Jessica Cries After Performing Song About Nick

She fought back the tears on stage, but moments after Jessica Simpson rocked the "CBS Early Show" with a song that was once an anthem for her relationship with Nick Lachey, the emotions apparently became overwhelming.

Audience members probably didn't expect Simpson to belt out her 2004 hit "With You," but she did. The most shocking moment, however, came minutes after she finished her performance. Jessica can be seen shaking and crying, as her BFF/hairdresser Ken Paves attempts to console her. Was it the song's subject or was her throat hurting?

Either way, "With You," which was released during the peak of "Newlyweds" fame, featured a music video that attempted to parallel the hit show. In it, Nick and Jessica can be seen playing around in their mansion, and making light of the shows most memorable moments (i.e. Jessica's infamous Chicken of the Sea moment).

32. She 's under a lot of strain. Her dad pimps her out to all these shows & puts her in movies & was the break ~up of her & Nick. I blame the dad.

35. I saw Jessica do a stupid MTV special titled "Public Affair".....Why did I watch it?? I HAVE NO IDEA! LOL...anyway, she sang a song "fly" (the Dixie Chicks had recorded it as well on their CD "FLY")....and by the end she was crying & had to stop singing...as her voice crackled & whatever.....it was such a show. I couldnt belive she was doing it. It was so pathetic......it just makes me hate her even more. SOOOOOOOO FAKE!

36. Some of you can be really mean! Is this necessary? Jessica is a human being and has feelings. Does it make you feel good to slam someone you don't even know? You don't know what's going on in her head or what she feels and you have the nerve to put her down. Where's your compassion?

37. All of this stress must be taking it's toll on her. She is getting chubby. She is still cute as a button though. She just needs to relax and time will heal all.

38. She's crying out of embarrassment! Mom was right, jessica isn't that dumb, she knows she is making an ass out of herself, but really, cracking up in public won't win her sympathy.

39. She clearly mouths to someone, "I can't sing". Are you that desperate for stories?

40. #8, you got it! She is faking to promote her album. Heartache worked so well for Nick. Except for the little facts that he can crank out some pop tunes we'll listen to, and he's had his grief from being thrown out of the marriage, and moved on.

41. I used to really like her, but when she started acting so stupid and retarted, it was hard to continue to like her. And then she started singing really weird!!!! Doing all these weird hand movement and making her lips look ridiculous, she never used to do that before. I can't even watch her sing anymore its so annoying. But I still think she has a right to her privacy. Whether Nick cheated on her, or she just didn't like his new found popularity, they are divorced and are both entitled to their own feelings and relationships. Who cares whether you hate her or not, doesn't mean she doesn't have a right to be upset about something, even if it was her choice.

42. Very astute observation Christopher! Too bad people don't realize that celebrities are human too as they pick them apart in public. BTW, I loved your great-parents. I grew up watching their shows. I realize that the famous ask to be where they are in the public and they know the risk but it doesn't make them any less human, nor is a free pass to completely judge them in such a negative light. Their money and fame doesn't automatically heal a broken heart. Have we become so jaded that we cannot offer another human being the benefit of the doubt or some basic compassion. Jessica is not stupid and if she is pulling publicity stunts, guess what; it takes a lot these day to build and keep a career. Have you critics never done anything to promote yourself when the time was right? A little empathy and compassion goes a long way! I say God bless her and Nick and help them to find peace and happiness as well as all of us.

43. Jessica is not faking anything. It's quite apparent she still loves Nick very much. She might have been the one who filed for divorce, but nobody knows the reasons why. Until then, it is very wrong to judge someone, not knowing the real story. Jessica will always be a brave individual, to go thru a divorce, for all the world to see, and with all the cruel comments about her. She is a classy, beautiful girl, and I wish her all the good luck in the world. TEAM SIMPSON

44. Tina, you seem to have an excess of sympathy and wanting to help - why don't you get off the computer and find some real live people who could benefit?? Feeling sorry for celebrities is a waste of time, you don't even have a clue what is going on, just what their PR wants to feed you. So go, feed the hungry, do something to make the world and save the sermons for your kids.
