Fat shaming a PREGNANT woman is the dumbest thing.
Putting on some weight during pregnancy is healthy and normal.
The early-mid 2000s media really had nothing better to report about.
Yeah that always made zero sense, like as a guy when someone *doesn't* gain weight during a pregnancy that's when I think possible concern may be valid, but that is also something that just happens sometimes from what I understand.
Like it's the kind of thing that is for the woman herself to consider and get checked out to ensure the pregnancy is progressing normally and healthily. But that's personal, the kind of stuff regular doctors check ups you should be getting during pregnancy would cover usually, and not what a normal person or magazine should be focused on.
Edit: Sorry meant to say doesn't gain weight xD
People fat shamed Kim Kardashian when she was pregnant with North and just got married to Ye. Fat shaming to all people are wearing not some
It was a nasty era full of hateful media shaming and taking advantage of young people, and bulimia was a rampant disease.
I remember when Brittany Spears was pregnant she was in an interview and she said she felt guilty for eating 2 pop tarts and you could tell she meant 2 PACKS (meaning 4) and the interviewer laughed AT HER and said "you ate BOTH out of the pack?!" She looked both embarrassed and ashamed. She was PREGNANT and he fat shamed her.
@@Goldphool😢
The record labels destroyed this woman. How they found this woman unattractive is beyond me as this woman is beautiful. I hope she's doing well for herself.
Right she's beautiful and has my dream body especially back at the beginning and she seems really sweet
her father destroyed her, vid starts like he was supporting her but goes on to show - he is just a "manager"
Totally agree! Always thought she is gorgeous❤
she looks stunning to me
@@GalinaEvyup
Hearing about her dad publicly calling her a busted condom has given me a new respect for Jessica. She is alot tougher than she has been given credit for, bc she is still standing tall.
@@leahx1701 I do not even understand the comment.
It was her dad referencing how she was concieved
She's better than me because i would've never spoken to my dad. Ever again!
A prophetess saw her in a dream about 6 weeks ago because was going to commit suicide or something real bad. Prophet told Believers to pray for her.. Many people prayed for her recently.
Her dad is a disgusting perv....................he's made lewd comments about both Jessica and Ashley in the past........................wouldn't surprise me in the LEAST if he's a closet pedophile.
I just have to say I remember when her face was all over the tabloids in grocery stores and one day I was in line after work grabbing something for dinner. A woman was in front of me with her son in the cart. He kept staring at me but I wasn't really paying attention. His mom smiles and says to me "he thinks your pretty and you look like her" as she pointed to Jessica on a tabloid cover. It honestly made my day and was such a compliment ❤ no matter what size she was or is she is gorgeous.
Ma'am, if people are confusing you with Jessica, that means you're one of the most beautiful women in the world
The fact that her and Mandy Moore were basically meant to be "copies" of Britney, just shows how toxic showbusiness practices still are.
How does that denote that the industry is toxic?
Everything is ‘A Bugs Life’ vs. ‘Antz’ to corporations - they’re not real people, they’re dollar signs
@@mikehunt7360because it pushes young women to act older than their age and get exploited in exchange for fame. Hence, they have to deal with being constantly sexually objectified and they're pushed to adhere to unrealistic beauty and body standards.
@@mikehunt7360bro it's a way to keep young women from being themselves forcing them to be something their not
No, they were meant to be the “good” or “Christian” version of Britney, I clearly remember the marketing of Mandy Moore specifically as the “goody two shoes” “virginal” version of Britney for the parents who didn’t like “slutty” coded Britney.
Howard Stern’s comments were so disgusting and the fact that Nick even allowed him to continue was worse. Poor Jessica. 🙁
He seemed uncomfortable though. Ew Howard
Exactly this! Howard Stern is scummy and is going to be his scummy self… but Jessica’s HUSBAND should never even entertained that conversation. Beyond disrespectful.
Howard Stern is disgusting, and his comments were way out of line. I had a morning show in the early 2000’s, and I was so naive going into it. It was my job to hunt down stories, and I was able to interview Britney Spears’s first husbands family. It was the one story I refused to air for the sake of the family, I didn’t want the info to get out and be harmful, they were such nice people. I’ve been around countless actors, musicians, politicians and sports stars, both Britney and Jessica were angels being used. Jessica deserves all her blessings right now, I’m glad God has given her happiness and success away from it all. ❤
Howard was an absolute slime ball -- 100% objectifying women and humiliating them. I bet he has some SA in his past that should be investigated. I know he's all "woke" now, but back in the day he was a total male chauvinist pig.
He is a putz. Then and now. One does not reveal such intimate things too anyone. Period. Guess she put him in his place.
