You thought the most ridiculous part of Jessica Simpson's interview with Oprah on Wednesday was Oprah's claim that Jessica was a size 4 at the infamous chili cookoff apperance? Nope. Jessica wants us to believe everyone was making fun of her because she gained just 10 pounds. Hold your laughter please. From the New York Post:
"The fact I was famous last year for gaining 10 pounds is ridiculous and really sad," the curvy, healthy-looking singer told Oprah Winfrey in an interview telecast [Wednesday].That picture on the left was taken in late 2006; the one on the right, shortly after the chili cookoff last year. Yeah, I can believe that Jessica gained only 10 pounds . . . wait, we're just talking about her neck, right?
Simpson, 29, said nothing has hurt her more than the fat jokes she's had to endure since she performed at a chili cook-off in Florida on Jan. 25, 2009, wearing the now-infamous jeans and a chunky leopard-print belt.
"I didn't want to sit down and talk with anybody about it, because I felt guilty," she said. "I felt like, you know, if people look at me and maybe they're a size bigger, they look at themselves and they think they're fat. I don't want other people to feel fat if they're a size 6 or whatever size they are. It's a really hard thing for me to talk about. Because I celebrate women of all sizes, and I think we're all beautiful."
