Jessica Simpson Biography

Jessica Simpson is one of the best singer/actors in the world today. She has made a number of songs that have climbed very high in the Billboard Top 100 Charts and has starred in blockbuster movies.

Simpson was born in Dallas, Texas on July 10, 1980. Her first attempt at making it as a young singer was at the age of 12 when she tried out for the Mickey Mouse Club and made it to the finals but could not win (She lost to Brittney Spears and Christina Aguilera). Simpson didn’t quit though and returned home to sing church and gospel music. She was originally signed by Proclaim Records after an executive their heard her voice, but as she continued to sing, she attracted thousands of fans of both church and pop music and grabbed the attention of many big time music executives including Tommy Mattola, who worked with Colombia Records. She signed with Colombia and by 1999, her first album, “Sweet Kisses” which featured hits including “I Wanna Love You Forever” and “I Think I Am In Love With You”, made her one of the most popular young singers in the United States.

She then went on tour with 98 degrees where she would meet her future husband of three years, Nick Lachey before her second album, "Irresistible", was released in 2001. The title track became another huge success.

Simpson was now known virtually everywhere and starred in a reality show with her husband Nick Lachey on MTV. Lachey and Simpson were married in October 2002 and signed a deal to star in “The Newlyweds” on MTV in 2003. That same year she released her third album “In the Skin”. Jessica even appeared on a number of Late Night television shows and could be seen in dozens of advertisements for many very well known companies. Her sister, Ashlee Simpson, also launched a music career at this time and enjoyed success. Jessica made her debut on the Silver Screen in the 2005 blockbuster movie “The Dukes of Hazards” and was ranked as one of the hottest women alive in Maxim Magazine. Things were looking good; however, in November 2005, her relationship had some rocky times and she and Nick Lachey publicly announced their divorce plans.

Regardless, it now seems as if the former couple has moved on and both Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey continue to record new songs and have a bright future ahead of them.
