Jessica Simpson Returns to Acting with a Dramatic New Role
Jessica Simpson has made a striking comeback to acting after a 15-year hiatus, appearing in Hulu’s new legal drama All’s Fair. She plays Lee-Anne, a woman seeking legal help following a botched plastic surgery.
Transformative Role and Prosthetic Makeup
On set, Simpson showcased a drastically altered appearance with exaggerated cheeks, full lips, and a distorted nose, achieved through extensive prosthetic makeup. She shared a behind-the-scenes Instagram video, humorously commenting,
“I mean, this face.”
“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 Background in the Series
In episode three, her character reveals the motivation behind her surgery. Lee-Anne explains that after discovering her husband's infidelity, she agreed to undergo plastic surgery at his insistence. She says,
“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 Reflection on Her Acting Return
Returning to acting after many years, Simpson expressed surprise at her own performance quality. She told ETonline at the show's premiere,
“I didn’t even know that I could do it.”
Summary: Jessica Simpson makes a dramatic acting return in Hulu’s All’s Fair, impressing with a challenging prosthetic role after 15 years away from the screen.
