chances are, you know that Jessica Simpson is no stranger to the spotlight. Her
hit pop and country songs, movies, television and eponymous collection of

followed, studied and scrutinized since she released her first hit single at the age
of 19. Now, Jessica turns the tables on our culture and cultures all over the world

In the new VH1 docu-series, produced by RDF USA ("Wife Swap", "Secret
Millionaire"), Jessica travels to Japan, Thailand, France, Brazil, Uganda, Morocco,
and India then back home to Los Angeles to meet every day women and some
local pop culture icons. She examines the local fashions, dietary fads and beauty
regimes and even participates in some extreme practices in order to reveal what
constitutes beauty in these foreign cultures.
