Ali Larter Biography News Profile Relationships Photo Gossip Wallpaper Video.

A former teen model who segued into acting in her early 20s, Ali Larter's fresh look enabled her to play high school students for the first few years of her screen career. After turning heads in "Varsity Blues" (1999), and the blockbuster teen horror films "Final Destination" (2000) and "Final Destination 2" (2003), Larter had a brief flirtation with big screen comedy before establishing her calling card in roles as strong, nurturing women in extraordinary situations. She reached new heights with her ensemble role in the acclaimed sci-fi drama series "Her s" (NBC, 2006- ), where she initially played a single mother with a split personality. While her first character was written out of the series, Larter was transformed into an aspiring politician with the power to manipulate water. She was an especially popular draw for young audiences, proven by nominations at the Teen Choice Awards. Larter ventured into more adventurous roles with two thrillers, "Resident Evil: Extinction" (2007) and "Obsessed" (2009), which successfully positioned her as a film star for all audiences - one capable of successfully embodying both hero and villain nude wallpaper.Boyfriend, hot Ali Larter.
Born on Feb. 28, 1976 and raised in the suburb of Cherry Hill, NJ, Larter was the daughter of a homemaker mother and an executive father who worked for a trucking company. The baby of the family, she traded in her childhood penchant for sports and tomboyish pursuits at the onset of her teens, in favor of commercial acting and modeling across the river. An association with New York's famed Ford Modeling Agency at age 14 allowed the young Larter a chance to appear in publications like Seventeen and to do extensive traveling to places such as Australia and Japan - the latter of which served as the location of her first overseas shoot at the age of 17. With enough success in the industry, Larter eventually made a decision to eschew her senior year of high school in favor of a burgeoning career as a model.
By 1996, following a stint modeling in Miami, FL, Larter had decided to make the leap to Hollywood in an attempt at an acting career. She was encouraged in this new pursuit by a friend and fellow model-turned-actress, Amy Smart, whom she had met while on a modeling job in Milan. She enrolled in an acting class and fell in love with it. That year, she was also offered a unique modeling job for Esquire magazine, one which even came with its own backstory. Appearing on the November cover as the fabricated rising "star" Allegra Coleman of its lead article, "Hollywood's Next Dream Girl: The Allegra Coleman Nobody Knows," Larter's serious Hollywood profile caused quite a stir, prompting appearances on several national morning talk shows including ABC's "Good Morning America" (1975- ).
With some early heat on her almost fictional entry into Hollywood, Larter landed an agent and found work quickly, putting in legitimate guest appearances during the first half of 1997 on the NBC sitcoms "Suddenly Susan" (1996-2000) and "Chicago Sons" (1997). In what seemed like perfect casting, she was attached to a previously-written movie script called "The It Girl," about a fictional magazine model personality similar to the one she portrayed in Esquire. That project stalled, but, not content to merely serve as a pretty face, Larter opted to mix things up and the following year by adding some drama to her resume. First, she appeared on the CBS medical series, "Chicago Hope" (1994-2000), before wrapping up 1998 with a pair of episodes of The WB's teen drama, "Dawson's Creek" (1998-2003).

In 1998, Larter and Smart auditioned for the same role in the MTV Films teen sports drama, "Varsity Blues" (1999). Larter nabbed the role, but Smart was cast shortly thereafter as well, portraying James Van Der Beek's girlfriend. It was Larter's first film role, but in a genre populated by attractive twenty-somethings, she established herself as anything but an arbitrary presence. An instant, sexy impression was forged with viewers when her character, Darcy Sears, seduced Van Der Beek's with a makeshift bikini shaped entirely from whipped cream.
The now very memorable Larter was starting to land more speaking parts with some regularity, culminating with a lead role in the remake of "House on Haunted Hill" (1999). She was then cast as a lead in the cast of "Final Destination" (2000) - a moody thriller about a group of plane crash survivors stalked by Death itself - a film franchise that became a modest success. Larter then returned to comedy, playing a legal client in the Reese Witherspoon vehicle, "Legally Blonde" (2001), just as the film rocketed its star into leading lady status. That year, she went east and stepped onto the stage to appear in an off-Broadway production of "The Vagina Monologues." Retaining her East Coast state of mind, she was also tapped by director and fellow Jerseyite Kevin Smith to be part of a sexy trio of thieves in "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back" (2001).
Although Later was enjoying her work, she was becoming less of a fan of Los Angeles and the hard knocks it took to make it in the business. After taking some time off midway into 2002, she decided to exit Hollywood and reassess her career goals, planting roots in Manhattan. Still, it seemed Tinseltown was willing to follow her lead. She was working less fervently and choosing projects more sporadically, but the studios remained fans. She was offered top billing to reprise her role as Clear Rivers in "Final Destination 2" (2003) before landing a supporting role in the big screen romantic comedy, "A Lot like Love" (2005), starring Amanda Peet and Ashton Kutcher.

