Jessica Simpson up about abusive relationships during her concert Thursday night (March 12) in Phoenix, Arizona, at the Cricket Wireless Pavilion, US Weekly reports.

Before launching into "Remember That" — a song that contains the lyrics, "It doesn't matter how he hurts you/ With his hands or with his words/ You don't deserve it" — she told her fans to "run so far away" from any abusive situations.

The singer — who has previously talked about being in an abusive relationship — added, "In love, we all go through a lot of things, and a lot of things unfortunately make us stay there [in the relationship]. No matter what you go through in life, no matter what abuse you go through, take your heart and run so far away."

During the show, she also confessed to more relationship woes before singing "Still Don't Stop Me." "After I wrote that song, I was mad at myself for being so weak and I got over that guy!" she said, after explaining it was written for "a guy that I couldn't get over."

In 2008, Simpson spoke to Elle magazine about her abusive relationship, but didn't specify if she had been physically or emotionally abused. "I don't want to talk about it, but I have definitely experienced abuse in a way that I would tell people to take their heart and run."
