Jessica Simpson’s baby is either a lush or fictitious. I am going with a make-believe lush.

Simpson has been the subject of pregnancy rumors on and off for years. She’s a celeb with lady parts. It comes with the territory. She announced her engagement just days after ex-husband announced he was going to marry Vanessa Manillawhatever. Combine that with her recent weight gain and you have a tabloid story made in burrito bloat turned baby bump heaven.

Jess rode that rumor train for a few days because she is smarter than she looks/acts and finally put an end to the pregnancy stories. She and her fiancé, Eric Johnson, hit up Stanton Social after her Rockefeller tree lighting gig on Tuesday and got their drank on. A spy (aka Papa Joe faking a British accent and heavy breathing to the NY Post) squealed that she gobbled down tequila with her 20+ entourage.

“They were very well-mannered and drank basil lime gimlets, pineapple 75′s, Maker’s on the rocks, margaritas and wine. They ordered a lot of food. Jessica let her guard down enough to steal a few kisses from her fiancé in front of papa Joe. Jessica, Eric and the crew settled on shots of Don Julio to finish out the evening.”

There you have it. No babies for Jessica yet. I am sure when her Rent-A-Center fiancé’s contract is due to be renewed in a few years we will start this mess all over again.