In 2005, a rejuvenated Larter journeyed back to Los Angeles. The first audition she gave, for a primetime television pilot, was a hit with producers. The show, fortuitously, was NBC's "Her s," which began airing in the fall of 2006. Larter, who could walk on either the troubled or the sweet and sexy side onscreen, returned to television to play both and became a household name when the show - about ordinary people discovering their own super gifts - took flight as a surprising phenomenon. As Niki, a loving, single mother whose personality is shared with one of violent Hulk-like brutality named Jessica, Larter found an opportunity to sink into one of the hit series' most complex roles. During her stint on "Her s," Larter continued to develop a film career, first battling evil in the ravaged world of the successful sci-fi thriller "Resident Evil: Extinction" (2007). From the post-apocalyptic future, she went back in time to play the prehistoric woman in an ingenious caveman's dreams in "National Lampoon's Stoned Age" (2007), which was released straight to DVD.
After her leading role as an American B-movie actress stranded in India in the limited release, "Marigold" (2007), Larter took a few years off from the big screen to recover from her breakout year. When she returned to the "Her s" set for the third season, she found that her character Niki Sanders had been written out of the series. Instead, the actress portrayed Tracy Strauss, Sanders' aspiring politician sister who possessed the power to turn anything into ice and herself into water. The twenty-something still proved to be a teen draw with a pair of Supporting Actress nominations and one win from the Teen Choice Awards. She returned to theaters with a starring turn in the profitable, but critically reviled sex thriller "Obsessed" (2009), where she played a temp office worker who stalks her married boss (Idris Elba).

Debbie Gibson Biography News Profile Relationships Photo Wallpaper Video.

BORN: August 31, 1970, Long Island, NY
Full name: Deborah Ann Gibson
Confirmation name: Marie
Religious denomination: Catholic
Date of birth: August 31, 1970
Place of birth: Brooklyn, New York
Education: Sanford H. Calhoun High School, June 1988
Marital Status: Single

Deborah Gibson started her career at a young age. She got experience in theater by playing roles in plays like "A Christmas Carol", "Annie" and "Mickey Mouse and Friends". At age 12, she started songwriting seriously. She was part of the Metropolitan Opera for several years, doing opera's like "Hansel und Gretel", "La Boheme" and "Le Rossignol", some of which meant singing in a foreign language.Deborah got her first recording contract at age 16, for a 12" aimed at the dance market. Late 1986, "Only in my Dreams" was released, a song she had written three years prior. After it became a hit, 6 months of hard work performing at various clubs later, she recorded her first album, titled "Out of the Blue". It went triple platinum, just like her second album "Electric Youth", which was released in January 1989. With the song "Foolish Beat" she set a record: she became the youngest artist in chart history to have written, produced, and performed a Number 1 song.
After Deborah's third album, "Anything is Possible", she made her broadway debut as Eponine in the musical "Les Miserables". She continued her efforts in theater by appearing as Sandy in the musical "Grease" on London's West End for a period of nine months, shortly after she had released her fourth album "Body Mind Soul". Her fifth album, called "Think With Your Heart", once more showed her abilities as a songwriter, musician, singer and producer. It contains mostly ballads with Deborah playing piano, accompanied by an orchestra.

