Jessica Simpson Wants to Be Back in Nashville

Posted: October 7th, 2008 at 3:58 pm  |  By: Alison Bonaguro  

Jessica SimpsonThere's a certain sweet refuge in Nashville, especially for celebrities. And even more so for celebs who would otherwise be mauled by paparazzi after a simple dinner out with a girlfriend in West Hollywood. In this clip from E! Online, Jessica Simpson's usually cheerful demeanor is replaced with exasperation, and rightfully so. She looks downright fed up with the sea of zoom lenses that are making it physically impossible to just walk to her car. When she finally does, she looks back at the photographers and says, "Take me back to Nashville." Amen, Jessica.

    She couldn’t have wanted to go back that bad;it took her 4 days!Besides,who do you think picked up the tab for the paparazzi?Do you honestly believe they’d be there waiting on HER?

    I watched the clip and I think its pretty funny how she fixed
    her hair before she came out. Why didn’t she leave out a back exit like others do? Anyone who has followed Jessica Simpson knows that she informs the media where she’ll be. The girl loves the attention. And, what a great way for her to get in the good graces of country fans by saying how she wants to come back to Nashville. If she really loved Nashville that much, she would move there. Not spend a few days.

    Then there’s some of us who DON’T want her back in Nashville & wish she’d stay in TX or Hollyweird.

    Uh, no. not texas. she left Texas for Hollywood. look at miranda lambert, Chris Cagle, George Strait, The randy rodgers band, pat green. Nothing like her. she’s hollywood as can be. and BTW, Nashville is closer to Hollywood than Texas. None of our cities are “entertainment” cities. Nashville is.

    You will not sit through her terrible singing to see/hear Rascal Flatts????? That’s funny!!!!!!!! Personally I don’t have any problem with Simpson being a part of Mainstream Pop Country. By definition, she fits right in to this genre. More power to her.

    Simpson is staying with Pop music. Pop Country Music.

    “She looks downright fed up with the sea of zoom lenses”

    She doesn’t look “fed up”, she looks drunk. If she really wanted a quiet dinner, maybe she shouldn’t have chosen a Hollywood hotspot.

    And we absolutely do NOT want her in Texas.

    I like Jessica. Why wouldn’t I? Honestly what has she done to anyone? And HELLO have none of you gone out and had a couple of drinks before? Does the word hypocrit mean anything to any of you? It’s not like you see her all over the news wasted every night!!!!!

  • Kevin says:

    I think Jessica is capable of being a good singer, but for some reason she changes her voice and moves her mouth around in so many weird positions that it ruins the song. If she would just stop trying to over-do everything and just sing the song i think she can sound pretty good.

  • ROSEBUD says:

    Posted: October 8th, 2008 at 5:28 pm  

    Kevin, I agree with all that you said. I have a theory on the way she delivers a song. Maybe she knows everyone is just waiting for her to screw up therfore she does.

  • RedMaZ says:

    Maybe she’s taking singing and facial expressions from Graig Morgan. Could you imagine a duet from them two? They’d be twitching and contorting so much someone might have to throw a net over them. Or a bucket of cold water.

    You people can badmouth her all you want, but her record sales are doing great. That means the Country Music fans have accepted her.

    By the tone of your notes, you people don’t have much going for you anyway.

    Lest the weak-minded attempt to toss snark, I’m NOT a JS fan. She’s cute, but otherwise I’m neutral on the whole thing.

    I can only hope that going tour with Rascal Flatts will help her. I have nothing against her, and I want everyone to do what they want to do, but she sure doesn’t seem to be helping her case any. between the hollywood hotspots, the tabloid nonsense et al.
    I agree with ROSEBUD, who cares that she seemed drunk (as long as its not habit forming)? going on tour with the rascals helped Taylor swift a lot with her presence (although not her voice so much and some people say her ego, but that’s another discussion) maybe it will help her too.

    I think someone HERE needs the bucket of cold water thrown on THEM- talk about snarky.

  • RedMaZ says:

    “Just as long as you love me”.

    I have others I’d choose to listen to but I would rip Jessica a new ass like all of you have

    Bobo says, “…her record sales are doing great. That means the Country Music fans have accepted her.”

    113,000 copies in the four weeks since the album’s release means country fans have accepted her? Maybe it just means she didn’t bring many of her pop fans with her.

    Jessica sales are not great at all in 4 weeks she is only at a little over a hundred thousand? The only reason she is in Nashville is because of Tony, if he moved you never see her unless she is trying to promote her pop oops I mean country album LOL

  • RedMaZ says:

    Posted: October 9th, 2008 at 11:07 am  

    Her album is Pop Country. That’s been established.

  • bluefish@thesea says:

    No, please-just stay where you are! You are better off with Tony’s umbrella.
