Jessica Simpson jokes about splitting her pants

New York, Feb 14 (ANI): American singer Jessica Simpson told a huge audience at Madison Square Garden on February 12 that she has split her pants in the past.

The 28-year-old appeared completely at ease when she took to the stage in what she calls as a "skort" outfit-a skirt and shorts in one-and a sparkly tie around her neck.

The reason for the skort, she revealed, was because of wardrobe malfunctions with pants in the past.I've had times when my pants split right down the middle when I bent down to reach a note," the New York Daily News quoted her as saying in a Newsday report.

"That's why I'm wearing a skort - not a skirt, not a short - just so they wouldn't split," she added. (ANI)