Big ups to grandma who didn’t let her give up!!! How freaking cute of her to fund her first album 🥲
Cried listening to her book. She didn’t deserve how she was treated but happy she has a happy marriage, beautiful babies and a thriving business.
Jessica is financially a billionaire. Her fashion line is EVERYWHERE. Either Jessica herself or someone she trusted made many smart choices. Life is challenging for all of us. She's doing great.
That's amazing to hear
Just because she has money doesn't mean she's doing great. Don't make assumptions girlie
YES! It’s an empire!! Someone bought it out recently from her but she bought it back
She is not she is worth 100 million
She looks very unhappy
In the early 2000s, a lot of women including Jessica Simpson were done severely dirty. The body shaming, the constant battles these women had to face everywhere they turned is astounding to me. I hope she found peace and most importantly I hope she understands that she’s more than enough.
YES THIS. Even the younger celebs like selena gomez, britney, and a whole other slew of child actors. It was insane to me that so many adukts could judge teenage girls for being well teenage girls like 🎉
😢*
@@unalivesuccubus6747 I just hope that these people who were severely judged for being themselves, especially for being a kid or teenager, are at a good spot in their lives right now. No one deserves to be berated just because their under the spotlight, for any circumstance.
I remember it well, here in uk we had a magazine called now - which on cover every week would be unflattering pics taken when they celebs didn't even know they were being filmed etc with disgustingly cruel headlines like "fat and miserable!" Or "skinny bony and haggard! The poor ladies couldn't win it was unbelievably cruel. And of course the male celebs never got the body shaming only the ladies
For real though! In an episode of Ricky & Morty, Summer says to Beth, "b*tch, my generation gets traumatized for breakfast." Totally reminded me of watching MTV before school and Americas Next top model after. I don't know any millennial that *didn't* have an eating disorder at some point. Shelby and BJ talked about yellow and black pills given to the Biggest Loser contestants and I immediately yelled out "yellowjackets!" and got nostalgic. We took them in junior high and had no problems buying them at the grocery stores. the 2000s were a WILD time
Even as a young teen watching Newly Weds, it was clear to see Nick was jealous, controlling and nasty. He was always putting her down & trying to dim her light.
Jess was beautiful, bright & bubbly. The industry straved her, broke her down and threw her to the side when they were done with her.
I had Anorexia & Bullimia for 15yrs & watching these unrealistic industry standards absolutely reinforced the unrealistic standards I placed upon my body. So glad we've moved on from that toxic outlook!
You are not being fair. They were newlyweds. He was trying to build a relationship. She was attempting to get famous. SHe adopted ditzy blonde character. He wanted real. It was not about the fame so much as how she changed because of it
She cheated with Johnny Knoxville and bam margera
You really think nick was jealous?
I went for an audition and froze in front of the camera as well. I never went for another audition. It's amazing that Jessica got out there again.
Agree, that is very admirable!
Her dad had no problem cashing all those checks while his daughter was being exploited/ taken advantage of
It blows my mind How he didn't stoop low enuff 2 get her into XXX. He was vile enuff 2 do so.
🐍 Pinche serpiente
Yeah, love how the pastor was totally fine pimping his daughter out. Ffs this whole documentary was so hard to listen too. Parents are supposed to be the ones uncomfortable with their kids being seen as sex symbols, and yet she was the one who had more maturity than him. Bless Jessica.
It’s not only Hollywood ruining these women it’s their greedy parents.
Former preacher and now gay?!?! Hum
Leave britney alone
The way she was treated by the media was beyond disgusting, absolutely awful
They were even worse till today to Britney 😢
They way the media treats all celebrities is awful, especially the women.
Yes. However, before the reality show, Jessica was a very distant third behind Britney vs Christina. I have no recollection of the media talking about Jessica’s sx status. None. I remember a popular men’s magazine had a countdown until Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen turned 18 which is also inappropriate as hell.
Avril Leavine got more attention than Jessica but that was only for a brief moment in time before everybody lost interest in Avril.
Also Hilary Duff vs Lindsay Lohan started in the early 2000s but I would estimate they got only maybe 15% as much attention as B vs C.
JLo and Bennifer got tons of attention until they broke up and the new “it girl” became Paris Hilton.
Regardless, the media was awful about all of them.
This is what it takes for you to be disgusted by the media? We're doomed...
Seeing how they were mauled by the media is gross. The questions about their sex life to nick was disgusting.
I feel so bad for her pain all her life, but she met every challenge with grace and class in the public eye! ❤
She is so resilient. She faced so much disrespect and bullying.
Nah, they still expect the innocent girl to go against the family and turn into a bad girl, literally every child star has been moved towards that direction .
Bullying? Are you high?
