Jessica Simpson: Back to Singing
From Fox News.com 9/20/06
Jessica Simpson is such a bad actress that she was only nominated for, but didn’t actually win, a Razzie for her work in last year’s “Dukes of Hazzard.”
Simpson may realize her potential and actually win the Razzie this year for “Employee of the Month,” which premiered last night in Hollywood.
Her fleeting appearances in this otherwise genial and often very funny comedy make it grimly apparent that Simpson is not headed to celluloid greatness.
She has little to say or do, but when she does, ooh boy. Simpson has no facial gestures at all, to the extent that it seems like she wasn’t even paying attention during her close-ups. Maybe she was bored.
Luckily, "Employee" is saved by its actual star — comedian Dane Cook — and a bunch of character actors including Dax Shepard, Efren Ramirez, Tim Bagley and Danny Woodburn, all of whom make "Employee" better than it deserves to be.
Simpson, however, is like cardboard. Director Greg Coolidge and his editors must have worked overtime while cutting Simpson’s scenes for maximum positive effect and minimal negative impact, because she never goes so far as to destroy the film. It’s only when she speaks.
But Coolidge is too smart for that: He focuses as much as possible on Simpson’s lovely chest. She complies by offering ample cleavage.
But Simpson may not be so keen on "Employee of the Month" after all. It took her two hours after the conclusion of the screening at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre to make it over to her own party at the Roosevelt Hotel. Where was she, I asked? “Changing outfits,” said a source.
Simpson, however, may only be adding to her early fall season woes. Her album "A Public Affair" is a dud, selling just 26,000 copies last week. That brings her total to a startingly low 187,000. Not too good.
