Jessica Simpson to Host New Show on Beauty

I came across this yesterday and it just didn't sit right with me. My favorite part of this article is the last paragraph where her friend says she thinks it will be "fun" to try some of the "insane" things people in other cultures to for beauty. Seems a bit ethnocentric (wow haven't gotten to use that word since women's studies!) to me. Other cultures look at some of the things American women do (breast implants, lipo, lip injections) and think we’re “insane.” Jessica Simpson was quite the interesting choice to host this show. We’ll be watching to report back with more juicy feminist critique! Or- perhaps we'll be pleasantly surprised...