Deborah played Betty Rizzo in the National Touring Company of Grease. She was part of the cast from October 29 1995 through March 3 1996, touring through the USA and performing in 19 different cities in a usually sold out theatre. Deborah recorded her sixth album, "Deborah", in the summer of 1996, after which she starred as Fanny Brice in a brief revival of the musical "Funny Girl". She continued showing her passion for theatre by playing Belle in the Broadway musical "Beauty and the Beast" for nine months, followed by starring as Gypsy Rose Lee in the Papermill Playhouse production of Gypsy, playing the narrator in the US touring production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, and the title role in the US touring production of Cinderella.

On March 6, 2001, she released her seventh studio album, titled "M.Y.O.B. (Mind Your Own Business)".
Besides her own career, she has written and/or produced material for several other artists (Chris Cuevas, Ana, the Party, Jobeth Taylor) and regularly participates on 'various artists' albums benefiting charities. She surprised many, including her own fans, by singing backup vocals for a song on the last Circle Jerks album.
Deborah has an upbeat, caring, open-minded, ambitious and family-oriented personality. In her career she has always had the support of her family. Her mother, Diane, is also her manager. Her sisters have also helped from the start by doing things like designing her stage-outfits, sound engineering and running the fan club.
She supports several charities, among which are the Pediatric AIDS Foundation, the Make-A-Wish Foundation and St. Mary's Children & Families Foundation. The latter is a home for abused, orphaned and/or neglected children. Deborah's father, Joe Gibson, has spent several years there. After listing those causes, it should come as no surprise that Deborah is very fond of children. She hasn't got any of her own yet, but has stated that she definitely wants several children, of her own as well as adopted.

Debbie Gibson became a pop phenomenon in the late '80s, scoring a string of hit singles when she was only 17. Although she was still a teenager, Gibson showed signs of being a talented pop craftsman, capable of making catchy dance-pop in the style of Madonna, as well as lush, orchestrated ballads. Gibson's time at the top of the charts was brief, but it was quite successful, producing five Top Ten singles, including two number ones, and two multi-platinum albums.

Gibson began writing songs in her early childhood, taking piano lessons from Morton Estrin (who also taught Billy Joel) from the age of five. At the age of six she wrote "Make Sure You Know Your Classroom," but it was "I Come From America," which she wrote at age 12, that earned wide recognition for her talents. "I Come From America" won 1,000 dollars in a songwriting contest, prompting her parents to sign a management contract with Doug Breithart. Breithart helped Gibson learn several instruments, as well as teaching her how to arrange, engineer, and produce records; she would record over 100 of her own songs by 1985.
While she was still in high school, Debbie Gibson signed with Atlantic Records and began recording her debut album with producer Fred Zarr. "Only in My Dreams," her debut single, climbed to number four when it was released in the summer of 1987. It was followed in the fall by the dance-oriented "Shake Your Love," which also peaked at number four; the single also became a hit in Britain, reaching number seven. Out of the Blue, her debut album, was released in the fall of 1987, and by the spring of 1988, it had reached the American Top Ten. The title track became a number-three hit that spring and it was followed by her first number one single, "Foolish Beat," making her the youngest artist ever to write, perform, and produce a number one single. Following the success of "Foolish Beat," Gibson graduated from Calhoun High School in Merrick, NY, with honors. "Staying Together," released in the fall of 1988, didn't perform as well as her previous four singles, stalling at number 22. By the end of 1988, Out of the Blue had gone triple platinum in the U.S.

"Lost in Your Eyes," the first single from her second album, Electric Youth, became Gibson's biggest hit early in 1989, staying at number one for three weeks. Electric Youth, released in the spring of 1989, also hit number one, spending five weeks at the top of the charts. However, her popularity began to slip by the end of the year -- "Electric Youth" just missed the Top Ten and her next two singles did progressively worse, with "We Could Be Together" unable to climb past number 71. At the end of 1990, she released her third album, Anything Is Possible; it peaked at number 41. Two years later, she released Body Mind Soul, which produced only one minor hit single, "Losin' Myself." After its release, she starred in a production of +Les Miserables. Gibson returned to pop music in 1995, recording a duet of the Soft Boys' "I Wanna Destroy You" with the Los Angeles punk band the Circle Jerks and releasing a considerably softer album of her own, Think With Your Heart, which marked a departure from the dance-pop that made her famous. What You Want was released in fall 2000. M.Y.O.B. followed in early 2001, and Colored Lights: The Broadway Album two years later.

