Jessica Simpson Pregnant Elle Cover: To Be Or Not To Be Dressed?

There’s a fine line between beautiful and… the rest. And almost every magazine cover of Jessica Simpson I see, it’s like a desperate cry for attention (which could be accurate since she’s mainly doing gossip magazines)! And yes, I’m aware that she’s enormously successful with her shoes (and clothing) line already, but Jessica Simpson really loves the spotlight.

And there she goes at it again, flaunting her respectably pregnant body on the cover of Elle Magazine April 2012 (the US edition) as photographed by Carter Smith. The newsstand cover is a SFW version of the subscribers cover, who, in exchange for their loyalty to Elle, they received a clothesless Jessica Simpson in their mailbox. Hurray! Ain’t that a privilege! (congrats to the mom – to – be: Jessica is expecting a baby girl! How sweet!)

So, although the question seems redundant, which is the cover you prefer the most (in this Elle case): Jessica with or without clothes? Because in either one of them, Jess still is quite pregnant, mind you! After all it’s really not about fashion. April is not about fashion, daahlings! It’s about being pregnant and landing an Elle here and a Vogue there (yes Sienna, I’m pointing at you!).
