If These Boots are Made for Walking...

...then I hope she's got a jacket for those winter months. Believe it or not - I actually like Jessica Simpson. And not just because of her reality show; I've actually sat through her entire A&E biography. It's just I have lots of mother instincts, and so I worry about the girl. If you're a mom, I'm sure you know what I'm talking about.

It seems like women who have fame and fortune have an expiration date. They can only stay fresh and original for a while, and then they slowly start to get distasteful. I think Jessica is on the brink of stinking up the joint (like Britney Spears feet) - and that has nothing to do with her portraying Daisy Duke btw! Daisy Duke had class. Is there something about being famous that tranforms you into someone trashy? Something in the water in Hollywood? My fear is that eventually the halftime show for the NFL will have Britney, Jessica and Christina grinding and stroking each other's assets - and people will still buy their 9 year old girls their CDs. At least two of those three can sing (sorry Britney), but they aren't showcasing their talent anymore. It's like they were trying to decide between a career in porn or a career in music, and they thought - hey, why can't I have both?

No wonder the world voted for Carrie Underwood to win American Idol - how fun will it be to watch her go from a sweet little country girl, to another blond lip synching naked on her music videos. It's reality tv at it's best.

Signing off,
Heather
