Our favorite country singer, Jessica Simpson, is on the cover of Elle Magazine next month, and it looks like she has more on her mind than just a new album!

Ashlee's older sis recorded a song called "Remember That," which she "hopes will deliver a message to abused women." Here's a portion of the lyrics: It doesn't matter how he hurts you/With his hands or with his words/You don't deserve it/It ain't worth it/Take your heart and run.

Jessica said she "had to record that," and added, "there's nothing on my album you're gonna hear that I don't relate to or that I haven't experienced."

The Elle writer then asked the singer, "I understand you've felt emotionally abused, but you're not telling me that you've experienced physical abuse as well, are you?"

"I don't want to talk about it," Jess responded, after pausing, "but I have definitely experienced abuse in a way that I would tell people to take their heart and run."

Hmm, sorry, we're a little confused... didn't Ms. Simpson bring this all up in the first place? Feels kinda like her confession is only a half-truth!

Either A, she's just opening up (it's not like she owes the world to reveal something personal) and that's totally okay... or B, she's just trying to promote her album. Which is not okay!

Think Jess would tease us just to get attention? She might've picked up a few tricks from Papa Joe, the master of media manipulation!
