For reasons I’m not entirely sure of, Jenny Craig released a statement saying the had no intention of hiring Jessica Simpson as a spokesperson.

“Over the past couple of weeks, a lot has been made about Jessica Simpson’s purported battle with her weight and more recently Jenny Craig’s interest in partnering with Ms. Simpson,” read a statement issued by Scott Parker, VP of Marketing and New Business Development for Jenny Craig, whose recent spokeswomen have included Kirstie Alley, Valerie Bertinelli and Queen Latifah.

“Ms. Simpson has publicly stated that she is healthy, feels great and is very happy with her body. We would agree. Ms. Simpson looks fantastic and we see no reason for her to participate in a weight management program.”

Um… I haven’t heard any rumors of a Jessica Simpson/Jenny Craig endorsement. Have you? You would think we would be the first ones to hear about such a thing.

But thanks for throwing your name out there just for the hell of it, Jenny Craig.
