I Just Can't Do It

No matter how much a fan I am of train wrecks, I just can't seem to make myself actually press the button which will allow the sounds of Jessica Simpson's new song to hit my ears. I honestly think I would prefer listening to one of Michael Lohan's sermons than listening to Jessica Simpson sing country. Oh, I think it will sell ok. I mean she does have a marketing genius for a father. Oh, I still abhor him, but he is good at what he does. I just don't like to think too far beyond the basics when it comes to him.

The whole Tony Romo thing is great marketing. The whole maybe she sleeps with everyone and maybe she doesn't thing is good stuff. She sells sex well, and with her dad feeding her lines, she even makes it sound like country is where she has always wanted to be.

"I grew up in Texas, and country music was what I listened to. I always wanted to make a country album, but I wanted to wait until the time was right."

The fact that when she was breaking out in pop that she always said she listened to pop music growing up is probably just a misquote. And as I've said before, if anyone had actually bought her last album, the time for country still wouldn't have happened. But she'll be out at the county fairs this summer, faking smiles and wearing those daisy dukes while dad hopes for a down blouse photo that he can sell to the tabs to pick up some pocket change. With all that being said, I still just can't c-l-i-c-k.
