Jessica Simpson - A Public Affair (Sony)
Released - August 29, 2006

Oh, please. Fun is fun.

Trash Ms. Simpson if you like, but you secretly turn up the radio when this one is on.

I know you do. And you run in to watch the video when it comes on.

Even my son - who detests Hilary and Britney - thinks this one is just plain fun.

And it is. There's nothing deep, no message other than turn it up and dance.

Or tap your foot. Or something.

The title track - I've already said a thing or two about. The rest of the disc is really more of the 120-beats-per-minute same. There are a couple of slower pieces, and yeah - if you listen to the lyrics real hard, what you'll hear is a big "up yours" to former hubby Nick Lachey.

I bought mine at iTunes early, so I got the free video.

With Eva Longoria, Christina Applegate and Christina Milan.

Oh. And Andy Dick.

Yeah. It's worth it.

Shut your pie hole, and buy the album.

You know you want to. You'll put the top down, and play it loud.

Highly Recommended.

Three and one-half microphones (out of four)
