"I don't mind living in a man's world as long as I can be a woman in it," a statement once said by Marilyn Monroe. Agreed or not, celebrity quotes like this one, live on way after the person is gone. Even "Is this chicken, what I have, or is this fish? I know it's tuna, but it says 'Chicken by the Sea'" will always resonate in our minds (ayayay).
Jessica remained at a more curvy weight not acceptable to the entertainment business and suffered from much scrutiny from the media. But it wasn't until gaining some significant weight during her pregnancy that she decided to lose the pounds. This is very admirable, since not many celebrities are strong enough to stand up for themselves and look the way they want. Now after her second pregnancy, Jessica has stuck with her Weight Watchers contract and has been posting pictures of the up and coming commercials on her Twitter. She is sporting a big smile and a thinner frame but most importantly, a healthy weight. The successful singer, actress and fashion designer is an example of a woman in control of her image. We tend to hear too many unfortunate stories about women who go to the extremes to be skinny. It's refreshing to see powerful women like Jessica choose a safe way into living a healthy lifestyle.
