Jessica Simpson just got real about the early 2000s pop wars, and honestly? It sounds exhausting.

The 44-year-old singer spilled the tea in a new interview, admitting that competing with Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera was like showing up to a Beyoncé concert and trying to outshine the stage lights.

“I was never gonna win,” Jessica confessed to Rolling Stone, probably while dramatically staring into the distance. “I had Britney and Christina ahead of me, selling records like hotcakes at a brunch buffet.”

And the struggle was real. While Britney was busy moonwalking in a schoolgirl outfit and Christina was hitting notes only dogs could hear, Jessica was out here being… well, Jessica.

“I didn’t want to dance. I didn’t want to wear a head mic,” she admitted, because let’s be real—those things look like they belong in a call center, not on a pop princess. “But I did it anyway because Sony was like, ‘Hey girl, we need some of that Britney magic,’ and I didn’t want to let them down. Meanwhile, I was also letting myself down because I wasn’t even singing my own words.”

Oof. That’s deep. But don’t worry, Jessica isn’t just living in the past! She’s still a pop powerhouse. In fact, she just dropped a new single, “Leave,” which coincidentally comes right after her split from husband Eric Johnson. The timing? Impeccable. The message? Crystal clear.

So, while Britney had the snakes, Christina had the growls, and Jessica had the vibes, one thing is for sure—she’s still standing, still singing, and still being her hilarious, unbothered self. And honestly, we love to see it.
