Following her Eurovision participation, Jessika released the single “No la conoces” in 2019. In 2022, she returned to the Malta Eurovision Song Contest with the song “Kaleidoscope.” Although initially eliminated, she was granted a wild card spot for the final but finished in 17th place.

In 2023, Jessika entered the Malta Eurovision Song Contest again with the song “Unapologetic.” She performed in the third quarter-final on January 27, 2023, but was eliminated and did not advance to the semi-finals.

Together with Fabrizio Faniello and Vitorio Gauci, Jessika formed JVL. The trio participated in the 2025 Malta Eurovision Song Contest with the song “Festa (no time for Siesta)”.
