Born July 10, 1980, in Dallas, Texas, this sexy 5' 3"
recording star and singer displays a hard core attitude
in her performances. Jessica has a younger sister named
Ashlee. Her father, who is a psychologist, manages her
career, and her mother designs her wardrobe and assists
in the business affairs. Jessica first developed and
nurtured her talent in the local Baptist church, where
her father also works as the congregation's youth
minister.
While at church camp, at the age of 13, Jessica sang
Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You" and an
arrangement of "Amazing Grace". One of the camp's
visitors, a gentleman who was launching a gospel record
label saw great promise and profits in her voice.
Jessica began to tour with Christian youth conferences
with tunes like "True Love Waits", sometimes
entertaining audiences of 20,000 people.
Jessica is boldly traveling down several fresh new
musical avenues. In addition to offering more of the
lush, passionate ballads that have become her signature,
she has effectively expanded her creative styles. This
includes ebullient rhythm pop and sultry R&B and is a
collection of funk-fortified songs and sophisticated
contemporary ballads. Jessica has the finesse and
confidence of a well seasoned performer.
Jessica says she is part of a positive new breed of
teenager and youths who welcome responsibility and
propriety. In school, Jessica hung with a crowd that was
popular and respected, and she was elected Homecoming
Queen two years in a row at J.J. Pierce High School.
Jessica's relationship with her fans is of tremendous
importance to her. "They keep me going. They inspire me.
I do all I can to keep in close touch with the fans who
support my music, whether it be via my shows or on the
Internet. The energy I get from them is extraordinary."
Jessica states, "That's what I really wanted to come
across on these songs, confidence". Jessica notes, "I
wanted to show that with that inner strength and inner
light, nothing is impossible." That said, Jessica admits
that she does occasionally enjoy flexing a little
external heat... even if it's completely innocent.
"There's a cut on the album, 'Hot Like Fire', that I
think will take people by surprise", she says of the
self-assured hip-hop-flavored cut produced by Cory
Rooney. "It's a hard-core 'attitude' song. You might not
even recognize my voice at first. It's totally raw and
intense. It's a shake-your-hips kind of song. I love
it."
Singer Jessica Simpson used to leave notes on her
mirror telling herself how beautiful she was.
Simpson, who stars in MTV's "Newlyweds" with husband
Nick Lachey, says she was never comfortable with her
looks and had to take drastic measures to improve her
self-esteem, femalefirst.com reported.
But Jessica, 24, says when she met Nick she didn't need
the notes any more because he made her feel beautiful.
"I didn't start feeling comfortable in my own skin until
I was 20. That's when you begin to accept your flaws
because you can't change them," the website quoted her
as saying.
"Dukes of Hazzard" star, Jessica Simpson discussed
her tits during promotion for the new flick reports
MSNBC.
"Mine are definitely real," she revealed, according to
SkyNews. "At school my boobs were bigger than all my
friends' and I was afraid to show them. Now, I feel they
make my outfits look better. They're like an accessory."
Joe Simpson, her manager/father/ex-minister said "When
we were in church work [my daughters] wore bikinis and
short shorts," he said. "People in the church got mad at
me then but we believe that what's in the heart is more
important than what's on the outside."
