To delve into more intimate aspects of the singer's life, let's first take a look back at her early years. Since she was very young, Jessica already began to show her interest in music, being a singer in the church where her father officiated as a minister.
When she was only twelve years old, she was almost the winner of an audition contest for 'The Micky Mouse Club'. Some time later, Jessica sang the song 'Amazing Grace' on the radio and this began to open doors for her in the music world, so much so that she signed a contract with a famous gospel music label.
Jessica Simpson's successful career
Simpson's career was about to take off and, a few years later, she signed with the Sony record label, something that was a great help for her to start making a name for herself as a singer. Her first official album came out in 1999, entitled 'Sweet Kisses', which included songs like 'I wanna love you forever'.
After that it was a non-stop release of her next albums. A very important step in her career as a singer was her collaboration with Robbie Williams in the song 'Angel'. In addition to this, Jessica and her husband Nick Lachey, former singer of '98 Degress', were the protagonists of 'Newlyweds: Nick and Jessica', a reality show on MTV that eventually led to the end of the couple.

One of the most important people in Jessica's life has always been her father, Joe Simpson. He was the inventor of an innovative formula that would give reality shows a facelift in the following years, catapulting his family to fame.
Despite this, the 2010s were tragic for Joe's life. His marriage ended and rumors began to surface about his sexuality. At the end of 2016 they revealed that he had been diagnosed with prostate cancer and a year later he had overcome it and, to this day, he has more zest for life than ever.
