Dolly Defends Jessica on Weighty Issue

Jessica Simpson had been a target, and for the life of me I don't understand why. She's a beautiful young lady and currently at a normal weight. I never resort to criticism unless it's constructive. Too many young girls are unhappy with their bodies. Young girls and teens don't realize the psychological or physical dangers of the super-thin bodies they desire. They view pictures of the unrealistic body images of Keira Knightley, Victoria Beckham, Mischa Barton, Paris Hilton, ...so many others.

There are celebrities that are obsessed with themselves. Long before Dolly Parton confirmed it...I had a gut feeling that Jessica Simpson was a sweet, loving and (dare I say it) caring individual. I believe she is the genuine article. Jessica IS the person you should encourage your young daughters to look, as a role model. That said, I can only imagine the stress of touring. Eating easy, fast and comforting junk food. To keep healthy and her stamina up, I hope Jessica can add salads, fish, lean meats, fresh vegetables and fruit. It's most likely a luxury, being able to eat healthy while 'on the road'. Again, what is wrong with having a 'normal' body? Why are we accepting women with protruding bones as 'perfect'? Making good food choices to maintain health is important for everyone.

Okay, constructive criticism. Jessica has an average voice. She lacks the depth in range of a fine singer. Perhaps, a vocal coach (or a new one) or maybe over time, the more she sings...her vocal range will improve. One thing, this lady is out there singing her heart out...trying her best. I respect people like that.

In conclusion, Jessica will lose weight for the media and the public outcry, to whatever they 'deem' acceptable. Sadly, she's been hurt (I believe everyone is in agreement upon this) and perhaps while alone, shed some tears. We're human...let's remember she is.

HEY! Don't pick on anybody at all because of weight gain. THAT'S A REALLY RADICAL IDEA! Some people have genetic things going on, others have physical problems like chronic low blood sugar (opposite of diabetes) and they have to eat even if they are fat -- there's a shocker -- fat people get hungry and even NEED to eat. Grow up America.

Jess is stunning...keep running your mouths haterzzzz that WISH they looked like her and lil Boyzzzzzzzzz that know they would never stand a chance!~ hahahahahahaha.

Aol headline writers are at it again!!! The story has nothing to do with Dolly "dissing" Jessica S. I thought it rather strange that someone would report Dolly as disrespecting anyone. She is a lady of the first degree. Shame on AOL. This is what has become of journalism...false headlines created by minimum wage writers.

I personally think that girls with a more curvy body are more fun to hang out with . They aren't usually so wrapped up in themselves to point of being pain's in the azz when out with friends or on a date. Skinny minnies need constant validation that they're attractive/desirable. At least from my experiences. And let's face it, a lot of thin girls are quite sleazy. They think being thin gives them the okay to dress/behave like street walkers. Wether thin or not, just be real and not stuck on yourself to the point of rediculousness.

The very minute anyone responded to this story -validation was given, yet again, to the idea that real ,common sense American's give a rats rump about something so completely shallow and idiotic. And that the notion of a 'perfect' body is at all realistic or worth a second of consideration. They toss out the bait, we bite. And so it goes....

Yeah...so um why does everyone care about her weight again? I was attempting to read actual news and happend to notice one particular story that was bitching about how much wieght she was gaining and on the same damn page talking about how someone else was too skinny. Pretty freaking stupid, it's like nobody is good enough these days.

I'll help her work off any unwanted weight.

I listen to jessica simpson but ive heard her live. This girl does NOT have real talent and when you cant sing or dance or play an instrument you better look good. and she doesnt.

Aw c'mon folks - leave the girl alone. Unlike some other entertainers who look like they'd blow away in a strong wind, she's healthy, she's nice, and she's still gorgeous!
