No matter where you are in the world, chances are, you know that Jessica Simpson is no stranger to the spotlight. Her hit pop and country songs, movies, television and eponymous collection of shoes, clothes, bags etc. have helped to keep her in America’s eye, but we all know Jessica for more than just her career achievements. Jessica has been followed, studied and scrutinized since she released her first hit single at the age of 19. Now, Jessica turns the tables on our culture and cultures all over the world to find The Price of Beauty, her new original series on VH1.

The new VH1 docu-series, produced by RDF USA (”Wife Swap”, “Secret Millionaire”), takes Jessica all over the world to meet every day women. She may also discover some local pop culture icons on their own quests for beauty along the way. Jessica will study the local fashions, dietary fads and beauty regimes and even participate in some of the extreme practices she discovers.

“When Chris approached me with his idea for a show about true beauty, I was immediately intrigued,” Jessica stated. “I have always believed that beauty comes from within and confidence will always make a woman beautiful, but I know how much pressure some women put on themselves to look perfect. I am really looking forward to discovering how beauty is perceived in different cultures and participating in some of the crazy things people do to feel beautiful. I know we will all learn a lot on this journey and I am so excited that VH1 is coming along on what I’m sure will be a wild ride.”

Chris Coelen, CEO of RDF Media USA, said: “In this series, Jessica will tackle a serious issue with her unique and relatable blend of humor and heart. We’re thrilled to be in business with Jessica, Joe and VH1 on what we know will be an exciting and eye-opening show.”

“Perhaps more than any other pop culture figure on the radar today, Jessica Simpson has been the target of our obsession with beauty on both sides of the equation. She is a woman who can set trends and create firestorms with a single photo,” said Jeff Olde, EVP, VH1 Original Programming & Production. “We could not be more thrilled that Jessica now gets to take control of that conversation and take a look at the idea of beauty through her own unique, unfiltered lens. And we at VH1 are excited to be in the passenger seat next to her as she begins this fantastic journey.”

The Price of Beauty is set to begin shooting in mid July. Executive Producers include Jessica and Joe Simpson as well as Chris Coelen, Claire O’Donohoe and Greg Goldman for RDF USA (Wife Swap, Secret Millionaire). The show will be produced by Jeff Olde, Jill Holmes, Alex Demyanenko and Sean Boyle for VH1 to air in 2010.

The new issue of Us Weekly reports that Jessica Simpson — who endured much body bullying in January for performing in a pair of unflattering high-waisted jeans — recently visited some TV networks to pitch a reality series about society’s scrutiny of women’s bodies.

The premise of the program, titled The Price of Beauty: “She and a friend set off on a road trip around the world in search of what people find beautiful and why,” says a source.

(In a recent Vanity Fair cover story, Simpson talked about criticism of her figure: “It comes with what I do, and I know that every day the media’s going to challenge me.”)

The insider continues that the onetime Newlyweds star, 28, will be hands-on with the show — and will even try some of the “shocking things that women do to make themselves beautiful. Picture Fear Factor.”

The singer’s rep said, “Jessica is indeed working on a new show, but network details have not been finalized at this time.”

Ken Paves, who rode Simpson’s coattails for years, usually insists on doing her hair for major shoots, but most magazines don’t want to work with him because he’s the king of “Texas” hair, charges so much and isn’t considered “timely.” So it came as a surprise to insiders when they saw that Oribe had styled Simpson for this month’s Vanity Fair. Especially as, several years ago when Simpson was a huge star, the magazine had offered her the cover — but she turned them down because they didn’t want to work with Paves. A rep for Simpson said, “[Photographer] Mario Testino insisted on his team, and we agreed. Mario is a genius. The photos are gorgeous and transformative.”

She looks beautiful!

Jessica on the most lucrative part of her career: “The Jessica Simpson Collection is a $400 million business. My mom and I are creative directors. We have hundreds of people working, but nothing gets by us. It’s adorable and it’s affordable. What’s amazing right now, during this recession, is that, somehow, the business keeps growing.”

Jessica on her many on-stage flubs and screw-ups making headlines: “When it comes to media criticism, that’s just something I have had to train myself - literally train myself - to ignore. Because I’m the one up there onstage, and I can feel the energy of the crowd. And I know when I did good. And I know when I did great. And there wasn’t one time on this tour when I felt like I butchered it. I mean, the way people make it sound, I should have never been singing in the first place.”

Jessica on whether Newlyweds caused the demise of her marriage to Nick Lachey: “In all honesty, I believe it did not affect our marriage, Because we enjoyed watching those episodes, and that will always be a time I cherish. It made me understand what marriage is, what love is, what commitment is.”

