Jessica Simpson Shaves Like a Man

To the left: Jessica Simpson shaving off her “beard” on the May 2008 cover of Esquire Magazine. (It’s the mag’s 75th anniversary.)

To the right: The 1964 Esquire cover that inspired it, featuring Italian actress Virna Lisi. Lisi is now 70-years-old.

Fun fact: Simpson and Lisi were both 27 at the time of their respective cover shoots.

I always suspected she was a transvestite/ transgender. No woman has a jawline like that. Now we have proof! “She” shaves.. ;)

Thats why John Mayer wanted her because she looks like a man. Great timing Jessica, now when Perez proved to the world that he had a night with John while you where there. It’s funny how Jessica is quit about it.

what this says is I was a beard for John Mayer.
She should not say anything in defence of Mayer because the media will tourch her.

Guess Jess had to dress up like a man to please Master John. Since he swings both ways.

jessica looks like a man nihahahaha =))

There are rumors going around that Jessica and Tony broke up. Anyone heard anything like this anywhere? It would have been this past week.

How appropriate. From looking at her, she could easily pass for a dude. Not sure what the point of this photo was. There is nothing feminine about this chick except her double d’s, and even those are suspect.

I to see why John Mayer is attractive to her. She looks like a man so he gets the best of two worlds.

I also see why John Mayer is attractive to Jessica. She looks like a man so he gets the best of two worlds.

Jessica I would be afraid to be with a lover thats a closet gay.

NO SHE IS A MAN!! HA AHA HA HA

I heard that a lot of female stars shave their faces to get rid of peach fuzz. Is that true I wonder? Nothing surprises me anymore, I mean they take fat from their asses and put it in their lips. That’s just straight up NASTY! lol

What else next? The “real” Hulk wears Bra? Bollocks! I can not say anything anymore. By the way, who is Jessica Simpson? Never heard before. Lindsay…who? Unheard of.

VIRNA LISI is a GORGEOUS WOMAN!!!

where are the shots with shaving creme on jess’s bush? that’s what i’m talkin ’bout…

for all of you idiots who don’t get this photo… she has “cream” all over her mouth.. like she just got something “blown” all over her face. you know… white, creamy, maybe a little salty, smells kinda bleachy. duhhh!! you bunch of dolts.

What’s next? Some hairy-chested “he-man” in a bra and thong? Give me a break!

jessica simpson’s shoulders are manly - did the editor put man shoulders on her - the original shot is much, much better

I think the cover is great! Very artsy. Why such haters out there? I am not a fan of Jessica, but I give credit where it’s due. Jealousy is SOooo ugly!

Oh for Gods sake, she doesn’t have a blade in that damn thing. What people won’t make a story out of!

Whats wrong with you ppl? Y can you grow up and accept women no matter how manly or unmanly they look like. Grow up! I think its a very creative pic and Jessica looks beautiful in it. Just cause shaving ur face is a manly thing doesn’t mean a woman can’t pretend she’s shaving her face u idiots. I thought sexism was deadm but maybe some of you still haven’t learned ur lesson

Fun Fact: Virna Lisi had class AND a brain.

Jessica can come shave over my sink any time she wants to. I will ever stand behind her and give her pointers.

I think she is great! She is just proving more the point that she doesnt have to have the approval of others. The opinion of yourself should be the one that matters! Compared to some of these supposidly role model girls out there that are in and out of drug rehab and cant take care of their children and or so anerexic they look like they are about to die i feel jessica is pretty tame! If jessica posing in a magazine and acting like she is shaving is the worst shes done then she deserves some respect! Who cares what she looks like on the cover and i am sure she has her reason own personal reasons for doing it but who are we to throw stones because no one is perfect and i am sure all of us have things we are proud of and ashamed of. Peace, Love and Happiness, cant we all just get along! Hope everyone has a great day and God Bless!

I am tired of the fifties hair. Nostalgia for that period has been over done. Shaving? nothing relevant to today. This is really a sexist shot. in the 50’s and 60’s this was a way to impose a mans world upon a woman. It would have been considered ironic to have a woman trying to do a mans job or wear a mans shirt or pretend to be a man. Not to be cross gender but to try to say they can do the same as a man. Today women work allong men and have no challenges to break the ceiling anymore. I think that this is really nostalgic for an opressed female world. I am a man and a photographer and this does nothing for me. I think Jessica is one of the most beautiful women in the world. Gullible, She should have never agreed with this shot. Jessica doesn’t have to try this hard to get in the public eye and should do more editorial with concepts that revolve around her instead of a magazines poor attempt to get life into thier subscription. Sadly, I think this will boost their sales, but, should be left on the news stand and left for people that have refused to accept the changes that have taken place in our society.
