Jessica Simpson left fans speechless after appearing almost unrecognizable in her latest role on Hulu’s new series All’s Fair. The actress, known for her relationship with Tony Romo and her music career, donned elaborate facial prosthetics to transform into her character Lee-Ann.
In her first acting role in more than ten years, Simpson plays Lee-Ann, a woman whose numerous cosmetic surgeries went disastrously wrong. This leads her to seek legal help from Kim Kardashian’s character, attorney Allura Grant. The unusual appearance was part of the show’s storyline rather than a personal cosmetic choice.
“Filming All’s Fair was incredible. I had a blast,” Jessica told Entertainment Tonight. “I did eight hours of prosthetics, so it was very intense.”
Simpson explained that the role demanded intense preparation and long hours in the makeup chair. She also emphasized how deeply she had to step outside of herself to portray such a complex character.
“I really embody someone that I am not, so I was definitely acting,” she added.
Through flashbacks, the series explores Lee-Ann’s relationship with a rock star she meets at a concert. Their romance eventually turns sour when he convinces her that she needs surgery after turning forty. Following disastrous operations, Lee-Ann’s life spirals until she finds justice in court with the help of Allura Grant’s legal team.
Simpson’s fans were both shocked and impressed by the realism of the prosthetics, with many taking to social media to express disbelief at her transformation. The dramatic makeup process reportedly took about eight hours each day of filming.
While some reactions were harsh, others praised her courage for taking on such a demanding and unusual role.
