Ashlee Simpson is back in the spotlight and sharing her truth about the fashionably awkward 2000s. Recently, during a candid conversation on the “Pod Meets World” podcast, she reflected on the bullying she faced, including an embarrassing comment from an ex-boyfriend telling her she looked “fat.” Talk about a confidence killer! But instead of letting those toxic memories define her, Simpson turned her heartbreak into hit songs, capturing the rollercoaster of emotions in her debut album, *Autobiography*.

With rumors of new music on the horizon, fans are ready for what Ashlee has in store.