@@intellectic9155are you high? Yes, this woman was relentlessly bullied. Constantly told she needed to lose weight, look perfect, and act perfect. I sure wish at my heaviest weight I was as svelte as her and at my prettiest moment as pretty as her.
I had her sign a Chicken of the Sea can when she was doing an appearance at Ulta. She laughed hard for a full 30 seconds.
That's awesome
I always felt that was so unfair to her. She was a sheltered pastor's daughter, for cripe's sake! Pastor's children, *especially* daughters, are generally shielded from so much of the mainstream. It shapes not only how they perceive the world, it lends itself to a very naive kind of thinking. It says chicken not only right on the label, it's part of the brand's name.
Expecting progressive, "worldy" thinking from a young woman is going to lead to severe disappointment. Maybe she's neurodivergent, who knows? She asked an innocent question, and then so many people tormented her.
She had the misfortune of not only marrying a misogynistic a-hole who bullied his own wife (bc that's how her father treated her, so she was brought up believing that was normal), he did it in all manner of public outlets, furthering her suffering.
It looks like she's found her slice of happiness, and good for her. We should all be so lucky.
I bet you tell that story as much as you possibly can. Even inserting it into random conversations. People are probably tired of hearing about it even
her match was nick’s brother, perfect match.
@@babyblue797This comment made me remember the Shania Twain mayonnaise story in I Heart Huccabees! 😹
This kind woman didn't deserve to get destroyed by the industry
It’s what the industry does, unfortunately.
I honestly think the fact that Jessica turned into an amazing business woman, a good mom, and just a sane person growing up in that industry is a miracle. Shes a tough cookie.
Looking back now it's easier to see why myself and my millennial girlfriends were growing up with severe body image and food issues... I hope Gen Z can use this all as a cautionary tale... we could have done EVERYTHING possible to meet these insane standards and it still was never enough. My heart goes out to Jessica Simpson and all the early 2000s female celebrities that our society constantly tore to pieces for just existing in their bodies.
You know some of us had our formative years during this time right??? Not all of Gen Z are teenagers...
@@abigailxmary .That's a great point... honestly I was only coming from my own perspective and experience 🙏
I was in my 30's in the 2000's and was consistently disgusted by the body shaming young women were put through. The super-skinny, size 00, "lollipop head" standards were disgusting. I lived in L.A at the time and worked in the entertainment industry. The only way most women were able to achieve and maintain this standard was by literal starvation and drug use. They lived on coffee and, if they could get it, Ritalin and/or cocaine.
Fuck Gen Z 😂
I am 35 now, and in the early 2000's I was severely impacted by the skinny standard.
I showed my boyfriend the photo she was body-shamed for, and he said "society is disgusting".
It's that freakin belt lmao her body is lovely
And the jeans weren’t flattering as well. Beautiful girl tho
She did not even look overweight. I'd bet most of the people who were body shaming her were though.
Lol you’re single
I have to be the lone masculine POV here on this channel, it seems. I'd keep a close eye on your "BF". He's sus AF.
the industry have failed her .. her dad failed her too
im glad her fashion line got so much success she deserve it
Can we get a deep dive on Ashlee? Her career got destroyed over something that most artists do as a standard - using backing vocals. The album that followed her debut was such a beautiful emotional album detailing the aftermath. It was a slept on piece of art and I’d love to see her career dived into
I brought her second album. Love and the other singles were solid.
The 'Chicken of the Sea' moment was simply ICONIC. I ❤️ her!
nick's face when she said it!
Iconic, but not in a good way. She gave dumb blondes a bad name.😂
She was definitely playing it up for the reality TV show. There's no way she is that stupid 😂 I really hate the dumb blonde act. Because you can tell it's not even authentic. It's the crap I would pull as a 15 year old because I thought it was cute but people were just annoyed by it. And Nick just seemed fed up with her . Which isn't a healthy marriage
The interview with Howard Stern is appalling! Why would Nick even entertain those kinds of questions? 100% none of their business.
cuz he's a scumbag
I really doubt that he had any level of boundaries were understanding other people's emotions. I knew his younger sister, specifically their parents sent his one younger sister to a troubled youth facility around 2008 to 2010 and I was there with her and I heard some really fucked up shit about their parents and how they raised them to act. His siblings have mental illnesses because of abuse, and I wouldn't doubt if he has some type of mental health issue as well that clouds his judgment.
oh howard stern is despicable, i don't think there's anyone he had a sensible interview with
@brokenfoxproductions this confirms my theory he has Narcissist Personality D/O
@@lillyfox2537oh for sure. If u watched their show, it’s pretty blatant.
These "deep dives" are amazing...please keep them coming!!
