Jessica Simpson Nude Pregnant 'Elle' Cover: Singer Reveals She's Having A Girl! (PHOTOS)

PHOTOS: Jess Poses In The Nude!

April's issue of Elle features an attention-grabbing cover star: a very pregnant Jessica Simpson cradling her belly in the nude.

It's not like the "pose in the buff while pregnant" trope hasn't been a thing in the past: there's Demi Moore on Vanity Fair, Britney on Harper's Bazaar, Cindy Crawford on W and on and on. But still, we're a little surprised that Simpson, who's kept her bump pretty covered up, is joining their ranks.

In addition to posing for an adorable photo shoot (there appear to be two covers, one nude and one featuring Jess in a red dress), rumored billionaire J Simps also dropped some major baby news -- she's having a girl!

“I swear, I will croak if she asks me for a pair of Nikes instead of Christian Louboutins!” Jess declares. She also says she's worried that fiance Eric Johnson's love of sports will rub off on their new child: “Eric is so athletic. We’re gonna have this athletic girl and I won’t even be able to take her shopping.”
