Jessica Simpson Recreates Hilarious 'Newlyweds' Chicken of the Sea Moment

Transcript

00:00 It's not really chicken, it's tuna. So don't get confused by it.

00:04 This time, Jessica Simpson knows it's tuna and not chicken.

00:09 In a new commercial for Chicken of the Sea, the singer, who was joined by her 11-year-old

00:14 daughter Maxwell, pokes fun at her iconic confusion in her early 2000s reality show

00:20 Newlyweds. It starts with Maxwell asking...

00:24 Mom, what are you eating in that packet?

00:26 It's called Chicken of the Sea, but it's not really chicken, it's tuna. So don't get confused

00:32 by it. Who would ever get confused by that? No one. Not your mom.

00:38 It's been more than two decades since the 43-year-old's infamous mix-up while eating a

00:48 bowl of tuna during Newlyweds, a show that followed the marriage of Jessica and her then

00:54 husband Nick Lachey from 2003 to 2005. Is this chicken what I have or is this fish?

01:01 I know it's tuna, but it says chicken by the sea. Is that stupid?

01:11 Following the iconic scene, the singer has been a good spore about the viral moment. In fact,

01:18 in 2017, when Whole Foods had a mix-up with their chicken salad containing tuna, Jessica shared to

01:25 Instagram a screenshot of a Time article saying, "It happens to the best of us."

01:31 After her divorce from Nick Lachey in 2006, Jessica went on to marry former NFL player

01:38 Eric Johnson in 2014. The couple now shares three children, 11-year-old daughter Maxwell,

01:44 10-year-old son Ace, and 4-year-old daughter Birdie. Back in August of 2023, E! News sat

01:51 down with Jessica for an exclusive interview where she opened up about life as a mom and if

01:56 she would return to reality TV with her family. With the new sort of life happening, Nashville,

02:03 moving things to Nashville, would you ever go back to television, take the family, do a family

02:07 show like Your Lives in Nashville? As far as I would go with that would probably be a docu-series

02:13 which Newlyweds was supposed to be by the way. But we actually had a lot of fun doing it. But

02:20 a docu-series or a documentary, I think they wouldn't mind being on camera. My son, maybe not

02:28 so much. Both daughters, definitely entertainers. But my son is an entertainer on the field, I will

02:35 say. So, I mean, it doesn't make him shy or anything like that. He just probably doesn't

02:39 think it's anybody's business. Right. I love it.
