jessica simpson on the today show

[theodorakol]

she is amazing. i love her

[theodorakol]

she is amazing. i love her

[HowdyDoodyIsMyIdol]

she sounds AWFUL

[ellew12]

i feel bad for her i love her heaps and she probably didnt wanna do that performance cuz she knew it wouldnt be good with her throat like it was but i'd say she was under contract or something

[BeingME55]

i think that she sounds fine...(considering her sick)... and she looks fine!!!

[ThisTrumpet]

Really awkward at best, and pathetic at worst!

[ThisTrumpet]

And what's with the stripper spike heels with a scarf shirt?? Her legs are long enough and her chest is too small to be covered up by some lame scarf! What happened to stick it out and be proud?! She could have at least have worn something that detracted from her singing, like she usually does anyway! There is no way to inject intelligence, so she's out-of-luck in the brains department!

[ThisTrumpet]

And fire her wardrobe and fashion people-this outfit is HIDEOUS! It looks like she got into a fight with some pantyhose and let her goth niece paint her fingernails black, then someone picked a rose out of her grandmother's garden for her hair, and she borrowed her mother's jewelry! This performance would be what I would call the "CAREER-BREAKER"!

This is why I have NEVER bought her music, and Simon would have kicked her off "American Idol" and told her to keep singing karaoke at the local bar!

[ThisTrumpet]

Who is her PR person to let her perform so poorly on the "TODAY" show at the release of her new album, no less?!

FIRE HIM OR HER!

[mersaities]

at least she sings live and has the balls to sing even with a messes up throat

[MrxCasz]

Exactly!!

[loveyoubabesx]

give Jessica a rest. at least she has the guts to go up there and sing. shes amazing, if you disagree, then whats the point in watching her videos?

[lauraken]

I think that Jessica always gets a bad rap, and I don't get it. I give her so much credit for just getting up there! I am a entertainer, and It is hard to perform when you are not feeling good. She is a trooper, and I think that people should give her a break!

[CasZjEE]

Unlike the other artists, Jess even performs with a bruised vocal, AND she sings live, AND she song 2 songs at this show!!!

Emmm,, she sucks?? =O

[jacksondevotee]

3:20, are you serious?

[peaches150]

At least she actually sings!!!

[markymarc45]

I give her credit for sounding like that with a bruised vocal chord. I know what its like to sing with vocal strain! It sucks! People I would like to hear you sing with a strained vocal chord. :)

[joeyabs77]

whats up with this girl? she cant fucking sing in public. always forgetting the words and sounds like shit when she does get her words right. the stars today are nothing like the ones of the 80's. This bitch wouldnt even make it back then.

[mayrastarr]

I can see the similarity in voice in hers and her sister.

[raincloud52]

She's cute, but I really hate the way she strains her voice, even when she's not sick, and she does this nasty thing to her voice. Eww. I wish she would sing naturally and not go ahhhhhhhh eeee ahhh.

[orangecarrotcake]

She's drinking intestinal juices. Slut!

[maryboberry23]

the simpson girls have vocal chord issues....

[orangecarrotcake]

LMFAO!

[ninyapinya]

now that's what I call being professional. she definitely has throat problems, but she did her best. nice work! :D

[CantGetEnoughTAG]

That outfit is hideous! It makes her look fat! Clearly she's not, just dressed badly.

[xoxWithYouxox]

I love Jessica! She is still my favorite artist! Cant wait till her next album!

[joeyabs77]

ur a loser. she sucks

[thesweetestsin17]

love her..miss her and nick tho!

[Spit1025]

Since her split with Nick her career has gone down the tubes.

[sabrosa1411]

I love her voice but it annoys the crap out of me when she makes it sound like this. it's not just cuz of her voice problems. within the past few years she makes her voice do weird things when she sings live and it makes me not wanna listent o her anymore.

[whitechocolate1415]

raspy throat or not she CAN NOT SING

[Vocalz3]

please she clowns

[Valthecatlover]

is she wearing pants ... ick

[Jijjin]

Oops, forgot to add, "Still sounds better than her sister." So that's what happened in the VMA's last year... Okay, now I know.

[Jijjin]

LMAO, even when she had vocal problems she sounds better than her sister.

[bbyxkim]

i agree hahaha

[StrikeFreedom88]

Btw anybody knows whether she has started singing again?

[TopPopVids]

Losing your voice due to a ruptured blood vessel isn't a permanent loss. It comes back soon. She's been able to sing for a while now :P She's working on a new album currently..a country record.

[firemanstud1981]

Too bad. I would hope that she would get something that would NOT allow her to sing for life--she sucks.

[StrikeFreedom88]

Sry.. Its a blood vessel burst. But its amazing she still sounds gd.

[StrikeFreedom88]

Well at least her voice is still nice with a sore throat..

