Jessica Simpson is returning to her reality-show roots.
Simpson, who rocketed to a new level of stardom in 2003 on MTV's "Newlyweds: Nick & Jessica," will star as a "guide" on NBC's upcoming reality show, "Fashion Star."
The show, hosted by supermodel Elle MacPherson, will follow 14 fashion-savvy contestants as they battle to win a multi-million-dollar contract to launch their own fashion label in three of the country's largest retailers.
It will be taped in front of a studio audience -- and will feature dancers, live music and models, according to reports.
In addition to her singing career, Simpson has launched a fashion empire that includes nearly 24 products (including sportswear, denim, watches and fragrances).
Simpson and her now-ex-husband, Nick Lachey, headlined "Newlyweds: Nick & Jessica" for three seasons.
