Star magazine reports that Smashing Pumpkins frontman Billy Corgan and failed Christian/Pop/Country singer Jessica Simpson (who started hanging out last month) are not only still going strong but are threatening to make music together. Oh the horror! To accompany this absolutely disconcerting news, Star provides a couple of photos of The Odd Couple lookin’ all cozy together in the recording studio photographed by Kristin Burns. Forget 2012, the musical union of Jessica Simpson and Billy Corgan could really be the end of the world as we know it:
Despite reports that Jessica Simpson and Billy Corgan have called it quits, they’re still together — in the recording studio at least. And in new photos of the duo, the look of love is still in Jessica’s eyes. Jessica accompanied the Smashing Pumpkins singer to the studio earlier this week – he’s working on his band’s eight studio album, Teargarden By Kaleidyscope – and several photos of them together have made it to Twitter. In a photo posted by Billy’s producer and record label partner Kerry Brown, Jessica — dressed casually in jeans and a hoodie — looks up at Billy as he’s balancing a guitar overhead. In another, posted by the photographer, Jessica has her eyes locked on the musician as he plays, looking at him with a look of admiration and displaying a smile. According to reports, Jessica and Billy – who started spending time together in December — ended their relationship due largely to religious differences. Billy, who founded the interfaith Web site Everthingfromheretothere.com, thought the former pastor’s daughter seemed uninterested in spiritually. Now Jessica has retweeted one of the studio photos of her with Billy and added the message: “I am blessed.” Another photo of Jessica featured the caption: “Fun to be lost in laughter.” Are they or aren’t they? It seems they’re still figuring it out – slowly. “She wants to play her cards right this time,” a source close to the unlucky in love celeb told Star.
Seriously, WTF?! This union is absolutely the strangest thing I’ve ever heard of … ever. I cannot, for the life of me, imagine how Billy Corgan would want to collaborate musically with Jessica Simpson. I mean, I’m not a big fan of Corgan‘s music (at least, not for many, many years) but the man is talented … any affiliation with Simpson would be … idiotic. After the jump, check out one more photo of The Odd Couple chillin’ like lovebirds in the studio …
I don’t get it, I don’t like it but … I can’t stop looking at these two with confused wonder. I mean … yeah. What?

This.cannot.be.
My eyes! My eyes!
As a huge, longtime SP fan, I am hoping against all hopes that this is just some sort of music collab.
Regardless of what kind of collaboration is going on here, I don’t like it at all. It just doesn’t seem like Billy.
Boo.
If anyone is going to make Jessica sound cool it will be Mr. Corgan! Mark my words…
Jessica couldn’t sound cool even if she was stuck in a freezer.
This is just two weird for words.
this is either going to be really great for jessica or really crappy for billy. well, at least we know he must really love her. :|
I don’t think its right to criticize them as a couple, love works in mysterious ways so we have no right to judge them just cause they look weird together. Its like any of us actually know how they interact as a couple. Besides, Jessica seems to have a good head on her shoulders (although a bit on the dumb blonde side). She seems like a friendly and nice girl to bring home to your parents compared with people like Lindsay Lohan or Amy Winehouse. Lets give Jessica a break shall we!
Sometimes it’s the most bizarre unions that produce unexpected outcomes.
I don’t really care how they are as a couple… To me, it is still a strange pairing… and it’s weird. And it makes me L O L.
I see these pictures and all I can hear in my head is Nancy Kerrigan yelling “WHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHY?!!!”
Everyone should just let them be… if they find something in each other, that’s great.
Maybe she just wants to be a failed AltRock singer next?
I think Jessica has it in her, to make a credible album, she just needs to be surrounded by proper musicians … not industry people, who just want her to be a cute puppet for the teen market. Her career has totally suffered due to the people around her. I want to hear an album from Jessica – The Woman … she needs to re-train with a voice coach, to learn to control her voice and sing without the usual vocal ‘dramatics’ that she’s always used.
@Mr. Gyllenhaal: My thoughts exactly!
Jessica is the beautiful talented young person. Why don’t you shut your pie hole up. Anybody who is associated with her is very lucky. I’m sick of your comments about her. She’s a talented young woman, and she’s young so shut your face………moron!!
I have been a HUGE SP fan since middle school and used to have the BIGGEST crush on Billy. And I actually really like Jessica, she seems like a really sweet down to earth chic. Yes it is kind of weird for the two of them to be seen together but honestly they both have been through so much in the love department that I think they deserve to be happy. So if they have found that together then KUDOS! I like the both of them, and would love to hear them collaborate musically. Love works in mysterious ways and I’m saddened to read that some of you are judging them…shame on you! Here’s to wishing them happiness and whatever becomes of this relationship : )
They are BOTH doing it for publicity…. IMO
I’m intrigued. Really, I am. But you know, the end of the world is a pretty intriguing situation as well. Haha
i agree — it’s not right to judge. please stop being so negative. to each his own.
