Ashlee Simpson Denies Baby Weight Claims
Published Monday, 1st September, 2008 at 10:14 AM
Ashlee Simpson has hit back at negative claims in regards to her weight-gain during her pregnancy.
It was reported by The National Enquirer that the singer burst into tears when she discovered she had gained more weight than she should whilst carrying a child, and that she had also bought six pairs of size zero jeans as an incentive to shed the pounds.
However, Ashlee has now responded by posting a message on her MySpace blog, saying the claims are completely false:
"Today I read on a blog that I went to the doctor and he said I was overweight and I cried and went to Planet Blue (because I was blue) and bought 6 pair of size 0 jeans. Now it is ridiculous to read such nonsense about oneself so I thought I would address this one..."
"1. My doctor says I am right on target with my weight gain
2. Have not been to Planet Blue in at least two years
3. Love my maternity jeans ..they have stretchy tops it is awesome!
4. My closet full of size 0's are being worn by Pete right now and he looks hot in them :)"
"So now that I have cleared that up let me tell you... carrying a child is the most inspiring, emotional, amazing experience of my life."
"My weight and my pant size are the absolute last thing I am concerned about. I am only concerned with having a healthy pregnancy and a healthy baby. People who talk and judge pregnant women's weight need to get a life!!!"
