Jessica Simpson showed off her slight fuller & healthier looking figure over the weekend — and now her critics have made a mountain out of a mole hill!
At this past Sunday’s Kiss Country Chili Cook Off in Pembroke Pines Florida, the 28-year-old singer and part time actress dressed in high-waisted jeans and a double belt, shocked people with her new paded bod. A lot of websites out there are poking fun at her, calling her fat and overweight now. Fat??? True, she looks like she may have gained a few pounds. But this is more of a case of bad fashion statement as she made The Dame’s Fashion Disaster list (Click Here to See That Story) Simpson has always had a curvy figure, but her fashion choice this weekend was horrible. A couple of people have since come to her defense, including her younger sister Ashlee Simpson.
“I am completely disgusted by the headlines concerning my sister’s weight. A week after the inauguration and with such a feeling of hope in the air for our country, I find it completely embarrassing and belittling to all women to read about a woman’s weight or figure as a headline on Fox News.
All women come in different shapes, sizes, and forms and just because you’re a celebrity, there shouldn’t be a different standard.”
Is this something you would say to your wife, daughter, mother, grandmother, or even a friend?
I seriously doubt it.
How can we expect teenage girls to love and respect themselves in an environment where we criticize a size 2 figure?
Now can we focus on the things that really matter.

So Jessica is a size two and they’re attacking her weight? Wow -What a “glamorous” message to be sending to all the pre-teen girls who idolizes her. Hollywood trainer and author of “The 5 Factor Diet” Harley Pasternak has also come to the defense of Miss Simpson, defending her. Her former trainer tells “Extra” that the singer is now Healthy. Pasternak worked with Simpson during the filming of “Major Movie Star” in 2007.

“She has curves where a woman needs to have curves. We all go a little bit up and a little bit down. But she’s healthy. She’s still sexy. She’s still a beautiful woman. And I have no problem with the way she looks.” He adds, “I think if more people looked the way she looks now, the country would be a lot healthier.” Says Pasternak. “I think Jessica has a really healthy perspective on her healthy body image and looks like a woman. I would take her body any day over somebody who’s emaciated and looks unhealthy.”
Personally, weight-wise she looks fantastic and is a very beautiful person. Fashion-wise it was not one of her better choices. Jessica usually is dressed very stylishly in clothes that flatter her body. Maybe it was just an off day for her? It takes a very specific type of woman to pull off those high-waisted jeans, and Miss Simpson surely is no Victoria Beckham. Stick to the low-waisted jeans, honey.

Oh my god, a woman with a grown womans lovely figure (instead of the figure of a ten year old boy like some female celebs)! We must kill her. (sarcasm) She is more beautiful than ever and shows what really happens when you are a woman, weight can go up and down a little bit, it´s perfectly normal. She looks like Marilyn Monroe in Misfits!
