Jessica Simpson 'sells first pictures of baby Maxwell for $800k'
Jessica Simpson is said to have sold pictures of her newborn baby to an American magazine for $800,000.
The star, whose celebrity fashion line is reported to have raked in one billion dollars in sales, gave birth to her first child, a daughter named Maxwell Drew, on May 1.
People magazine has done a deal with the Fashion Star judge to run exclusive photos, sources told Women's Wear Daily.
It is significantly less that some other stars received for baby pictures - Jennifer Lopez is understood to have received $6 million from People for snaps of her twins.
The same publication reportedly gave Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt around $11 million for the exclusive on their twins Vivienne and Knox.
Of course, not all A-list celebrities demand high fees - Beyoncé and Jay-Z declined all offers and instead posted the first pictures of Blue Ivy Carter on their Tumblr page.
It seems Jessica may be set to cash in on another front too - there are also unconfirmed reports that she is signing a $4 million deal with Weight Watchers.
Jessica is certainly enjoying motherhood, telling her Twitter followers this week: 'I am so in love with baby Maxwell. I want to cry every time I look at her.'
She added: 'Motherhood is by far the best thing I've ever experienced.'
Jessica is currently engaged to Maxwell's father, sportsman Eric Johnson.
