Courtney Hazlett The Scoop
Jessica Simpson’s part on CBS's April Fool’s Day special, “I Get That A Lot,” was so well received she’s considering going for a dip in the reality show pool. And the former “Newlywed” is thinking about a show you might have heard of: “Dancing With the Stars.”

“Jessica’s fame skyrocketed when she was on ‘Newlyweds,’ and no other project has been the same runaway hit,” says a friend of Jessica Simpson’s. “She wants to be involved with something she’s really good at, and people love Jess when she’s just being herself. She never would have considered ‘Dancing With the Stars’ before, but she’s not ruling it out now.”

Even before “I Get That a Lot,” which attracted 10.3 million viewers, “Dancing” had become a passing curiosity for Simpson. “When she saw Jewel was going to do it, it made her look at the show in a different light,” says the friend.
