Pregnant, Naked Jessica Simpson Poses For Elle, Reveals Baby's Gender

Ever since Demi Moore posed nude and pregnant for the 1991 cover of Vanity Fair, about-to-pop pop divas have followed (birthday) suit. Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera and — now — Jessica Simpson have all graced magazine covers with their naked baby bumps.

Simpson, who announced her pregnancy on Halloween 2011 with fiancé Eric Johnson, appears on the latest cover of Elle in Moore's signature pose, inadvertently drawing attention away from ex-husband Nick Lachey's news that he and girlfriend Vanessa Minnillo are also expecting.

Inside the pages, Simpson reveals more than just her naked profile; she announces that her baby is a girl. "I swear, I will croak if she asks me for a pair of Nikes instead of Christian Louboutins!" the singer/fashion mogul/ reality TV star said. "Eric is so athletic. We're gonna have this athletic girl and I won't even be able to take her shopping."

Simpson also says she has decided on a baby name, but that it won't be anything weird. "It's nothing shocking and nothing you'll have to add to the dictionary," she said. "Still, when people hear it, they'll know … why."
