You know how I?m a total bitch, right? Well, I?ve stooped to a new level of C-U-Next-Tuesday-ness, because as I was reading Us Weekly?s coverage of Jessica Simpson?s appearance on the Early Show, I laughed out loud, and I haven?t been able to stop giggling yet. Remember how Jessica was demanding that the wait staff at her engagement party tell her how cute her budget engagement ring is? Yeah? Jessica said that when Eric proposed and she saw the ring, she burst into tears. TEARS OF JOY. Here?s the line that is making me laugh so much: ?I first said ‘Yes!’. I didn’t even try the ring on until 5 minutes in. I just sat there and cried with him.” OMG! Can?t you just see it?!? Jessica takes one look at the ring and she starts crying and Eric starts crying and Jessica is like ?Oh, I guess I should try it on, maybe.? She should have pretended that it didn?t fit, and then gently suggest that they go out and get another ring.
Tears of joy! Jessica Simpson says she was a shocked, blubbery mess after Eric Johnson, her beau of less than six months, proposed Nov. 11. Opening up about her engagement during a Monday appearance on CBS’ The Early Show, Simpson, 30, says Johnson’s proposal was “a total surprise.”
“I had to sit on his knee I was shocked,” the singer says. “To really get what was happening.”
What was her reaction when Johnson gave her a ruby, diamond and gold Neil Lane sparkler?
“I first said ‘Yes!’” Simpson told Harry Smith, giggling. “I didn’t even try the ring on until 5 minutes in,” she explained. “I just sat there and cried with him.”
She says she loves that Johnson went the unconventional route with her new sparkler — choosing the ruby, her birthstone, to make the ring stand out.
“I’ve already done the traditional thing,” she sniffed of her ring from first husband Nick Lachey, who’s also newly engaged to love Vanessa Minnillo. “I wanted to do something that was different.”
She says that beau Johnson “had a plan a long time ago” to propose. “He had a [sit-down] with my mom and dad about it…He was a gentleman about it.”
Now promoting a new Christmas album, she cooed that Johnson is “the best man in my life…He is just really thoughtful. Keeps me very centered. [He always] makes me feel like my feet are on the ground.’
Added the bride-to-be: “He’s the most special part of my life and my day.”
Along with her parents, the engaged couple are spending their first Thanksgiving in New York City.

And now I?m laughing at the idea of poor Eric sitting down with Papa Joe ?a long time ago? to talk about marrying poor dumb Jessica. That is the conversation I would like to have a video of. Honestly, I imagine that the ?business? side of this would make our heads spin. I bet Papa Joe offered an old-fashioned dowry for his daughter. Ugh. Why should we not call Jessica pathetic when that?s the way she demands to be treated?
Here?s a closeup of the ring:

Landing back on the East Coast, Jessica Simpson and Eric Johnson were spotted arriving in New York City yesterday (November 21).
The ?Come On Over? songstress and her hunky fianc looked happy as they made their way past the paparazzi, readying for the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday.
Curiously enough, Jess didn?t seem to want anyone to see her ruby engagement ring, as she kept her hand insider her sweater sleeve. It is rumored that she?s not a big fan of the ring.
The trip back east comes after a swanky engagement party at Jessica?s parents? Encino, California estate last Thursday (November 18).
During the shindig, Jess seemed less-than-thrilled about her ring. "At one point, she asked one of the servers what she thought of the ring. When the server said it was beautiful, Jessica snapped, 'You don't mean that!'? said an eyewitness.

A little over a week after her ex-husband announced his engagement to Vanessa Minnillo, Jessica Simpson announced that she’s getting married, too. So nanny-nanny boo-boo, stick your head in doo-doo, Nick Lachey! Star Magazine says:
A rep confirmed the engagement on Sunday, just ten days after Jessica’s ex-husband Nick Lachey announced his engagement.
Jessica and Eric couple began dating in May and on Saturday, the singer was spotted flashing a [three-stone engagement ring that features a central ruby flanked by two diamonds] during an appearance at Dillard’s at Oak Park Mall in Kansas City.
Boy, there’s nothing like getting engaged out of spite, right? Unless it’s having a baby out of spite. I know it’s the only reason I have any kids. The child tax credits are just the icing on my bitterness cake.

