Superstar Jessica Simpson said she’s “on a budget” now after her credit “card got denied” the “other day” when she went to Taco Bell to get fast food.

During the 41-year-old actress/singer’s recent appearance on “The Real” daytime talk show with co-hosts Garcelle Beauvais, Adrienne Houghton, Loni Love and Jeannie Mai Jenkins, “The Dukes of Hazzard” star talked about wanting to grow her clothing line and have it include a line for boys/men.  It comes at the minute 7:11 minute mark here.

“With money, there’s just so much fear attached to it,” Simpson shared.”And I’m the person that you get mad at the blackjack table. I’ll put it all out there if it’s me that’s driving the show because I believe in myself and I know what I can do. And I know that nothing will stop me, and if you try to stop me, I’ll try harder.”

“This is now. I am draining my bank account,” she added. “I have no working credit card. It’s OK. I will pay in cash. I went to Taco Bell the other day, and my card got denied [laughing]. I’m on a budget, ladies!”

In November 2021, the “Employee of the Month” star regained control of her Jessica Simpson Collection brand following a three year battle to do so, reported Page Six in a recent piece. The Jessica Simpson Collection is reportedly valued at $1 billion, the outlet noted.

Earlier this month, the “I Wanna Love You Forever” hitmaker recently shared the incredible weight-loss milestone she hit after sharing how much she’s gained and lost over the last several years.

“I have gained and lost 100lbs 3x so I never thought this moment could or would happen, but I’m finally spring breakin’ wearin’ a BIKINI!!!!!!” Jessica captioned her post on Instagram showing her wearing a two-piece swimsuit.

“Hard work,” she added. “Determination, Self Love. I enjoyed a good proud cry today.”

The superstar singer has been very open about her personal struggles with everything from weight loss to sobriety as noted in her 2020 memoir “Open Book.”

In 2021, Simpson celebrated her four years of sobriety with an image she posted on Instagram, the day she said she would allow herself “to take back” her “light.”

“This person in the early morning of Nov 1, 2017 is an unrecognizable version of myself,” Jessica captioned her post in part. “I had so much self discovery to unlock and explore. I knew in this very moment I would allow myself to take back my light, show victory over my internal battle of self respect, and brave this world with piercing clarity.”

“Personally, to do this I needed to stop drinking alcohol because it kept my mind and heart circling in the same direction and quite honestly I was exhausted,” she added. “I wanted to feel the pain so I could carry it like a badge of honor.”

“I can’t believe it has been 4yrs!” Simpson continued. “It feels like maybe 2. I think that is a good thing. Ha. There is so much stigma around the word alcoholism or the label of an alcoholic. The real work that needed to be done in my life was to actually accept failure, pain, brokenness, and self sabotage. The drinking wasn’t the issue. I was. I didn’t love myself. I didn’t respect my own power. Today I do.”