Electric Youth, released in the spring of 1989, also hit number one, spending five weeks at the top of the charts. However, her popularity began to slip by the end of the year -- "Electric Youth" just missed the Top Ten and her next two singles did progressively worse, with "We Could Be Together" unable to climb past number 71. At the end of 1990, she released her third album, Anything Is Possible; it peaked at number 41. Two years later, she released Body Mind Soul, which produced only one minor hit single, "Losin' Myself." After its release, she starred in a production of +Les Miserables. Gibson returned to pop music in 1995, recording a duet of the Soft Boys' "I Wanna Destroy You" with the Los Angeles punk band the Circle Jerks and releasing a considerably softer album of her own, Think With Your Heart, which marked a departure from the dance-pop that made her famous. What You Want was released in fall 2000. M.Y.O.B. followed in early 2001, and Colored Lights: The Broadway Album two years later.

Detroit Tigers
Granderson became the Tigers' starting center fielder for the 2006 season after beating out then teammate Nook Logan for the position during spring training. From the start of his major league career in 2004, Granderson had the longest errorless streak by a position player to start his career since Dave Roberts went 205 games from 1999-2003. He ended up hitting 2 home runs during the playoffs.Granderson is considered one of the nicest players in the Major Leagues. On Easter Sunday 2007 Granderson pulled out a bag filled with over 100 autographed Easter eggs filled with candy and passed them out to young fans in Kansas City. Although Granderson was not listed on the 2007 All-Star Game ballot, due to the Tigers' decision to put Gary Sheffield as an outfielder on the ballot, he still received 376,033 write-in votes, the most write-in votes for any player in the Majors.
Granderson was named the American League Player of the Week on July 16, 2007, the first time he had won the award. During the week ending July 15, 2007, Granderson hit .500 (8-16) with two doubles, a triple, and a home run. Granderson slugged .938, drove in two runs, scored seven runs, and had fifteen total bases during Detroit's four-game series at Seattle.On August 7, 2007, Granderson became only the second player in franchise history to have at least 30 doubles, 15 triples, 15 home runs, and 10 stolen bases in a single season when he hit a double in a game against the Tampa Bay Devil Rays. The other Tiger to accomplish this feat was Charlie Gehringer in 1930.

Granderson hit his second inside-the-park home run in his first at bat against the Yankees on August 26, 2007.On September 7th, 2007, Granderson became the 6th member all-time of baseball's exclusive 20-20-20 Club. Granderson joined the 20-20-20 club with Kansas City's George Brett (1979), Willie Mays of the New York Giants (1957), Cleveland's Jeff Heath (1941), St. Louis' Jim Bottomley (1928), and Frank Schulte of the Chicago Cubs (1911).On September 9th, 2007 Granderson stole his 20th base of the season and joined Willie Mays and Frank "Wildfire" Schulte as the only players in major league history to reach 20 doubles, 20 triples, 20 home runs, and 20 stolen bases in a season, a feat since accomplished by the Philadelphia Phillies' Jimmy Rollins. Schulte was the first to accomplish the feat in 1911 while playing for the Chicago Cubs and Mays did it in 1957 with the New York Giants.
In 2007, he hit .302 with 23 home runs, and was 26-for-27 in stolen base attempts. He was one of only 6 batters in the AL to have at least 20 home runs and 20 stolen bases, along with Alex Rodriguez, Gary Sheffield, Ian Kinsler, B.J. Upton, and Grady Sizemore.

