Jessica Simpson and her weight..

Considering the challenges he is facing, Obama is certainly a very important man at this moment in time, but who is selling paper and getting the search engines buzzing? It is Jessica Simpson and the unflattering pictures that are making the headlines. She has, indeed, put on some weight, but nothing very tragic. Only just, America is raving about those few extra pounds. Some celebrities stand up to defend her, the New York Post attacks her with disgraceful caricatures, some blog criticize her, some other praise her,...
With all the difficulties that America is facing, I wonder why so much energy is spent on a problem that is, after all, far from being important, especially since as a singer, Jessica Simpson isn't supposed to be scrawny. We expect her to have a voice of gold and a tasty figure as long as she is in good health!