Jessica on her current relationship with Nick: “I have not spoken to him in years.”

Jessica on her weight being documented by tabloids: “It comes with what I do and I know that every day the media’s going to challenge me, is going to want to bring me down. But I feel like I’m at such a place that I own myself, and it’s authentic. I own that authentic part of myself, and none of those words are harsh enough to make me believe them. I can’t imagine saying some of the things people have said about me about anybody else.”

Jessica on papa Joe Simpson: “If I’m going for advice for anything in my life, I go straight to my father because he has the answers. I can talk to my dad like he’s my manager, and put ‘Dad’ on the back burner. We’ve been doing it since I was 13. So, at this point, we’re in a good rhythm. A lot of people find it strange, but it’s the only way I know. And I don’t care to know another way, because it suits me. And we’ve done a pretty dang good job.”

Jessica on the current poltical landscape in America: “I think it’s definitely time for change. And I am very supportive of our president, and I believe that he’s going to do remarkable things.”

Jessica on being called a jinx on boyfriend Tony Romo’s football career: “Can’t help it. But we don’t let it affect our relationship. If we did, we wouldn’t be together, because it happened at the very beginning. Dating the Cowboys quarterback comes with hype, the fans, the bloggers, but I’ve never dated a guy that was more simple. I’m always there for him after a game, and he knows he has me to come home to.”

Jessica on keeping the faith: “I’m spiritual. I live off the faith that has been instilled in me, that has never left. I’ve never let a stumbling block actually make me fall. We all go through trials, but not one thing has ever made me question God. I have a great relationship with God. I can talk to him, get mad at him, frustrated with him. But, ultimately, my faith is what defines me.”

Jessica on her career crossroad: “There will always be another opportunity, another door to walk through.”

It’s no secret that Jessica Simpson ’s weight has gone up and down considerably over the years, but now the starlet has no excuse for any more fluctuations. The songstress was offered a lifetime membership (complete with personal consultations with doctors and trainers) to L.A.’s swanky star-studded FBE Holistic Health & Fitness, valued at a cool $21,600 per year.

The center’s in-house doctor, Ken Best, already designed a program for Jessica which involves limiting “inflammatory” foods such as bread, gluten, cheese and alcohol and a strict ratio of protein to carbs that he says will enable her to shed around 10 lbs. in the first 10 days. She was also offered an unlimited run of detoxing equipment like the Infrared Sauna and Air Therapy Machine and was advised by Best to take a leaf out of Madonna’s buff-bod book and get on the Whole Body Vibration Machine (we hear Madge has the pricey little device in her private home.)

However, Jessica declined the offer, and according to insiders, Miss Simpson’s body change is just an sign that she’s content and in love.

“Jessica has been spending a lot of time in Texas so her eating habits have changed,” said our source. “And with Tony on hiatus, they’ve been eating out more and just enjoying life together.”

Simpson also hit headlines for a supposed “weight gain” in early 2007 when she was dating John Mayer and critics also pounced when she started to gain a little while married to Nick Lachey while filming “Newlyweds” back in 2004.

“When she has a guy, Jessica just seems to accept herself and stops obsessing over her body,” added the insider.

Who still wears short shorts? Jessica Simpson.

Despite scrutiny over her weight, the singer wore daisy dukes — which she famously flaunted in 2005 while promoting The Dukes of Hazard — at The Kohl Center in Madison, Wisconsin, on Friday.

Simpson seemed in better spirits than a show Thursday night in Grand Rapids, Mich.

She wiped away tears, forgot lyrics and dedicated a song to her sister Ashlee for “when I feel like walking off the stage.”

“Jessica had an off night,” her rep told Usmagazine.com. “She’s a perfectionist and wanted to start some songs over. She always wants to give the best performance for her fans.”

Kim Kardashian is tired of the criticism over Jessica Simpson’s new controversial curves.

“I was doing Super Bowl interviews for my Leather & Laces party I’m hosting down here in Tampa, Florida, and EVERYONE seems to be asking me about Jessica Simpson’s alleged weight gain,” she blogged.

Kardashian continued: “I think it’s absolutely ridiculous!!! She is not fat at all and I am actually offended that people are giving her such a hard time over this!”

The reality star says she’s a fan of the unflattering look Simpson sported at a weekend chili cook-off.

“LEAVE HER ALONE!!! First of all, her outfit was FABULOUS!” she wrote. “I loved that Fendi leopard belt with those high-waisted jeans. She is so drop dead gorgeous, and the fact that the media is sending this message out to young girls is mind blowing!”

Kardashian — who has recently been working out to shrink her famous booty — says she’s “probably twice Jessica’s size, so what do you guys think of me then???”
