EMILY BRONTE, duck! JESSICA SIMPSON set to wield pen to hone literary ambitions. NO Chicken of the Sea says she when one ponders erudite wordplay.
Desperate to ditch her “dumb blonde” reputation, Jessica has decided to become an author!
After her movies, such as “Employee of the Month” bombed, the 33-year-old now has zero interest in a return to acting, say sources. So she’s decided on another, more sophisticated, career. And in a bid to hone her literary skills, she’s been reading classic American novels.
“Jessica is mortified that she’s still widely regarded as a bimbo,” said an insider. “She’s proven herself as a successful fashion designer, witty TV host and weight-loss guru. But no matter what she does, it’s as though people only see her as a busty dingbat.”
