Nothing says welcome again to TV just like the sounds of… the feedback part.
Whereas most people consider that every one press is nice press, and when you have haters, which means you’re doing one thing proper, I worry that rule of thumb may not ring true for Jessica Simpson. The poor lady can’t catch a break.
This spring, Jessica Simpson triumphantly returned to music, performing for the primary time in fifteen years, shocking the gang at Willie Nelson’s Luck Reunion simply outdoors of Austin, Texas (along with making SXSW appearances). The previous pop star turned actress has stayed out of the limelight for fairly a while, spending a lot of her time elevating her youngsters and operating her enterprise, a really profitable shoe model.
Earlier than Simpson took her hiatus from performing, she tried to do what so many pop artists are doing in the present day and gave nation music a superb outdated faculty attempt together with her final studio album again in 2008. It wasn’t precisely a business success. However together with her getting again within the studio engaged on her newest EP, Nashville Canyon, Half 1, it is sensible as to why she is hitting the stage once more. Nonetheless, her first time again on stage was met with some harsh feedback.
“Somebody must be trustworthy.”
“She and Shania Twain ought to go on tour collectively… ugh.”
“Honey, simply take your shoe cash.”
“I really feel like I went again to my Kansas hometown, inhabitants 2500, and the homecoming queen who by no means left is singing karaoke on the solely bar on the town.”
“It’s time the pretend pals inform her the reality.”

Final night time, on the American Idol finale, Simpson hoped to redeem herself together with her first televised efficiency in fifteen years. She took to the stage in a sequin robe with Western equipment to carry out her new single “Blame Me,” and to sing “These Boots Are Made For Walkin’” with contestant Josh King. Whereas Simpson noticed this as her large comeback, followers didn’t see it like that.
Not solely did she get harsh suggestions for her vocals, however she additionally received brutal criticism for a way she kissed the microphone throughout her efficiency (in addition to the quantity of lip filler). Whereas I don’t assume that Simpson sounded all that unhealthy singing her new single “Blame Me,” (undoubtedly wants some work however the voice remains to be there), she did look just a little awkward on the finish, nearly not sure of the place the track was supposed to finish. Nonetheless, I do agree with a number of the suggestions throughout “These Boots Have been Made For Walkin’.” She’s placing a number of effort into the efficiency, and it’s not panning out in her favor.
Check out the video for your self earlier than you dive into the commentary on-line.
I’m unsure I’d have the arrogance to come back again to the stage after fifteen years like Simpson, however the total commentary is that she’s fairly rusty and never placing her greatest foot ahead. Some customers on X (previously Twitter) even identified that judges like Luke Bryan appeared to be cringing whereas she was on stage.