Triples
Curtis Granderson has become one of the premier triples hitters in all of baseball during the 2007 season. Through 154 team games Granderson has 23 triples which leads all of baseball. The American League and Detroit Tigers record is 26 triples, a feat achieved by the all-time triples king, Sam Crawford, in 1914. Granderson is the first player since 1949 to manage at least 23 in a single season. It is also worth noting that only 10 of his triples were at home despite the fact Comerica Park has seen more triples since it opened in 2000 than any other ballpark in baseball. Through September 25, 2007 Granderson's 23 triples is more than some entire teams have managed - the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, Chicago White Sox, Seattle Mariners, Toronto Blue Jays, Oakland Athletics, St. Louis Cardinals, and Cincinnati Reds, all have no more than 23 total triples.

Awards and accolades
* American League Player of the Week (July 9-15, 2007)

Broadcasting career
Uncharacteristic in sports broadcasting, TBS employed Curtis Granderson as a color commentator alongside Cal Ripken, Jr. and Frank Thomas for its coverage of the 2007 baseball postseason games as an analyst of some aspects of the game; in his case, largely baserunning and outfield defense. Ordinarily the commentators are retired players or players near the ends of their careers... but Granderson had only two full seasons of major league baseball behind him and three altogether.
Trivia
* Granderson said on a local Detroit interview that one of his best MLB moment was a ninth inning home run against Cincinnati Reds pitcher David Weathers. The home run tied the game and the Tigers went on to win on an error by Reds shortstop Felipe Lopez. The game was played at Comerica Park on Saturday, May 20, 2006 to a sell-out attendance. * During an August, 2006 game an ESPN shot revealed that Granderson had written the words "Don't Think, Have Fun" on the underbill of his cap. * After visiting London in the off-season, Granderson is now a British baseball favorite, with Britain's Channel 5 baseball show MLB on Five now including a segment called "Granderson Watch", taking over from Weaver Watch (after Jeff Weaver got a World Series ring). The segment involves Curtis answering weekly emails and occasionally appearing live over the phone. * According to a Detroit Free Press article one of Curtis Granderson's hobbies is spending a lot of his spare time on the internet. Curtis says one of his favorite sites is youtube.com * Curtis Granderson (0-for-13), Iván Rodríguez (0-for-11) and Plácido Polanco (0-for-10) were the first group of three teammates, each with 10-or-more at-bats, to go hitless through the first three games of a World Series. * As of November 2007, more Facebook users have named Graderson as their Tiger in the Who's Your Tiger application than any other player. * Granderson often has 1990's West Coast Rap played as entrance music for each at-bat at Comerica Park. This includes "Bad Intentions" & "Nuthin' But A G' Thang" by Dr. Dre or "2 of Amerikaz Most Wanted" by 2 Pac & Snoop Dogg.

Camilla Belle Biography News Profile Relationships Photo Wallpaper Video.

