Jessica Simpson Does Pamela Anderson?
Filed under: Casting, RumorMonger, Fandom, DIY/Filmmaking, Newsstand
As much as you would love this post to take you to
a link that showed Jessica Simpson doing her best Pamela Anderson impersonation, sadly, that is not the case. However, I
will tell you that, according to British tabloid The Sun, Simpson is set to take over Anderson's role in the
new Baywatch movie. (I'm sure there's a dumb blonde joke to
include here, but it might offend you redheads.)
Not long ago, I reported that Simpson had snatched up the rights to the Jackie Collins novel Lovers and Players, in an attempt to attract some more serious roles. Note to Jessica: Running around in a tight bathing suit, spitting out horrific dialogue and having it all surround the word "Baywatch" doesn't exactly lead to more serious roles. In fact, it kind of leads to, well, low-quality home movies. The source that broke the story claimed -- get this -- "Jessica has all the assets to make Pammie's part her own." Yeah, and something tells me those "assets" don't include her ability to act.

You know Erik, I keep hearing you talk crap about Jessica Simpson and I would really like for you to admit once and for all that you're really in love with her and just cant seem to stop writing about her.

Well I just wanted to say I really like Jessica Simpson and she is my role model and favorite singer but I think doing a movie like this is lowering her morals. I dont think she should do this kind of movie she already made that "these boots are made for walkin video" and that was just not the Jessica I look up to. If jess is reading this I dont mean anything mean by it I just know your different then other singers you dont go showing off your body like other people do just to get fame and thats one of things I liked about her but now it seems shes showing off more and more. I will love Jessica Simpson no matter what choice she makes she'll still be my role model and my favorite singer but I just dont want her to make the wrong choice but ill still go see the movie and support her choices.

Jessica Simpson is not now and never could hold a candle to Pam Anderson. Not only doesn't she have the body, the looks, nor the acting ability, but she just isn't the right type to do a 'Baywatch" anything.
Before she even tries anything of that nature , she needs to do a number of other type movies, and a stint for Playboy.

Oh come on. Do you really think she could be the next Pamela Anderson? I think not. Coming from a dumb blonde that doesn't know that Chicken of the Sea is really TUNA! Grow up Jessica.

Jessica needs to stick to being a singer !!!! Her recent attempt at acting SUCKED and just because she has large assets does not mean she is meant to be the next Pamela Anderson!

I think this is exactly the sort of role that is perfect for Jessica. It won't even matter that she can't act worth a lick.

Jessica is a beautiful girl and a very talented singer. But as a priest daughter she should show some example as a christian and not always shaking her ASS and wearing shorts or being half naked. Show some rspect here

I think if Jessica wants to play in a Baywatch movie, and is selected to play Pam's part, then she should. Yes, honestly, she did suck in "Dukes of Hazzard", but practice maks perfect and she should try this new role. She is very talented and a true sweetheart. I hope the best for her!

LOL This is too funny. I can't believe the comments about Pamela Anderson being talented! She can't act her way out of a paper bag! Both women are bimbos. Who cares who plays the part?

Who wouldn't want to see Jessica in a bathing suit?! I'd rent it just to see that. No I'm not a perv but she's definitely a hottie! Go for it why not. She wore a baithing suit in Dukes of Hazzard. I'd really love to see her in Playboy but that will never happen!

Adore Jessica and I think everyone needs to wait and see if she really is going to do the Baywatch thing. I really believe after Dukes of H she will choose a little more carefully.

As the ol'saying goes, if you have no other talent besides taking off you clothes, you might as well see where it gets ya. Clearly Jess will NEVER be close to "PAM'S HOT" status, but I guess we should cut poor lil' wanna be some body Jess a break, she needs work too.

If you cannot see through the very thin veneer that is Jessica Simpson then you are either under 16 and wouldn't know talent if it bit you in the ass......or her mamma. And something tells me her mamma only cares when the next check arrives.
"Baywatch"? ....try "Boredwatch"

Come on people, Jessica is perfect for Baywatch. All she'll have to do is run around in a bikini and if they don't give her any lines; all the better.

Comparing someone to Pamela is like picking Spam over ham. Someone needs to part with those old Playboy magazines! To think either of them are quality actresses, blows my mind. Jessica's last attempt to be an actress, was not even an attempt. Don't even get me started with Pamela? The Tommy Lee video was probably here best attempt. Mainly because she didn't have any lines. Just made noise. The bimbo, blonde persona is so outdated. Jessica's a good singer, don't get me wrong. But Pamela is not a good actress.

First all...Baywatch the movie. How lame is that. Yes, I admit that I used to watch the show sometimes but Hollywood is that desperate that they're resorting to bad t.v. shows. Haven't they learned anything from any of the other t.v. show turned movies. Next thing you know, there'll be a Three's Company movie starring Simpson and Alba, which would be just wrong. But as for Jessica Simpson, who cares. She'll probably go onto to star in a string of bad movies but continue to make money because she can be cute and ditzy at the same time therefore making her a rolemodel to girls everywhere.

Actually, Jess would be the perfect Pam wannabe image, who else is blonde, has implants and just clearly sucks at acting? Go for it Jess, GO make another fool out of yourself!

I think it would be great to see Jessica Simpson play Pamela! I love Jessica Simpson ... she is a great actress and singer! If she got this role, it is just that, a role, it doesn't mean she is trying to be the next Pamela Anderson! I think its a great idea!
