‘Looks Nothing like Her’: Fans Say They ‘Don’t Recognize’ Jessica Simpson, 44, in New Photo’Looks Nothing like Her’: Fans Say They ‘Don’t Recognize’ Jessica Simpson, 44, in New Photo

The “Irresistible” singer posed in a recording studio, looking stunning in a silk skirt and top while teasing new music.

The 44-year-old looked glamorous as she posed in a recording studio, her blonde hair flowing freely, accentuated by a smokey eye and natural lip makeup. In the photo, she leaned back in her seat, dressed in a black blazer paired with a white silk skirt and top.

Fans reacted to this picture by being vocal about her transformed appearance. One fan, who couldn’t believe their eyes, wondered, “What has she done to herself? This doesn’t even look like her.” Another follower expressed their shock, “Woah. You don’t look like jessica [sic].”

A commenter shared in this confusion, “Looks nothing like her!! But, why do this to yourself?🤔” Some even questioned specific features, “Where is her nose?” Another fan speculated about her recent changes, “Nose was done recently, it appears.”

Reflecting on her previous appearance, one fan reminisced, “It’s such a shame because she was just precious looking before and now she just looks like a shell of her former self. I think she’s actually been through way more pain than anyone knows about.”

One fan compared her to a toy, “She looks like a disheveled barbie [sic] doll.” A Facebooker bluntly stated, “Unfortunately she ruined her face with plastic surgery!”

One fan expressed disappointment, “She used to be so beautiful! Her face looks so gaunt & overly plastic.” Some fans believed aging was a factor, as one wrote, “She got older, that’s why she looks different. You can’t expect a woman to look like a teenager forever.” Finally, a fan found some beauty in the transformation, adding, “She looks so different from original JS but still beautiful.”

Despite this, she encourages them to ignore external opinions and focus on how they feel about themselves. Jessica Simpson is careful not to complain about weight or calories in front of her kids, aiming to set an example by living a healthy lifestyle. While she doesn’t aspire to be a role model for the world, she prioritizes being one for her children.

Despite the ongoing discussions about her body over the years, Simpson has turned these changes into an asset. Through the Jessica Simpson Collection, she relates to many women by understanding the experience of navigating different body sizes.

In a post shared on November 2024, she opened up about releasing new music, writing, “Interviews in my Nashville music room where I unearthed my singular magic. This comeback is personal, it’s an apology to myself for putting up with everything I did not deserve 🎶 🎼 🤍🖤.”

Simpson shared several photos alongside the message. She was photographed posing in an orange chair while wearing a lace white dress, black thigh-high boots, and a black fur jacket.

In 2023, she received the Icon Award at the FN Achievement Awards and explained what the term means to her. “An icon is someone who is not afraid to take risks. And often, their choices don’t make sense in the immediate, but they’re part of an enlightened understanding of the big picture. It’s someone who transcends a particular time or place and defines a moment,” she elaborated.

Simpson is also mindful not to focus solely on searching for something that would create an impact or become an iconic moment. “I set out to be vulnerable, honest, authentic,” she explained.
