Jessica Simpson On The Cover Of Glamour
Jessica Simpson is in the new September 2009 issue of Glamour magazine where she open up about past relationships, future plans, body image, and her legacy.
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 comfortableit'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 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 stages, 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 again, and give yourself completely to another person."
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 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!"
