Jessica Simpson Gets Booed!

Jessica Simpson's first country album drops on September 9, and apparently not everyone is looking forward to it, including the crowd who attended the Country Thunder USA festival on Saturday in Wisconsin.

According to Us Weekly, the blonde bombshell, donning her Daisy Dukes, received both applause and boos from the crowd when she opened for Sara Evans.

"She's an embarrassment to country music," one member of the crowd reportedly told the local paper.

But not everyone had such an averse reaction. "I actually like her country songs better," another concert-goer said. "She has a great voice, plus, she's adorable."

Meanwhile, when Jessica wasn't dodging the hecklers, she was getting personal with the crowd.

"I don't know what your perception is of Jessica Simpson or what tabloid you buy, but I just want you to know that I'm just a girl from Texas," she said. "I'm just like you. I'm doing what I love and dating a boy."

She then went on to dedicate the song "You're My Sunday," to boyfriend Tony Romo.

  • Jessica Simpson bombed last nite at Country Thunder. She got BOOed. She really needs to do herself the favor too and leave country music. Also - why does she always have to attach Romo's name? As if that helps

  • Wouldn't Tony's time be better spent getting ready to play football? His drooling lap dog performance following her around is as annoying as her lack of talent.

  • Well-well country music fans are not as stupid as papa Joe and Jessica think they are. I think Jessica Simpson could care less about Dallas Cowboys.

  • I was also at the show and she was not booed. All things considered she wasn't bad at all. She should have been at an earlier time slot where new artists begin. But I blame that on the Country Thunder organizers.

  • She is about one of the most useless people around. She needs to pay more attention to seeing her kids and taking care of them. She doesnt belong in Country music

  • It's a shame she'll never be truly happy due to her controlling father who sees her as nothing but a product.

  • I read the headlines displaying mixed reviews for Jessica Simpson's performance at Country Thunder. Must say though, I've seen more rehearsed material in elementary school plays and daresay, more talent. I'm still not convinced that her over zealous country patronizing/no more pop will win hearts that aren't already her fans.

  • she should just stick to marketing her name like her products because she is no pop talent and she is no country talent i think this hasn't sunk in with jessica yet she is in denial she is okay singer not as bad as everyone says, but when she's up there with carrie, leeanne, shania, martina, kellie, you can tell she is no singer..."Sorry jessica fans" just stating what alot of people think.

  • She is really pretty and sexy. I love her. LOL. Every time I sign in to the celeb club (((((==== Mixed mingle.c o m====)))), I can see many new topics talking about her. She has created a nice profile for seeking a great man for hook ups

  • I was in one of the front rows of that concert and can say that she never got booed! All I heard was cheers coming from the crowd. I'll admit I had my doubts and was less then thrilled when I heard she was going to be performing, but she held her own and put on a great concert! I will be buying some of her songs when they come out in Sept. Great job Jess!

    As if country music isn't an embarrassment in itself? LOL