[AvonleaMontague]

She sounds like her sister.

[xxcutie04xx]

not really.

[herire2002]

what a fucked up voice

[soundouss13]

2:32 OMG :p What a fucking ugly head :P

[cybelle2000]

Hahahaha at the end when shes speaking to the presenter she souds like Marge Simpson hahahahah.

Every credit to her for singing though, it must have hurt.

[americanidolfan5]

for a bruised vocal chord, and after hearing how bad it was when she started talking, this is great

[bethxx5]

I respect what she did but is there no way or post poning a record release? If there is she shud have for like a week to rest. But go Jessica, it wasn't her best, but good for the circumstances. xxx

[xodpkbubblexo]

she could have done serious damage to her throat there! Bt i suppose she had someone check it out before she went ahead..i love jess she rocks!!!

[dizzjunior]

Im a Christina Aguilera Fan!!! i give mad Propz to Jessica Simpson, For Caring about her fans and still performing with a sore throat!!! just like christina does.. Love... now i show respects for jessica too.. but Aguilera is still number 1

[felipemagaro]

A Jess é simplesmente linda e meiga !!!! Mesmo não estando bem canta e as pessoas a curtem da mesma forma !!! Simplesmnte linda !! Wonderful and perfect !!

[clarkeb]

the flesh colored short-shorts make it seem like if she really is with nothing but a t-shirt on

[raeisa1]

i think that was the effect she was going for..

[CasZjEE]

Noo, of course not!

You can easily hear that her voice is completely BROKEN (lol). I'm proud of her, even with a bruised vocal she performs, sings live, and gives interviews!!

[55sjm]

it's official the only thing jessica simpson is good for is eye candy

[littlelodge94]

Arr!!! Poor Jessica, She luvs Her Fans alot, I mean she sung with a really bad throat !!! Luv U jess !!! xxx

[88Mersadiez88]

She did great.

[nkb391]

why does she move soooooooooooooooo much!!??

[Pixnsparklez]

I want her outfit!

[jessicasimpsonfan1]

Good try Jess. You did good.:)

[bungalow555]

I LOVE HER outfit..specially the shoes

[iain186]

sammys1 i hope you get fuckinG raped you fucking idiot

[Inelin]

I wonder what it feels like when you have a bruised vocal cord.. like soare throat?

[dcap1]

Oh, I glad you agree with me then she does sing like a baby.

[MileyCandAshleyT1fan]

actually she did not bruise her vocal cord, she bursted a blood vessal and ripped the vocal cord. When you do that it feels way worse than an average soar throat, it feels like there are knives in your throat and it kills like crazy. The exact same thing happened to me 5 weeks ago.

[Spit1025]

Geez, get over it...she talks like a baby too!

[dcap1]

What is with the baby singing?

[tigga911]

Which part of the description didnt u understand?! read it again

[shadyslady1017]

Considering she's losing her voice...she still sounds good! :D

[LeeanneJ89]

i think she is absolutely terrible even when she hasnt lost her voice shes crap

[dancindude03]

She's really good considering she lost her voice and she's still performing!! Rock on jess!!

[willd15]

its so obviously not her singing the voice doesnt match with her lips!!

[Rapedteenager]

probably cause the sound doesnt match the video perfectly dumbass

[kelpinktink]

ashlee sounds like this all the time lol

[kelpinktink]

a though she only had a t shirt on 4 a sec then lol xx

[Cazziejjj]

Maybe it would be better if she just wouldn't sing for a while... Untill her voice is back...

[Cazziejjj]

Her voice WAS wonderfull, it's so sad, she totally lost her voie, I hope her voice is coming back some day... :-(

[Xanusch666]

her voice is soo wonderful =)

[danmur248]

She can sing pretty well. She looks wierd though

[mauilicious91]

ok you people are dumb.. she performs you hate her.. IF SHE DOESNT you complain.. i think you guys are dumb not her.

[beccilovesmatti]

look she is doing it for her fans leave of she has an amazin voice n straining her voice 4 her fans is a true idol

[GenoWorld]

Wow she sounds even worse than she normally does. And in response, how does this prove that she can sing? It proves that she tries haha.

[lenagurl16]

yous need a life

[shkee23]

Wow, how moronic. Why would you even talk, nevermind sing, with a bruised vocal cord? How retarded can she be? Way to possibly cause serious and lasting problems, Jessica.

[vitukrazy]

she´s so young to loose her voice.

[lemonlime05]

this proofs that she can sing wow

[stillafan25]

can you explain how does this shows that she can sing? it shows that she is rather DUMB and a little stupid for stressing her voice like that

[gswarrior15]

ashlee and jessica r great! the simpsons produced very nice offspring. lol

[incantescente]

im sorry for her

[iluvtorres]

i think that jessica is really brave! to get up there and sing even though she hardly has a voice! at least she isnt lip singing like her sister! go jessica!

