Eminem is known for saying exactly what he feels, but even he thought twice before lampooning Jessica Simpson in his latest video. In the video for “We Made You,” a heavy Simpson lookalike eats a hamburger and gyrates in her daisy dukes with a Tony Romo lookalike.

“Tony Romo is one of my favorite quarterbacks,” Eminem tells Detroit’s Metro Times. “So I felt kinda conflicted doing the Jessica thing.”

The original plan was to have a slender Jessica Simpson lookalike in the video. “When I say, ‘Jessica Simpson, sing the chorus,’ we were gonna have a chick who looked like Jessica Simpson come out and sing,’ he says.

As the video was shooting, Simpson’s curvier figure started making headlines, prompting Eminem to change the video. “But then Jessica got fat,” he says. “I mean, not really fat but she certainly got fat for … well, Jessica Simpson got fat for Jessica Simpson!”

In the interview, Eminem says that his singles are “little time capsules of what’s going on in pop culture right at that moment.”

Sometimes, the little time capsules can ruffle some feathers. Nick Cannon recently wrote a scathing blog entry directed at the rapper over comments he made about Mariah Carey. It wasn’t the first time that a celebrity has tangled with Eminem; he has a history of high-profile feuds.

Still, he prefers historical accuracy over some occasional hurt feelings. “I’ve always wanted people to be able to look back at each video and go, ‘Oh, remember what was going on at that moment!’ ” he says. ” ‘Oh, that’s when Jessica Simpson got fat.’ And even if she gets thin again, that’s fine. But for that moment in time, she was fat.”

Gemma Arterton and Ed Westwick will play Cathy and Heathcliff in Ecosse Films’ adaptation of Emily Bronte’s “Wuthering Heights.”

Project has also seen a number of cast changes. Natalie Portman was originally tapped to play the role of Cathy. Scheduling conflicts saw her exit the project before being replaced by Abbie Cornish. Arterton will now play the iconic romantic role after producers opted to go younger with the pic.

What do you think of this casting?

Bruce Jenner, who turns 60 in October, has given himself an early birthday present: a new face. “He corrected work that was done 25 years ago that he wasn’t happy with,” his stepdaughter Kim Kardashian tells Life & Style. And while Bruce’s new face won’t be revealed on-air until the May 17 episode of E!’s Keeping Up With the Kardashians, Life & Style can give readers an exclusive sneak peek with the photo above — which was shot in April after the 1976 Olympic decathlon gold medalist (pictured with wife Kris) finally corrected the partial face-lift and nose job that went wrong more than two decades ago. “We love the results!” raves Kim. “He looks 10 years younger. You can hardly tell he had anything done.”

On last night’s Jimmy Kimmel, Kimmel and guest Matthew Fox had a staring contest to see who would claim the title of “Gorgeous Man” and ended up in the shower together.

I really should watch the Kimmel show, he cracks me up. Sorry I missed Matthew Fox last night!

Did you guys watch the Lost finale? I just finished it a couple minutes ago, and holy crap! The first hour and a half were pretty boring, but man – the last half hour was INTENSE!! So excited to see what they do next season (which is the last season!)
