Yesterday, Jennifer Aniston assured everyone she's OK with all her man troubles in Elle's big September issue; now it's Jessica Simpson's turn in Glamour.

Sure, the mag held the interview before the big Barbie breakup, but Jess still managed to address it:

"If this article comes out and we’re not together, I’d still love him, and he’d still be a huge part of who I am today."

Now what would a Jessica Simpson interview be without some talk of the Nick Lachey divorce and body-image issues? Nothing! Which is why this interview covers all those bases...

Her 2006 divorce was like death:

"It was hard to imagine I would ever walk down the aisle again. It was like a death in the family: You go through the mourning stage, then the rebellion, and then all of a sudden you have to find life by yourself. Once you do that, you feel complete—and that’s the only time you can truly fall in love again, and give yourself over completely to another person."

And the media sucks for making women feel bad about their bodies:

"When I was young, I would look at magazines and feel a lot of pressure. As a child of 12, I would write things in my journal like, 'I'm lying here and all I can think about is that my stomach is hanging over my underwear.' That disturbs me even today!...I absolutely, 100 percent do not agree with how the media has made everyone [body] obsessed. And they do have the power to do it."

That's it—all you need and expect from Jessica Simpson. Maybe there's something more interesting on her Twitter?

"I just woke up from a dream where I was told that if I ate a meatball sub I'd have to pee all day. Why would I dream that? I had to pee."

We guess that works?
