Jessica Simpson is the cover girl for the new issue of New York Magazine. Thankfully, the piece isn?t all about her upcoming wedding, or her weight, or her Football K-Fed, or whatever else Farty usually ends up talking about. Instead, the focus is on Jessica?s success as the head of one of the most profitable fashion lines in America. The article states something odd: ?Jessica Simpson?s fashion empire? clocked sales around $750 million last year. This year, Simpson, who is 30, will add both a full ready-to-wear collection as well as a ?career separates? line to her docket, which should push sales past the billion-dollar mark. And Simpson?or Simpson?s top surrogate, her mother?will sit in a room just like this to approve every single thing that gets her label inside. To put that figure in context, it means Jessica Simpson is doing roughly the same volume in sales as Michael Kors.? Jessica = Michael Kors. Astonishing. The full NY Mag piece is worth a read, but here are some of the quotes from the piece:
Jessica on her line: ?I never thought I?d be some fashion mogul!, ?she says, laughing her big, open-mouthed laugh. The unlikeliness of it all is probably the exact reason why it works so well.
Jessica?s business philosophy involves McDonalds: As her business manager, David Levin, explains, the original idea behind Simpson?s fashion brands was this: ?A girl could go to the shopping mall with her mother and she?d have a great new outfit and still have some money left for lunch at McDonald?s. She can look like Jessica Simpson, smell like Jessica Simpson, and she can afford it.?
Jessica on the 2009 high-waisted jeans/weight gain incident at a chili cook-off: ?I still thought I looked cute,? she says. ?I wouldn?t have gone onstage if I didn?t.?
On trends versus basics: ?I put everything in the line and then it just blows out,? she says. ?We try not to set trends, but you need your trending pieces in every delivery. But those go fast: What you really need is your basics for every type of person. When it comes to other celebrity brands, I think a lot of people do a great job, but it can?t be all about them. Everybody doesn?t want to just look like the celebrity, because they can?t. They just want one element of that style.?
Jessica?s Me-Maw wears jeggings: ?I can fill all different kinds of genres in fashion, music, TV, film, personality,? she says. ?I just relate to all of it. So we reach out to all ages. Like just the other day my nana asked for a pair of jeggings because we sent her a pair of boots that went up to her knee, and she was like, ?For this I think I need a pair of jeggings.???
On meeting Eric: ?Was it love at first sight?? asks Simpson. ?No. I don?t know if I believe in that. But it was definitely I could love this man. And maybe I already do.?
On the engagement and proposal: ?It was a complete shock,? she says, ?a beautiful shock. It felt great for somebody to be on his knee, and I had to sit on that knee because I was so excited and overwhelmed I couldn?t even stand. Knowing that I had his knee to sit on in that moment was very magical. The way I always wanted it to be. I think I have a lot of stuff to write now. Not that I?m using him as a muse, but it makes me feel very open to share.?
Oh, Jessica: Johnson is inspiring Simpson, in a New Age?y sort of way. Together they follow the ?Artist?s Way? practice of writing down their thoughts free form for an hour each morning. ?I just let it flow,? she says. ?My fianc taught me that. He?ll get up in the morning and just write, so nothing blocks his emotional life. It doesn?t even have to be in sentence form; he just gets everything out, and that way he can function without getting in the way of himself, without being aggressive or judgmental. We do that together. Sometimes he takes that hour just reading, we?ll get out of bed and just read aloud to each other. He has so many books. Like, just books and books and books and books.?

I was applauding her up until she started in with the Eric stuff. Goodness, she?s dumb as a box of hair? specifically when it comes to men. I have to admit, Jessica might have some business acumen, and obviously, she deserves some of the credit for her success in fashion. But on a personal level, about men and about relationships? I just want to sit her down and pat her head and say ?No, Farty, you?re doing it wrong.?

Enjoying a relaxing afternoon, Jessica Simpson and Eric Johnson were spotted out to lunch in Brentwood, California yesterday (February 13).
The ?Come On Over? songstress looked cute and casual in a flannel shirt, grey top, and denim shorts as she walked out of R+D Kitchen.
In career news, Jessica?s fashion line is projected to earn $1 billion in sales this year, putting her at the top of the celebrity design list.
Perhaps Ms. Simpson can kick in some cash to help her sister Ashlee pay for her divorce from Pete Wentz.

Here’s a story I’m hoping is made up. The National Enquirer is reporting that Jessica Simpson’s fiance is telling her that she needs to lose weight or he’s breaking up with her. That’s really harsh, and considering how impressionable and willing to please she is, if this happened I bet it was more of a suggestion than an ultimatum. Here’s the Enquirer’s report, which seems based on known details about Jessica’s diet and weight.
“Diet or we’re done!” Jessica Simpson’s expanding waistline prompted an ugly ultimatum like that from her fiance Eric Johnson - and pals say the blonde beauty is heartsick over vicious weight-

It looks like Jessica Simpson may have had a few too many the other night. I’m not talking about chilly cheese dogs either, I mean a few too many adult beverages. Don’t get me wrong, I like my women liquored up, but I need them to at least be able to make it to the

Looking a bit rough, Jessica Simpson was spotted stumbling around West Hollywood last night (January 24).
The ?Come On Over? babe required the aid of her fiance Eric Johnson as she exited Katsuya restaurant after what appeared to be a few too many cocktails.

