Jessica Simpson opts for 'new and youthful' hair colour
Jessica Simpson wanted to do something "new and youthful" with her hair. The 'Use My Heart Against Me' singer showed off her "desert sunset blonde" look - dirty blonde with sunkissed highlights - on 'American Idol' over the weekend and her colourist Rita Hazan explained the 43-year-old star was keen to "switch it up" and couldn't be happier with the results. Rita told People magazine: "The must-have in my kit that I use on all my clients is Glaze's Supergloss. For Jessica, we used the shade Vanilla Lights — her perfect match to tone down brassiness in her highlights. "It delivers a rich, shiny payoff, and a silky, polished finish that leaves hair looking refreshed and healthier after just one use. "She was so happy to get a new look and switch it up. She always had a super buttery blonde — this time we wanted something new and youthful. "I think it's a fresh and young vibe, but with confidence and a slight attitude to represent her mood. We have been in each other's lives for so many years that there's personal and professional trust." Rita has worked with Jessica for years and they kick off their sessions with a "hair party", in which they exchange gossip and share a laugh. She said: "Usually I fly in from New York, and we have a hair party in her bathroom with a few of the same people every six weeks. "First, we catch up on life for a quick second, and then continue to laugh and tell very personal stories about what we all got into for the month. It's actually hysterical. I don't think there was one time I went there and didn't laugh hysterically." Jessica recently explained she has "no rules" when it comes to her fashion inspiration, though she often gets ideas from online pinboard Pinterest. Discussing her latest Walmart for Jessica Simpson Collection, she told People magazine: "For me, personally, style evolves as I do on a personal level, through each stage of my life. "That's the inspiration for my music right now ... Nashville Canyon is an evolution of past, present, future, versatility, femininity, openness and confidence. "Anything from a vintage printed wallpaper in a movie I am watching or a performance piece displayed in an old documentary. "Everyone who knows me knows I am observant. I never miss a detail. Inspiration comes at me in visceral ways, every single day. And I honestly don't know what I would do without Pinterest."

Jessica Simpson drinks snake sperm to improve vocals, says it tastes like 'honey'
When it comes to maintaining her vocals, Jessica Simpson is willing to do whatever it takes. On Friday, the "With You" singer revealed the secret behind her powerful voice that has earned her mega success throughout the years. "They're like, 'What are you drinking?' It's like this Chinese herb thing," she said in a video posted to Instagram. Jessica Simpson Is 'Very Single' After Eric Johnson Heartbreak "I'm like, 'I don't know. My vocal coach told me to drink it.' They googled the ingredients and … snake sperm. It's like a honey. If you want a good vocal, you gotta drink snake sperm," she said while laughing. App Users Click Here To View Post Read On The Fox News App Simpson, who split from husband Eric Johnson earlier this year, has been busy creating her latest musical project, "Nashville Canyon, Part 1," a collection of five soul- and rockabilly-infused tunes which was released on March 21. "Discovering this music is something I did on my own," Simpson recently told People magazine. "Thank God I had Nashville, it was just a way of me owning myself and declaring it." Simpson described her first single, "Use My Heart Against Me," as "a sexy song to write." "I woke up with that lyric in my head," she said. "It's kind of craving someone that you want again, and you don't care if your heart is used against you – if it's just for one night. Like, give it over, just for the experience again." "I didn't necessarily want it at the beginning of writing this record. I was in a different place," she continued. Like What You're Reading?

In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, Simpson reflected on her past, saying she knew she wasn't going to be "the manufactured pop star that abided by every rule" in the 2000s. "I was never going to win because I had someone like Britney [Spears] and Christina [Aguilera] ahead of me, who were selling so many more records," Simpson said. "I didn't want to dance, I didn't want to wear a head mic. But I agreed to do it because I worked for Sony, and I didn't want to let them down, and I felt like I was constantly letting people down, even myself, probably because I wasn't singing words I wrote." Click Here To Sign Up For The Entertainment Newsletter Following the advice of her then-manager, Simpson began writing her own songs and hit number one with her pop hit, "With You." "When I've had success in my life is when I've just been honest and real," she told the outlet. "I've never gotten a chance to do that in music until now."

