Bam Margera and Jessica Simpson Make Up  9/5/06

Jessica Simpson and Jackass star Bam Margera finally settled their differences when they met up for a pre-MTV Video Music Awards on Wednesday (30AUG06).

Margera and Simpson famously fell out last year (05) when the skate star's ex-girlfriend claimed on a radio show that he had had sex with Simpson - when she was married to Nick Lachey.

Margera quickly denied the allegation, but he has not seen Simpson since, and was nervous when pals whisked him off to Simpson's VMA Awards party.

He says, "Well, all the Jackass people were in the limo and we popped out of it and I asked someone where we were, they said 'Jessica Simpson's party'. I was like, 'Great, this is going to be awkward,' because I haven't seen her since that whole mess. I was really nervous.

"I took 3 shots of Patron (tequila) and said to her, 'Listen, I'm so sorry about what happened. I had a crazy ex-girlfriend.' Jessica said, 'It's totally cool. I'm the sweetest girl you'll ever meet.' We talked for a few minutes then went our separate ways."
