Jessica Simpson is crushing it as a singer, fashion designer, and mom. The 44-year-old pop star recently debuted her Nashville Canyon EP, which she shared is "the result of learning to hear my heart again" (via Us Weekly). Jessica clearly stays on top of her health and wellness game and is no stranger to doing what she has to do to give her vocals major TLC. In fact, the celeb drinks a secret concoction that seems to work its magic. (And yes, one of the ingredients is snake sperm!)

She Drinks a Snake Sperm Beverage for Its Vocal Benefits

The singer recently shared on Instagram a drink she favors that works wonders for her vocal chords. In fact, she says the drink actually improves them.

In the clip, the celeb sips the snake sperm beverage and explains to her team, "They're like, 'What are you drinking?' Cause, you know, it's this Chinese herb thing. And I'm like, 'I don't know.' My vocal coach told me to drink it, and they Googled the ingredients and—snake sperm. It's like a honey … so, if you want a good vocal you gotta drink snake sperm."

She Recently Performed at SXSW

Jessica is making new waves in the music industry. Not only does she seemingly have her vocal beverage game down pat, but she was also seen at a recording studio in her Instagram vid. In addition, the singer recently performed at SXSW, gracing the stage for her first live show in 15 years. She shared two brand-new hits, too.

The "With You" singer wrote on Instagram, "Last night was my first performance in 15 years. It was an emotional coming back home to the best part of myself. Thank you for embracing me. You know that I have so much to say, but this lucky voice gets to soar again tonight. I love y'all. More to come…"

She Released New Music

Jessica certainly has not lost her hits-maker status. Her two new songs are called "Breadcrumbs" and "Leave," the latter of which debuted in the top 40 on iTunes in the U.S. Both songs are included on Jessica's new EP, Nashville Canyon: Part 1

In a YouTube video, as reported by E! News, the singer shared details about "Leave," saying, "Leave is a hard lyric for me to write. It was tapping into some stuff that was scary to tap into. But I needed to get it out. After writing all the lyrics and the melodies I realized like 'Why would I want to show off.' There's so much power in being able to be subtle. And that's probably the best lesson I've had in this whole process. Is that, music is about communicating, not yelling at people."