From a prolific childhood acting career in family entertainment and made-for-TV movies, Camilla Belle went on to become a star with edge-of-your-seat teen date offerings "When a Stranger Calls" (2006), and "The Quiet" (2005). But Belle simultaneously cultivated art house street cred with a mature performance opposite Daniel Day-Lewis in "The Ballad of Jack and Rose" (2005), even as she rocketed into "It" girl status playing a cave woman in "10,000 B.C." (2008) and a psychic government operative in the sci-fi thriller "Push" (2009). A radiant but natural beauty who avoided the trappings of young Hollywood, Belle entered her twenties with a string of dramatic, multi-dimensional leading characters - including the Virgin Mary - that suggested the actress had a long and promising career beyond multiplex entertainment.Camilla Belle hot nude picture collection.
Born Camilla Belle Routh in Los Angeles on Oct. 2, 1986, Belle was named after actress Renata Sorrah's character, Camila, on the Brazilian soap opera "Cavalo de Aço" (1973). Belle headed immediately for the spotlight herself, landing her first modeling gig for a national print ad at the age of nine months.
The ambitious youngster segued smoothly into acting, appearing in minor roles in television movies such as "Trouble Shooters: Trapped Beneath the Earth" (NBC, 1993), "Empty Cradle" (ABC, 1993) and "Deconstructing Sarah" (USA Network, 1994). After a supporting role in the direct-to-video family feature "Annie: A Royal Adventure" (ABC, 1995), Belle hit the big screen playing a fellow orphanage-dweller of the beloved literary character "A Little Princess" (1995) in Alfonso Cuaron's 1995 remake of the 1939 film classic starring Shirley Temple. The young actress found steady work with roles in "Poison Ivy 2" (1996) and the Jimmy Smits' vehicle "Marshal Law" (Showtime, 1996), returning to theaters in her first major studio film, Steven Spielberg's "The Lost World: Jurassic Park" (1997). In the Nicole Kidman/Sandra Bullock chick-flick "Practical Magic" (1998), Belle had a plum role as the young version of Bullock's character.
Meanwhile, Belle attended the elite, all-girls Marlborough school, taking time off to play Steven Seagal's daughter in the HBO thriller "The Patriot" (1998). In her downtime, Belle studied classical piano and became actively involved in charities, including becoming an international spokesperson for "Kids With a Cause," a program created to provide help for children suffering from poverty, hunger, neglect and abuse. She was in her late teens when she landed her next major film outing, starring in the critically acclaimed indie, "The Ballad of Jack and Rose" (2005), as the commune-dwelling daughter of a single father (Daniel Day-Lewis) whose nontraditional family lifestyle leads to complicated relationships. The same year, Belle portrayed another non-conformist teen in the dark ensemble comedy "The Chumscrubber" and took first billing in the campy horror thriller "The Quiet," where she played a traumatized teen taken in by relatives who shakes up her adopted household.
In 2006, the actress finally got a profile boost when she was cast in the remake of the 1979 slasher classic "When a Stranger Calls (2006), in which she gave an appropriately sympathetic portrayal of a young babysitter being harassed on the phone by an unknown killer who is closer proximity-wise than she knows. The film opened at No. 1 at the box office. The 20-year-old acting veteran went on to star as a kidnapped cave girl opposite Steven Strait in Warner Bros. "10,000 B.C." (2008), a critically lambasted but money-making prehistoric epic directed by Roland Emmerich and starring many a computer animated dinosaur. "Push" (2009), a sci-fi thriller about a group of paranormally gifted subjects trying to overthrow the government agency that controls them, was similarly dismissed by critics but also failed to bring in big box office. That year, the low-key, spotlight-shunning actress uncharacteristically wound up in the gossip blogs when she was spotted at a number of events with teen heartthrob Joe Jonas, after having appeared in a music video of Jonas' pop band, The Jonas Brothers.
Amid rumors about relationships with Jonas and "Twilight" (2009) heartthrob Robert Pattinson, Belle began to break away from broad genre pics with a starring role in Bruce Willis' directorial debut "Three Stories About Joan" (2009), a romantic drama co-starring Owen Wilson and Kieran Culkin. In 2010, Belle was a surprising casting choice to play the title character in "Mary, Mother of Christ" (2010), a historic chronicle of the life of Mary co-starring heavy-hitting thespian Peter O'Toole and Jonathan Rhys Meyers.

Jessica Simpson was born in Abilene, Texas and raised in Richardson, a suburb of Dallas, Texas. Jessica Simpson is the daughter of Joe Truett Simpson ( a former Baptist youth minister ) and Tina Ann Drew ( a former Sunday School teacher).She has a younger sister, Ashlee, who launched her own music career in mid-2004. Jessica Simpson started singing at the age of twelve as a part of her Baptist church choir. At t
he same age, she made an unsuccessful application for The New Mickey Mouse Club, which starred fellow pop singers Christina Aguilera, Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake, among other future stars.
 
