Ashlee Simpson doesn’t like the discussion around sister Jessica Simpson’s weight gain, so she’s blogged how disgusting it is, given Obama was inaugurated last week.

“Since when did a woman’s weight become newsworthy… I am completely disgusted by the headlines concerning my sister’s weight. A week after the inauguration and with such a feeling of hope in the air for our country, I find it completely embarrassing and belittling to all women to read about a woman’s weight or figure as a headline on Fox News”

So there you have it: Jessica Simpson’s weight is off limits because Obama is President. I guess increased consumption of food is good for the economy as well.