I know all these stories, but I love this channel and I will continue to watch ☺️
I grew up in this era. And I had no clue how horrible Jessica was made to feel about herself. She is so stunning in every shape and form. Goodness, we all owe her such a huge apology. And if we can’t say sorry to her, let’s have some compassion for ourselves in her honor. Let’s embrace ourselves just the way we are. Sending each and everyone who reads this love. ❤🫶🏼
Nick Lachey and Justin Timberlake were two of the absolute worst boyfriends of the late 90s early 2000s pop culture.
Nick has escaped a lot of fire and needs to be held accountable for how awful he treated Jessica.
Totally agree. Now, when I rewatch clips I remember from the late 90's/early 00's, I'm appalled. They and other "heartthrobs" like Ashton Kutcher were such doughbags, and we all apparently thought that was normal.
@@urbannsquirrelwe call it heart breakers here in our language, maybe y’all should too, it’s more fitting most of the time anyway
Made accountable how? And to who, you? Ridiculous.
It wasn’t Nick, it was Jessica’s DAD!! He felt like Jessica was his property even after she married Nick. He even would purposely schedule Jessica to be out of town on their anniversary so they couldn’t be together. Nick had to put up with so much shit from that family. Her Dad was constantly talking about her boobs & her sex life with Nick on the video for Sweetest Sin.
I never followed these people but the little bit I saw of that program Jessica was presented as the stereotypical air headed dumb blonde wife. How diminished and demeaning it must have felt for her. All the pressure to do more, loose more etc. is truly sad. This woman was clearly exploited by daddy dearest, Nick, media companies-there no room for her and her own Identity. IMO, it’s just brutal. Poor woman.
There are many comments already said about the media's disgusting treatment of Jessica (along with Nick and her Dad) which I completely agree with, so I want to say something positive - Jessica's hair extension line was INCREDIBLE. Hers was the only line that had decent shades for gingers/redheads. I wore mine until they literally fell apart.
She has an amazing knack for knowing what women needed in products.
Loved this! We’ll put together. One of her fragrances is my favorite fragrance ever
Poor girl! I had no idea her life had been so hard. Her father is beyond creepy, no wonder she's had so many struggles. I hope her and her new family live a very happy life.
He’s also gay. Which I’m sure was even harder for her as he’s supposed to be a pastor
money =s slavoy . slavory = money.
That's so disgusting that she was shamed while pregnant. Joy was disgusting
Joy IS discusting.
Joy is disgusting. She’s just belligerent and ignorant, that whole show is absolute garbage.
The racist is still disgusting, hateful, and bitter today!
Hearing her say that was so surprising …my gosh it was horrible😮 I knew people and the media went after her massively but had no idea she struggled with alcohol..good gosh
She is still disgustingly this way
Again, you explain things so well on a non-lawyer level so those of us not in the legal arena can understand easily. You are very thorough in your research and explanations. Ty !!
I’m loving this
Let’s not forget that we all ‘met’ Jessica when she was a TEENAGER. People who talk about her physical appearance as she grew up, mentioning weight gain, well THAT is part of growing up. Maturing and finding yourself isn’t always pretty, it’s messy and sometimes downright ugly. Anyone who insults someone they DON’T know from behind a computer screen is the true monster.
Wow. What a comment. So true.
I read her book and it was amazing! She really is a beautifully gifted woman who deserved better treatment than she received!
I did, too! Her book was actually really an amazing book to read. It really gave insight into what really happened behind the scenes of her marriage to Nick as well as their reality show.
I want to read her book. I’ve always been fascinated by her. She’s beautiful and very smart imo.
@@gwen08g35 It's a great book. I was honestly surprised by how much she goes into detail about her marriage to Nick Lachey and her current husband, Eric Johnson. As well as her past relationships with John Mayor, Tony Romo, and she describes her emotional connection with Johnny Knoxville. She is open about her addiction to alcohol and hey recovery. I highly recommend it.
I read her first book as well and loved it. I am so ready to read her second book as soon as I have the extra money to do so.
@@gwen08g35 Smart indeed, Gwen. BTW she's intelligent too.
P.S. I completely agree with your comment.
Thanks, girl. Retro 4 life, girl.
I always have loved Jessica Simpson. She is so down to earth! Her clothing line, purses, jewelry, and sunglasses, are so cute, and affordable!
Jessica got the short end of the stick at the beginning of her career. I thought it was so unfair because she is a such a great singer.
I legitimately felt so sad for Jessica when they were talking about her weight. That is the lowest blow to a woman. She is absolutely gorgeous. That’s insanity.
