Hello guys,

It's almost 2AM and I have trouble sleeping at night, so here I am posting a new topic. I was on youtube looking at some of the past shows and reading some of the comments. I've read majority great comments and a few not so great. In no way do I ever take offense to any of the comments or take them personal. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and that is also the nature of being on the spotlight...critisism. Any who, I just thought I'd take this opportunity to discuss some random thoughts on my mind.

I'd like to say, on every episode that is filmed I pick my own clothing. Never once has anyone ever told me what to wear (except certain colors and patterns that don't go well with camera). I actually don't have a rhyme or reason to how I pick what I wear other than I wake up every day and depending on my mood for that day will determine what I wear. Also, the weather determines what I wear as well

There have been times where I may have worn clothing somewhat revealing but that is because its 100 degrees and apparantly when the weather is that hot only men are allowed to walk around shirtless! LOL
There was a previous episode, the one titled, "Logitech G27 Force Feedback" to be exact where many viewers think I'm wearing a really short yellow dress but in actuality it was a really long yellow top and I did have white shorts on with it however, because I am sitting the whole show, you cannot see the shorts.

Anyway, I know that I don't HAVE to explain myself. I just wanted to share that information for anyone out there. I haven't gotten too many complaints. Most all good comments about my appearance. I definetley DON'T try to dress provactivley on purpose. I just go with my mood (for my color choice) and the temperature (for the amount of clothing to wear). I do wear black quite often on the show because dark colors work good with the camera. On my regular day-to-day basis...it is VERY rare if I wear black. I love colorful stuff and I like to collect shoes such as Nike's, Van's, Adida's, etc. So I'm usually kinda sporty. In Winter I'll wear darker colors like navy, purple, black, grey, etc.

Anyway...I can go on and on forever when it comes to clothing and shoes. Typical girl, huh? Sometimes I just have random thoughts in my head and I feel the need to elaborate. I am kinda treating this forum here on the site as a blog...so please don't mind my blabbering.

God Bless Love Jess

Rest assured that you come across as the genuine article Jessica. I said when you came aboard that you brought both style and substance and that still stands. Dress as you please.

Btw. Shaun entered solid ground yet after his cloud nine escape playing Dirt 2 and Forza 3?

Have a nice day.

[darkangelism]

I really wouldnt worry about it, people tend to make ruder comments over the internet and you're a pretty lady, so some people will make comments.

[Courtenay Smith]

jess u dont need to say anything...we all understand it and dont think nothing of it...ur a show host, so keep working on it...ur doing great!!

[jeffreymstrong]

Your doing fine.

Before you joined the show I once sent Shawn an message about looking like a slob in a t-shirt in one of the early shows. In fact they both began dressing better once you joined.

[PBearHBK]

Who cares what those knuckleheads say. You're doing your job and you're having fun. Real fans of the show appreciate everyone's continued progress within and on the show.

[Shoki]

You're great! Hope you guys get another show out tonight!

[dirtrider]

i see nothing wrong with your clothing and i love the show it wouldnt work with out you cuz a host makes the show look profesional. Shaun and darin alone wouldnt do it, just would look like one of those garage made youtube game reviews.

[Jerret]

Hey Jessica

You have nothing to explain... your an attractive girl that not only dresses well, but your style has a sense of class to it. Both Darin & Shawn can sure comment on peoples opinion's. I'm sure they get an ear full every time they have a review.
It's just peoples nature unfortunately.

[Parnelli98]

Jessica,
Even though you said you did not have to explain yourself, thank you for doing so. I hope it gives food for thought to the people out there who have nothing better to talk/write about other than how a person dresses. You have added a very nice touch to ISR, and your enthusiasm for being there is very evident while watching. Thanks again!

Honestly Jessica you dont have to explain anything.

Just keep up the awesome work

[dawwg]

Hey your appearance is great.The fact that you took the time to explain shows that you're a professional and you care but at the end of the day it's what makes you happy that counts.

[onur]

Ok,

I've been watching this show for a short while, and to be honest, I just have signed up just to reply to this posting of yours.

*** You definitely have nothing to defend. I think you are just too naive to be even thinking of writing something like that. You have not done anything that requires any explanation. You just look great and nothing is out of proportion, except that you are a little too cute overall

I don't know what made you write this. But let me tell you, when you have so many viewers, people will talk, will say things. It is a nice virtue to be caring and listening to what people say, but don't let this get in the way you do things. You are who you are, and keep on doing what you feel like.

I really think you make this show a little more fun and complete and thanks for being part of it. I wish all the best in your career.

Cheers,
.Onur

Hey...thank you to everyone out there with your great response to my post. In actuality when it boils down to the real fact, I really don't care what people think or say because I know that I am being true to myself. In doing this I am dressing how I feel is appropriate and presenting myself in my true manner.
I know that I don't NEED to explain myself. In all honesty I was sitting here, playing around online as I often do and just decided I'd share some thoughts wondering around in my head a loud...or via forum. I know that people will always talk good and bad regardless if I do or do not address such things. From time to time I may post random things that help me express myself as a person. Once again, I know I don't need to explain myself but if I feel like I'd like to share a thought I most definetley will.
Thanks to everyone out there for supporting me and backing me up.
Jessica

[onur]

Great.

I hope we'll have the next episode soon

[jcchaconjr]

As was said above, no need to explain yourself, although I hope after writing that long post, it finally made you sleepy, lol.

Anyway, I happened to like that yellow outfit. The color suits you very well. Oh, and I'm not sure what you did, but your hair looks great in the latest Forza special. Keep up the good work, Jessica! I've noticed particularly in the last 5-10 episodes that the show overall is really maturing; that's just a testament to the hard work that you, Shaun, and Darin are putting into it! Keep it up, guys!

As for the "not so nice" comments... Bah! It's the Internet... You gotta put up with all the crap that comes with the good, I guess. Just ignore it and move along, lol.

[ptlm3]

Jess, you're smoking HOT wear what you want. You make watching Inside Sim Racing better. Besides those people on You Tube that post negative comments, live in their Mom's basements and wish they could find a girl half as hot as you. Keep up the good work and stay beautiful.

[SpikeyMarcoD]

Hello guys,

There have been times where I may have worn clothing somewhat revealing but that is because its 100 degrees and apparantly when the weather is that hot only men are allowed to walk around shirtless! LOL

Hmm, who says.... Go for shirtless then .

[dj-anon]

Well, people just like to complain about everything. I think there has been enough variety in your wardrobe to tell that you are not dressing provocatively just because.
