Jessica Simpson insists she's not ready to date and is still
recovering from the break up from her estranged husband Nick Lachey. A
teary-eyed Simpson was interviewed by "E! News" co-host Ryan Seacrest,
who also made an appearance in her latest music video for A Public
Affair.

When Seacrest asked her if she was at the point where she felt she
could start dating again, she said, "No, not yet." The host then asked
her if she thought she would be ready to get back into the dating
scene anytime soon, and she said wistfully, "I don't know ..."

Trying to lighten the somber mood, Simpson added
optimistically, "Somebody's got to ask me out!"
