Jessica Simpson covers the June issue of Vanity Fair. The cover line asks the question: "Do you call this fat?" Well, after all those photos of her looking rounder than usual surfaced earlier this year.
So, this was her opportunity to speak freely about the media's obsession with celebrities' weight - her weight.
On her weight being discussed in the media:
“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.”
On media criticism:
“When it comes to media criticism, that’s just something I have had to train myself— literally train myself — to ignore. Because I’m the one up there onstage, and I can feel the energy of the crowd. And I know when I did good. And I know when I did great. And there wasn’t one time on this tour when I felt like I butchered it. I mean, the way people make it sound, I should have never been singing in the first place.”
She also reveals that she hasn't spoken to ex-husband Nick Lachey "in years."
