I was thinking about that piece of news that came in yesterday about how Jessica Simpson is desperate to strip for a movie part, in the hope that it will put her on the map and give her credibility as an actress. The fact is, judging by the blonde's latest movie efforts, it's not precisely an easy target to reach. I mean, "Blond Ambition"? That one was deemed so bad it wasn't even released in theaters anymore. And "Major Movie Star"? Is that even a proper movie? I don't want to sound mean here, but it seems that Jessica has dug her own grave - well, I suppose it could be argued that Papa Joe also helped, but in the end, since it's not his a*s strutting around on screen, we'll credit Jessica for at least some of her (very bad) choices.
But the "stripping off" part - that's gotta be among the most hilarious ideas I've ever heard. I mean yes, on the one hand I understand the whole "clothes off" policy may mean a little more attention, but from the wrong segment of the audience. I mean, I'm pretty sure that when the Oscar or Golden Globe nominations are decided, there is no special section dedicated to "actresses who have taken off their clothes". Jessica may think it's a form of high art, but it actually
takes a little more than great boobs for an actress to be taken seriously. On the other hand, though, Jessica has... how should I put this... shot herself in the foot pretty seriously, since she's only been taking typecast parts depicting her as a silly, stupid young woman with not enough brains to fill an eggcup.
It's pretty hard to be taken seriously under these circumstances - and stripping is a bad idea if it's not backed by some serious acting talent - but just in case you had any doubts, Jessica may actually be great stripping material. Just in case she decides to give up acting (since it may ultimately seem as too demanding for her) she's got all the right things in all the right places and would make a great stripper. And just as a convincing reminder, take a look at what happens when Jessica decides to go bra-less and see-through at the same time. The photo is an older one, but I doubt the quality of her boob factor has gone down. Can you deny she'd do a great job shaking her boobs for the whole world to see? Look again and then we'll talk some more.
