Sources close to Jessica Simpson say that although she once strayed away from her true self to live a life of a glamor and fame, she is only now finally finding herself again! OK! Magazine reports:
"Back in the day, Jessica thought she was going to be the next Julia Roberts," a source close to the singer tells OK!. "The media attention went to her head and she became a different person."
No doubt! At the 2007 Costume Institute Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC, Jessica was virtually unrecognizable with dark hair, a darker spray tan and a skimpy Roberto Cavalli gown. She had a trendy boyfriend on her arm — John Mayer — and a group of hangers-on who traveled everywhere with her.
"Her entourage grew as her ego grew," says the source, "and then the bubble burst. She realized she lost herself, but now she is starting over."
Jessica's second act, which includes her just-released single, "Come on Over," has been warmly welcomed by Nashville, mostly because she is working so hard to make her country career work.
"The country community is accepting of artists who are serious," GAC's Country Music Across America host Storme Warren, who introduced Jessica at the CMA Music Festival Block Party on June 4, tells OK!. "Jessica has done it right.""

Yea, right, Jessica Simpson is just "finding herself." HA! It's more like she realized that she wasn't talented enough for huge fame and now she's trying like hell to get something going on the country scene just so she can stay relevant. Sorry, but the truth hurts!
