Pregnant woman gains weight! Jessica Simpson, chicken of the sea, "concerns" for health

Do you remember all the fuss the time this picture came out?

"Jessica Simpson is FAAAAT!" shrieked every celebrity gossip source in print and online media.  Well no, she wasn't.  No she wasn't fat at all.  She was wearing a pair of hideous jeans and she wasn't stick thin but that was about it.  She has massive knockers which tend to overbalance her figure and make her look bigger.

However since then Jessica has regularly been snapped in a variety of unflattering poses with resulting similar uproar.  She likes junk food, she seems to put on weight easily and then lose it again - BIG DEAL.  She's currently in talks with Weightwatchers to become their US spokesperson in a deal which would net her a lot of cash (reportedly around €4 million), so she's turning it to her advantage.

But the latest pictures of her weight gain are nothing short of - I hesitate to lend this more gravitas then it deserves -  so I'll just say, totes ridic.  Amid a lot of hysteria that she is DAMAGING THE BABY by PUTTING HERSELF AT RISK OF DIABETES, eating Pop Tarts with butter on them or something I had a look at some of the pictures of her.

She's absolutely huge in the baby bump department it's true.  Some women are though and some just get away with a neat little bump.  Jessica's not one of them.  Here she is at six months .

 The baby's due in April apparently and here she is again last week with her fiance and his mother.  She's reported to have put on around 40lbs (lets put this in perspective Mila Jovovich put on 70lbs), so why the baby police are "concerned" about her "alarming" weight gain is beyond me.

So huge big bump, she's put on weight, but er she looks quite normal to me?  Not "virtually unrecognisable" as InTouch reported her to be.  Just fecking leave her alone.  Get back on her case if you must when she's had the baby and is the face of Weightwatchers - but cut her a break for now.

What do you think?
