ELLE Magazine's cover girl, Jessica Simpson has been a tabloid staple since her meteoric rise to stardom in the late 90's. Alongside her fellow POP teen sensation phenoms Brittney and Christina, she can be seen on some covers of some the most popular publications in the country. However, this time it isn't some salacious story about heartbreak or divorce. No, these days its all about her billion dollar brand, a new beau, and a bundle of joy in her womb. She has come a long way since the famous question "is this chicken, or tuna?" She has honed her business acumen becoming one of the most successful entertainers to convert into a mogul. In fact is is almost hard to call to ones awareness the days when Jessica belted out catchy glittery tunes to a pop driven commercial beat.

On taking tabloid brutality in stride:
“I’m still standin’,” she drawls. “I grew up very strong! You know, my father used to be an adolescent therapist. I remember sitting at his office, watching the girls walkin’ in and out. Kids doin’ coke at 16…heroin. Pregnant at 14. I could see what I didn’t want to be.”
