Sucks to be Jessica Simpson

Jessica Simpson attempted to kick-start her country music career this weekend at the Thunder Festival in Twin Lakes, WI, but her performance was met with boos from the unsatisfied audience.

She strutted onto the stage in Daisy Duke shorts, a white button-down shirt and cowboy boots as she sang a cover of Nancy Sinatra’s “These Boots are Made for Walking.”

Her set included several cover songs, such as Willie Nelson’s “On the Road Again,” and Shania Twain’s “Who’s Bed Have Your Boots Been Under?”

She also belted out songs featured on her upcoming album called “Do You Know,” including the single “Come On Over.”

To the disappointment of many audience members, she also sang one of her pop hits “With You.”

“Just because she’s dating Tony Romo it doesn’t make her country,” said Mike Rodriguez. “She doesn’t fit in with country, and I’ll have to drink a lot of beer to sit through her concert.”

“She’s an embarrassment to country music,” he added.

One man summed her performance up in a single word: “It’s crap. She doesn’t belong here.”

If you’re just dying to get a taste of Jessica’s country flavor, her new disc is scheduled for release September 9.
