Jessica Simpson almost became an agoraphobic following her divorce from Nick Lachey. Jessica hid away at home after the split and her family feared she would become a recluse because she suffered panic attacks when they forced her to go out.

A source told Britain’s More magazine: “Earlier this year, she started staying home more and more. Her problems developed for a while and got worse after her divorce from Nick. She barely left the house unless she was working. It got so bad she suffered panic attacks. It felt as if the world was closing in on her. Her blood pressure rose, she got dizzy and she actually felt as if she was suffocating.”

But thanks to her family and friends Jessica got her confidence back and she has been stepping out with confidence to attend parties and show off her curvy figure. She should stick to John Mayer but I don’t think he might be the right type for her. But John is known to be with really attractive girls.

Jessica Simpson reportedly gets intimate with her dates over the telephone, in a bid to protect her boyfriends from the paparazzi.

Jessica Simpson was divorced from husband of four years Nick Lachey in June after months of speculation surrounding the state of their relationship.

And Simpson has learning from past mistakes by keeping her new love interests behind closed doors.

She says, “Men must realize if they want to date me they have to do everything over the phone!”

Jessica Simpson has asked producers to pull her portion of a tribute to Dolly Parton at the Kennedy Center Honors out of the upcoming televised show.

Simpson drew unwanted attention earlier this month when she flubbed the words to Parton’s song “Nine to Five” during a taping and grew flustered and fled the stage.

Producers gave her a second chance to sing the song, but after she saw a tape, she requested that the second attempt be pulled from the show, which airs on December 26 on CBS.

Simpson’s spokeswoman Cindi Berger says, “She really wasn’t happy with her performance and she did want it to be perfect for Dolly, who she idolizes.”

The show’s producer, George Stevens Jr. adds, “We appreciate the time and energy Ms. Simpson put into this event and respect the high standards she has for herself and that of the Kennedy Center honors.”

Maybe before singing again, she will actually learn the words. If your making that much money the least you can do is learn to read so you dont look like as ass on stage!
