Jessica Simpson's Tan Ten-Gallon

Jessica Simpson tips her ten gallon hat to fans as she arrives at LAX airport in Los Angeles on Thursday.

Jessica, 27, flew from Dallas with her BFF and personal hair stylist Ken Paves.

Apparently the Irresistible singer is dipping her toe into Las Vegas real estate, plunking down a small fortune for a unit in the brand new Palms Place condo-hotel, adjacent to the trendy hotel. According to a hotel spokesman, J. Simpson was the first celebrity to close on a one-bedroom suite. Vegas developer George Maloof Jr. has indicated that most buyers are paying in cash! The grand opening is this weekend.
