Jessica Simpson appeared on a live HSN broadcast on Thursday night, touting jeans from her Jessica Simpson 10th Anniversary Collection. It didn’t take long for viewers to notice that Simpson slurred her words, and appeared either drunk or high during the broadcast.
While promoting her Jessica Simpson “Kiss Me” Super Skinny Gray Jeans, Simpson rambled on about sister Ashlee Simpson, and how she shares jeans with her husband, Evan Ross.
“Ashlee is like the best at wearing gray. My sister…Like, she’s very rock ‘n’ roll, but there’s something about a gray that’s like…sexy. Maybe it’s her and her husband, they share jeans…I have no idea…I don’t know. There’s just something hot about them,” Jessica Simpson said.
OMG! Was Jessica Simpson drunk (as many fans suggested) during her HSN appearance last night? http://t.co/DULSIatOl3 pic.twitter.com/rJWrMgDC9P

HSN fans began Tweeting, telling the show’s producers to get Jessica Simpson off the air.
Really @HSN? This is embarrassing and inappropriate. Get her off the air, she's obviously under some kind of influence. #JessicaOnHSN

Jessica Simpson’s mom, Tina, appeared on the HSN broadcast with her, and one Twitter user thought she appeared under the influence as well.
Poor Colleen. Jessica is a disaster ! Mom isn't acting the best either. #JessicaOnHSN

At this point, Jessica Simpson hasn’t issued any kind of a statement explaining what her issue was during Thursday night’s HSN broadcast.
Did you see Jessica Simpson selling jeans on HSN? Did you think she appeared drunk or high?
An aside: the Jessica Simpson 10th Anniversary Collection jeans were a hot seller. Apparently fans don’t care that the face behind the name was obviously impaired.
