Jessica Simpson’s Country Album Cover

It’s here! It’s here! It’s here!

The cover of Jessica Simpson’s debut country album, do you know.

I can’t decide what is more frustrating to me here: the fact that there’s not a question mark at the end of the album title, or the fact that this photo was thisclose to being an upskirt.

I know, I know. I find the stress of my life overwhelming, too.

When I get stressed out, my mom tells me to sit back, breathe deeply, and think about the things in life I am grateful for.

So, I’m really grateful that this album wasn’t titled do u know. Because that just might have killed me.

  • I hate her, sorry but I can’t stand her! She’s trying to sing country now? I guess we should emphasize the word TRYING right? Those CDs of her are going to be on sale with 50% off very soon…

  • She needs a good friend to give her a good swift kick in the butt and tell her the truth about how bad and stupid she looks. This is a woman who has great natural beauty, imo, but consistently and aggravatingly messes it up in everything, style, posture, clothing, even her expression. If this was a woman at all self-aware, she would not continually present herself looking like this. Just about every time I see a pic of her, I would to shake her by the shoulders and tell her to smarten up, grow up, straighten her spine, and then whip her style and self image into shape. I don’t care that the paps take unfair shots, the above pic is obviously a deliberate shot she must have approved of and so, again, would a smart, self-aware, kick-ass woman let her image be this? No. God, that EXPRESSION. Ladies, this is not sexy! It’s cow-y! I can only imagine how infantile and shallow her self-image is, if not her entire emotional maturity, to let this one go by. I can’t believe I’m ranting about this, but geez, it’s frustrating to watch women do this to themselves. She could do better, but she and her team take the lowest common denominator and mess it up every time. She probably COULD make it in the country market, but crap like this isn’t going to help. ye gods…

  • Beet, you are officially my hero. Not only are completely hilarious and a fabulous procrastination tool, but you’re a grammar nazi like me :-)

  • She’s trying to be sexy. Since she probably thinks sexy is spelled with a “z” and an “a” somewhere, she clearly has no idea what sexy truly is. Maybe that was dear daddy’s suggestion…?

  • I think she looks beautiful and mysterious…. Hence: the title…. Do you Know (its a record title people!!!!). It is her first foray into country music and do you know her new music?????? Plus it is one of the new songs on her album, which was written by Dolly Parton.
    What is wrong with you all…. Jealousy is not very becoming!

  • Isn’t that the same picture she uses for every album cover? And let me guess, on the other side, is it a picture of her smiling? Bet it is.

    And how much do I hate the people who have to pull out the “jealousy” card when people don’t like something? The only thing of hers I’m jealous of is her $$$. I can put up with the spammers more than the morons who say everyone must be jealous if they don’t like her. What are you? 12?

  • Wow, persistant cat, you must be in the music industry to KNOW all about album covers!!!! I can’t believe the only thing you responded to of my comment is “Jealousy”… you might want to look inside and format a response as to reasons people love to hate others!!!!
    I am sure you are a good person and will take the high road!

  • i don’t like her. i’m not jealous of her, i just don’t care for how she acts. women have fought hard for years to try to become equal to men, to break out of the stereotypical women’s roles and become engineers and cpas and what not. and then this bimbo, with implanted breasts, fake hair and no brain comes along and thinks it’s cute to be dumb and has no problem wiping out all that hard work in one fell swoop.
    but what the heck, she’s just a girl, doing what she loves…….oh, and she has a boyfriend. why that was applicable to the whole i’m now in country music thing, not sure, but she sure had to point it out because i guess in her mind, one is nothing if they don’t have a man on their arm.

  • I hate this overtly pouty expression. A lot of celebs do it. Jesus, get some collagen if you want to look like Melanie Griffin.

  • The truth is for all of you… you DON’T know who she really is!
    Bottom line, she is a singer, actress and a business woman who has one of the most successful fashion collections around, that was at around $300 million last year. So Bimbo, don’t be fooled! Oh, wait, you already were! You might want to check out Forbes magazine, or Business Weekly. I don’t make blog sites my only sustenance. Come on people, she has something or you all would not even have taken the time to write about her. (Unless you truly do not have anything else to do-then you have my sympathies).

  • Did she ever really have a chance? This is all she knows. It is how her father has marketed her from the beginning of her career. Yes, she is a grown woman and she should know better but this is probably a safe place for her. I’m not a fan of hers but I find it more sad than maddening.
    She’s harmless-vapid, but harmless.

  • Tonya, could you fuck off. The way you end each post with a pitying comment is annoying. I feel sad for you that you are dumber than Jessica Simpson. Based on her body of work (albums and movies), she’s not overly talented. Being able to sing is not the only way to measure talent. Or having a successful fashion empire. She doesn’t write anything, she doesn’t design anything, she has allowed herself to be a puppet and many of the posters are quite correct, she’s not doing much to advance the cause.

    So I feel sad for you since you are so easily duped.

  • She looks beautiful here. I won’t be reviewing or hearing the country music, I hope, because I simply don’t listen to those stations.

    I know little about her honestly, so I’ll stop there.

    Or not.

    I’m a female engineer, and don’t think she’s any threat to my position.

    Just had to add that.

    And PS, I might hate her a bit. :p

  • Yes, I agree with Beet on the lack of punctuation.. but that goes along with the whole bleached airheaded persona..

  • Persistant Cat– No thank you to fucking off! and really… how do you know she doesn’t write anything? or design anything? YOU DON’T KNOW! So for you to say any of that is far more sad and annoying than you think I am!!! Me duped? Don’t think so! I KNOW!
