Simpson lawyers after 'OK!'

Jessica Simpson's attorneys have demanded America's 'OK!' magazine print a "prominent and unambiguous" retraction after accusing them of publishing a "smear campaign" against the singer.

Simpson has taken aim at the weekly over a recent article about her relationship with American footballer Tony Romo, headlined 'Jessica Dumped!'

The singer's attorneys claim the article is "utterly false" and "is based on nothing more than rumour, gossip and innuendo."

According to TMZ.com, Simpson's lawyers have sent a letter to OK! Editor-in-Chief, Sarah Ivens, claiming the article is bogus.

They state that their client and Romo are still together, and the news item has subjected Simpson to "public contempt, ridicule, aversion or disgrace."
