‘A special @hsn event premieres TONIGHT! We’re LIVE at midnight EST and throughout the day tomorrow 11/17! Tune In for holiday favorites, the perfect gifts and a whole lot of fun!’ the mom-of-three’s clothing brand captioned a picture of her.

Earlier this month, Simpson appeared to respond to concern from fans that she was slurring her words in the ‘strange’ ad with a video of her singing along to her 2020 song Party of One.

In addition to passionately reciting the lyrics ‘I don’t give a f**k about you,’ she wrote a lengthy caption, declaring that she’s been alcohol-free for five years while detailing how she blocks out the ‘destructive noise’ of people’s comments and judgements.

She also belted out the chorus of the poignant ballad: ‘Look in the mirror/ Straight in my eyes/ Tell myself I’m not broken/ Just ’cause I cry/ It’s a love song/ Party of one.’

‘I’m not weak ’cause I don’t want to fight/ I am more than my body/ More than my wealth/ I am more than these demons/ Holding me down/ It’s a love song/ Party of one/ I know it’s bad for my health to hate myself.’

Simpson began her caption writing: ‘I needed to be in my studio today because this is where I ground myself and heal. As much as I have learned to block out destructive noise…peoples’ comments and judgements can still hurt deeply with their incessant nagging “you will never be good enough,”’ she began her caption.

‘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.’

She went on: ‘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 also angry and defensive — like some of you.’

Struggling: ‘As much as I have learned to block out destructive noise…peoples’ comments and judgements can still hurt deeply,’ she wrote

No alcohol: ‘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,’ she added

‘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.’

‘A little advice…live inside your dreams and move through them. Don’t give up on yourself because someone else did. Stay true to YOU. It has worked for me in this chaotic life thus far. Nothin’ and nobody will rob me of my joy. Ya might come close but it is mine to own. Yours should be too.’

It comes after Simpson sparked concern while giving a tour of her three-year-old daughter Birdie’s bedroom in a recent Pottery Barn Kids ad, where she appeared to slur her words.

Following the Pottery Barn video fans began to show concern over her weight and speech, with one pointing out the singer’s ‘slurred’ words. Another one wrote, ‘This makes my heart hurt. She looks so sick.’

‘I think the comments are pure concern, not hating,’ someone else added. Another person wrote, ‘Why does she talk like that now.. it’s just strange, it’s in every video of her talking. Like she is trying really hard to get the words right.’

After opening up about her impressive weight loss journey and feeling comfortable enough to wear a bikini again, the star put her svelte physique on full display in a cheetah-print maxi dress with a thigh-high slit and plunging neckline.

In the video, she gives fans a friendly ‘welcome’ to her little girl’s room, which she reveals was designed by both Pottery Barn Kids and herself.

Blink twice: ‘Blink twice if you need help jess,’ another follower commented

More worries: The concerned comments continued: ‘Something is wrong here’

Is she ok: ‘Tell me I’m not the only one that hers her voice being totally slow… is she ok!?!?’

‘I was really drawn to the geometric prints and color scheme. This really, to me, is Birdie’s personality,’ the mother-of-three gushed.

Birdie’s room was adorned with beautiful flower wallpaper, a plush, oversize giraffe toy, black and white striped pillows and a tree house twin-over-twin bunk bed.

While speaking about the whimsical space, Simpson said she doesn’t ‘think there’s any risk you can’t take’ in design.

Cute smiles: Birdie and Jessica beamed while showing her bedroom

In the footage, she can be seen smiling as she read a book to her youngest, before they sat down at a small desk and started drawing.

In September, Simpson addressed her 100lb weight loss, which she lost in 2019 after having her three children; Maxwell, Ace and Birdie.

The star revealed to Extra’s Terri Seymour that what really helped her slim down was changing her menu.

‘I went to a nutritionist, and I needed to get my eating habits right,’ she said. When asked if she feels ‘healthy,’ the siren said: ‘I absolutely feel healthy.’

She added, ‘I don’t know. I feel like my old self before I had children and all the hormones going wild.

‘I feel younger, actually. I have a lot more energy and yeah, I get to wear all the clothes that are in storage that I saved for Maxwell and Birdie. Maybe Birdie will outgrow them because Maxwell has already outgrown me!’

For kids: Jessica held Birdie while promoting her collection on Instagram

She works out more often: her trainer is Harley Pasternak.

And she follows Harley’s Body Reset Diet plan, which includes three meals a day to ‘keep the metabolism humming’ as well as smoothies and snacks.

Junk food is a rarity but sometimes she cheats with sweets like powdered donuts.

Terri asked, ‘Why are people obsessed with your weight and how you look? Have you gotten used to it?’

‘Oh, gosh, no,’ she said. ‘Would any woman?’

And she added sometimes the insults get to her.

Jessica said, ‘I’ve been criticized, and it hurts, but I’ve been every weight and I’ve been proud of it. I decided, “Okay, everybody is going to talk about my weight all the time, I might as well make money off of it and turn it into a business of selling clothes and acceptance.”‘

As far as always being known as Daisy Dukes from her film Dukes Of Hazzard, she said she is fine with it.

‘Lynda Carter warned me on the set of Dukes of Hazzard. She was like, “I will always be Wonder Woman and compared to Wonder Woman, and that’s what you’re doing here as Daisy Duke. Just know the words ‘Daisy Duke’ will follow you for the rest of your career,”‘ said Simpson.

The star talked her fashion empire too; she took control of the Jessica Simpson Collection last year.

Simpson said it feels inspiring to control her company.

She went on, ‘I still feel like I have someone to answer to. And then I’m like, “Okay, it’s just us 10 girls.” We got this, but everything is growing. We’re having our biggest quarter that we’ve had right now in, like, eight years, so my mom and I knew we could do it, and we’re doing it and I just, you know, I feel very blessed.’

She IS Daisy Duke: Terri asked, ‘Why are people obsessed with your weight and how you look? Have you gotten used to it?’ ‘Oh, gosh, no,’ she said. ‘Would any woman?’
