Jessie Murph Unveils Fringe Fantasy with Piglet Plus-One at ACMs 2025 • CelebMafia

In a moment equal parts yeehaw and surrealist whimsy, Jessie Murph cradled a piglet in pink fringe—her red carpet debut at the ACMs was anything but ordinary.

There are red carpet entrances—and then there’s Jessie Murph’s. On May 8, 2025, at the 60th Academy of Country Music Awards in Frisco, Texas, the breakout artist didn’t just arrive. She declared. Draped in blush-toned fringe and clutching a piglet named Wilbur, Murph turned the Ford Center at The Star into a runway of rural rebellion

The outfit? A tactile dream. Her top, a cascade of pale pink fringe, shimmered with movement, catching the light like prairie grass in a breeze. Paired with patterned trousers that nodded to Southwestern motifs, the ensemble balanced kitsch and couture with a wink. While the designer remains unconfirmed at press time, the look felt like a love letter to Dolly Parton’s rhinestone legacy—filtered through Gen Z’s TikTok surrealism.

And then there was Wilbur. Styled (yes, styled) in a custom bow to match Murph’s palette, the piglet wasn’t just a prop—he was a statement. “I’ve always wanted a mini pig,” Murph told Country Now, “and then I found out miniature pigs don’t exist”. The result? A full-size farm companion turned fashion accessory, stealing hearts and headlines alike.

Murph’s makeup leaned soft and dewy, with a peachy glow and glossy lips that echoed the outfit’s romantic tones. Her hair, tousled and center-parted, added a touch of undone cool—a counterpoint to the theatricality of her look. The styling, cohesive and playful, felt like a nod to country’s evolving aesthetic: less Nashville glitz, more alt-Americana.
