Jessica Simpson: Down-Home and Downloaded

Jessica Simpson Amanda Eckard/CMA

Jessica Simpson's week got off to a rough start when her live performance on Good Morning America suffered a technical malfunction. But things are definitely looking better right now.

Not only is her debut country album, Do You Know, the most downloaded album on iTunes since its release yesterday, but a source reveals to me that it’s expected to hold the top spot on the retailer's site for the entire week across all music genres.

If that bears out, that means she'll likely be knockin' down Young Jeezy and his recently released Recession from No. 1.

"I'm not surprised," says one music-industry insider, who is not affiliated with Simpson. "It's country, and it's Jessica. It makes sense."

Simpson's promotional push continues tomorrow with visits to The View and David Letterman followed by the CBS Early Show and Rachael Ray next week.