Jessica has always been gorgeous, regardless of her weight & singing ability is absolutely incredible. What all in and out of her life did to her, throughout her experience & rising stardom, was insanely terrible. Thank God she didn’t lose her mind completely, even if she had some lows. Shout out to Nick for not verbally shaming her, but in the same moment, shame on him for openly shaming her, by cheating. And without a doubt, shame on Joe.. idc if they made up, what a monster to do that to her, while giving birth to his grandchild. Disgusting. I pray the best for her & I’m very glad she still found success in the clothing industry. One really would’ve thought her voice would’ve been enough, but the timing was everything. The industry truly sucks.
Agreed, well said. Fat shaming a woman while she’s literally pregnant is so wild
This was gold! I had no idea about the last show.. you’ll have to do an update because she just played big brother
Going back with that experience of her and as well as with Britney and Christina, it was just so amazing that all of them became iconic! All had tough lives.
I think she was humiliated by Hollywood because she didn't sell her soul. They blackballed celebs who don't bow down or sell their souls, that's where all the shaming and no career really comes from. She is stronger than me so glad she made it out on the positive side and rich too. 😊
💯
No, sometimes one person isn't as famous as another. It's just the way it goes.
YUP
Oh she definitely has sold out.
💯
Okay wait WHAT!!! They shamed her while she was PREGNANT?!! Jesus wept 🤦🏻♀️
Right? They did that sooo often especially back then
And Joy Behar needs to have her mouth sewn SHUT. Man, I cannot STAND that woman!!
Kim kardashian was SLAMMED when she was pregnant with I think saint. Many people compared her to a couch…
I was told by doctor to lose a few lbs when pregnant. A certain weight for your body type is for yourself and the baby's health...not looks! And get this (even tho not pregnant) my doctor weighed probably over 200 lbs! She gave me laxative prescription in brown bag along with prenatal vitamins. They were prepackaged and in her top desk drawer. My local pharmacy refused to fill them and said where did you get these? You never give laxatives to pregnant woman!!!! So I called her and she denied giving script which was a lie cause her signature has to be on script! She kept arguing with me. Told her you look in her desk drawer! At the time she kept sending bills for a few dollars I owed her. Wasn't very much. Told her if she sent one more bill I'd report her for the dangerous script she hands out unknowingly! Nasty woman!
@@wendijones5942 omg! I am so so sorry
Shame on those who think shaming someone is “fair game”🤨
Great deep dive. Really enjoyed it. 😊
I’ve personally always thought Jessica to be one of the most beautiful girls on planet earth . Her charm , and humbleness only enhanced her beauty.
I’m glad she is still thriving ❤
Same
Agree! She's so beautiful to me. It's the blonde hair/brown eyed combo, I think. So pretty. ❤
@@rccrn0228I find that very attractive and her natural tan
She was always so beautiful 😍.
To say someone's weight is "fair game," is so sad 😢 There is never a reason to be rude or nasty to anyone. Sure, she's a celebrity but Jessica is also human. She's a gorgeous woman inside and out. I feel for her
I don't get it 🤷♀️ now those same people say that Lizzo has a gorgeous body 😳😵💫🤪💀
I agree. Jessica is bullied for putting on weight(while pregnant) and called fat. And Lizzo is glorified/celebrated for being obese. Severely obese. Make it make sense.
I remember the media being outraged over her being a virgin, and then being outraged when Britney's virginity got called into question....like wtff yall it's their choice, their body.
I know someone that was 115lbs before pregnancy and gained 50lbs during pregnancy and looked normal so I do agree that the focus on being rail thin was off the walls in the early 2000s when they’re criticizing someone for being pregnant.
Why didn't they push her into adult contemporary market with just ballads similar to Celine? The teen pop market is harsh and too sexualized.
Because she is somewhere in between, she has good looks like Britney but not unique voice like her or amazing singing abilities like Celine
Jessica deserved so much more.
Yes she did🙏
Isn't she worth a shit ton of money? Fucking quit it.
I love watching y’all’s channel. It always helps to remind me that celebrities are, in fact, people too. And they go through things just like we do. Here lately I started hating celebrities. But your channel helps humanize them in my eyes. Thank you guys 🫶🏻
Found this channel today and im in love 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
It’s so sick how Nick & Howard Stern discussed their first time like that in the interview. I remember whenever that photo of Jessica in the “fat jeans” came out & was plastered on the cover of every mag cover. I was an early teen at the time & I remember feeling so uncomfortable with how society labeled women “fat” who clearly weren’t anywhere near that.
🙄women who were size 8 and over were considered fat back then. In 1999 I was 14 and had a huge impact on me.
