Buxom JESSICA SIMPSON claims her breasts stopped her from forging a career as a gospel singer when she was younger, because they made her appear too sexual.
The 26-year-old was asked not to sing solos in church, because men found her feminine assets too distracting.
However, having found fame and success as both a pop singer and an actress career, Simpson now "wears" her breasts proudly.
She says, "I always felt they disabled me from what I wanted to do. Now, I own them.
"They're like wearing a great necklace. You can't pay for that sort of accessory - though I know people do. But they never look as good at the real ones."
