Jessica Simpson “Contemplating Taking a College Course in Religion”
Jessica Simpson wants to be more religious.
“I’ve been contemplating taking a college course in religion. I love religion,” she says in January’s Marie Claire.
Simpson, whose father Joe is a former Baptist minister, adds, “I remember whenever the book The Da Vinci Code came out, the Discovery Channel did this three-night piece on it that I Tivoed and then watched eight times.”
What else inspires the singer?
“I am the first person to go to Barnes & Noble and buy the new self-help book,” she confesses. “I like to fill out the surveys, then I get my friends’ opinions on how I answered to see if I was being honest with myself or not.”
Simpson recently credited beau Tony Romo with helping her “calm down.”
“He is a good guy,” she told Ellen DeGeneres on her talk show. “And he’s really just helped me along in life and taught me a lot about being comfortable being myself.”
Romo is the “whole package,” she said.
“I’m not organized and he’s not organized either,” said the star, “but [he] does make me want to be organized for us.”
