Jessica Simpson & BFF Ken Paves Eat Out

Jessica Simpson and BFF Ken Paves are spotted after eating dinner at Mastro’s Steakhouse in Beverly Hills on Tuesday night.

The pop-turned-country singer is eager to start touring with Rascal Flatts in mid-January, telling the Chicago Tribune at her Fancy fragrance launch in Chicago: “I can’t wait to be a part of their show and let everyone know that I do actually sing and I’m not just in tabloids.”

She went on to express: “I am a very shy person, but I do believe that God has blessed me with a gift that I need to share. I always wanted to be entertaining in some way. Whether it’s cooking dinner for a best friend or [onstage], I try to do it up right.”