@@ashleytheseeker8480 Shoot, I would say even smaller than that was the beauty standard! It was so ridiculous and unrealistic. I can remember thinking as a kid back then, if I wasn’t a size 0-1, I was “sOoOo FaT”
@@xo.Chelbysame. I was a size 5 in 2004 at 16 I was curvy.. I hated myself and thought I would only be pretty if I was a size 0 😢 looking at pics I was small I literally thought I was disgusting it’s soo sad and no one even ever said to me that I was fat, just that we were made to believe stick thin was the only beautiful💔 now I’m 35 and a size 12 and love myself. So what I like food 🤣 but it sure was a brutal time to be a teen girl :(
Size 8-12 all of my high school days, grew up in the same era… it’s crazy they convinced us we were fat.. still scarred, deal with the body dysmorphia even in my late 30s…
Her reality show was so depressing. Watching it today, you see the divorce coming a mile away
Is it chicken 🐔 or tuna ? 😂
Never watched the show, but Nick said he didn't see their divorce coming at all and it was a total shock to him. Wonder if he was bluffing.
@@davidl570 nick seemed so unhappy. The newly weds is on UA-cam for free to see. He just complained about her the entire time and the last episode they moved out .... And it was clear their marriage was over
@@sarahshanahan2222 Okay, makes sense! Glad he eventually found happiness. Seems like a good guy. Thanks for the info.
@@sarahshanahan2222her assistant and him were always ganging up on her
Finally a youtube that is constantly covering the u told stories!!
You presented this so well ❤ I don't really care much for pop culture And this honestly just autoplayed after my last video But I was compelled to watch because of your presentation And I learned so much about Jessica's story ❤
Ellen bringing up the very photo that hurt Jess so much was really so gross. Even if she was over it
On brand for Ellen honestly. I remember when she showed Justin Biebers nudes during an interview with him. Nudes that were taken by paparazzi without his consent. She's sick honestly.
Ellen has always been a sneaky creep. She always tried to put on a front but even at her "best" if you paid attention you could see the shady things she did, usually trying to play it off as joking. You can see the evil in her eyes. I'm glad her lame fake show is over!
I know!! I watched her show everyday at work and I can’t believe I never noticed how uncomfy all the guests were to be there. I was out here saying how awesome of a person she was. Like a damn idiot 😢
She did this with Selena Gomez also.
Didn't she also force Mariah Carey to drink alcohol to prove she wasn't pregnant (because she wasn't ready to admit it publicly yet)?
She should sue John Mayer for the Playboy interview. What a classless defamation interview
I mean, she admitted she's a 'bad girl' in bed. Said it was her game. So it's not defamation, by definition.
You can’t successfully sue for defamation unless you can prove what was said is a lie. And you certainly can’t sue over an opinion.
Mayer is shady asshole. He did wrong to Taylor Swift and few other of his famous girlfriends.
@mariahclaar7915 because he put it out there by then, regardless he put that out there, if she didn't want that out and she's not comfortable then she has that right
@crystalmoell Defamation is any false information that harms the reputation of a person, business, or organization. She would have to prove she isn't good in bed. You really think she's going to have all of her previous lovers come into court and say, John Mayer was wrong, it's not true, she's a terrible lay? Also, you can't sue for defamation because you don't like what someone said. It's his opinion, and he has freedom of speech. I could state my opinion of you; you would not win a defamation case just because you didn't want me to do that.
I am so glad I listened to this story. I have a new respect for Jessica Simpson. You Go Girl!!! You got my support and I will look for your clothing line now too.
Ommmggg I'm so glad I found this channel
The obsession with "purity" is insane. And telling a teenager that her breasts are "too big" is so damaging! Add to that all of the body- shaming. It's disgusting.
Also, can we talk about the fact that John Mayer has never apologized for his public comments?
(Finally, I have said many, MANY dumb things in my life. I'm very glad there were no cameras around. 😊)
I grew up in church and went to a “Christian” school. They will shame a woman over anything. You’re 14 and your shorts have to be to your knees and you have to wear a t shirt while swimming (how freakin uncomfortable is that?! You need the arms of Jesus to keep you from drowning once it gets wet) but boys can get by shirtless in swim trunks like a normal person 🤷♀️
@@skyegroome223 There's no shame in wanting to wait until marriage. It's the obsession with virginity, specifically girls' virginity, that is creepy. Jessica Simpson, Britney Spears, and other young women were constantly grilled in the media about whether or not they were still virgins.
Especially how sexualized they were. Disgusting.
John Mayer needs a bath 😊
John Mayer? It's rather amusing to me how Jessica went from purity rings to being "addicting" to a man. Y'all need to get a grip...
Thank you for showcasing her story. I was one of those Millennial tweens that was obsessed with her, Mandy, Brit, Christina, and the Spice Girls and the amount of shit all of them endured is insane. More light needs to be shed on this industry so things can finally change. Get these rich old white men out and replaced with better humans.
