Jessica Simpson talks about her recent USO Tour and her upcoming Rockin’ For the USA special next week’s TV Guide:
Pop princess Jessica Simpson has been doing her patriotic part to help America’s troops. She spent Christmas in Afghanistan singing to the soldiers and hit Bosnia and Italy as part of the USO tour. Now she’s joining Marc Anthony, Clint Black, and others in CBS’s Rockin’ For The USA, a special (airing May 25 at 9 p.m.) shot in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, aboard the U.S.S. Harry S. Truman. The highlight for her: singing “God Bless America” with Celine Dion. “I don’t want to sound cheesy,” Simpson says, “but it really made me proud to be an American.”
