Jessica Simpson takes the cover of OK!’s latest issue, which claims the 28-year-old country singer has a “revenge diet” and will lose 20 pounds in eight weeks.

During the hubbub over Jessica’s figure, Tony has been unstintingly supportive of his diminutive sweetheart.
“She’s gone up a size in jeans, and Tony could care less,” a friend tells OK!. “He isn’t interested in some idiot Hollywood bimbo with an eating disorder.”
After Jess makes it through the stress of the tour, which ends March 14, friends say the extra weight will disappear too.
“She eats her feelings — it’s hard having people criticizing your every move and ridiculing you on blogs,” one close friend tells OK!. “Once Jessica stops touring [next month], she’ll calm her nerves and the weight will hopefully fall off.”
In addition, Jess will need to cut back on her favorite finger foods like chips and guacamole and make a few substitutions, as well as falling back into a fitness routine.
“She’d much rather gossip with her girlfriends than hit the treadmill, so I know she needs to get a workout buddy to run with her,” her friend reveals.
Now who might that be? Says the friend, “Tony would do it in a heartbeat!”

Ever since Jess showed off a fuller figure at the “99.9 KISS Country Chili Cookoff” last month, critics have been chiming in on her weight debate. Jess is said to get her bikini body back by summer!

“Honestly, I am right where I’m supposed to be. I am so happy,” Jessica told The Early Show. “Right now I’m on tour with Rascal Flatts, having a blast. We’re at Madison Square Garden tomorrow. Everybody’s just been so warm and welcoming. Lots of hugs, I like that … Texas style.”
