Congratulations, Jessica Simpson!

Monday August 8, 2005
Jessica Simpson is proof of the power of reality TV. Let's face it. Before she signed up to have her life taped for MTV's Newlyweds: Nick and Jessica, the singer's career was going nowhere. She was on the C-list of pop princesses and America wouldn't have cared if she was starring in her first movie. What a difference a reality show makes! Thanks in part to Jessica's Newlyweds popularity (even months after the show went off the air), her first movie, The Dukes of Hazzard opened at No. 1 at the box office this weekend. The fun flick earned $30.5 million, according to early estimates. Congratulations, Jessica!
