Experiencing difficulties and media criticism, Jessica Simpson talks about her ex-husband Nick Lachey, boyfriend Tony Romo, career (reinventing and on-stage screw-ups), marriage and many more for the June 2009 issue of Vanity Fair Magazine.
Here's some of highlights:
Jessica on media criticism: “When it comes to media criticism, that’s just something I have had to train myself—literally train myself—to ignore…. I mean, the way people make it sound, I should have never been singing in the first place…. It comes with what I do, and I know that every day the media’s going to challenge me, is going to want to bring me down. But I feel like I’m at such a place that I own myself, and it’s authentic. I own that authentic part of myself, and none of those words are harsh enough to make me believe them…. I can’t imagine saying some of the things people have said about me about anybody else.”
Jessica on ex-husband Nick and if the Newlyweds series ruined their marriage: “I have not spoken to him in years” and “In all honesty, I believe it did not affect our marriage, Because we enjoyed watching those episodes, and that will always be a time I cherish. It made me understand what marriage is, what love is, what commitment is.”
Jessica on marriage plans: “It was what we all wanted. Go to college, get married, and have babies. It was my way of thinking. At 16, every boyfriend I had I was going to marry.”
Jessica on still being described as a jinx on boyfriend Tony Romo’s football career: “Can’t help it. But we don’t let it affect our relationship. If we did, we wouldn’t be together, because it happened at the very beginning. Dating the Cowboys quarterback comes with hype, the fans, the bloggers, but I’ve never dated a guy that was more simple. I’m always there for him after a game, and he knows he has me to come home to.”