Jessica Simpson attended J.J. Pearce High School in Richardson, Texas. She was discovered singing at a church camp by a head of a small contemporary Christian record label and recorded an album over the next three years; however, the label folded before the record could be released.She dropped out in her senior year in order to tour and promote her demo album, which was funded by her grandmother, Joyce (thus the reason for the name of her 2004 holiday album, ReJoyce: The Christmas Album); she later earned her GED.During this time, Jessica Simpson toured with the Christian Youth Conference circuit performing with Kirk Franklin, God's Property and CeCe Winans. She and her father sold copies of the album after her performances.
Tommy Mottola of Columbia Records obtained a copy of the album and, thinking Jessica Simpson had potential as a pop singer, signed her as such. Christian influences can still be found in much of her music. Jessica Ann Simpson was born on July 10th, 1980 in Texas. Jessica is the oldest of two girls born to Tina and Joe Simpson. She was raised in the Dallas area with her sister Ashlee Simpson. Jessica was brought up in the Baptist faith and sang in her church as a child. During this time she also tried out for the Mickey Mouse Club, but was not chosen due to a poor audition. The show went on to cast Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, and Justin Timberlake.Jessica attended Richardson North Junior High and then J.J. Pearce High School in Richardson, Texas. She was a cheerleader and very involved in the school's drama program.

While singing in a church summer camp, she was discovered by a Christian music label. She was signed to a record deal. For young Jessica, this was a dream come true. She worked for three years on her debut Christian album, however, the label folded and her album was never released. Her grandmother then put forth the funding in order for Jessica to have a demo album. Jessica dropped out of high school her senior year in order to pursue her music career. (She would later get her GED.) She toured with the Christian Youth Conference and shared the stage with Christian music greats God's Property, CeCe Winans, and Kirk Franklin. Jessica's father, Joe Simpson, would help her sell her demo albums after the shows.

Jessica caught the attention of Tommy Mottola from Columbia Records, who signed her to a record deal. He had heard Jessica's demo album and thought that she could make it big in the pop world. Her first album, Sweet Kisses, was released in 1999. This album was certified double platinum. Her single, "I Wanna Love You Forever" reached #3 on the Billboard Hot 100 songs. This was Jessica's first Top 10 hit. The single also was a success internationally, garnering Top 10 status in several European countries. In 2000, she was offered a role in the film "Coyote Ugly" but she turned it down.
Jessica stayed close to her Christian roots during the initial releases of her album. She dressed much more conservatively than her pop star counterparts. However, with the release of her second album, "Irresistible," Jessica began to show more of a sexier image. The title single, "Irresistible," contained somewhat suggestive language and even showed Jessica questioning her famous decision to remain a virgin into marriage. This change in image was largely due to the influence of Tommy Mottola. Although Jessica had been successful with her first album, he had been disappointed with the results. He felt that Jessica had the ability to be competitive with Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera, but the image was holding her back. He decided that Jessica needed to lose a little weight and dress sexier, both in her videos and while out in public. The "Irresistible" video is the first one to show this side of Jessica, and she is rumored not to be too fond of it. While she gained some new fans, she alienated some of her early fans who looked up to her as a Christian role model.

The next year Jessica married her long time boyfriend, Nick Lachey. The two met in 1998 when they both performed at a charity event. Nick was there to perform with his group, 98 Degrees. For her wedding, Jessica wore a beautiful strapless beaded Vera Wang gown. She carried a stephanotis bouquet that was made up of 500 stems and took the florists over twelve hours to make. After the wedding, Jessica wrote a book called, "I Do: Achieving Your Dream Wedding." The book included details regarding her own wedding to Nick as well as tips on how readers could plan their own wedding. Jessica and Nick also agreed to star in a MTV reality show, entitled "Newlyweds: Nick and Jessica."

It was this reality show that shot Jessica into superstardom. Although it had a somewhat slow start, the show soon became a smash hit, and Jessica and Nick became household names. She was often portrayed in the show to be a dumb blonde, but Jessica's mother told Vanity Fair magazine that Jessica's IQ is 160, which would put her in the genius category. The show was a ratings winner for MTV. It averaged 1.4 million viewers per episode. Along with the reality show, she also released her third album, "In This Skin." The album debuted at #10 on the charts and wasn't selling well. However, after "Newlyweds" became successful, radio stations began to play her second single, "With You" frequently. Jessica capitalized on that success by releasing a music video that parodied some of her "blonde moments" on "Newlyweds." A second version of the album was released, with several new tracks. It shot to #2 on the charts and sold 150,000 copies in one week. The album ended up selling over 3 million copies in the United States alone. Jessica also appeared on "That 70's Show" three times between 2002 and 2003. In addition, Jessica won three 2003 Teen Choice Awards.

