Jessica Simpson wants a “normal” boyfriend. The singer – who has refused to confirm reports she is dating Smashing Pumpkins singer Billy Corgan – has admitted she isn’t picky when it comes to men and hopes to settle down with someone who is ordinary. She told In Touch Weekly: “I’m just looking for somebody that’s normal! That’s it!”

However, the 29-year-old beauty’s mother Tina has different ideas and is desperate for the singer-and-actress to meet someone with a good career who will look after her for life. She explained: “A doctor. A businessman. Someone who will take care of me when I’m old. That’s good!”Jessica has gone out of her way to appear “normal” recently, after she posed on the front cover of America’s Marie Claire magazine without any make up on.

She said: “It was important for me to make sure they absolutely did not retouch.”Since then the blonde beauty has been experimenting with different hairstyles and tried out a number of wigs – one which was based on Spice Girls star Victoria Beckham’s cropped locks – while on a plane with her stylist Ken Paves and her mother.

He said: “We had a ball. We annoyed everyone on the flight because we laughed. Tina was wearing it. I was wearing it. We put it on the flight attendants. People see us and say, ‘Oh, not them again!’ “
