Jessica Simpson Returns to Acting with New Role
Jessica Simpson made a striking comeback to acting after 15 years, appearing on the set of Hulu’s legal drama, All’s Fair. The singer and fashion designer takes on the role of Lee-Anne, a woman who seeks legal help following a botched plastic surgery.
Transformation for the Role
Simpson shared a behind-the-scenes look at her dramatic prosthetic makeup in a video on Instagram. Her character features exaggerated cheeks, plump lips, and a distorted nose. She humorously commented on the look, saying:
“I mean, this face.”
Simpson captioned the clip,
“Introducing this ultimate badass with a heart of gold. It took an incredible village (and six hours in prosthetics!) to bring her to life for @hulu’s #AllsFair and wow… what a ride.”
Character Backstory
In the show’s third episode, Lee-Anne reveals the reason behind her plastic surgery:
“We’ve been married almost three years. I knew he had had one affair — probably more. So when he had told me to get plastic surgery, I couldn’t say no.”
Simpson’s Reaction to Her Return
The “Irresistible” singer expressed surprise at her own acting skills after her break from the screen:
“I didn’t even know that I could do it,”
she told ETonline during the show’s premiere.
Summary
Jessica Simpson’s acting comeback features a bold transformation and a compelling character in Hulu’s All’s Fair, surprising even herself with her performance.
