They say that opposites attract, but when it comes to Jessica Simpson wanting to be with a smart man, I don't think there are enough rulers in the world to measure the distance between those two points. In other words, Jessica, you're really REALLY dumb.

Jessica Simpson -- who famously confused tuna with chicken because the label said "Chicken of the Sea" -- knows what she wants out of her next relationship: A guy with brains.

"I definitely love a spiritual man -- somebody that is going to always inspire me," says the singer, who was dumped by Tony Romo the day before her 29th birthday in July. "And, you know, I love artistic men -- somebody that really understands their art."

"I don't want to get bored," she tells Extra in an interview airing Friday. "I can bore out pretty easily, so I love intellectual men ... people that will always keep me intrigued."

And Jessica is the kind of girl who needs to be intrigued. Like, when Tony Romo did the, "Magically pull a quarter out of her ear," she'd stay amazed for hours - and then she'd give it up in the butt. Hey, being smart comes with perks.
