NOT Drunk on HSN
9/18/2015 9:46 AM PDT BY TMZ STAFF
EXCLUSIVE
WOODLAND CA (IFS) -- Having observed Ms. Simpson over the years, it is with some certainty, that she was just being Jessica. A little over excited and really a lot of fun. She sold out of her entire catalog on the show. -KHS
IT'S JUST WHO SHE ISHSN
Jessica Simpson wasn't drunk during her HSN debut and you'd know that if you watched the entire two-hour segment ... which would be more painful than eating glass.
Sources close to Jessica say the clip circulating of her giggling and slurring is just part of her personality that surfaces from time to time. They say for the lion's share of her time on the show, she was lucid and polished.
They say 2 hours without a script creates inevitable less than perfect moments.
An HSN source also says she was not drunk.
Fact is ... HSN is singing her praises, saying Jessica really knows how to drive a sale.

Grace Jones upcoming autobiography ‘I’ll Never Write My Memoirs'
Grace Jones Hits Out At Today’s Popstars Including Miley Cyrus, Lady Gaga & Rihanna
BY ADMIN_US · SEPTEMBER 10, 2015
Iconic singer Grace Jones has hit out at several of todays pop stars in her upcoming autobiography ‘I’ll Never Write My Memoirs’.
Grace Jones released an extract of from her new book, out September 29th, viaTime Out Magazine.
In the extract, Jones states how trends “come along” and go and how she’s been copied by modern pop stars who have no “long-term vision”.
Jones writes, “Trends come along and people say, ‘Follow that trend’. There’s a lot of that around at the moment: ‘Be like Sasha Fierce (Beyonce). Be like Miley Cyrus. Be like Rihanna. Be like Lady Gaga. Be like Rita Ora and Sia. Be likeMadonna.’ I cannot be like them – except to the extent that they are already being like me.”

“I have been so copied by those people who have made fortunes that people assume I am that rich. But I did things for the excitement, the dare, the fact that it was new, not for the money, and too many times I was the first, not the beneficiary.”
Jones adds, “The problem with… the Nicki Minajes and Mileys is that they reach their goal very quickly. There is no long-term vision, and they forget that once you get into that whirlpool then you have to fight the system that solidifies around you in order to keep being the outsider you claim you represent. There will always be a replacement coming along very soon – a newer version, a crazier version, a louder version. So if you haven’t got a long-term plan, then you are merely a passing phase, the latest trend, yesterday’s event.”
Jones also hit out at the the likes of Kanye West, Katy Perry and FKA Twigs as her “pupils”, offering the advice: “This is what I would say to my pupil: you have become only your fame, and left behind most of who you were. How are you going to deal with that? Will you lose that person forever? Have you become someone else, without really knowing it? Do you always have to stay in character for people to like you? Do you know that you are in character?
“I would say fame is all well and good if you want to take it to another level. If you have some greater purpose. Me, I am just a singer, on one sort of stage or another, who likes to have an audience, but not all the time. Listen to my advice; I have some experience. In a way, it is me being a teacher, which is what I wanted to be. I still feel I could go into teaching. What is teaching but passing on your knowledge to those who are at the beginning? Some people are born with that gift. With me, the teaching side morphed into the performing side. It’s in there.”
