Jessica Simpson: Fan-Friendly in NYC

Jessica Simpson: Fan-Friendly in NYC

Taking some time to sign a few autographs, Jessica Simpson was spotted out in New York City yesterday afternoon (October 19).

The “Come on Over” songstress looked snazzy as she stopped to greet some fans, sporting a black coat, black boots, and black sunglasses.

According to a report, Ms. Simpson is being advised to drop her father/manager Joe Simpson in favor of a new, more industry-savvy agent.

A source leaked, “Jess is really talented, it’s clear that what’s holding her career back is her father. Joe is impossible to work with and makes terrible decisions that poor Jessica has to put up with. Now, both music and movie people are telling her she needs to let him go.”

“But Jessica just can’t find it in her heart to let him go. She knows how much Joe loves being a manager. His entire identity is about being her manager, plus he has made a lot of money from her at the same time.”
