Jessica Simpson’s Ability to Cry on Cue Revealed

Jessica Simpson made a surprising revelation in an exclusive interview with PEOPLE. She shared her experience of stepping out of her comfort zone to make a cameo on Ryan Murphy’s new legal drama, All’s Fair. Despite not often crying in real life, Simpson discovered that she could cry on cue during her time on set.

The 45-year-old fashion designer and musician opened up about the challenges she faced and the personal growth she experienced while taking on this dramatic role. Simpson admitted that she wasn’t sure how she landed the role, but she embraced the opportunity with enthusiasm and had a blast.

Simpson’s role in All’s Fair allowed her to tap into hidden talents she never knew she had. She explained, “I didn’t know I could cry on cue at all. It’s hard for me to cry in real life. I’m very strong.” Despite being in a survival mode during difficult times, Simpson shared that she finds a weird confidence in persevering and moving forward.

At the premiere of the series, Simpson stunned in a black latex gown and sparkly jewelry, teasing that her role in the show was “crazy” and “cathartic.” She emphasized the importance of vulnerability and empowerment among women, highlighting the strength that comes from facing fears and leaning on each other for support.

All’s Fair, featuring Jessica Simpson in a cameo role, premieres on November 4 on Hulu. This female-driven show aligns with Simpson’s own values, as she runs an all-female fashion brand and believes in the power of women supporting each other. She looks forward to audiences seeing her in a different light in this exciting new project.
