Actress Jessica Simpson shows off her curves as she appears on the cover of US magazine - and promises she'll get back into her famous 'Daisy Duke' hotpants soon. The mum-of-two talks candidly about her weight in the February 2014 issue of the mag, on newsstands now. "Three days ago I was staring at myself naked in front of the mirror - which I never do anymore - and I thought, 'This is going to happen! I am going to be able [to] do this!' "When you put on 70 pounds, it's hard to believe it's ever going to be different. I'm not saying that things won't be a little droopier, but that's okay." Jessica, 33, also said she ignores media criticism about her weight issues. "I never listen to it, not matter who the press talks about when they're pregnant," she said. "It's ridiculous and unfair. I think any woman who is pregnant and creating a life is pretty much entitled to eat whatever she wants as long as she's healthy. I wasn't going to let the media take away from what was one of the happiest times of my life."
