When I read this interview Billboard did with Jessica Simpson on her going country with her music, I seriously just rolled my eyes. I really think that Jessica Simpson doesn’t even care how she’s famous and rich, just as long as she’s famous and rich. I mean, she tried pop music and no one cared or bought her albums. She tried a make-up and lotion line and everyone knew it was gross and overpriced! She’s got a boot and shoe line but nobody buys ‘em! She tried acting and no one wanted to watch her! So now her and Papa Joe are wondering what any other possible thing for her to do is. I mean, they are desperate for the big bucks! Jessica can’t sing. Neither can Ashlee. With that said, isn’t country music the worst place for someone who can’t sing? I believe it is! But she’s going there anyway.

Simpson declined to name songwriting collaborators, but tells Billboard.com she will most definitely be involved in the creative process. “Writing is a release for me,” she says. “It’s a way for me to tell my story. That’s not to say I wouldn’t record a song that I didn’t write. It’s just that it has been a while since I have opened the book.”

But why country, and why now? “I am a country girl,” she says. “I grew up in Texas, and country music was what I listened to. I always wanted to make a country album, but I wanted to wait until the time was right.”

“I think there is a strength in female country artists,” Simpson adds, citing Martina McBride, Shania Twain, Faith Hill and Reba McEntire as some of her inspirations.

Writing is a release, huh? She doesn’t write anything she does! She’s the queen of failed remakes! I mean, her first CD she sang “I Think That I’m In Love With You” which was a total rip off of “Jack and Diane.” Then, she stole “These Boots Are Made for Walkin’” from Nancy Sinatra. She even tried to remake Goldie Hawn’s “Private Benjamin” with “Major Movie Star.” She doesn’t know how to be creative! If she wrote, it would probably be “Diet coke, those green tea energy drinks.. what are they called? Oh, yeah! Enviga. And Umm..” Oh wait, that’s her grocery list! That’s all she can write! She’s a joke and I think we all know it’s just a matter of time before she disappears completely!