It is actually 'rich old Jewish ' men...but we are not supposed to say that. Oh, and don't forget the rich old black men...but we are not supposed to say that. Oh, oh, and the rich old woman who went through this themselves, but are happy to put young girls through this for money. Stop saying slogans and do real research....many evil people in the world...but a good deal wind up in Hollywood.
Male singers didnt get the same static.😢
Well done Jess, especially for fighting the alcohol demon. Gosh you deserve so much respect. Hope you feel admired and proud. Love to You xx
I don't think that Nick was defending Jessica about the weight gain because of the words that he used in his statement "big story, huge deal"; I think he was underhandedly insulting her. And how is it 'Fair game" to bully someone?? As a woman I'm shocked by her stance on this! NOONE should ever be bullied -- no color, no gender, no Religion, no body weight... NO ONE SHOULD EVER BE BULLIED!!!
She looked so good and healthy in what they thought was “fat” 🥺
I wouldn’t say her career never recovered after her divorce when you look at A Public Affair which was quite popular. I think she’s done amazingly finding success elsewhere but the media hasn’t gotten over something that happened 15+ years ago.
I met her once in Toronto at the launch of her fragrance. Her sister Ashley came up to me in the audience and said her sister wanted to meet my dog, Sticky. She cuddled with him for a while and I took lots of pictures. When I got home, I found my SD card was gone & there were NO pictures !!!! Great memory.
Regarding that interview of her on Ellen when she was intoxicated and also after when she says she can't even watch that video.
I feel that. I had a problem with alcohol for years and the last time I drank, a few years ago, I totally humiliated myself in front of my whole family. I haven't drank since.
I've had much worse things happen as a consequence of drinking than that, but it was the last straw for me.
She is so talented- sings, writes, is a Mother and wife and great daughter. Kudos, Jess.
She’s an icon she’s a legend she’s a star and she is the moment
She cannot sing. She can carry a tune, at best
I appreciate her for her transparency. That is so rare.
Iam really proud of Jessica after seeing your video. When I think about un-just things that have happened in my life, I draw strength from her life story.
Wow. She is actually very well spoken, articulate and intelligent, I always thought of her as an airhead because of how the media portrayed her. Good for her. She made it this far. 👏
She worked with Tommy Mottolla 😳 I remember Michael Jackson saying he is the devil. Definitely one of the many predators in the industry
Indeed. There were rumors everywhere back then about all those producers. It's never went away, obviously. We need to all around paying for their services since they screw the artists. Literally and metaphorically. They're not our peers and we make them wealthy.
This girl has been so exploited by so many people in her life that were meant to have her back, especially her greedy father. So proud of you Jessica, screw the haters!
Love this! Do Ashley next?
Love the video!.
Another thing you forgot to mention. After the divorce and the fat-shaming, she created a new reality on VH1 called The Price of Beauty. I watched all episodes and it was a very interesting one.
I really liked that show.🥰
Im so proud of Jessica overcoming all the negativity and hardships. I always rooted for her and was disgusted how the media treated her. Bless her and her beautiful family
She is certainly a strong woman! What a horrible industry to be involved with.
I wouldn't say Jessica's career was destroyed. Her clothing line has made her millions
Shes my favorite 90s pop princess and ive always felt she was criminally underrated.
She wasn't really 90s
@jbear3478 True,I guess I group her with the Mandy,Christina and Britney and yes, by dates they were y2k.
Idk it just seems so 90s to me😭
If you ever do a video about Nick Lachey and his family, you should look into the fact that, between 2008 and 2010, Nick's parents sent his younger sister to a residential treatment facility in Gettysburg Pennsylvania where she was abused and witnessed a riot. She and I were at this residential treatment facility at the same time, and everyone knew that her family was rich and that her brother was a popstar, and none of us understood why they sent her to a hole-in-the-wall where children were abused constantly whenever they could actually access better treatment for her depression and other issues. I'm not saying that he had anything to do with it but he was famous and everyone knew that he was off living his best life while she was there with the rest of us. I'm pretty sure she was either in Zion or Emmanuel House, which were both known to be the "violent girl's house" and the "gross girl's house", respectively.
If you dig enough into most of these celebrities pass you will find that they're all involved in some really fucked up shit or their parents were involved in really fucked up shit.
this is my hometown and what the fuck?? where was this
Omg that’s horrible!! How old was she? I always thought I knew everything there is to know about Jess & Nick, but I had no idea that he even had a little sister😲
Nick is trash
I'm not sure how this is relevant.
Thank you for sharing that very much .
