Jessica Simpson Vanity Fair, June 2009
Tuesday, May 5, 2009Jessica Simpson is the cover girl for the June 2009 issue of Vanity Fair and she is saying ‘You call this fat?’
Check out some highlights below from her interview.
On whether Newlyweds caused the end of her marriage to Nick Lachey:
“In all honesty, I believe it did not affect our marriage, Because we enjoyed watching those episodes, and that will always be a time I cherish. It made me understand what marriage is, what love is, what commitment is.”
On her relationship with Nick now:
“I have not spoken to him in years.”
On if her new man Tony Romo has ever watched an episode of Newlyweds:
“A couple episodes. He thought I was cute.”
On her weight being all over the tabloids:
“It comes with what I do and I know that every day the media’s going to challenge me, is going to want to bring me down. But I feel like I’m at such a place that I own myself, and it’s authentic. I own that authentic part of myself, and none of those words are harsh enough to make me believe them. I can’t imagine saying some of the things people have said about me about anybody else.”
On media criticism:
“When it comes to media criticism, that’s just something I have had to train myself—literally train myself—to ignore. Because I’m the one up there onstage, and I can feel the energy of the crowd. And I know when I did good. And I know when I did great. And there wasn’t one time on this tour when I felt like I butchered it. I mean, the way people make it sound, I should have never been singing in the first place.”
The June issue hits stands in New York and Los Angeles on Wednesday and nationwide, May 12.
