Jessica Simpson is one of those girls whose career seems to be on a downhill spiral, and it is not one that is moving in slow motion, either. It almost makes one think that her move into the country music genre was a BIG FAT mistake! And if strangers are looking in and thinking this….how can it not have occurred to her by now that she’s going nowhere fast. Her recent flub came from the Country Music Association Awards. The awards are expected to air on December 11th, and Jessica petitioned the CMA’s to see if she could perform for them, and gain some much needed exposure. Their response? Uh, thanks but no thanks…don’t call us….Actually, they were a little bit nicer than that, but that response was probably what was going on INSIDE their head. In fact, they told Jessica that there was simply no room at the inn for her. They didn’t have enough space on the docket for a performance by her I guess, though they DID manage to find room for Lil’ Wayne, Reese Witherspoon, Nicole Kidman, and Hugh Jackman, among many others. The rumor that is floating around though makes this a little interesting. Carrie Underwood, Jessica’s arch-nemesis on the country music scene, is going to be presenting the awards. And yes, Jessica and her have that little issue of Jessica’s current boyfriend being one of Carrie’s past boyfriends, but they also have that ongoing cat fight about the fact that one of them has talent, and the other….just doesn’t. So, instead of performing at the CMA’s, Jessica is booking other gigs as she licks her wounds. Gigs like bingo halls. She just held a ‘concert’ *cough* (term used loosely) at a bingo hall and casino in Arizona, the San Manual Indian Bingo and Casino, a show that barely got half an audience. But Jessica used big words to make the show look a little m ore glamorous:
It’s a very intimate show and it just gives me a chance to stand up on stage and let people know who I am and where I’m at in my life and what I’ve gone through and hopefully be some sort of inspiration to anybody there in the crowd listening.
I’m curious. Just WHAT does she find in herself that is so inspiring to others?? This is a mystery that remains to be seen. But Jessica still insists that despite the CMA setback, the bingo hall gig, and the fact that she was booed and heckled in Twin Lakes, Wisconsin, she STILL wants to make country music for the rest of her life. You know that expression, ‘If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.’? hm well, Jessica, something is DEFINITELY broken here….
