Why Jessica Simpson Hasn't Watched Reality TV Since 'Newlyweds' | Full Interview

people, but music is really all that inspired me to get sober. and write the book because I realized when I went down to my studio, even though I was in the comfort of my own home, I had a drink, the pain I was about to experience through the lyrics and how hilarious it is because I'm a soulful writer. and everything I sing I wanted to have. The purpose wanted to mean something and that's why I didn't know where these songs were going to go because they were very poetic and deep and they took you to another place and they would have been lyrics that people wouldn't have wanted.

I understood it and I didn't even understand it at the time, but once we wrote the memoir and all that came together, I thought we had heard these songs because I feel like I had a strange premonition, yeah, that things in my life needed. change and really those songs are my saving grace, honey, that means I don't see anything, maybe I should have seen it coming, the devil on my shoulder, there are six songs and I'm not with a record label anymore, so I can give that to the fans and/or the reader or listener. I can just give it to you like you know, a part of my journey any way you want, you're the boss, I'm the one.

The way I want it to be exactly doesn't have to be through the label and the songs don't have to be chosen from that way, no one tells you what to wear and you know how to be because now I know, congratulations on the book and sobriety and you've grown a lot through this, I know, thank you for sharing it with us.
