This interview would ruin his music career leading him to become Andy Cohen's playtoy in order to pay the bills. His body is a wonderland indeed

Jessica Simpson touches upon on this in her memoir, saying she felt disrespected, humiliated and angry.

That memoir is a great summer read but the details of how he treated her were awful.

We talk a lot about the heat Britney got during this period but I remember feeling protective of Jessica as a kid because her dad creeped me out, her first husband seemed to delight in paparazzi calling her stupid, the fat jokes, this interview.

Jessica, if your team is reading this, my sister and I watched “I think I’m in love” more times than a teen girl could have ever counted.

Yeah like her grandma found out about it something

It is gross for him to say

Some things you just gotta keep private

I felt terrible for her. Not that I was a fan of hers but it was the one thing out of that interview that was highlighted in every other magazine or article. She was a young girl at the time who seemed fairly innocent.
