Johnny Knoxville Denies Dating Jessica Simpson

Johnny Knoxville is urging the media to stop publishing rumors about him being involved into a romantic affair with 'Dukes Of Hazard' co-star Jessica Simpson. Knoxville confessed that the rumors are disturbing his family, who's not used to this kind of hurtful gossip.

IMDb quote him as saying: "It's an unfortunate thing because I have a wife and a nine-year-old and that stuff is hard on the family. Luckily, my wife and I have a dialog and I said, 'Look, people are making these stories up and putting them in the papers.'

She understands but of course she doesn't like it. I didn't like it and I'm sure Jessica and her husband Nick Lachey didn't like it.

"It's part of the business and you try not to give it too much attention. It seems to give it more attention by fighting it, so it seems like a waste of time."

Johnny Knoxville is married since 1995 with Melanie and has a daughter, Madison, whose name is tattooed on the left side of Johnny's chest. Jessica Simpson married Nick Lachey on October 2002, on live television.
