And walkin' is what they'll do in Jessica Simpson's new music video, as she does a remake of Nancy Sinatra's song "These Boots Are Made For Walking." The song will appear on the soundtrack to the upcoming "Dukes of Hazzard" movie, which Simpson plays the role of Daisy Duke in.
"I thought initially it was a LORETTA LYNN song, because I have all her music and she sings it," Jessica admits. "And then everyone's like 'no, that's Nancy Sinatra!' And I'm 24 so I'm like 'okay!' And I get Nancy and I'm like 'this is awesome!'"
Willie Nelson, who plays the role of Uncle Jesse in the movie, also contributed to the song.
The entire video-making process was documented by MTV's "Making the Video," which will air Monday. The soundtrack to "The Dukes of Hazzard" will hit stores July 19th.
I THINK JESS LOOKED AWESOME IN DIS VIDEO N ALL DOSE CRZE PPL COMPARIN HER 2 SOME FAKE S*** LIKKE BRITNEY OR SOME STRIP TEASE LIKE CHRISTINA THEY GO PROBLEMS! JESS HAS REAL TALENT N REAL BEAUTY!!! GO JESS
Ok, to all the people who are saying that they dont like jessicas 'new image'. who said it was a new image? its one video that she isnt even playing herself in. shes playin daisy duke, her character in the movie dukes of hazard. i think that since jessica has that great of a body, she SHOULD show it off. and to the person who said that whispering and shortening the words like 'fo': the song would sound RETARDED if she enunciated (sp?) every single word. the song sounds awesome and the video is amazing. stop talkin * about it!
she is ljust playing around and living her life to the fullest. she is not harming herself or anyone else. if only i had that body at 24, i would have shown it off too. she's adorable, sexy, and talented.
acually jessica is nothin like britany and christina. i was reading what all you people said and how can she turn out just like britany spears when she is older!? plus brittney is like wayy different... i mean she's already pregnet!! and look jessica is having a waay better relationship with her hub than britney is with hers!!! and she is also nothing like britney and christina because jess would never kiss another woman in front of like the whole world especially showing your toungs touching!!! ewww!!!
the last message is soo right!!! jess is nothin like brit and chris and thats a good thing too!!! jess is the prettiest pop star in the world!! and this is not a new image ... this is just a role that she is playin in a freakin movie!!!! she is still her same self!!!!!
You guys are haters...shes not like britney and christina....you guys are just jealous cuz ur not jessica!! u dont have her body! and its not worse then what britney and christina do.....christina..hello! look at the DIRRTy music video....and britney...wehl her videos were never bad....all she does is show of her tummy...but JESSICA IF YOU GOT FLAUNT IT.....you all know that if you had her body you would be wearing a bikini just like that!!!! i love ur video jessica! its the best one yet!
i aboloose womanely love this video! and yeah, jessica is showing off her body a lot in this video..who cares? she's gorgeous! and i'm sure that any young girl who has that body and opportunity to show it off would too! and its not like shes trying to be provocative...shes being daisy dukes character! that's how daisy was so jessica is just doin her job, and shes doin a pretty darn good job at it too! so to all you who are dissing her just because of a video, ya'll need to seriously lighten up! i get that you're just posting your opinion, like i'm doing, but really the least you could of done was try to say something positive.
i think the video was hott. I never saw jessica move her body like that. I mean if you got the perfect body then show them what you got don't be ashamed. i know i do and in that video she did a really good job. and i know this video is not like all the others, and it's a turning point. but this is just going to show you if jessica simpson never did anything like this and it sold well then sex don't sell even though it wasn't nothing like this, but if it does then sex does sell, because she was half naked. but i am not going to complain, if christina, brittany, and j lo can go and do videos worse then that so can jessica and that was her first one. so to all them people that hated the video because of the way jessica dressed stop hating and get on wit your life kay.............
Gee, it was ever so hard for me to type in a couple of search terms over at Google, like "These boots" lyrics "Jessica Simpson" and get some results. I wonder why it's called a search engine. Next time you want some lyrics, maybe you should try a search engine instead of a news site. You might get better results. morons
Jessica is hotter than ever before! I give her mad props for lookin so good in her new video. Someone had to replace Brit's bad image and that's Jessica. She looks darn good I don't know what's so bad about that..
i think that jessica is great and so is the video, shes growing as a women and embracing her new body in my eyes jessica will always be my icon and i deeply admire her.
i just saw the video and i def liked it alot...i thought most of it was pretty cute how she punched the guy in the face and the part where everyone was dancing but the part with her on the car didnt need to be in it...i mean the video was cute without her being a sleeze she didnt need to add it in
Hey x2k5x.... Thanks for explaining the video to me... It was pretty tough to figure out. I am well aware of what she was doing.... And as I stated it just didn't seem like something she would do. I agree she has a terrific body, and we have seen this body in other video's. I just have a feeling this is the kind of stuff you can expect to see from her now, and it's sad... I hope I'm wrong............ Not to mention her voice sounds like crap.. She totally ruined this song.
ok "disappointed", you actually think jessica's voice sounds like crap? are you deaf? and ya know wut? she totally didn't ruin the song..artists re do older songs all the time and yes, sometimes they ruin it, but i think jessica did a fabulous job and i love the country twist!
I really thought Jessica did great in this video even though it was not like her typical self. I hope she goes back to her sweet yet pretty style and leaves her daisy duke image in strictly the movie itself.
omgg..i freakin love this video!! she looks hott and i'm so happy she did this song!! i can't wait to see dukes of hazard and i think she was perfect for the part. i love jessica simpson-i've been a HUGEEEEEEE fan ever since sweet kisses came out!! and now she's not becoming christina or britney..no way. she has good morals and values..and she's close with God. I LOVE YOU JESSICA!! THIS VIDEO IS THE BEST!!
Hey yall! I just wanna say that I love jessica simpson! She's a real doll and her new look is off the chain. I havent yet watched the video "these boots are made for walking" but i can already tell it is really awesome because everything she does is awesome! Love ya Lots!
