What’s going on over her knees in Pic 2? It looks like she has super-long knee-highs…is it my computer resolution or a faulty pic? Not that I actually really care. My worthless–and untested–opinion is that if I were paid big huge bucks to look super-hot, I would value my millions enough not to get to this (Jessica Simpson’s) point. But the fact remains that if she were an ordinary girl on the street, she would still never pay for a drink at any bar in America, so I feel badly that she’s catching so much heat for gaining a little weight and making unfortunate wardrobe decisions. ---

I think something is casting a shadow on her knees in pic #2 ---

Personally, I just love how absolutely _bored_ everybody looks in all those pictures. ---

I’m just entertained by the fact that everyone acts like there’s something wrong with _her_, while \*they’re \*taking her weight gain as some sort of personal insult or personal triumph. That’s way too much emotion to invest in Jessica Simpson, IMO. ---

Those shorts are just a little too long to be called Daisy Dukes, IMO. She is an incredibly cute girl, no matter what she weighs. ---

Much better than the mom jeans. Those were terribly unflattering. I blame this whole stupid flap on the mom jeans. Really. A) she’s not fat and B) she didn’t gain 20 pounds overnight - it took her wearing a bad outfit before anyone even noticed at all! ---

I may be the only one but I prefer the new improved curvy JS. _Wrowr!_ ---