In 2004, Jessica released ReJoyce: The Christmas Album, named for her grandmother who had funded her demo album. It was certified gold. Also that year, Jessica and Nick had a television special, "The Nick and Jessica Variety Hour." Jessica released a line of beauty products called "Dessert" which featured lotions and body sprays in flavors such as "cupcake" and "candy." She earned the distinction of being chose as #1 on Maxim magazines "Top 100 Hot List." She also went on her "Reality Tour Live" which was a series of concert dates which featured footage from "Newlyweds." The show was opened by Ryan Cabrera, who was romantically linked to her sister, Ashlee. The tour was also released on DVD.

Filming on "Newlyweds" wrapped in 2005. Later that year it won a People's Choice Award for Favorite Reality Show. Jessica also appeared as Daisy Duke in the motion picture "The Dukes Of Hazzard." It debuted at #1 in the United States. Her cover of Nancy Sinatra's "These Boots Are Made For Walkin'" appeared on the soundtrack. It hit #14 on the Billboard charts and won a People's Choice Award for Favorite Song from a Movie. Jessica appeared in multiple television commercials related to her work on this film. She was named one of People's 50 Most Beautiful People of 2005.

Although Jessica was enjoying public success, her personal life was in trouble. In November of 2005, Nick and Jessica separated. The next month she filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences. Jessica purchased her own home in Beverly Hills for $3 million dollars. The divorce was finalized in June of 2006. The couple sold the house made famous in the "Newlyweds" series to "Malcolm in the Middle" star, Justin Berfield. Jessica did not let her divorce slow her down, however.

Her fourth album, "A Public Affair," was released in August of 2006 on Epic Records. Jessica was credited with writing 10 of the 13 songs on the album. The video for "A Public Affair" was full of celebrities including Ryan Seacrest, Andy Dick, Christina Applegate and Eva Longoria. Jessica released a second single "I Belong to Me" on her website and later added to her CD. Jessica did a poll on her website to determine what her second single should be. "I Belong To Me" received over 14,000 votes, beating out the other five possibilities. In October, Jessica's second movie project, "Employee of the Month" was released. The film stars Dane Cook and Dax Shepard. Jessica started filming her third film "Blonde Ambition" with Luke Wilson in November of 2006. The film is expected to come out in theatres in 2007.

During filming of Employee of the Month, Jessica was rumored to have dated Dane Cook and Luke Wilson during early filming of Blonde Ambition. Her current boyfriend is singer John Mayer. The couple appear to be very happy together. Jessica's one true love is her dog Daisy, who she is often seen carrying with her while out and about. Daisy is a Maltipoo, which is a mix between a Maltese and a Poodle. Jessica also loves the movie "Pretty Woman" starring Julia Roberts, hot pink roses, and Mexican food. She's a big fan of sour skittles, vanilla ice cream and chicken-fried steak. She drives a 2005 Mercedes Benz SL500.

Jessica is very involved in charity work. She serves as Operation Smile's International Youth Ambassador. Operation Smile works to help children with facial deformities receive surgery. Jessica also has been involved with the USO, which provides entertainment to American troops stationed throughout the world. She's traveled to visit the troops in Pakistan, Afghanistan, Oman, Germany and Iraq, as well as visiting several ships which were stationed in Southwest Asia. She also toured military bases and provided screenings of "The Dukes of Hazzard" to military members in the United States.
There have been some rumors that Jessica might be recording an album with friend Liv Tyler. Jessica is planning to start work on another film soon, which will be in theatres sometime in 2008. Filming for that movie will begin in June and is titled "Major Movie Star." Jessica was scheduled to begin filming "The Witness" in June but filming has been pushed back. As for her plans for the future, Jessica had indicated a desire to adopt a child.

Jessica's hard work and perseverance have paid off and now she is considered one of the top female pop singers in the United States. You may find more Jessica Simpson News here and we also have a Jessica Simpson Forum for you to enjoy.
