Pop-star Jessica Simpson was once a visible spokeswoman for Operation Smile, a charity organization that helps disadvantaged kids with facial deformities get reconstructive surgery. Recently, however, Jessica has completely cut herself off from the group - and people are beginning to grumble that Jess's participation was only about making herself look good.
The subject of Simpson's mysterious absence from Operation Smile events came up the other night at a big benefit for the organization. Said one person to Page 6:
She's turned her back on them. She got a lot of good publicity from the charity but refused to let pictures of her be in the commemorative book and hasn't done anything with them in a year.
A rep for Queen Poopypants begs to differ however:
[Jess was honored at a recent UNESCO event] partly for her work with Operation Smile. Jess was one of four honorees for her philanthropic work. She sang two songs, and the event raised about $3 million to build schools all over the world.
She sang two songs? Fuck, she's practically Jesus now. And please, don't give me some bullpoo about how that event raised $3 million to build schools. It would've raised that with or without Jessica. Hell, it might've raised more, had the stink of her poopy diaper not chased half the crowd away. Plus, the way these shady charities work, most of that $3 million probably wound up in some Swiss account, and is currently paying for some rich piece of Euro-trash to have ice sculptures that pee champagne at his trophy wife's 18th birthday party. Face it, Jessica hooked up with Operation Smile because she thought it would help her image - but she got bored with it and quit. Besides, she's got better things to do now - like redecorate her and John Mayers' hotel rooms by crapping in her hand and chucking it at the wall (while giggling).
