Simpson Watch

Jessica Simpson has been working hard with her trainer - and it looks like her workouts are paying off! Check out her muscular legs in these pics:

This split between Jessica Simpson and John Mayer doesn’t seem to be working out so well … The two of them were seen going into her hotel room at the Soho Grand in NY Sunday night and John didn’t leave until about noon the next day, complete with a great big smile slapped on his face.

Sources say Jessica is cautious about getting back together with John, who told her he needed his “space.” The source says John’s scared of commitment, so he breaks up, regrets it, and then begs her to get back together. They’ve done this about a dozen times …

Poplette.com reports:

Jessica Simpson and John Mayer have ended their romance – but perhaps not for good.

A source close to Simpson told PEOPLE magazine, “They have broken up. But they have broken up and gotten back together at least 10 times before.” According to the source, the pair are in constant contact – even as Simpson promotes her film Major Movie Star at the Cannes Film Festival in France. “They talk to each other at least six times a day. I don’t know if this breakup is permanent, but for right now they are broken up.” In fact, the pair have “been emailing and talking to each other,” since Simpson went to Cannes, says a Simpson friend. “I’m sure they’ll get back together.”

As for why the two singers split, a friend of Mayer’s says, “John did say that he broke up [with Jessica]. He said that it was because he was just over it.” But the pal says there is no other woman. “He’s fine about it, he’s not upset – but he’s definitely not looking for someone right now.”

Jessica Simpson has confirmed what I have been suspecting for a couple of weeks! She and John Mayer are OVER.

Jessica and John spent months refusing to talk about their relationship, but finally confirmed their romance in March. They were last seen together at an event in NY on May 7.

But John’s not sitting around pining over Jessica. He reportedly was at the NY nightclub Stereo over the weekend, hitting on every super-skinny girl there. The source says it was only the REALLY skinny girls he was hitting on, too…the complete opposite of curvy Jessica.

He seemed especially fond of one Asian model, but the source says John left the club alone. Some in their circle say they fully expect John and Jess to get back together because they break up and make up all the time… mainly because John objects to the way Jessica dresses.

You may not have known this, but on May 12, Jessica Simpson was in Cologne, Germany. She was performing at the UNESCO Gala 2007, which was held at the gorgeous Maritim Hotel.

She looks sultry here, like maybe she’s seducing the crowd (and with that body, she could).

Ashlee took the lead role as covergirl for Cosmo’s June issue. She’s featured with natural-looking highlights and a tight blue dress, looking half girl-next-door and half sexpot. Especially the way she’s hiking her dress up to her hip for the camera.

Who would have guessed that Jessica Simpson isn’t blonde after all! [Insert dumb blonde joke here] hehe

Jessica Simpson has revealed she isn’t the natural blonde she is often taken to be.

She told Extra recently that her newly dyed brunette locks are much closer to her natural tone: “People don’t know that about me. I was really blonde as a kid, but then I just started getting darker and darker.”

She added that her decision to ditch the bleach - and to not be bothered by a few extra pounds on her usually slim frame - is part of her new more confident outlook: “I’ve really become comfortable in who I am and my skin and just feeling beautiful five pounds heavier, five pounds smaller.”

But that extra weight isn’t going to last long as she’s going to start getting into shape for her new film Major Movie Star - where she plays a celebrity who joins the Marines: “I am going to be all ripped!”

Meet Coney Island’s hottest new attraction – Jessica Simpson!

The preening pop star invaded the New York waterfront for a photo shoot this week that had all the locals –and photographers – buzzing. Changing between red and blue gowns with matching bunches of balloons, Jess braved the windy elements, striking her best poses on the beach.

The photo shoot seemed to carry a Naval theme as she also posed with several men in vintage Navy uniforms. No word yet what the photo shoot was for.

It could be her new movie, which is military-themed, or it might only be a shoot for her newest line of shoes.

Jessica Simpson is heartbroken because her romantic summer plans have gone awry.

She starts filming Major Movie Star in June in Shreveport, Louisiana. In this comedy she plays a struggling acttress who enlists in the Marines.

She had hoped to rent a big house in Shreveport and have John Mayer share it with her. Fantasies of warm southern nights under the stars and afternoon barbecues filled her head.

But John told her it’s out of the question - he’s way too busy working this summer. He’ll try to visit when he can, but that’s the best he can do.

Karma’s a bitch. Last time she was filming in Louisiana - for Dukes of Hazzard - she didn’t want Nick to visit. Now she’s begging her lover to visit, and he won’t.

JES’ PREDICTION: This is more than a summer gone awry - it sounds like the entire relationship is headed down a gnarly path. I don’t think they’ll be together much longer.

In a rare display of testosterone, Nick Lachey bowed up against some clueless guy in a valiant effort to save the pride of his live-in girlfriend, Vanessa Minnillo.

