Jessica Simpson Returns to MTV VMAs After 19 Years in Rare Red Carpet Appearance
Jessica Simpson's 2025 MTV VMAs appearance marked her first in 19 years, coinciding with her music comeback and personal healing after a recent divorce.
- On September 7, 2025, Jessica Simpson returned to the MTV Video Music Awards after a nearly two‑decade absence, walking the UBS Arena red carpet in a sheer black gown by Christian Siriano.
- Simpson's comeback followed personal upheaval as she released Nashville Canyon earlier this year and confirmed her separation from estranged husband Eric Johnson in January.
- Her physical changes, including a 100-pound weight loss and sobriety, have sparked social-media speculation about cosmetic procedures and mixed reactions online.
- Presenting duties were quickly eclipsed by attention on Simpson's transformed appearance despite her handing the inaugural Latin Icon Award to Ricky Martin at the MTV Video Music Awards production.
- Earlier this year, Simpson signaled a creative revival with her first live TV performance in 15 years at the Recording Academy’s Austin Chapter Block Party at SXSW, reflecting personal rebuilding amid sobriety, as discussed in interviews with Glamour and People.
