Jessica Simpson Checks Into “Fattening Hut”
As Jessica Simpson travels around the globe to film her reality show, The Price of Beauty, it seems that she is learning to handle the criticism and media blows when it comes to her beauty and her body. Her father Joe Simpson recently told Us Magazine that filming the new show has been good for Jessica because since she is always under scrutiny it is good for her to see how other parts of the world view beauty. For example, while visiting in Uganada the beauty ambassador there knew about Jessica’s struggles with the media and the two talked about how beauty comes from within, it’s not what is on the outside. Joe explained,
“In Uganda, we sat in a fattening hut because, in Uganda … fat is beautiful. So the bigger you are, the more beautiful you are. She was with a girl who had been in a hut preparing for her wedding for two months and 25 days on a 5,000 calorie-a-day diet.”
Wow, that would definitely change your views on beauty. In addition, Joe was asked if he has given his 29-year-old daughter any advice on how to handle the media when it comes to her weight and he said that he no longer needs to do that anymore because she is ‘wise.’ But Joe did mention that it’s frustrating for Jessica and sister Ashlee Simpson because the world tells them who they are instead of knowing who they are.
“The girls are wonderful kids who have so much to offer, and as a father, the greatest frustration in the world is that people are told who they are instead of knowing who they are,” he said. “So the hardest thing for me as a parent is to say that’s not who my child is; you don’t know the girl because she’s the same girl she’s always been.”
Still no word on when The Price of Beauty will air so be sure to check out VH-1 for more details.