[nickthespider]

jessica sucks its all about ashlee...DUH!!!

[bungalow555]

she really like to drag her voice especially at the very start of the song when she sings: the real me is a southern girl with her levis on and an open heart"

[gswarrior15]

i love her so much that i hope she does find a true love b4 she gets too old even though i want her! i luv u jessica! and everyone stop criticizing her! she had a throat problem. if u had a throat problem would u have the guts to sing on tv? No u wouldnt! so start appreciatin gods gift to us!

[Victoria555]

soooo annoying!!!

[RENTlover12345]

I feel so Bad for Jess. Having to sing with no voice but hey her fans love her so thats all that matters

[phdgrrl]

PLEASE stop the baby voice and the breathy crap. It's not cute. It's not sexy. It's not professional. It's embarassing....boy, she is surrounded by lousy advice.

[joeyvoh]

She did really good for busting a blood vessel in her vocal chords. Standing novation!! Godd Job Jessica :)

[chewah]

I agree. Her time is definitely up. She's a better singer than that. I don't know why she has to sing like THAT for. All breathy. It's annoying.

[rafacalif]

she sounds like her sister but at least her sister is hot, ur time is up jessica..

[jess1cayami]

ashlee is hot??? hahahaha LOL you make me laugh man! jessica is HOT

[StrikeFreedom88]

I agree with jess1

[rafacalif]

she sounds like her sister...at least her sister i enjoy looking at. jessica ur time is up...

[phinhung]

her she sings a belong to me its soo emotional the beginnig.. this one she sing before for nick but now its like she sings this song because she want to remember the moment when shes with nick before..

[broomhilda290]

you know, if her vocals are strained she shouldnt be damaging them furthur. why did she even attempt that high note?

[cjmtlc]

God, her voice sucks. She sounds like she has a speech impediment when she sings. She didn't sing like that when she first came out.

[kwab]

Of course she didn't.. that's because her vocals weren't shot like they are right now. Aren't you paying any attention?

[dcten]

And I also think the video would've been better if she sang the song naked.

[dcten]

I think its funny that noone sang with her when she stuck the mic out to the audience.

[naluwanian]

Jessica is taking a big risk on this one. She's still got a good singing voice. Her speaking voice is horrible!

[kpar81]

good for her

[Dotcomname3]

real good..way better than i belong to me... real trooper...keep it up.

[deluckey1]

Even though she busted a blood vessel, she still sounds amazing live.

[mikeakaelmo]

amazing, especially for not having much of a voice. jessica is the definition of a true artist.

[gomezproductions]

at 1:40 something, there is this brunette dancing (well trying).. is this a Today Show inside joke.. I keep on seeing her at outdoor performances from the Today show.. doing the same dance.. weird!

[ajay215]

i give her props for what she did

[marielove76]

she shouldnt have done that...that is so so so SO dangerous!! she should just rest her voice for a week....that was a very bad choice

[gayastherainbow]

She is brave and honest. I think this shows a true star. Better than her lipsynching sister.

[modance]

When did she do this performance?

[kgvg]

I´m talking to pdmntpdl

[Laura1115]

Hate to say this...but the crowd really wasn't with her after the song... :(

She shouldn't have sung. I mean, a busted blood vessel in her vocal chord? Bad idea...

[Guhh19]

Still Better them her sister

U.Ú

[815563jr]

she still sings good i love her

[calvinxchange]

As I said.. SHE WAS GOIN TO LOOSE HER VOICE.. i mean she sings beautiful... but she did what christina aguilera did a couple of years... JUST PUSHING THE LIMITS of the voice to sound COOLER... but in fact ended up sounding like screaming.. you can always see in JEssica's face in every performance that SHE IS pushing her limits... Compare Mariah she sings very relax all the time... WELL LEARN TO CONTROL YOURSELD JESSICA !!!!

[kgvg]

Poor girly! but she did a great job!! Jess ROCKS!

[pdmntpdl]

What a dumbass. I hope this leaves her with permanent damage, and we never have to hear her speak or sing again.

[kgvg]

FUCKING IDIOT... SHUT UP

[takatomon]

what a terrible thing to say. i think better yet the world should hope that you suffer permanent death that we may never hear of your pathetic existance.

[babyspears1]

*SNL, lol, she has a great voice in every situacions

[victimlesscrimes]

Yeah at least she tried her best...the exact opposite of her sister on SSL.

[heh1111]

though she couldnt sing that day

she still did a good job

she is awesome

not like others always lip synch...

[Lazereye]

Aww poor girl. She made a commitment and she tried her best. Way to go Jessica!!!

[sparky5041]

Even with her voice "shot", she sounds Britney!!!

[sparky5041]

*better than Britney
