Jessica Simpson Expecting A Baby Girl?

UPDATE-In case you were wondering pregnant star Jessica Simpson wants you to know she looks like a big blob. As the fashion star prepares for the premiere of NBC’s Fashion Star she talked about seeing herself on the show before her baby bump grew.

“I wasn’t pregnant when we shot it. It will be amazing to see myself with a waistline,” said Simpson during a conference call. “I’ll be like a big blob sitting on the couch watching myself thin.”

Great to know she has a sense of humor about her baby weight. Jessica will join Nicole Richie and John Varvatos; supermodel Elle Macpherson, and mentor 14 contestants who hope to become fashion stars.

“Teaming up with this show was a perfect fit,” added Jessica. “I couldn’t turn it down because I felt like it was great for my collection, but it was also important for me to talk to these up-and-coming designers and mentor them and kind of show them the ropes and really try to lead them in the right direction.”

With a fashion empire nearing a billion dollars Jessica doesn’t plan on slowing down, next up is a maternity line. “The point of launching a maternity line, for me, is to do something different. I’m not buying any maternity clothes. I’m wearing all clothes that come in bigger sizes. I really want to make a maternity line that’s comfortable, but really stylish for people, because I believe that we all deserve to feel good and look good.”

In other news, Jessica and her fiance Eric Johnson are reportedly expecting a baby girl. According to a source Jessica and her mom were spotted shopping at LA’s Bel-Bambini boutique. “Jessica and her mom spent over an hour at the store. She took time picking out items and seems beyond happy about becoming a mom.”
