Well Jessica Simpson couldnt get a magazine cover as a singer even though she a good voice, but being dumb gets her this...

Not that Im complaining because she Looks HOT but it is supposed to be a magazine about music, oh well I guess RS gave that up about 20 years ago.

Very nice!

Does anyone else see this magazine spread as sexist, degrading and disempowering? It's sad looking at her parade around in panties holding a vaccum cleaner. Is this 1953? Not only is she objectified, she's subjugated to domesticity and stripped of her autonomy.

I swear to god that everytime I see a pic of her, I think she looks like a man (well, her face anyway). She looks like Ricky Martin with make-up and a wig.

I know what you mean. Did you see her on Larry King a couple of weeks ago? That hair-do was down right scary.

JANFAN4L said:

I agree 110%!!! Those damn panties are sexist, degrading, and disempowering. She should remove them this instant!!! And she should take her top off too whiles she is at it. Her tight Tee shirt offends me.

No I missed it. God, I can just imagine how that interview went though.

Believe you, me, if Rolling Stone could, they would! :-O

This has to b a fake, right? I mean...i can see how this picture COULD HAVE BEEN sexy, somewhat controversial (see JANFAN4L ), and double-entendre. But now it's simply a hideous picture. STRANGE!

Jessica Simpson was already objectified, subjugated to domesticity, and stripped of her autonomy before she landed a rolling stone cover. Ever watch that show of hers?
BTW, what's that red crap on her forehead?

Rolling Stone covers nowadays are basically softcore porn (Justin, Britney, MARY KATE & ASHLEY OSLEN!!, Christina, etc., etc. -- also what's up with all the pop acts on the cover? Where's Outkast and all the rap groups dominating the charts.) The only person this year I didn't see buttnaked on the cover of the RS was Ruben Studdard...and maybe Clay Aiken. LOL.

yeah. Is that a prop or something? Looks like she either has an SDT >> or just got smacked with a wire-hanger .

I was thinking more along the lines of red applesauce or something...

The fact that CLAY or RUBEN or any of that American Idol crap could make a cover of any Music Magazine shows why the Music industry is about a year away from crashing and burning. People buy music now like they buy sneakers, flavor of the moment until someone comes out with a different brand that looks better. Sure there is some good music out there, but for every Norah Jones we get 10-20 shit artists, for every 1 good RB group we get 25 that sound alike (jagged edge, ruff endz etc) for every maxwell we get 25 RB singers like Usher. And for the last 15 years Labels dont back artists anymore, if u sell 100,000 of a record u are dropped even if U are the a great band, 20 years ago the Label would back u and work for a talented artist, not anymore. Look at a band Like the JAYHAWKS, a great band, they get dropped after every album basically despite a loyal following and sell out shows. I think its time to get rid of playlists and to get rid of video stations, they all suck, MTV doesnt have any morals, MTV2 is getting worse by the minute, Vh1 is almost as bad as MTV, so lets pull the plug and tear up the playlists and see what happens to music.

I don't mind seeing the music industry crumble. It's time that music be back in the hands of musicians.

Being dumb also gets an ABC sitcom!
