Ashlee Simpson speaks out about Jessica's weight

From Ashlee's My Space: "Since when did a woman’s weight become newsworthy… I am completely disgusted by the headlines concerning my sister’s weight. A week after the inauguration and with such a feeling of hope in the air for our country, I find it completely embarrassing and belittling to all women to read about a woman’s weight or figure as a headline on Fox News ("Jessica Simpson Shocks Fans With Noticeably Fuller Figure".)"
"All women come in different shapes, sizes, and forms and just because you’re a celebrity, there shouldn’t be a different standard. Is this something you would say to your wife, daughter, mother, grandmother, or even a friend? I seriously doubt it.

"How can we expect teenage girls to love and respect themselves in an environment where we criticize a size 2 figure? Now can we focus on the things that really matter."-Ash

I agree with her initial message, but, Jessica is NOT a size two. Maybe that's the real problem, that she thinks she IS a size two. Stop blowing smoke up my ass by throwing out the "2" every time someone calls yells fatty. You're not Jennifer Love Hewitt, but, apparently, y'all wear the same size. Pffft.

I don't see anything wrong with her "new" figure. At least she looks healthy, not like she throws up after every meal.

Her jeans are too tight and she might want to re-think the Leopard Skin Waist Cincher. She has gained some weight but I think she looks alright. She just needs to adjust her wardrobe to suit her new figure.

Is she retarded? It has ALWAYS been newsworthy Hollywood.

I agree she looks fine, BUT, don't pretend you are a size that you are not. That is why people talk about her Ashlee!! If she is a size 8, 10, 12, who the heck cares as long as she is fine w/ it and doesn't pretend she's a size "0" or "2."

I agree with Mabel. Don't pretend you are a size 2 when you are a size 12, Jess. Just adjust your wardrobe. Squeezing into whatever size you have on in that picture does nothing for you.

The only problem with her new figure is that the clothes she's wearing are causing her to have bulges. It's unfortunate that she sees her worth as being measured by the number on the tag in her clothing. Wearing a size 2 wont make you one & that is just fine.

That outfit doesn't flatter her figure. Maybe she's having a "What was I thinking?" moment now.

Ashlee's comment was redundant. Why repeat the initial thought several times without anything new to add to it? Ashlee needs to worry less about what the public thinks of her sister and focus more on learning to write properly.

It's the outfit...Seriously.

Lord have mercy, Jessica, hire a stylist.

She looks fine - just like a normal girl, but she is not a size 2. Teri Hatcher, Eva Longoria - those are size 2 bodies.

I'm a 4 on the bottom and a size 6 on the top and I am thinner than Jessica Simpson in her recent photos. Not critiquing her, but publicizing that she is a size 2 is just contributing to the negative body image in young women.

She looks HEALTHY, nothing wrong with not looking like a skeleton.

Tony Romo could go to the mall and find ten better looking girls that are less high maintenance in half a day.

Jessica's figure is fine, it's the outfit that is all kinds of wrong. How could that outfit be anything other than a hillbilly barfly costume?
I get the feeling that the real point of Ashlee's post was to stick it to her sister. I think Jessica was always "the pretty one" and Ashlee is secretly loving this. And really, where does Ashlee get off saying this -

"How can we expect teenage girls to love and respect themselves in an environment where we criticize a size 2 figure? Now can we focus on the things that really matter."-Ash

- when she spent thousands of dollars on plastic surgery that completely atered her appearance and made her look like a different person. What kind of message does that send to your tween fans Ash?

She has a stylist - Dolly Parton

Her figure isn't the problem. Her lack of talent & stupidity,is a huuuuge problem!

Asslee is not even worth commenting on.

I happen to like Dolly Parton, her whole image has been very very sucsessfull for her. Jess has a very good voice and talent, but imo having her dad as manager was not the wisest choice. She looks healthy, just the clothes aren't right.
