Jessica Simpson insists her beau Tony Romo isn't calling his ex Carrie Underwood. "I looked at his call log," she said Wednesday in an interview with a Nashville radio station.
Of Tony, Carrie tells September's Allure: "The phone will ring and it'll be him, and I'll maybe not answer." "Tony and I both laughed at that," Jessica said. "We got a chuckle out of it."
Jessica and Tony seem to be going strong. "Most of the guys I dated were captivated by my heart but they had different ways of trying to get to me," Jess says in September's Elle.
"Tony understands me. He appreciates my talent," she says. "He's the first person I've spiritually connected with.” Tony has been supporting Jessica while she works on her country album, Do You Know, due September 9. "It's the cutest thing," she says.

Some of Country's queens are getting the chance to sing with the King on an upcoming album of Christmas tracks.
Elvis Presley Christmas Duets pairs the voice of Elvis Presley with the likes of Carrie Underwood and LeAnn Rimes – both of whom were born after the musical legend had died. Martina McBride, Sara Evans, and Wynonna Judd also lend their voices to the tunes. Carrie’s 'duets' with Elvis on "I'll be Home for Christmas," while LeAnn takes on "Here Comes Santa Claus" and Martina sings with Elvis on the Presley favorite "Blue Christmas."
Additional tracks include: "Silent Night" with Sara; "Santa Claus is Back In Town" with Wynonna; "Merry Christmas Baby" with Gretchen Wilson; "Silver Bells" with Anne Murray; "White Christmas" with Amy Grant; and "O Little Town" with Karen Fairchild and Kimberly Schlapman of Little Big Town.
The songs are being recorded in Nashville's RCA Studio B–the same studio where Elvis recorded his original 1971 Christmas sessions. "We are so pleased that these accomplished artists are collaborating with Elvis in this unique way to make exciting new versions of his Christmas songs," Priscilla Presley said in a press release. "I am sure Elvis would be proud to have worked with them."
Tracks from the album will be previewed August 14 during the 2008 Elvis Week in Memphis.

Carrie Underwood tops off a phone call with a big grin while out Thursday in Beverly Hills. The singer lunched at Il Fornaio – and followed her meal with a little shopping.
A radiant-in-red Jessica Simpson leaves New York City's Ritz-Carlton hotel Thursday. The newly anointed country singer recently announced that she'll be launching a line of dresses next spring.
Nicole Richie stays cool in her summer-friendly white frock while out in Los Angeles on Tuesday. Richie, who created a tour video for beau Joel Madden's band Good Charlotte, has been busy with a slate of projects lately, including a guest role on NBC's Chuck.
Kim Kardashian makes an eco-conscious fashion statement while running errands Wednesday in Los Angeles. The Keeping Up with the Kardashians star told Ryan Seacrest on his radio show Thursday that she "would be honored if [Dancing with the Stars] asked me" to join the next season.
Recently, Jessica Simpson has been spotted sporting a t-shirt emblazoned with the slogan, "Real Girls Eat Meat" across her chest. And while this could just be an expression of the singer's love for steak, Jessica family insiders tell OK! it's actually a subtle dig at boyfriend Tony Romo's ex-girlfriend, country superstar Carrie Underwood — who not only shuns meat but who has twice been named World's Sexiest Vegetarian by animal rights group Peta.
"Jess is sick of hearing about how Tony still has feelings for Carrie," says the insider. "She's obviously trying to poke fun at her rival and let her know who really has Tony's heart." While Carrie hasn't said anything about Jessica's carnivorous tee, the folks at Peta released the following statement to OK!:
"Jessica Simpson's meaty wardrobe malfunction makes us thankful that no one is looking to her for food advice. Chicken-of-the-Sea anyone? The woman who thought that Buffalo 'Wings' came from buffalos would benefit from some good veggie brain food."
Carrie's belief in vegetarianism is so strong, she once said, "If you told me I could never sing again, I'd say that was horrible, but it's not my life. If you told me I could never be around animals again, I would just die."
