Jessica Simpson recently starred in a new commercial for Chicken of the Sea, poking fun at her 2003 confusion between chicken and tuna on an episode of her reality show “Newlyweds: Nick and Jessica”. In the commercial, her daughter asks her about the tuna and Simpson denies being the one who would be confused by food like that. Jessica moved on from the confusion shown on the show and is happily married with her husband Eric Johnson and together they have three kids.
Jessica Simpson is collaborating with Chicken of the Sea, making light of her infamous confusion about whether it was chicken or tuna, as she embraces the joke and admits that she knows it’s tuna in a new commercial.
Jessica Simpson has come a long way since her reality TV days, but she hasn’t forgotten about the infamous moment when she got confused by Chicken of the Sea-brand tuna. In a new commercial for Chicken of the Sea, Simpson’s 11-year-old daughter Maxwell asks her what she’s eating in that packet. In a lighthearted response, Simpson clarifies that it’s tuna and playfully tells Maxwell not to get confused by it, referencing her own past confusion.
Who can forget the iconic moment when Simpson, then married to Nick Lachey, expressed her confusion about whether she was eating chicken or fish on an episode of their MTV show, Newlyweds: Nick and Jessica? Lachey tried to explain that Chicken of the Sea was the brand, but the moment has lived on in pop culture history. The collaboration with Chicken of the Sea brings the whole situation full circle, with Simpson playfully addressing her past confusion in the new commercial.
Since those early days, Simpson has evolved in many ways. She has ventured into the fashion industry, conquered motherhood, and even navigated the Hollywood dating scene. And while fans remember her as the somewhat “dumb blonde” in Newlyweds, she’s proving she can laugh at herself and turn that famous moment into a lighthearted commercial.
As for Simpson’s personal life, she has since moved on from her marriage to Lachey and is now happily married to Eric Johnson. She shares three children with Johnson, while Lachey has also moved on and started a family with his wife Vanessa Lachey. With the Chicken of the Sea partnership and her thriving family life, Simpson is showing that she’s living her best life with a sense of humor and a touch of nostalgia.
