I'm naturally very blonde and I have green eyes. I've never seen a natural blonde with brown eyes although I feel as though it's possible.

In terms of young children though, I would definitely believe that a young child could be blonde and have brown eyes, but often blonde hair in children gets drastically darker as they grow up so I'm not sure it counts :)
 
It is possible-my MIL has light blonde hair (not dyed) and has deep brown eyes--she's 60. My SIL has the same color light blonde hair (again, not dyed) and those same deep brown eyes--she's 34.
 
...often blonde hair in children gets drastically darker as they grow up so I'm not sure it counts :)
I will vote for it to count in general terms of being possible, because the same thing happens to blue-eyed children with blonde hair, green-eyed ones, etc.

But within the context of the original question, Jessica Simpson et al, I don't think it is even relevant to be counted because very few people in show business are walking around with completely un-colored hair.
 
I was a blonde haired brown eyes gal until I had my youngest son last year-and I'm 37. It didn't get dark until then. I wanted Catherine Zeta Jones brown hair though and even colored my hair dark once. It looked horrible,lol.
 
it is very possible however it is rare because genes tend to crossover between alleles that are farther apart. i remember a guy in high school. he was black but very dark, like wesley snipes dark, and had really bright piercing grey eyes.
