Subject: Jessica Simpson stirs controversy with Christian Groups

Written By: woops on 08/01/05 at 3:07 pm

To dumb of a topic to be on the political board and just felt like posting this...


Nothing new since she's always been trashy and been known to put the feminist movement back 50 years like every trashy pop act, including herself & her equally notalented sister...  ::)  :P

The song "These Boots Were Made For Walking" wasn't even a good song to begin with...


Source: "Best Week Ever"  :-X (Again, nothing else was on  ::)  :P)

She doesn't affect the womans movement at all.  I think its more insulting to women to think that some silly girl is going to affect the womans movement one little bit.

To be honest, I actually can't tell the difference between B.S., Christina Ackulera, etc. from Jessica Simpson...  ::)  :P


I wonder if that "Dukes of Hazzard" movie flopped...

Then again, the original show wasn't good either

Ah, the blue moon came out again. (We agree on something)

pssstttt......I was trying to be funny :D


We're all a bit cuckoo  :D

But, really, I think just because Jessica is "supposedly" Christian and is suppose to set morals for girls her age - well, here's a wake up call - she's left all that behind many, many moons ago and she's far from being any model for Christians - and if they're looking to her as a source - then there really is something terribly wrong!

I think over the past year, she has gotten JUST as trashy as Christina and Britney. That video, "these boots were made for walking" was so gross. I used to have more respect for her when she first came out as a singer...but now, she's just like the rest.

But,she's 25 now, she's not a teenager anymore.  Personally, I don't think she's that bad, considering some of the other "role models" her age :-\\

If I had a daughter, I'd rather she emulated Jessica Simpson than Lindsay, Britney or Christina...


I do agree that if my daughter chose to follow someone  like Jessica Simpson, I would prefer her rather than the other tween triplets -  Britney, Lindsay and Christina.

Fake? How is she fake? I think she's been the most "real" pop act in a long time. Look at her reality show, she's just like any other 25 year old. She makes stupid jokes, farts, burps, doesn't pretend to be something she's not. To me that is as real as you can get. I don't think she is trashy at all. Sure she is sexy and wears revealing clothes, hell if I had a body like hers, I would too.

Woops, it's kinda funny that you're putting Jessica down for being "too sexy", but look at your washed-up idol Debbie Gibson.....she posed for Playboy and received no attention. She took her clothes off for nothing. Who's more trashy?  :o  Manufactured? She isn't manufactured like all the other singers. If you really know the story behind Jessica, you'd know she is the complete opposite. Once again, more false "truths" by Woops.

Jessica has a great voice, is drop dead gorgeous, seems like a down to earth person, has all the fame in the world............more power to her. I mean really, no one here has given me any reason to maybe consider you may be right. If anything, and I hate to say it.....you're jealous.

I personally don't think Jessica Simpson has a great voice. If she does, it's been very distorted and morphed by super technicians where it hardly ever sounds that good. Christina Aguilara wins points with vocal power.

Deborah Gibson wrote/produced most of her own material during her "Electric Youth". 

And I wouldn't call Deborah Gibson "washed up" since she's a successful stage actress, still releases good but underapreciated albums, and still have a steady fan base.  As for the issue of Playboy, it was done in good taste and yes it was a poor attempt, but atleast she didn't appear on some humilating reality show like "Ths Surreal Life", which she turned down.

The only reason I trash Jessica Simpson & other pop acts is because I feel like venting from all the hype that's around it.

There's a proliferation of dumb blonde singer/model/actresses of late.  I just ignore them the best I can.  They're REALLY not worth your attention or mine.

Jessica Simpson does not "set back" the progress of women in this country.  To say who really does would be too political to post here.  If so-called Christian Groups didn't have things to get outraged over, they'd be out of business over night!

ummmm.....were you around in the 80's when SHE was the focus of all the "hype"  and the Britney/Christina thing was Debbie/Tiffany ???


I was too young (born in 1984) when the whole Debbie/Tiffany thing came about, and didn't even know such a thing existed and who Tiffany is until a few years ago.


BTW, I respect a few young actors, singers, etc from today.  :)

It is the so-called Christian Groups who are setting back the progress of women in this country.  But then
maybe Jessica is, after all her father was a minister before he found out he could make more money pimping out his daughters

I sense alot of jealousy in this thread. The women are mad because she's one of the hottest girls on the planet and the guys are mad because they'll never date someone that beautiful. Get over it! There's much trashier people in our society than Jessica.

Because she is hot?

I'm sorry but I have to disagree with you on that one. I wouldn't even include her on the top 10 list of attractive women, in my opinion. I can think of MANY other women who are indeed gorgeous, and don't have to be fake to have that status.  I am a female, and I have NO problem admitting that a female is beautiful....but when a female has to turn to looking trashy to be "attractive"...I don't find that beautiful in the least. People are just too superficial, and all they go by is face value, and in this day and age, a face, isn't even a real "face" any longer, with all of the plastic surgery, make-up, and TONS of airbrushing/photoshopping.

There;s no jealously here. I admire Jessica. She can do whatever she wants. But, I also don't think she's the hottest thing out there (I agree with Quirk on that). The question is - have we lowered our standards so much that we have to say, "there's much trashier people in our society that Jessica." I mean, that's just saying that "Yeah, she's trashy, but there are even more trashier out there I could be attracted to." Like Quirk said, I am girl and I can be open minded and tell you who I think is attractive and not, and Jessica would definetely not be considered a "beautiful" person to me. She's pretty, yes, but not jaw-droppingly beautiful.

Our paper gave it a C-. Not bad considering what it could've been... they said that Jessica was probably the best part of the movie and that the sense of lawlessness from the Dukes of Hazard doesn't fit well into modern times as it did some 20 years ago... so, that's that..
