Late last week US Weekly reported that Jessica Simpson’s maligned “Blonde Ambition” (co-starring poor Luke Wilson) would be heading straight to DVD, however studio heads are insisting that the film will come out this Christmas on December 21 in a limited release. And by limited we mean all of eight theaters in Texas.
Check out this delicious piece of damage control: “The reason we chose Texas is the two stars are from Texas: Jessica Simpson and Luke Wilson. As an independent studio, we, as a rule, don’t have major wide releases. It’s a very common release practice for independent studios,” says Nu Image/Millennium Film spokesperson Elizabeth Wolfe trying to keep a straight face. She also noted the Simpson’s next masterpiece “Major Movie Star” is due in 2008. [People]
