JESSICA SIMPSON ADDRESSES QUESTIONS ABOUT HER WEIGHT AND HER LOVE LIFE ON CBS’S “LATE SHOW with DAVID LETTERMAN,” WEDNESDAY, MARCH 10

Singer Jessica Simpson talks about the media’s speculation about her weight and also addresses questions about her love life, on the LATE SHOW with DAVID LETTERMAN, Wednesday, March 10.

Letterman held up the much talked about “mom jeans” photo of Simpson from last year, which had media speculating about her weight. Simpson said, “It ended up being some sort of controversy for a year…Unfortunately, people were talking about my weight for a year.” “And that’s it, that’s what we’re worried about?” Letterman asked, referring to the photo. Simpson joked, “Yeah, that’s the fat woman in Hollywood, apparently.” “Really,” Letterman said, “Well, that looks fine to me, for heaven’s sakes.” “Hey, it was fine to me,” Simpson said, “I was confident. I wouldn’t have been on stage if I wasn’t confident.” “But did you react to this?” Letterman asked, “Did you say, ‘Oh, maybe I should lose weight,’ or what happened?” “Well, normally you would think that I’d become anorexic after what everybody was saying about me,” Simpson said, “but I just decided to eat more…Why not? Enjoy life.”

The host then asked her about her recent romantic relationships, including ex-boyfriend Tony Romo, quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys, who she dated for two years. “Tony is great, still a dear friend of mine,” she said. She said she’s still a big Cowboys fan and added, “I still look at his cute butt in the outfit…He’s a good guy.” “What is that like, to have a champion quarterback and you dating and stuff?” Letterman asked. “It’s great,” Simpson said. “I’m from Texas, so we’re all about football. I actually got to live a pretty normal life when I dated Tony, other than the whole ‘jinx’ situation. But I got to live a normal life, go on dates and no paparazzi…” “Then, what happened,” Letterman asked, “What went wrong?” “I don’t know,” Simpson replied, “You’d have to ask him that. He broke up with me on my birthday.” “Talk about a fumble,” Letterman joked. Later in the interview, when Letterman asked if she still has feelings for Romo, Simpson remarked, “I will always adore Tony. He’s going to be one of my friends for life, for sure.”

Letterman then brought up John Mayer who Simpson said she was also with for two years, and she joked, “Two years, I guess that’s my limit.” Simpson said they’d met at a party when they were at the same record label, and Letterman asked if they’d then dated and fell in love. “Yes, absolutely,” Simpson replied. “And then what happened there?” Letterman asked. “Well, we broke up a lot,” Simpson said, “a lot.” Letterman also asked her about Mayer’s comments about her in his now-infamous Playboy interview, in which he called her “sexual napalm.” Simpson said, “Yeah, I mean, normally you would think that somebody you care about would keep those intimate details to himself…I mean, it was definitely a compliment, in a way, but I don’t really want people to know that about me. That’s, you know, I’m like the good girl and then that happens.” “Well, I think it’s – you can be both,” Letterman said, and Simpson replied, “Yeah, but that’s the thing – I am…but he gave away my game.” Simpson said that she has not talked to Mayer since the article came out, but that “I will always care about him. I think he’s a great person, a great musician, but I was very disappointed by the article.” Simpson’s entire interview can be seen on the LATE SHOW tonight (11:35 PM-12:37 AM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.

Also visiting the LATE SHOW tonight are former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich, who presents the Top Ten List; talk show host Dr. Mehmet Oz; and musical guests Alkaline Trio.

The LATE SHOW with DAVID LETTERMAN is a production of Worldwide Pants Incorporated. Barbara Gaines, Matt Roberts, Jude Brennan, Maria Pope, Eric Stangel, Justin Stangel and Rob Burnett are the executive producers.

Simpson talks John Mayer to Oprah – “I was so disappointed in him. That’s not the John I knew.”

After John Mayer went public in an interview about his sexual life during his relationship with Jessica Simpson calling it “sexual napalm”, Jessica Simpson will be featured on “The Oprah Winfrey Show” in which Simpson discusses the John Mayer situation.

Simpson tells Oprah, “I was so disappointed in him. That’s not the John I knew.”

Even though Mayer has apologized, Simpson tells Oprah, “I haven’t written back. I don’t accept it … I hope he gets his life together.”

Billy Corgan sets the record straight regarding rumors of relationship with Jessica Simpson

Smashing Pumpkins frontman Billy Corgan has set the record straight in regards to rumors of a relationship with Jessica Simpson. Corgan tells the Chicago Tribune, “The stuff that I’ve seen doesn’t have any bearing to the reality that I’m in. It’s like being in a cartoon. It has nothing to do with what’s really going on or how I feel.”

Jessica Simpson doesn’t discuss “sexual napalm” but she does mention Mayer in her latest interview

We were hoping Jessica Simpson would comment on John Mayer’s comment of her being sexual napalm in an interview with Playboy. For those who didn’t read the interview, Mayer tells Playboy in his interview (about his relationship with Simpson), “That girl, for me, is a drug. And drugs aren’t good for you if you do lots of them. Yeah, that girl is like crack cocaine to me… Sexually it was crazy. That’s all I’ll say. It was like napalm, sexual napalm… There are people in the world who have the power to change our values. Have you ever been with a girl who made you want to quit the rest of your life? Did you ever say, “I want to quit my life and just fuckin’ snort you? If you charged me $10,000 to fuck you, I would start selling all my shit just to keep fucking you.”

Simpson doesn’t reply to Mayer’s “sexual napalm” comment but she does tell Allure magazine, “”He didn’t make me go brunette! John doesn’t get credit for making me brunette. He’d like to think so, but he doesn’t deserve the credit.”

But she did talk about former boyfriend Tony Romo. Simpson tells Allure Magazine, “”I’m still a fan. I’m a huge fan. I wear my gear, and I cheer Tony on. You know, I talked to Tony today. None of my breakups, none of it’s been bitter.”

Jessica Simpson walking the dogs

Jessica Simpson is doing everything she can to battle back from heartbreak. Life post-Tony Romo consists of lots of exercise and bonding time with her best friend and personal hair-stylist Ken Paves. The two visited an LA park Monday morning for a jog with Paves’ three Saluki dogs, and Jessica showered the pups with affection, exchanging kisses and petting them lovingly. Still a bit withdrawn and noticeably downtrodden, Simpson seems determined to bounce back from the breakup toned and beautiful, with the support of her closest family and friends. Fame Pictures, Inc.
