Jessica Simpson’s Curves Torpedoed Her Christian Music Career
Jessica Simpson’s career as a secular pop star might never have happened if she were flat-chested. She developed at age 13, and though she was attempting to sing Christian music for the spiritual benefit of churchgoing audiences, she made pastors nervous. “I had very big boobs at a young age and it kept me from a lot of things in the church,” she told The Mirror in 2004. “I couldn’t sing solos because supposedly the men lusted when I would get up there. I was a teenager in overalls, and I didn’t even really know what sexy was. But they were telling me I was too sexy to sing.”
