Jessica Simpson : I've Always Struggled With My Body
On her first post-breakup magazine cover, Jessica Simpson opens up to Glamour Magazine about her relationships, body image, and her new VH1 reality series, The Price of Beauty. Check out some highlights from the interview which took place before her highly-publicized split with Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo.
On relationships: "I don't regret anything I've gone through.. I don't know what the future holds, but I hope that my life, as it is now, doesn't change. I'm very happy and comfortable-it's a great place to be in. If this article comes out and we're not together, I'd still love [Tony], and he'd still be a huge part of who I am today."
On body image: "It's not fair that women look in the mirror and feel disgust because of what society has made them believe about beauty. I've been through it myself and understand the pressures. We're all facing the same struggles together, whether you're a celebrity or not."
On her divorce:"It was hard to imagine I would ever walk down the aisle again. It was like a death in the family: You go through the mourning stage, then the rebellion, and then all of a sudden you have to find life by yourself. Once you do that, you feel complete-and that's the only time you can truly fall in love again, and give yourself over completely to another person."
On the legacy she'd like to leave behind: "[My ex] Tony said, 'Jessica, at the end of your life, the only thing that's going to flash through your mind and heart is your husband, kids, family and the people you love. You're not going to think, I wish I'd done this with my career. And I'm not going to remember how many touchdown passes I threw or if I won the Super Bowl.' Music is the heart of who I am, and it's the most personal thing that I do."
On her future plans: "I'm never going to be a woman who doesn't work. At 12 I was emancipated from my parents so I could sign my first record deal. I think I was born working!"
The magazine arrrives on newsstands August 11.
