CN—

Let the guessing games begin.

Jessica Simpson posted an Amazon original story titled “Movie Star: They Always Say They’re Single.” The project describes an encounter Simpson says she had with an unidentified actor that she “grew up thinking was so hot.”

It all started, she reveals, when she was five days away from getting back together with fellow singer Nick Lachey, whom she eventually married.

According to her story, it was early September 2001 and Simpson “had spent that summer without my first real boyfriend, Nick, and I still didn’t know how to be single.”

She was at an MTV VMAs after party in 2001 when the actor, whom she calls Movie Star, met her and “looked” her up and down, “like he was undressing me with his eyes… »

The then 21-year-old singer said she got his phone number, never called him, met him later and talked about potentially doing a music video together, which never happened. produced, and the two lost touch once she and Lachey got back together and married.

They divorced in 2006 and a producer later told her, “I’ve got someone who’s been looking for you forever, and you don’t even know it” when connecting her with the movie star.

Simpson writes that they met at the Beverly Hills Hotel while preparing for an awards show and shared their first kiss.

“He texted me throughout the awards show,” she wrote. “The event was so huge that I felt special that all the beautiful women in Hollywood were there and that he wanted me.”

But, plot twist, “Actually, there was another beautiful woman in his life: his girlfriend.”

“Shortly after, I saw a picture of Movie Star on a red carpet with her,” Simpson revealed. “I’ve never been in a million years to be the other woman.”

After insisting to her that he and his girlfriend had broken up and had just been photographed together to prevent news of the split from getting out, the anonymous actor continued to pursue her.

She writes that she even invited her to travel to see him while he was filming, but they had to take separate cars to the hotel where they had rooms on different floors and she was advised to use the fire escape to get to his room.

Simpson said she finally realized the star was trying to “hide me from her chick.”

According to her, they didn’t have sex and she ended things on her terms, but got something to remember him by.

“I needed a trophy for this achievement so I took the pillowcase he was sleeping on,” she wrote. “I didn’t care if it was scary or if he had to pay for it…and that would send the message: it was fun, but now I have a memory of you.”
