Jessica Simpson sings in first TV performance of 15 years

Reading time: 2 minutes

Jessica Simpson is slowly expanding her music comeback.

A few months back, she appeared on stage for the first time in many years.

Since then, she has sung to the point where she has tried unorthodox remedies for the neck.

Now she has taken it to the next level – sang for her first TV performance of 15 years.

Jessica Simpson is then back

Sunday, May 18, Jessica Simpson appeared at American Idol finale.

Is it a little weird for Simpson to perform in real -life singing competition, as she is not one of the people who entered the music industry that way? Perhaps.

But in light of the singer’s first TV performance of 15 years, who’s going to complain?

For her performance, Simpson included an explosion from the past and something new.

She went along with Josh King, a former American Idol Participates to perform her 2005 “These boots are made to go.”

This song, in turn, was a renewal of Nancy Sinatra’s original song.

Then Simpson treated the audience to “blame me”, one of her new songs.

How did viewers react?

Of course, the audience went to social media – including the minefield, which is YouTube comments – to respond to Jessica Simpson’s performance.

“I can tell how much she loves her new music, the soul and the emotions shine bright!” A gusiness.

“So beautiful to see her on stage for the very first time in 15 years!” Another exclaimed.

“It meant too much to her, and besides being nervous, she did well!”

“Wow! She’s unrecognizable. But she sounded good!” A partially critical commentator observed.

“She didn’t sound good,” insisted on someone else who criticized: “And omg, she looks so different so much botox, fillers, plastic surgery, etc.”

One of the weirdest comments we found read:

“I love her, but she consistently makes me uncomfortable when she performs.”

Is ‘American Idol’ in its future?

On Sunday, Jessica Simpson went to Instagram to show a glimpse of her excited general test.

“OMG YES !!! Be a judge and replace Carrie,” suggested an avid commentator.

It’s not a terrible idea, but Simpson deserves better.

Maybe her next performance will see fewer commentators obsessed with her face and don’t look like it did in 2010. Oh, who are we laughing?
