Jessica Simpson is rocking the cover of Vanity Fair in the June issue, and has a little photo shoot in it to boot. After getting a ton of shizz for her horrible Grandma jeans a couple of months ago which obviously made everyone think she was fat, she's showing off her still sexy figure and talking about her ex-hubby, her relationship with Papa Joe, and more.
On Media Criticism: "That's just something I have had to train myself--literally train myself--to ignore... I mean, the way people make it sound, I should have never been singing in the first place... 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 Reportedly Being a Jinx to Tony Romo and the Cowboys: "That's how the story goes. Can't help it. But we don't let it affect our relationship. If we did, we wouldn't be together, because it happened at the very beginning. Dating the Cowboys quarterback comes with hype, the fans, the bloggers, but I've never dated a guy that was more simple. I'm always there for him after a game, and he knows he has me to come home to."
On Being Compared to Britney and Christina: "My album was different. I released a ballad first. I wasn't dancing and doing that whole thing. I wanted to set myself apart. But I was always third runner-up."
On Ex-Husband Nick Lachey: "I have not spoken to him in years. [As for the show,] 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 Dad and Their Relationship: "I can talk to my dad like he's my manager, and put 'Dad' on the back burner. We've been doing it since I was 13. So, at this point, we're in a good rhythm. A lot of people find it strange, but it's the only way I know. And I don't care to know another way, because it suits me. And we've done a pretty dang good job."
On Faith: "I'm spiritual. I live off the faith that has been instilled in me, that has never left. I've never let a stumbling block actually make me fall.... We all go through trials, but not one thing has ever made me question God. I have a great relationship with God. I can talk to him, get mad at him, frustrated with him. But, ultimately, my faith is what defines me."
