Jessica Simpson has quashed rumors she is to star in a remake of ‘Working Girl’. It had been reported that the ‘Dukes of Hazzard’ actress was going to play Tess McGill – an aspiring businesswoman, who was played by Melanie Griffith in the original – in a reworking of the popular 80s film. Jessica insists she has no plans to appear in the movie and is currently busy with other projects. She said: "I don’t know where those rumors came from. I’m making a film called ‘Blonde Ambition’ that I’m doing with Luke Wilson." Jessica believes the confusion may have arisen because her new film has a similar plot to ‘Working Girl’. She added: "It’s along the same lines as ‘Working Girl’. A small town girl moving to New York and turning into a great businesswoman."