Nick and Vanessa had a run-in on Friday night at a pre-Kentucky derby party with a guy who was not so representative of Southern hospitality.

According to Nick (via his reps), the couple were making their way through the party at Club Felt, led by Nick’s bodyguard, when some drunk guy yanked Nick’s arm and caused Vanessa to fall down.

Dude! Don’t push a lady down!

While Vanessa tried to calm her pissed off boytoy, nearby police took control of the situation and cuffed the guy. They asked Nick if he wanted to press charges, but Lachey and Minnillo were content to just put the night behind them.

I would love this story even more if Vanessa wasn’t in it, and if Nick was defending Jessica Simpson, and if Jess dumped John Mayer. Nothing against John, but I just prefer Nick. I know it’s unlikely at this point, but I’m still hoping for a miracle for The Newlyweds stars.

Jessica Simpson opens up about hair, her weight and the perils of dairy. In an interview with Extra, Simpson, who recently dyed her blond hair brown, reveals that she is naturally brunette. “People don’t know that about me,” the star says, adding, “I was really blond as a kid, but then I just started getting darker and darker.”

The change isn’t phasing Jess, though, who claims, “I’ve really become comfortable in who I am and my skin and just feeling beautiful five pounds heavier, five pounds smaller.”

Speaking of healthy, Extra reports that Simpson is currently getting in shape for an upcoming film in which her character joins the Marines (talk about disarming the enemy!). “I am going to be all ripped,” Simpson says. Getting there isn’t easy though, even for Jess, who has weaknesses like everyone else. “I’m not good on sugar,” she admits.

Even worse for the pop-star turned actress? Dairy! “You’ll hear it come out of all ends!” the star jokes. Suddenly, we have visions of Jess’ home life, with adorable boyfriend John Mayer secreting cheese away from his lactose-intolerant lady.

Despite her digestive woes, Simpson has her life and business on track, having recently added a home line to her label. “I aspire to be a brand like Ralph Lauren,” she says.

Remember the good old days when Jessica and Ashlee Simpson were best friends? Like the hair colors they’re now sporting and the guys they are seeing, the relationship between the once-close siblings is no longer what it used to be. While their reps insist the sisters are still close, a tsunami seems to be building.

“There’s certainly a sibling rivalry between them,” a source close to the two tells Star. The trouble began, says another insider when Jess’s boyfriend, John Mayer, pointed to a glamorous magazine photo and asked Jess, “How old is this picture of you?” But-whoops!-it was a shot of Ashlee! “Jessica read John the riot act,” says our source. “He definitely touched a nerve.”

Her sensitivity on the subject seems to be the direct result of Ashlee’s emergence as a sex kitten, a role once owned by Jessica. That Ashlee has become the hot blonde – a transformation that came courtesy of a surgeon’s knife, a bottle of peroxide and dramatic weight loss- is troubling to Jessica, who has morphed into a buxom and sometimes frumpy brunette due to a dye job and about 20 extra pounds. “Jessica hears the catty talk about how Ashlee looks like her- from two years ago,” says the source. “It totally bothers her.”

In what has become rare during the past few weeks, Jessica Simpson and John Mayer were seen together at the “Poiret: King of Fashion” Costume Institute Gala at the New York Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Jessica is looking quite busty in these photographs, which isn’t out of the ordinary, except I’m wondering why she’s suddenly all about showing off her body again. It must be the trick of having John Mayer in her life - before him (and after her breakup with Nick Lachey), she seemed quite fond of covering up.

Anyway, she looks great here, if not a tad overly orange-y.

Singer Jessica Simpson was photographed at the Pure Nightclub at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas this past Friday night (May 4th).

Jess was on hand to emcee a performance by the Las Vegas Pussycat Dolls at the club and to help celebrate the second anniversary of the Pussycat Dolls Lounge at Caesars.

Afterward (and during!), she partied hard with other celebs, but John Mayer was nowhere to be found.

In a recent Cosmo interview Ashlee Simpson has been reaffirming her self-confidence in respect to her image. According to the interview:

“I feel very confident with the way I look,” the 22-year-old singer says in Cosmopolitan magazine’s June issue, on newsstands Tuesday. “But I felt just as confident the way I looked before. I’ve always been confident with who I am.”

She also mentioned what type of guys she is usually attracted to:

“It’s really hard for me to like Hollywood-type guys,” she says. “I like guys who are relaxed and chill and who think I’m sexy no matter what I do. And I like guys who are into surfing. They’re cute and seem more laid-back, and I’m a pretty laid-back person.”

I love how celebrities come out and express their “confidence” with their self image after they go and get plastic surgery. As far as the guys she is attracted to, she forgot to mention that one other requirement is that the guy must be a bass player in a pop band who wears tighter jeans than she does.
