When two longtime friends end up on the same project, the on-set chemistry is bound to be something special — and that’s exactly what happened when Jessica Simpson and Kim Kardashian teamed up for the upcoming Hulu series All’s Fair.
Jessica, best known as a singer and actress, recently opened up about the experience and gave fans a little inside scoop on her surprise cameo.
The Secret Behind Jessica’s Puffy Look in the Trailer
If you caught the All’s Fair trailer, you might have noticed Jessica’s face looking a bit swollen during a dramatic scene where she throws a drink at another character.
Curious fans wondered what was going on, and Jessica revealed to Entertainment Tonight that her look wasn’t natural — it was all thanks to hours of intense prosthetic makeup.
“I did eight hours of prosthetics, so it was very intense,” she shared with a laugh, giving a big shout-out to the talented makeup team.
They apparently told her she had “the most patience of anyone they’ve ever worked with,” which says a lot about how much work went into getting her camera-ready.
Working with Kim Felt Like Family
Jessica didn’t just talk about the makeup process — she also gushed about how natural it felt to be on set with Kim Kardashian.
The two have known each other for years, and their kids are best friends, which made the whole filming experience even more enjoyable.
“It was fun to work together. She did all the lawyer talk, I did all the whining,” Jessica joked, showing off their easy friendship.
She described the filming of All’s Fair as “incredible” and said she had an absolute blast.
Stepping into a Role Very Different From Herself
While Jessica has some acting credits under her belt — like playing Daisy Duke in The Dukes of Hazzard and starring alongside Dane Cook in Employee of the Month — this role was a bit of a departure.
She assured fans that her character is nothing like her in real life.
“I really embody someone that I am not, so I was definitely acting,” she admitted, which only adds to the intrigue of her cameo.
Fans Excited About Jessica’s Acting Comeback
Jessica’s unexpected appearance sent fans buzzing online. Many took to social media to express their excitement and support for her return to acting, with one user on X praising her as “an underrated actress.” It’s clear her cameo made a strong impression.
What to Expect from All’s Fair
All’s Fair was first announced back in December 2023 as part of Ryan Murphy’s deal with Disney.
While the exact premiere date is still under wraps, it’s set to debut on Hulu sometime this fall.
The show centers on Kim Kardashian as a powerhouse Los Angeles attorney running a women-led law firm.
It’s created by Jon Robin Baitz and Joe Baken, with executive production credits also going to Ryan Murphy, Kim herself, and her mom Kris Jenner.
A Star-Studded Cast Joins Jessica and Kim
Jessica isn’t the only big name involved — the cast includes heavy hitters like Brooke Shields, Naomi Watts, Sarah Paulson, and Niecy Nash.
Halle Berry was originally part of the lineup but had to step away due to scheduling conflicts.
Rumor has it that the series draws inspiration from Hollywood divorce lawyer Laura Wasser, who represented Kim during some of her high-profile splits.
Old Collaborations and New Beginnings
Kim and Ryan Murphy have a history, having worked together on American Horror Story, so this new project feels like a natural next step for both.
Jessica’s cameo might be brief, but her enthusiasm and the fun she had on set definitely shine through.
It’s exciting to see friends reconnecting in such a high-profile way, and fans will be eagerly waiting for the show to drop.
