From E! Online:

Jessica Simpson is coming to Gaby Sidibe's defense against Howard Stern for his recent outburst that the Oscar nominee could kiss her Hollywood career goodbye because of her weight.

"I'm actually surprised somebody had the cojones to say that," Simpson tells me from a New York City hotel. "I just think that's really disrespectful."

And not exactly accurate...

"It's unfortunate because she walked the red carpet at the Oscars and she owned it," Simpson said of the Precious star. "She was beautiful. There was no denying that she did not think she was the most beautiful person on that red carpet. She was just owning that moment for herself. She had such confidence and I absolutely 100 percent think she could get anything in the world that she wants."

Simpson knows a thing or two about being publicly crucified for her appearance. But she's fighting back.
