really been stepping up to help Haiti earthquake victims. We’ve heard of telephone marathons, fundraisers, and even musical collaborations. Now it’s Jessica Simpson’s turn.
The 29-year-old popstar is trying to get people to donate 50,000 pairs of shoes in 50 days for the survivors of the Haiti earthquake. The drive is in collaboration with her hairstylist Ken Paves, her best friend and personal assistant Cacee Cobb, and Nashville foundation Soles4Souls.
Jessica recently tweeted:

She also posted a link to her fund drive’s official website, 50000shoes.com where supporters can check out how the can help out. “As little as $5 (that’s the price of a venti frap, by the way) provides two pairs of shoes,” the website said.

She says that she’s always been worried about her body. Even at age 12, her “tummy hanging over her underwear” worried her, and she worries about that to this day. I say give her a break. She’s not skinny slim but she still looks better than the average person, doesn’t she?

Jessica Simpson Covers Up
Posted by Gina as Celebrific Sighting Pictures, Jessica Simpson at 11:27 PM UTC on Apr, 03 2009
I really can’t blame her. Even though she is NOT fat, her recent encounter with critics over her new found curves would be enough reason not to expose more flesh than necessary. At least she looked like she was enjoying herself in Mexico.

Posted by Rachel as Jessica Simpson, Rumors & Whispers at 2:29 PM UTC on Mar, 11 2008
Jessica Simpson is in Kuwait to help boost the morale of U.S. troops, though some reports are slamming her for bringing an entourage of celebrity hairstylist and numerous assistance, and flying by private jet, too. Her rep denies these rumors. “She flew commercially, she is staying in the barracks,” Berger tells PEOPLE. “She’s been with the troops all day. She’s had her meals with them.” Plus, though Jessica’s brought a makeup artist and hair stylist, “She’s not with Ken Paves. She has significantly scaled back her entourage.”

Jessica Quells Pretty Woman Rumors
Posted by Rachel as Career Moves, Jessica Simpson at 2:45 AM UTC on Dec, 22 2007

Jessica Simpson finds new romance
Posted by Rachel as Britney Spears, Jessica Simpson, Rumors & Whispers at 10:33 AM UTC on Dec, 03 2007
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo scores again. He and Jessica Simpson were seen flirting at her best friend’s birthday bash at Teddy’s, a popular Hollywood nightclub.
Jessica tried to play coy, at first (or as coy as she could be in a tight black dress and stilettos). But from friendly conversation they progressed to linking arms — and then locking lips. Yes, touchdown for Tony! He leaned in for a kiss right there in the middle of the crowd.
Well at least it wasn’t a first date. Romo and Jessica had Thanksgiving together. But the man is getting a rep for liking pop princesses, having been linked to Carrie Underwood and Britney Spears.
Jessica blames Dad for bad career?
Posted by Rachel as Jessica Simpson at 9:06 AM UTC on Nov, 21 2007
Jessica may be ready to fire her dad, Joe Simpson — thank God. He’s a lousy manager, and stupid decisions have derailed what should’ve been a really strong career. “After The Dukes of Hazzard movie, Joe was telling everyone that Jess was the next Julia Roberts,” said one insider. “The public bought it for a while, but the studios never believed it. Now there isn’t much work for Jessica.â€
In fact, most of the acting work that Jessica gets is for small self-funded films with pretty abysmal salaries. Time to dust off that Rolodex, girl, and look for a manager who actually knows what he’s doing.