I would watch an entire deep dive on her dad Joe Simpson. I remember watching Wendy Williams and every time the family came up she alluded to rumors and drama surrounding him and other men he photographed professionally. But great job as always you guys!!❤
She highly deserves the love she is getting on her brand 💫
The irony of all this despite Christina and Britney having done well musically Jessica is the one who has done well financially and marriage wise being happy now
Christina has done well financially & she's been with the same man for 13 years.
@@michaelgreisinger5255Jessica net worth is more than Christina and Britney combined.
She’s not well mentally and she doesn’t look healthy.
@@swankhoodwas
I was a teen watching Newlyweds, and I always thought Nick was mean to her.I've heard he did some awful stuff during the divorce, too
I feel like he was cheating the entire time
Cheating also with Kim Kardashian
Cheating also with Kim Kardashian
THE EDITING!!!!!!! I’m only 1 min in and just wow
The media and front pages being covered in “Jessica Simpson letting herself go” I think one synapses said she was 130ibs and a size 4 and they were calling her fat. This destroyed me! It was The only time (besides Jon benay stuff because that was scary) that a tabloid had really affected me. I was 18 and already weighed 120ibs and it made me feel giant and fat and unattractive at 18 years old, and I was a size 7 and she was a size 4 and they were tearing her apart. It broke my heart for her and for myself. I literally broke up with a boy because people in school said I was the prettiest girl he dated because he usually dated fat girls and that made me feel fat. I’m 33 now and way more than 130 and I feel like I was so stupid because I was stunning and i’m still very pretty. I haven’t trusted media for a very long time, now I don’t trust government either lol getting older is fun.
The media was relentless against her, I don't know if I would have survived it if it were me. I can't blame her for falling into alcoholism, glad she recovered though. I have to admire the amount of strength she's shown through all this.
I feel like her speech is different since then and she looks different also. I cast imagine what her husband went through while she suffered with it, I'm glad she got better, her kids deserve, he and she deserve it
CAA'S H@rley P@$tern@k who committed K@nye, Britney, Britney Murphy, Amanda Bines, L@m@r Odom, M@c Mills, K@tie Perry, TONSSSSSSSSSS of other CELEBS also treated Jessica when she developed her pill problem. 🤔
I was a fan of her and Ashlee's, but did not realize what she went through with her dad, label, etc. It's so disgusting how the media can talk about vulnerable young women's bodies with no recourse at all. I applaud the ending and the message you included - thank you for putting the focus back on the positive. Jessica looks amazing and I'm excited to see what she will do
Ashlee is an auto tuned, lip syncing cokehead and deserves zero respect.
The first time i heard "I Wanna Love You Forever" on radio, i absolutely began obssesed with that song, i never have seen her, and when i saw her she was like in my imagination but i thought she was in her late 20's in fact she was 19, she is a real diva, Sony should have had turn her into a classy diva with beautiful dress and gown
Holy moly! Was the template for the character Starlight from The Boys based on Jessica Simpson?! So similar.
If youve never tried Jessicas shoe line, get on it ASAP. They are STUNNING and the most Comfortable heels ever. Yall dont see it cuz she’s not in the public eye much anymore (who could blame her tbh), but she is KILLING it right now. Love her
Yes beautiful 😊
Her shoes are amazing! He bra’s are great too!
always admired the shoes
What's the name of her clothing line?
@@ayeesha312Jessica Simpson
Ashley is a success, too. I'm glad that her parents didn't try to get conservatorship of both her and her sister and am glad that Jessica kept her head during the fame and fortune.
Same, Ashlee is also very talented! I'm shocked at how their dad treated them though, very sad
Ashley's career evaporated after her lipsync scandal on SNL.
I hate how blurry cable TV is on youtube, it was super clear on our tv!!! ppl suck at uploading it
It’s crazy how they call her fat, I’ve always thought she had a very healthy body except when she was drinking.
Everyone focuses on how Britney was treated... But Jessica went through some true hell, too. Always loved her 💕
Jessica was very much bullied and mistreated in the media and personally by the people around her which led to her alcoholism. However I feel like it's not anywhere the same to being institutionalized against your will and forced to take high doses of lithium. They also isolated her away from any friends and her own children while also being heavily criticized in the media. Jessica fortunately did have the freedom to step away from it all and create her business and raise her family in peace.
@@SuperBubblyme true. I'm just saying... It's like missing persons cases; some captivate the entire nation... While others go unnoticed. But I do think Jess was worked by her dad like a machine, and she was pretty heavily controlled by others. Thankfully... No conservatorship, as far as we know though. 💕
She said that her self, she said, I saw framing Britney Spears in real life. I don’t wanna talk about it.
@@sheluvssmokedupeyes1 ok.... Then don't talk about it?
