Wow! Jessica Simpson Is Getting Fat!


Jessica Simpson stepped on stage at a chili cook-off looking much fuller-figured. So is Jessica Simpson letting herself go and getting fat? After stepping on the stage a chilli-cook-off looking a bit heavier than usual, media reports of Jessica Simpson gaining weight ran rapid through the media. Reports surfaced saying "Jessica has gained to a size 16 after years of hard diets and exercise." and witty comments were made saying "Jessica Simpson has apparently been enjoying her “game snacks” while watching boyfriend Tony Romo of the Dallas Cowboys".

But why do we care so much if a celebrity gains weight? Many of us fluctuate in weight and if someone of ordinary stature gains weight its not regarded as a major deal. With more than half of America overweight why does the public demand that our celebrities have absolutely flawless figures? One reason may be because we hold celebrities in such high regard and put them on such a pedestal that we have unrealistic expectation for them. We forget that they are human, just like us and because we treat them like Gods and Goddesses we expect them to be perfect.
