Can't people give Jessica Simpson some credit?

From the moment she got engaged to Eric Johnson, rumors began flying that she bought her own ring and is only trying to keep up with Nick Lachey.

Then, peeps assumed she must be knocked up, a story gaining traction today when she appeared on The Early Show and admitted booting earlier.

Jessica Simpson is not with child. Just with the flu.

Talking to CBS' Harry Smith, she admitted throwing up right before the interview: "I've had better mornings, I admit. I won't let you smell my breath."

It turns out it was just the flu, however. A source close to the newly engaged singer says "She's not pregnant." Explains the insider: "She was just sick."

So, there you go. Her breath is awful, but she's very happy and can't stop gushing over the proposal by Eric Johnson, who loves her anyway. The end.

Tears of joy. They flowed from the face of Jessica Simpson after Eric Johnson, her boyfriend of less than six months, proposed to her November 11.

Opening up about her recent engagement during a Monday appearance on The Early Show, Simpson called Johnson's proposal "a total surprise."

"I had to sit on his knee; I was too shocked to really get what was happening."

"I first said 'Yes!'" Simpson told Harry Smith, giggling. "I didn't even try the ring on for 5 minutes," she adds. "I just sat there and cried with him."

Guess she didn't pay for it herself then.

As Beyonce crooned, if you like it, you should put a ring on it.

Jessica Simpson apparently took this timeless mantra to heart.

The star, who recently announced her engagement to Eric Johnson, reportedly forked out $100,000 of her own money for a ruby-and-diamond Neil Lane band.

The future Mr. and Mrs. Jessica Simpson steppin' out this fall.

"No way could Eric, who doesn’t have a job, afford to purchase such an expensive ring,” a source said. "Yes, he made a little money in the NFL and is from a wealthy family, but unless his parents helped him out, Jessica must have paid for it."

Definitely. That MUST be what happened.

Sources add she may also fund an extravagant wedding so as not to be upstaged by ex-husband Vanessa Minnillo and Nick Lachey, who just got engaged too.

Divorce is a painful process for couples, so there are going to be mixed emotions if a former spouse gets re-married. Just the same, Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpson appear nothing but happy for each other.

Much as the tabloids wish he'd give a better sound bite, Nick wishes nothing but the best for Jess, who got engaged to Eric Johnson over the weekend.

"I will say the same thing I always say: I wish her the very best," said Lachey, who just got engaged to Vanessa Minnillo himself after years of dating.

NICK AND JESSICA: Past and future newlyweds.

Asked how she felt about Lachey's engagement, Simpson is equally mature, telling Ryan Seacrest "Our relationship was over a really long time ago, and it would be nice if everyone could move on and celebrate the love between him and Vanessa."

Like Jessica, Nick says he's "basking in the glow" of the news and "enjoying that. I'm sure we'll get on the other planning shortly. We are just enjoying this experience." 

Simpson and Lachey famously wed in 2002 and infamously split in 2005. Even then, it wasn't bitter. "This is the mutual decision of two people with an enormous amount of respect and admiration for each other," they said in a statement.

Here's wishing couples the best. Which do you think will last longer?

Nearly five years after Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey divorced, both stars got engaged this month and are totally ready for their second marriages.

Nick and Vanessa Minnillo announced their news November 1. Then, this Sunday, we learned that Jessica Simpson and Eric Johnson will wed as well.

The way marriages go nowadays, particularly in Hollywood, you can't help but wonder if either will make it. Who do you think stands the better chance? 

Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpson are getting hitched. To other people.

As for the obligatory rumor that Jessica got engaged just to "keep up" with Nick (you know someone will report this), a source says Johnson "had been planning the engagement for awhile and the date was very special to them."

Bottom line: We wish both couples the best and hope they both last forever. But it's far from a given. Which union do you think will last longer?

Not to be outdone by Nick Lachey, Jessica Simpson is getting married again. Congrats to the alleged singer and former mediocre NFL player Eric Johnson!

We kid, of course. Truly, we are so happy for Jess, whose rep confirmed the news earlier today, saying: "Yes, we are excited to confirm they are engaged!"

The couple began dating in May, after being introduced by friends. Ever since, Eric and Jessica have been seen getting cozy across the U.S. and beyond.

The future Mr. and Mrs. Jessica Simpson, everyone!

Explaining how well their relationship was going, Simpson told People last month she is just so inspired by Eric Johnson: "This is just normal, thank God. He's very, very supportive. [I] couldn't ask for a better man in my life right now."

Asked if Johnson were the one, she replied: "I never go to that because I already went there, so, I'm not gonna jinx myself. He's the one for me right now! I'm very happy, I'm in a great place and if right now could last forever, I'd take it."

She already went there, of course, with Nick Lachey, who also just got engaged to Vanessa Minnillo this month. Guess she didn't want to be outdone!

Congratulations to the soon-to-be-spouses. We can't wait for the MTV reality series chronicling the lead-up to the wedding and their life as newlyweds.

Vanessa Minnillo and Nick Lachey just got engaged, and according to Us Weekly, his previous spouse, Jessica Simpson is "flipping out" over the news.

Only a good way, of course.

"I am extremely, extremely happy for him," she told Ryan Seacrest on his radio show. "My mom actually called me and said that everyone was saying that I was 'saddened.' I was just in complete shock. I couldn't be more happy for Nick."

"Our relationship was over a long time ago, and it would be nice if everyone could move on with us and really just celebrate the love between him and Vanessa [Minnillo]," she went on. "I do, and I really wish them nothing but the best."

Simpson says she's content with her new beau Eric Johnson, who she gushes about, but who we're guessing he hasn't gotten Jessica Simpson pregnant. Yet.

The only issue, she says, is where to spend the coming months. "Having a boyfriend through the holidays, we're going to see how all that splits up," she said.

Jessica Simpson might be pregnant.

That's the brilliant deduction of the National Enquirer, after one of the star’s friends came to them  and told them Simpson and her BF are about to become parents.

"Jessica is crazy in love with [Eric Johnson], so they’ve decided to make a baby. She always said she wanted to be pregnant by the time she was 30," said this pal.

Is Jessica Simpson pregnant? Or just gaining weight again?

The compelling testimony continues: "Her priorities have changed. All she can think of is motherhood. She’s happily eating for two and not the least embarrassed.”

Simpson’s pregnancy would certainly explain her putting on some weight in the last couple of months, however she's been through that cycle naturally in the past.

Still, another friend said: "A pregnancy explains her sudden weight gain. Two months ago, she bragged she was in the best shape of her life on Eric’s vegan diet."

Eric Johnson is just too good to be true.

That's Jessica Simpson's take on her former NFL player beau. "I've never really been in such a healthy relationship. I'm like, 'Something's going to go wrong. Is he going to trip me or something?'" the alleged singer said Tuesday.

Eric Johnson used to play for the 49ers. Now he plays with Jessica Simpson.

"I'm waiting for something bad to happen," she said during a panel discussion at Maria Shriver's Women's Conference in Long Beach, Calif., on Tuesday., "but then I have realized that I actually do deserve an understanding relationship."

Simpson, who refers to her boyfriend of six months "a hottie," said that Eric Johnson "has been a true inspiration. He really knows himself."

The same can be said of Jess ... in a manner of speaking.
