SIMPSON UPSET ABOUT MISSING IRAQ FOOTAGE

JESSICA SIMPSON wants to know where missing
footage of her and husband NICK LACHEY's
harrowing trip to Iraq got to - because she
thinks Americans would like to see just how bad
conditions are there.

The pop singers-turned-reality TV couple
travelled to the war-torn nation to visit US
troops as part of a recent ABC TV variety
special, and they were both left shellshocked by
what they saw.

But all the controversial moments and harrowing
footage of the trip didn't appear in the
fun-filled TV show.

Simpson says, "It was unbelievable. They didn't
show a lot of what really went on with the enemy
attacks and the shelling. There was so much stuff
that went on and somehow the tapes got
mysteriously misplaced.

"It put everything in perspective for me. It
really did teach me the definition of sacrifice.
I can't even fathom being out there right now. I
was ready to come home."
