Jessica Simpson Reveals Why She Avoids Watching 'Framing Britney Spears' Documentary

Jessica Simpson certainly has huge respect for pop star Britney Spears, but she might never watch the recently released documentary on the Princess of Pop as the singer-turned-fashion mogul thinks it will give her "anxiety."

In a sneak peek of Simpson's "Tamron Hall" interview, which is set to air Friday, March 26, the singer says why she hasn't watched "The Framing Britney Spears," which features the pop star's downfall and conservatorship battle against her father James Parnell Spears. However, Simpson, 40, is glad that Spears is receiving support following her documentary release.

"If I were to watch it, like, reliving that for me it's like one of those like triggers, you know, it definitely gives me anxiety and I, I lived it," she explained.

"I know Britney and I know what she went through and it's so, it's so hard, because it's so many people's opinions on you just trying to live your life as a normal human being because inside we're really just, you know, we are normal, you know?" Simpson continued.

"We might have a big platform but, you can only take stuff for so long, you can only, you know, allow people in and attacking you until you have to really, you know, put your guard up," she added.

Simpson also reflected on Spears and Justin Timberlake's split that has been featured in the documentary, which was released on Feb. 5. Although the split happened way back in early 2000, Timberlake received major backlash on social media following the Spears documentary.

While Timberlake apologized in public following the backlash, Simpson doesn't feel it is necessary considering her own breakup with John Mayer.

“No, I mean I definitely don't feel that I'm owed a public apology. I mean, you can't take it back, you know, and I'm a very forgiving person but I'm also honest," she explained. "So, in the memoir if I'm going to talk about stuff that caused me pain I'm going to be honest about it, and that was a time in my life where I was very manipulated and very, also, like in love, or seemingly, and now that I have the love of Eric [Johnson] it's just such a different thing, and I wouldn't expect an apology."

"I don't think there's a need for an apology because...I don't know, I feel like people end up finding their way to let you know they’re sorry," she added.
