Jessica Simpson is unrecognizable in Hulu series, All’s Fair, having undergone a striking physical transformation for her latest role. The singer-turned-actress appears with fuller lips, sculpted cheekbones, and sharply arched brows in Ryan Murphy’s high-drama legal series. Her character reveals in the show, which premiered Tuesday (via Page Six):
We’ve been married almost 3 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, a mom-of-three, shared that filming involved eight hours of makeup daily (via Deadline):
Filming All’s Fair was incredible. I had a blast. I did eight hours of prosthetics, so it was very intense.
Simpson also reflected on embodying a persona very different from herself: “I really embody someone that I am not, so I was definitely acting.” She stars alongside Kim Kardashian, and said of their on-set dynamic:
It just felt kind of natural. It was fun to work together. She did all the lawyer talk, I did all the whining.
However, the show has been met with harsh criticism, including a 0% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

Ryan Murphy’s legal drama, All’s Fair, is finally streaming on Hulu as of November 4. The series features a powerhouse cast, including Naomi Watts, Kim Kardashian, Niecy Nash-Betts, Teyana Taylor, and Sarah Paulson, alongside guest stars like Jessica Simpson, Elizabeth Berkley, and Judith Light. The show centers on a team of female divorce attorneys who leave a male-dominated firm to launch their own practice.
According to Hulu, the series follows these women as they
Navigate high-stakes breakups, scandalous secrets, and shifting allegiances—both in the courtroom and within their own ranks.
On-set chemistry has been a highlight, with Taylor calling the experience “amazing…another sisterhood,” while Nash-Betts added (via ABC News), “We really like each other in real life.” Kardashian shared her bonding moments over movie nights with co-stars, including Glenn Close.
Watts said the collaboration was a rare opportunity to work closely with an all-female ensemble in a traditionally male-dominated industry. Joe Baken, co-creator of All’s Fair, explained:
Nothing is off limits in this show. We’re talking about real things, but also it’s just fun, and I think people need fun right now more than ever.
Despite some harsh critiques, the cast hopes audiences will engage with the themes of power, relationships, and women’s agency, all wrapped in meticulous production design, lighting, and music.
Evolution of Jessica Simpson’s Face: Everything She Said on Lip Fillers, Skincare & Self-Care Secrets
Jessica Simpson’s public persona has always been intertwined with her appearance, from her debut single in 1999 to her reality show Newlyweds and global fashion empire. Over the years, she has been transparent about her beauty routines and cosmetic choices. Speaking to Glamour in 2006, Simpson addressed rumors of lip fillers:
I had that Restylane [dermal filler] stuff. But it fades—it went away in like four months. My lips are back to what they were. Thank God! It looked fake to me. I didn’t like that.
On cosmetic surgery, she quipped:
The only thing I’ve ever wanted is a boob reduction! I have to wear two sport bras when I jog. I create a ‘unib**b’.
Her skincare philosophy has evolved with age. By 2019, she praised Epicuren Discovery Bio Peptide Serum for reducing signs of aging. In 2020, she opted for red light therapy over Botox, describing it as meditative. During an interview with InStyle, she said (via Daily Mail):
If I’m laying there with the red light on my face, it does put me into a meditative state of mind and I can just play music or a podcast or just get centred, but also know that I’m Benjamin Buttoning myself.
Simpson also turned her self-care into quality time with her children during the pandemic, sharing nightly face mask routines with daughter Maxwell. She successfully lost 100 pounds post-pregnancy, emphasizing health over criticism. She told Extra TV:
I’ve been criticized, and it hurts, but I’ve been every weight and I’ve been proud of it.
Despite scrutiny and skin challenges like eczema, Simpson remains unapologetically herself. She shared with Refinery29:
I encourage everyone to be open and honest about their flaws, whether it’s eczema or something you’re going through emotionally. Whatever it is, say it out loud, and when you end up on the other side of fear, it’ll be so worth it.
Her journey shows a star who embraces evolution without losing authenticity.
