Jessica Simpson is working hard at getting in shape before her upcoming wedding to fiance Eric Johnson.

30-year-old Jessica first tried out a vegan diet over a year ago while filming her TV show The Price Of Beauty and admitted that combined with drinking certain types of tea, the extreme diet ‘shocked’ her system.

She then met Eric, who became a vegan after retiring from professional sport, and she adopted some of his healthy eating habits.

The singer even admitted to having a vegan thanksgiving dinner last year, telling chat show host Jimmy Fallon: ‘After getting out of the NFL, he went to this healer and is very healthy.’

‘For Thanksgiving we have to make a Tofurkey! It doesn’t sound right! It’s gonna be jiggly and weird.’

After becoming engaged in November 2010, Jessica enlisted the services of Tracy Anderson to help her get into shape before her wedding to the former NFL player.

She is believed to be working out four times a week for 75 minutes at a time with the fitness expert, who has worked with the likes of Madonna and Gwyneth Paltrow.

But her friends have said that Jessica has no intention of becoming skinny, she just wants to be in good shape when she walks down the aisle.

One said: ‘She wants to look healthy, not super-skinny. She’s seeing results with her new workout program. She really loves it.’
The vegan diet also appears to just be an occasional thing for Jessica who when asked if she had gone vegan full time recently, responded: ‘I’m from Texas…I’d fry steak.’

Jessica Simpson is so serious about getting into shape for her upcoming wedding to Eric Johnson, that she’s enlisted the help of ubertrainer Tracy Anderson.

“Yes, I am working out, but why is that worth any sorta press? I always take care of myself. Eric and I could get married right now in sweats!” she tweeted on Thursday.

Tracy told Us Weekly that she is having Jessica work out four times a week for 75 minutes at a time. Contrary to what Jessica tweeted, Tracy said that the bride-to-be “is in the mind-set that this is a big, forever lifestyle shift.”

To prep for her upcoming nuptials to fiance Eric Johnson, the 30-year-old singer has enlisted the help of celebrity trainer Tracy Anderson, who’s customized a routine that includes dance aerobics, ab work and strength training.

“She wants to look healthy,” Anderson tells the new issue of Us Weekly (on stands now).

After a few weeks of 75-minute, four-day-a-week workouts, “she’s seeing results,” says a pal. “She really loves it. She thinks it’s so much fun.”

Anderson, who’s also worked with Jennifer Aniston and Nicole Richie, adds that the $1 billion fashion mogul “is in the mind-set that this is a big, forever lifestyle shift.”

Jessica Simpson sat down with New York Magazine to discuss her fashion empire, which is brought in an astonishing $750 million last year. According to New York Magazine, this year, Simpson, who is 30, will add both a full ready-to-wear collection as well as a “career separates” line to her docket, which should push sales past the billion-dollar mark. And Simpson—or Simpson’s top surrogate, her mother—will sit in a room just like this to approve every single thing that gets her label inside. To put that figure in context, it means Jessica Simpson is doing roughly the same volume in sales as Michael Kors.

On her fiance, Eric Johnson:

“Was it love at first sight?” asks Simpson. “No. I don’t know if I believe in that. But it was definitely I could love this man. And maybe I already do.”

On Eric’s proposal:

“It was a complete shock,” she says, “a beautiful shock. It felt great for somebody to be on his knee, and I had to sit on that knee because I was so excited and overwhelmed I couldn’t even stand. Knowing that I had his knee to sit on in that moment was very magical. The way I always wanted it to be. I think I have a lot of stuff to write now. Not that I’m using him as a muse, but it makes me feel very open to share.”

Eric & Jessica write down their thoughts every morning for an hour (oh what I wouldn’t do to get my hands on those!):

Together they follow the “Artist’s Way” practice of writing down their thoughts free form for an hour each morning. “I just let it flow,” she says. “My fiancé taught me that. He’ll get up in the morning and just write, so nothing blocks his emotional life. It doesn’t even have to be in sentence form; he just gets everything out, and that way he can function without getting in the way of himself, without being aggressive or judgmental. We do that together. Sometimes he takes that hour just reading, we’ll get out of bed and just read aloud to each other. He has so many books. Like, just books and books and books and books.”

Jessica grabs Eric’s butt as they sneak out the back door of the restaurant. It’s something she loves about her man, “Thank you Lord for blessing me with a Man that has the perfect Tush.” She recently tweeted, “laying my hands upon it with peace ”

A Hollywood agent named Ed Meyer recently announced that he had bought the rights to Jessica Simpson’s long-buried exercise tape. Jessica’s lawyers have fired back a strongly-worded letter informing Ed he has NO RIGHTS to the video, and tell him if the tape ever surfaces, he will face litigation.

Jessica filmed an exercise tape for Speedfit back in 2005.

Doesn’t this make you wonder what’s on the tape? Why would she go to such lengths to keep the video hidden? Now I’m dying to see it!

“You have no enforceable rights of any sort in the so-called Jessica Simpson-Exercise Video From Speedfit,” one of Jessica’s lawyers wrote in a letter to Meyer dated January 26. The lawyer warns that is the tape is released or marketed, “my clients will pursue all available means of legal redress against you.”

Meyer, however, remains unfazed. He fired back with a letter claiming that the arbitration settlement that prevented the tape from being released was built on a flawed foundation.

He also wrote: “Simply, Jessica Simpson took the money and ran.”

Simpson was reportedly paid $500,000 for the video but contended that Astilean did not produce a suitable final product. Jessica won the legal battle and Astilean was ordered to pay Jessica’s business manager David Levin $50,000 for defamation.

Meyer also wants to depose Simpson and wrote to her lawyers: “While you address many other non-issues in your letter, we will explore these non-issues, at Deposition and when I get Jessica Simpson on the stand in open court in-front of the Jury, Press and the Public.”

Sounds to me that Jessica filmed the video – but in the end, didn’t like how she looked – and backed out. Sketchy!

Jessica Simpson felt it was necessary – for some reason – to announce on Twitter than she thanks the Lord for her fiance’s backside.

“Saying my prayers before bedtime…Thank you Lord for blessing me with a Man that has the perfect Tush.” She tweeted, “laying my hands upon it with peace ”

I find her tweet spectacularly annoying. Maybe his ass is worthy of praise, I just don’t want to hear about it!  (Although here I am posting it – and drawing attention to it…so I guess I’m guilty too!)