Jessica Simpson celebrates emotional milestone after suffering ‘deepest heartbreak of my life'
Jessica Simpson said an emotional 'thank you' to the audience for her first performance in 15 years, as she celebrated 'coming back home to the best part of myself'. The singer, actor and designer – who sold two million copies of her debut album, Sweet Kisses, when she was 19 – has not performed live since 2010, the year she released her most recent album, the holiday collection Happy Christmas. However, Simpson, 44, seemed thrilled as she delivered a lively set on Wednesday 12 March at the Recording Academy's Austin Chapter Block Party during SXSW festival in Austin, Texas. She debuted four new songs, including 'Use My Heart Against Me' and 'Leave', possibly inspired by her separation from husband Eric Johnson, with whom she shares three children, in January. She also sang covers of 'Son of a Preacher Man' and 'These Boots are Made for Walking', Rolling Stone reported, the latter of which featured in the soundtrack to her 2005 film The Dukes of Hazzard. Later, she observed the significance of the moment in a message to her followers on social media. 'Last night was my first performance in 15 years,' she wrote in an Instagram post, along with several clips of her performance. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Jessica Simpson (@jessicasimpson) 'It was an emotional coming back home to the best part of myself. Thank you for embracing me. You know that I have so much to say, but this lucky voice gets to soar again tonight. I love y'all. More to come…' Simpson kicked off her music comeback last week with the official release of 'Leave' from her forthcoming EP, Nashville Canyon: Part 1, followed by 'Use My Heart Against Me'. 'Leave' describes a relationship that has grown cold after an apparent betrayal: 'What we had was magic/ Now you've made it tragic/ Giving her what you gave to me/ Now the well that you drank from is empty.' In a YouTube video about the making of the song, Simpson said it was one of the most difficult songs for her to write but she 'needed to get it out'. In an interview with The Cut last month, Simpson told her sister Ashlee Simpson that she had been through 'the deepest heartbreak of [her] life'. The 44-year-old actor confirmed that she and the former NFL player have broken up in a statement shared on Monday 13 January, explaining that amid the challenges of their separation, she and her ex are focused on their children: Maxwell, 12, Ace, 11, and Birdie, five. 'Eric and I have been living separately navigating a painful situation in our marriage,' she told People. 'Our children come first, and we are focusing on what is best for them. We are grateful for all of the love and support that has been coming our way, and appreciate privacy right now as we work through this as a family.' Simpson sparked speculation in November that she was getting divorced with a cryptic post on social media, as she wrote: 'Interviews in my Nashville music room where I unearthed my singular magic. 'This comeback is personal, it's an apology to myself for putting up with everything I did not deserve.' Nashville Canyon: Part 1 is scheduled for release on 21 March.

Jessica Simpson Announces First Album in 15 Years, Releases New Single "Use My Heart Against Me"
Yara Sameh Jessica Simpson is making her highly anticipated musical return with a brand new album, "Nashville Canyon", which is set for release on March 21. Simpson celebrated her new era by dropping the project's lead single, 'Use My Heart Against Me,' representing her departure from pop to channel her Texan roots with a mix of Americana and soul. The superstar worked with Fancy Hagood, Natalie Hemby, Lucie Silvas, and Trent Dabbs in Nashville to bring her music to life, as she embraces overcoming a series of heartbreaks, including a separation from her longtime husband Eric Johnson. 'I've lived through the hardest parts of life, and music is what has brought me back,' Simpson said of the project in a press statement. 'Nashville Canyon is for anyone who's ever been told who they are or how they should live their life. It's about finding your true voice and the courage to be exactly who you are.' She added, 'Music makes you un-become to become, and through this process my soul has been pulled to the very place it belongs. This music is mine to share, and it's not just about me—it's about everyone who's ever felt lost or overlooked. I want to remind them that they're not alone.' Simpson's last music release was her 2009 holiday album, "Happy Christmas". Throughout her music career, she dropped seven studio albums, starting with her 1999 debut project, "Sweet Kisses". The second part of "Nashville Canyon" will be released in early summer 2025.
