Jessica
And
Ashlee
Simpson's
Father
Takes
Legal
Action
In
an
interview
with
"Access
Hollywood,"
Joe
Simpson,
father
and
manager
of
pop
stars
Ashlee
and
Jessica
Simpson,
says
that
they
have
"hired
the
most
powerful
lawyer
in
the
city"
to
take
on
publications
that
he
claims
run
false
reports
about
his
family.
The
interview
airs
on
"Access
Hollywood,"
Tuesday,
August
2,
2005.
"What
we've
done
is
hire
the
most
powerful
lawyer
in
the
city
to
start
taking
these
people
on,"
said
Simpson.
"You
can
only
say,
'No
that's
not
true'...so
often
and
then
everybody
thinks
you
are
lying."
The
pop
stars'
father
also
says
he
believes
the
stories
published
about
them
have
gotten
out
of
hand.
"I
had
Botox,
who
believes
that?
Jessica
had
plastic
surgery,
who
believes
that?,"
he
said.
"I
mean,
they
just
print
it
because
Jessica
sells
magazines,
Ashlee
sells
magazines
and
we
don't
have
any
responsibility
in
the
media
anymore.
You
can
say
whatever
the
hell
you
want
to
and
it's
not
right."
When
asked
what
he
thought
would
make
the
reports
stop,
Simpson
replied,
"I
don't
know.
A
law
suit
big
enough
to
get
their
attention."
