It’s been a hot second since we’ve heard from Ashlee Simpson-Ross — and we’re happy to report she’s been doing great and totally owning that flubbed Saturday Night Live performance we remember so fondly!
Now, years after taking a big step back from the limelight, Jessica Simpson’s younger sister is ready to once again show the world the pieces of herself.
VOTE: Who Wore It Better — Ashlee Vs. Evan Ross?
Not only has she put that infamous SNL debacle behind her, she says it ultimately made her “a better person” and helped shape her into the artist she is today, admitting to E! News:
“It’s definitely not difficult to talk about…that was a very long time ago. It’s something that happened to me and things in life happen to you and they make you stronger and they make you a better performer, a better person. I think things like that build your character and your strength and it’s how you handle them.”
The incident helped Ashlee evolve from a moody, messy pop singer into one half of a musical endeavor with her husband Evan Ross — a new sound fans can hear in E!’s upcoming docu-series ASHLEE+EVAN, premiering on September 9.
Teasing how much she’s changed since her last reality show in the early 00’s, the songstress revealed:
“For me, I feel like it’s been such a long time since I’ve been out. I came to a place where I was like, ‘Well I do want people to know where I’m at and who I am in my life.’ I was a teen, angsty girl on my show back in the day and now I’m a woman and a mother.”
What doesn’t kill your career makes it stronger… eventually, maybe.
