It seems like Jessica Simpson has been a bit off the radar lately. We haven’t heard a new song from her in a long time, she is not exactly the talk of the tabloids and who cares about her new relationship? However, this may be a bit harsh – at the beginning of the 2000s, you couldn’t get her off your TV or radio. Her show with ex-husband Nick Lachey Newlyweds was huge and her first few records got her a lot of spins on the radio.
Now, it seems like Jessica has begun focusing a big portion of her time and energy into her fashion line, which may be the biggest celebrity line in the world. According to Monsters & Critics, Jessica’s fashion line stands to make $1 billion dollars this year:
“The 30-year-old looks like she will reign over the fashion world by becoming the first ever celebrity to have a clothing line that will earn one billion dollars in its annual sales. Her range raked in $750 million dollars in sales last year, making it the top selling celebrity clothing empire. The star launched her Jessica Simpson Collection in 2007 with a line of shoes, handbags and boots. She has since expanded it to include other items such as clothing and cosmetics, which are all sold in big department stores in the US.”
I know I’ve mentioned Jessica’s fashion line and accessories like western style handbags in this blog before, but I had no idea that she was as popular as she is. The clothing line is a true revelation to a girl who started her career by confusing tuna fish and chicken on MTV. I’m not sure what Jessica’s cut will be of the projected $1 billion take this year, but I’m sure it will make up for her tanking music career.