Her marriage to Nick Lachey ended in disaster, but that?s not stopping Jessica Simpson from saying ?I Do? again.
The ?Come On Over? accepted a proposal from her boyfriend of five months Eric Johnson, and her father Joe Simpson has given his blessing.
The former Baptist preacher/music manager tweeted, ?So very happy for Jess and Eric. May they have a lifetime of joy and happiness.?
Johnson asked for Jessica?s hand in marriage and gave her a ruby-and-diamond engagement ring over the weekend.

Making for quite the whirlwind romance, Jessica Simpson and boyfriend Eric Johnson are officially engaged to be married!
Confirming the good news, a rep for Miss Simpson stated, "Yes, we are excited to confirm that they are engaged!"
The wedding plans come after the "Dukes of Hazzard" actress began dating the former NFL player back in May of this year - with the two having been together for a short six months.
The timing of the pair's engagement also comes on the heels of Jessica's ex husband Nick Lachey's engagement news to Vanessa Minnillo.
While no wedding date has been divulged, Jessica and Eric plan on spending Thanksgiving together in NYC, as Simpson said, "We're all gonna be in New York. I'm gonna be on a [Macy's parade] float. It's not always the best way to spend a Thanksgiving, but it's a great way to celebrate. So, maybe I'll just have all families on the float."

Well this is just shocking! Wait? no, that?s not the word. What word means ?the opposite of shocking, and Jessica Simpson is being WAY too obvious in her attempt to steal the thunder of her ex-husband Nick Lachey, thus proving that she is, in fact, actually bothered by his recent engagement.? Is there a word for that? Something like ?farty? or ?Obvious McTragedy?. Anyway, Us Weekly has some sources who claim that Jessica and Eric Johnston are now engaged. So I?ll give Jessica some credit - it?s not like she?s confirming anything (her Twitter is quiet, as is People Magazine), this is just a random unnamed-source report from Us Weekly. Although? Us Weekly does get a lot of scoops about Jess. And Jessica has already made it pretty clear that she?s expecting a ring.
Jessica Simpson is off the market!
Sources confirm to UsMagazine.com that the singer, 30, became engaged to beau Eric Johnson on Thursday, just days after Us broke the news that her ex-husband, Nick Lachey, popped the question to Vanessa Minnillo, his love of nearly five years. Simpson and Lachey, 37, split in 2005, after three years of marriage.
On Saturday, Simpson flashed a sizable ring on her left hand during an appearance at Dillard’s at Oak Park Mall in Kansas City.
The Texas native began dating the former NFL player in May while he was estranged from his first wife, stylist Keri Johnson; their divorce was finalized five months later.
Though Ashlee Simpson-Wentz recently told Us that her sister “is happy, so we’re all really happy,” sources insist that most of Simpson’s friends are concerned about Johnson’s motives for dating the singer.
“Eric was never that successful in the NFL, but he’s always wanted the celebrity lifestyle,” a source told Us in October. “Her friends do not trust him.”

I don?t really trust Eric either, although I do think he probably cares for Jess, and they do seem to make each other happy. At the end of the day, I don?t really know how a dude of normal intelligence puts up with Jessica for any extended period of time, but maybe the sex just completely makes up for everything. As far as the engagement rumor/report - eh. I think they probably will get engaged, but I?m not sure if it?s happening right now. Of course, the whole process could have sped up because of Nick?s announcement.

As one of the thousands of attendees at the 2010 Women?s Conference in Long Beach, California, Jessica Simpson spoke with press about her insecurities and how she manages to stay upbeat.
The ?Come On Over? singer explained to USA Today, "There's no way you're not going to be affected by the ugly things people say about you. It's very hurtful. It definitely brings up a lot of your own insecurities."
But, with a little help, Jess is able to be positive. "It takes a great family and wonderful friends ? and love definitely helps, too ? to get through it," she says.
Speaking about her current beau Eric Johnson, Ms Simpson gushed, "He definitely makes me happy and makes me very comfortable being who I am. It's nice to be with somebody who praises you for all the right reasons."

She?s all about women?s empowerment, so it?s only natural that Jessica Simpson was one of the speakers at The Women?s Conference yesterday (October 25).
The ?With You? songstress donned a black suit and took the stage at the Long Beach Convention Center in Long Beach, California to deliver her speech to the ladies in the house.
And Ms. Simpson was in good company- the other ladies who spoke yesterday included Ali Wentworth and Maria Shriver.
