Dance-pop singer Jessica Simpson
was born and raised in Dallas,
TX, beginning her performing
career as a member of her church
choir; at 12, she also auditioned
unsuccessfully for The Mickey
Mouse Club. While attending
church camp the following summer,
Simpson was discovered by the
head of a tiny CCM label, spending
the next three years recording
her debut album; the label folded
before the record could be released,
however, although a small pressing
was eventually funded by her
grandmother. The teen nevertheless
became a hit on the Christian
Youth Conference circuit, also
sharing bills with Kirk Franklin,
God's Property, and Ce Ce Winans;
seeking to expand her popularity
in the secular market, Simpson
signed to Sony, touring in support
of boy-band sensations 98°
prior to releasing her 1999
major label debut Sweet Kisses,
which launched the smash "I
Wanna Love You Forever."
A second studio effort, Irresistible,
appeared in spring 2001. Despite
the MTV coverage of the album's
title track, Simpson's sophomore
effort didn't fare as well as
her first album. The following
year, Simpson married her longtime
boyfriend, 98° crooner Nick
Lachey. She also went on to
appear in several episodes of
That 70s Show, but it took Simpson
until summer 2003 to become
a bona fide celebrity. She and
Lachey's MTV-produced reality
show, Newlyweds, captured countless
moments of the couple's first
year of marriage. Simpson's
third album, the much more mature
In This Skin appeared in July.
First single "Sweetest
Sin" was a moderate chart
hit, but thanks to the success
of Newlyweds, Simpson's teetering
career got a second chance.
A second single "With You"
was a favorite among the MTV
crowd and by spring 2004, In
This Skin was rereleased. It
included reworked versions of
Berlin's "Take My Breath
Away" and Robbie Williams'
"Angels" as well as
additional footage from the
first season of Newlyweds. Jason
