Jessica Simpson may have taken a hiatus from performing, but she’s still just as much of a pro as ever. Appearing on NBC’s Today on July 23, the singer performed her new single, “Fade.” During the performance she experienced a slight wardrobe malfunction as her pale pink corseted dress appeared to slip down revealing her bra underneath. Of course, Simpson kept the performance going without missing a beat.
After the performance, she spoke to hosts of the show on stage and casually laughed off the moment. “Of course, like, I have, like, a malfunction… I think my boob stayed in, so that’s good,” she said with a smile.

Simpson then went on to talk about how it was “healing” to return to songwriting amid her split from Eric Johnson after 10 years of marriage, which was announced earlier this year.
“It was incredibly healing [to write these songs],” she said. “I was in Nashville, it was a crazy time for, my life literally flipped upside down, and I really just had to focus on my purpose.”
She went on, “Trying to just inspire myself to get back up there, have the courage to do it in the face of heart break and the face of like life completely changing. Music saved my life, Nashville saved my life.”

In “Fade,” Simpson seemingly reveals a few hints about the end of the relationship. “You’re as empty as your promise / Go sleep alone in the bed you made,” she sings in the song. Some fans think that the lyric might refer to the fact that Simpson and Johnson began “living separately” towards the end of their relationship.
In January, Simpson said to Us Weekly in a statement, “Eric and I have been living separately navigating a painful situation in our marriage. Our children come first, and we are focusing on what is best for them.” The pair share kids Maxwell, Ace, and Birdie.
Just yesterday, Simpson opened up about her romantic life following her split from Johnson while speaking in a video filmed in LAX. “It’s a rough road in the dating world,” Simpson said in the video obtained by the Daily Mail. “I mean I’m not getting on the apps yet.”
