Jessica Simpson has a new man in her life, TMZ reports.
The star began dating ex-49ers tight end Eric Johnson in May, and a source tells TMZ that the couple are “very happy.”
This isn’t the first NFL player Simpson has been romantically linked to. The blonde songstress dated Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo, but the pair parted ways in July 2009.
Simpson is currently working on another season of her VH1 show “The Price of Beauty,” among other commercial projects.
She’s started up her own fashion line especially for shapely women, saying: ‘By now I know what works if you’re curvy.’
But here’s hoping her latest ensemble doesn’t feature in the range.
The 29-year-old singer arrived at Los Angeles Airport yesterday wearing an incredibly unflattering pair of cropped khaki trousers.
The ill-fitting design, which she teamed with strappy wedge heels, a black T-shirt and denim jacket, pulled in all the wrong places and did her figure no favors.
It’s not the first time Jessica has struck out in the wardrobe department.
Last year the Dukes of Hazzard star famously wore an ill-advised pair of high-waisted ‘mom jeans’ at the Country Chili Cookoff in Florida.
It put the former size zero star’s weight under scrutiny and sparked a huge furore.
But she shrugged off the criticism and has just unveiled the Jessica Simpson Jeanswear Collection.
She already has shoes, handbags, swimwear and fragrance items on the market.
As well as working on her new line, Jessica is also busy on rumor patrol.
The star last week hit Twitter to address reports she’d had a consultation with a plastic surgeon.
She sparked speculation she was planning to go under the knife after she was pictured outside a medical centre – which includes a surgeon’s office – in Beverly Hills.
But she tweeted: ‘True – went to the doctor yesterday. False – plastic surgery.’
Actor Jack Nicholson has proved he’s still a ladies’ man – by asking buxom pop star Jessica Simpson on a date.
The Shining star has been linked to a number of actresses and models over the years, including Lara Flynn Boyle, Anjelica Huston and Michelle Phillips, and has fathered six children with different women.
But the Hollywood Lothario hasn’t slowed down since turning 73 last month – he’s reportedly invited 29-year-old singer Simpson to join him for an evening together.
Simpson, who declined the offer, tells Britain’s The Sun, “I have no idea how Jack got my number as we’ve never met. He asked if I wanted to go to his Beverly Hills house for dinner.”

The singer-and-actress – whose weight has fluctuated over the years – is now in the shape of her life after employing fitness trainer Danny Musico who created an exercise regime just for her.
Former professional boxer Danny – who also trains Leonardo DiCaprio, Justin Bieber and Jessica’s dad, Joe Simpson – said: “She’s getting leaner and told me she went down three dress sizes. She’s pushing herself to new levels. She’ll run for three minutes as fast as she can, then rest for 30 seconds, then box for three minutes and so on.
The High Definition Training combines boxing, cardio and weights and Jessica is enjoying every moment of it.
She told In Touch Weekly: “It’s a 60-minute, interval-based workout. The best part is the punching – it gets a lot of aggression out!”
Jessica – who is fronting her own show ‘The Price of Beauty’ – and Danny try to meet four times a week but he admits her busy schedule sometimes proves a challenge.
He said: “With her clothing line and getting ready for another season of ‘The Price of Beauty’, it’s hard to find the time. But when she’s at the gym, she always gives 100 per cent.”
Jessica Simpson recently made headlines when she told Ellen DeGeneres that she only brushes her teeth three times per week for fear they will become “too slippery,” but could it be that the songstress, who appears to have flawless pearly whites, may have been telling tales for shock value?
“(Brushing only three times per week) is what she told Ellen, but that isn’t what she tells me,” Simpson’s Beverly Hills-based dentist, “Extreme Makeover” star, Dr. Bill Dorfman said.
And if Simpson, who is also the spokeswoman for charitable organization “Operation Smile,” honestly only brushed every couple of days, it sounds as though she would have already had to deal with some serious troubles by now.
“If you don’t brush your teeth, bacteria sits on your teeth and your gums. Not only does it cause bad breath but it can cause de-calcification on your teeth which are those white spots, but it also causes gingivitis which is where the gums become inflamed,” Dorfman explained. “Then that progresses to periodontitis, which is a gum and bone disease. That’s really dangerous, people don’t realize it but there have been a lot of studies that show a really close correlation between periodontitis and an increase in heart disease, stroke, pre-term birth and diabetes. There are a lot of systemic problems that can arise as a result of not brushing your teeth.”
Yikes.
Simpson also told DeGeneres that despite her careless oral hygiene habits, she “always has fresh breath” – but let’s just hope she stays far from the mints because otherwise she really might be single forever.
“The worst thing you can do for your teeth is suck something like Altoids, which are sugar-coated, all day long because then you are just bathing your teeth in sugar. That sugar is feeding the bacteria and the bacteria produce acid and the acid eats into your teeth,” Dorfman continued. “I once had a patient that was working in real estate and decided she wanted fresh breath all day long she sucked Altoids. Within one year, she needed 14 root canals.”
“Remember your smile is the first thing people notice,” he added. “I would say all celebrities and people being photographed should take meticulous care of their teeth, that’s part of their image. People think if they just brush their teeth then they’re doing a good job, but you need to brush and floss. You’re leaving behind some of the most damaging bacteria in between your teeth if you don’t floss.”
