It's much harder to get success in country music than it is in pop music. If Jessica started out as a country artist and became a pop artist that could be seen as selling out, but not the other way around.
It maybe harder, but either way is "sell-out". She started off as Pop/R&B, NOT Country.
I'm saying that she sold out because of her failed attempt from the last album of sticking to what she's known for, she goes and does Country because it's the hot thing right now. Plus she's a blonde and from Texas, I bet she thinks that she has a stamp on it already for having those things down.
Actually TRL Girl is right. She took this direction because country sells albums and Pop fans have given up on her. So if she fails in this also then she'll have to retire from the music business.

Jessica Simpson adds another accessory to her always-stylish look – a cowboy hat.
The singer is "talking about doing a country record and going back to her roots, being from Texas," Jessica's father and manager, Joe Simpson, told PEOPLE at Hard Rock Hotel's Rolling Stone party in Las Vegas.
"Everything in our business is about beats and I think she really wants to sing," he said, "and country music still believes in that."
Simpson, 27, recently finished filming Major Movie Star and is turning her thoughts back to her music. Her last album, 2006's "Public Affair," hit the Top 20, but quickly fell off the charts.
"She's a singer from top to bottom," Joe Simpson said. "And everything in the music business, especially pop music, has moved away from singers. And I think country is the the only pure, storytelling kind of genre left."
On whether she will be accepted among country fans, he said, "She's from Texas. How could she not?"
I normally cannot stand country music. However, this is actually pretty good. I'm fairly unsure of why some of you are hating on it. It's nice not to hear her straining her vocals.
She's obviously following Jewel's footsteps. The song is pretty catchy, Country Radio will probably eat it up.
idk why so many people are making fun of her and saying this song is really terrible, i pressed play with a negative point of view but the song actually grew on me after one play and i think it will do really well.
Hm, first listen and i thought it was really good, far superior from A Public Embarrassment
not sure if people will dig it but a nice improvement of this ****-wanna-be
