Jessica Simpson country crossover fails, possibly has sex tape

Jessica Simpson's country music crossover hasn't been as successful as she and her record company might have hoped, despite her breasts working overtime to promote it. Not being a country music connoisseur I'm no judge, but her single seemed okay. Frankly I can never forgive her for sampling John Cougar Mellencamp on that song, or covering 'Take My Breath Away'. The eighties should have been left in the 1980s, please!

While I'm ambivalent at best about her music, it seems that country music purists have strong opinions following her debut at the Country Thunder Festival, sharing the bill with Carrie Underwood and Miranda Lambert.

I don't know what your perception is of Jessica Simpson or what tabloid you buy, but I just want you to know that I'm just a girl from Texas; I'm just like you,' Simpson told the crowd, according to the Kenosha News. I'm doing what I love and dating a boy.'

High-profile boyfriend and Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo may not have been there to comment, but concertgoers were quick to offer their opinions of Simpson's show.

I actually like her country songs better,' Mary Grace told the newspaper. She has a great voice, plus, she's adorable.'

In addition to her own material, Simpson reportedly sang country covers including Willie Nelson's On the Road Again' and Shania Twain's Who's Bed Have Your Boots Been Under?' But she didn't win over everyone.

I just don't hear the country in her,' said Adam Matos, from Arlington Heights, Ill. I don't hear the twang. She's not good enough to be here.'

Mike Rodriguez of Lake Geneva, Wisc., seconded that opinion.

Just because she's dating Tony Romo it doesn't make her country,' he said. She doesn't fit in with country, and I'll have to drink a lot of beer to sit through her concert.'
