Jessica has been on the receiving end of fat jokes.

Actress Jessica Simpson does have a sense of humour after commenting on the recent photoshoot she did for Elle magazine.

US Weekly report the Fashion Star mentor, 31, took to Twitter recently to urge her followers to pick up her much talked-about, nude Elle cover before it leaves newsstands.

She Tweeted, "Last chance to see me 'fat' aka PREGNANT on the cover of Elle,"

"I loved this shoot, [and it's] only on stands for a few more days!"

The star was acknowledging The View cohost Joy Behar's comments last Tuesday about her pregnancy weight gain.

Joy, 69, said: "Remember the time that Jessica Simpson was criticized because she didn't know the difference between chicken and tuna? That kind of thing is more fun to criticize than the fact that the girl is fat.

"Most women who are pregnant are not supposed to gain more than 25 pounds. She looks like she gained a lot more than that."
