Ashlee Simpson

Singer/songwriter Ashlee Simpson doesn't care a fig what people think about her new look after the plastic surgery.

According to sources, the American singer had a nose job done in April 2006, which she never accepted nor denied.

The 'Autobiography' singer revealed that she is not bothered about what people say, for what matters is that she is happy about it.

"I don't get bothered by people saying what they say. I'm a happy person, and I'm happy with my looks," People quoted Simpson, as telling Harper's Bazaar magazine in its May issue.

The 22-year old insisted that she has never been insecure about her appearance still she went under the knife because of 'personal choice'.

"I believe if somebody chooses to do plastic surgery, it [should be] for yourself, not for anyone else," she said.

"Everybody always has an opinion. One minute they'll love you; one minute they'll hate you. When you go home to sleep at night, [the important thing] is to feel good about yourself. And I do," she added.

The singer also slammed critics who claim that she wants to look like her elder sister Jessica Simpson.

"Of course I look like her. She's my sister," she says with a laugh. "It's like, God, please! We think it's quite funny," she added.

There have also been claims that Simpson had chosen to surgically enhance her lips and to reduce her chin.
