Will Jessica Simpson and Tony Romo be the new Jessica and Nick Lachey? Simpson really made fame when she couldn't really figure out if "Chicken of the Sea" tuna was chicken or fish. Now Us Weekly Magazine is reporting that Jessica Simpson may be returning to the small screen.

The magazine is reporting that Jessica is in talks with CMT to star in a special chronicling her life as she records her upcoming country album. "We have had exploratory talks with Jessica's camp, but nothing has been confirmed or signed," a CMT rep tells Usmagazine.com.

Her rep tells Us Weekly it is "not for a reality show. Jessica is finishing her country album in Nashville. They’re in talks with CMT for a special timed to air when the album is released, but there’s no truth whatsoever to there being a reality show." In a recent interview, her father Joe hinted that a reality show may be in the works.

"With Newlyweds, she let everyone into her world," her father Joe told Entertainment Weekly. "Then she had to shut the world out. Now she can open it up again so people can see, here's a girl struggling with self-esteem and finding her way. Country music is about storytelling, after all."
