Jessica Simpson Responds to Fans Concerned About Her Sobriety

PARTY OF ONE –

Nov. 7, 2022 – Jessica Simpson has assured her fans that while she appreciates their concern for her health and sobriety, their misplaced comments still hurt. The pop star posted a video of herself to Instagram on Sunday night in which she animatedly sings along with her 2020 song “Party of One,” using the caption to address the recent comments she received regarding her now-viral Pottery Barn commercial that questioned her sobriety. Simpson continued, “The most important thing I have learned through the last 5yrs without alcohol being a guard for escapism, is that I CAN and ALWAYS WILL get through it. I am capable of pretty much anything I care enough about to put my mind to. I am present. I am deeply inspired. I am determined. I am honest. I care about other people. After grounding myself just now with my voice and the lyrics across my heart, I feel compassion for the opinionated hate that some people can so effortlessly just blurt out with such intensity on social media or in the media in general. We all have our days of wanting to be, look, do, and feel better. Nobody is alone with that feelin’ that I can promise you. I woke up at the same time anxious and insecure but also angry and defensive — like some of you. I know what works for me and that is to let go and simply sing while lookin directly inside the mirror, straight in my eyes to really see and understand myself. I can connect with my heartbeat. I am stable and strong. I am home.”