Jessica Simpson?s Twitter-gushing about Eric Johnson is nothing new. It seems like once a month, Jessica tweets a photo of Eric with some kind of dumbass comment about how happy she is to be with a ?Yalie? K-Fed or to simply declare that she ?has a major crush? on him. Now Jessica has gotten on Twitter to thank her Lord (Lord Nachos, Bourbon Christ, Jesus H. Oreo) for Eric?s sweet ass. Literally, she?s thanking God for Eric?s ?tush?. Girl, get it together. We know you?re happy and we?re happy for you too. But enough. He?s a K-Fed and he?s going to divorce you and take your money and it?s going to be a mess. Enough with the cyber-gushing.
Eric Johnson is in Jessica Simpson’s bedtime prayers ? or at least part of him.
“Thank you Lord for blessing me with a Man that has the perfect Tush,” Simpson Tweeted on Saturday night. “Laying my hands upon it with peace :)”
Simpson, 30, has been gushing on Twitter about her fianc since they met last spring, posting a picture of a steamy kiss they shared in August, saying, ?YUM!? and later calling him a stud.
It’s the not the first time the Push Your Tush singer has rhapsodized about a man’s backside. Even after breaking up with NFL quarterback Tony Romo, she said, “I still look at his cute butt in the outfit ? uniform.”

Do you like how she capitalized ?Tush?? Like it?s a formal noun. Like God. Or Dong. She really is praising it. She should start a church for Golddigging K-Feds with cute butts. Natalie Portman?s fianc could join!

| | OK! Mag: Eric Johnson's K-Fed-ness embarrasses Jessica Simpson | | Added 13 years ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

OK! Magazine has an absolutely hilarious story in this week?s print edition. It?s all about how Jessica Simpson is embarrassed by Eric Johnson! Not the other way around - Farty McCorndog isn?t embarrassing Eric, HE is embarrassing HER. Because he?s like K-Fed. Or the ?ballet K-Fed?. Eric needs a catch-phrase too? ?the football K-Fed?. Something like that. Anyway, apparently Jessica is coming to the slow realization (her only kind of realization) that Eric is jobless and that she pays for everything, and that if they get married, it will probably only get worse. What?s especially funny is the story about how Eric got all judgy about Jessica wanting to buy a $4000 Fendi bag. It?s her money, bitch. She can spend it how she wants!
If Eric Johnson is going to marry Jessica Simpson, he?d better learn the importance of an ?It? bag. The couple went shopping in the Fendi store in Aspen over New year?s, and a fellow shopper spotted them looking at several $4,000 bags.
?Her fianc made a comment that he didn?t get what made the bag so expensive - it was just a name - and why did she need it?? the eyewitness says. ?Jess rolled her eyes and gave him a dirty look. She tried to laugh it off in front of the salesperson, but you could tell she was mortified.?
It wasn?t the first time Eric embarrassed her. In fact, Eric got so drunk at one of Aspen?s trendiest restaurants, he literally fell to the street as he stumbled out. And even after that, much to Jessica?s chagrin, Eric went on to drink at another restaurant.
And while the couple seems to be in love, his lack of sophistication, style and funds seems to put up a barrier between them. While Eric was once an NFL football player, his career was plagued with injuries and short-lived. Now he?s jobless and Jessica?s fashion business made almost a billion dollars last year.
Jessica is beginning to grow concerned because she pays for everything in the relationship. A source even says: ?Jessica wants a super huge wedding, so that means it will be up to her to put up the cash.?
But other friends are concerned that Jess may be realizing she?s made a mistake with Eric.
?The thing is, as much as Jess could not wait to get engaged, she hasn?t actually set a date yet, not has she begun to make plans,? says the source. ?It makes you wonder if the wedding will actually come off, or if Jess will get tired of paying the bills and look for a man who is more of a financial equal.?

I have two big reasons why I think this report isn?t the whole truth. First, the story about Eric being drunk off his ass. If that happened (probably), it was likely because he was trying to keep up with Jessica and her extremely high tolerance for liquor. Secondly, Jessica isn?t going to call off the wedding. She just isn?t. Let?s be honest, here. She isn?t.

Someone has teased Jessica Simpson’s hair to dizzying new heights!
Over the weekend, the singer’s publicist posted a startling TwitPic of Simpson with her blonde locks fluffed up in the style of an 18th century noblewoman.
Reportedly prepping for a magazine photo shoot, Simpson — currently engaged to ex-NFL pro Eric Johnson — wore a white robe and a sultry expression in the pic.
“Hey Jessica Simpson,” the caption red, “Nice new ‘do for 2011.”

I thought Twitter was supposed to be a safe haven for attention seeking chicks who want to show off their boobs on the internet without doing porn, I guess it’s broken today because I don’t know what the hell is going on with this picture. Here’s Jessica Simpson getting some rotten clown hairdo I don’t
