Jessica Simpson is worried.
The star is nervous that just because she's known as a singer, she might not be taken seriously as an actress.
Jess is stressing that her new movie, The Dukes Of Hazzard, will be a flop at the box office because people see her as a pop star and not a movie one. She plays the sexy, hotpant-wearing Daisy Duke in the film and had to battle it out with fellow pop star Britney Spears for the part.
"I don't want people walking out of a movie thinking I was trying to act or be some movie star," IMDB reports her as saying. "I want them to think, 'That might make me like Jessica a little bit more'."
--Like most people are going to be listening to one thing that comes out of your mouth, Jess. That's not why you were cast.

You Said
She really is fucking stupid. She is starring in "dukes of hazzard" so what are the odds that anyone would view as a "serious" actress

The non-economical, non-realistic side of me wants Hollywood to become, once again, what made it famous to begin with .... the days when actors were truly actors - geniuses in their craft - not some hack that thinks anyone can act, or that since they have money and are famous for some other genre, they'll give it a shot because they have enough power to be given that free opportunity. Send us back to the days of Humphrey Bogart, Bill Holden, Rock Hudson, the Brat Pack, etc. - besides, the clothes were cooler.

Um, like, I cannot imagine why nobody takes me seriously. I am, like, such a great actress and so talented.

Good Lord.
I don't think she's stupid. Little Jessie knows exactly what she's doing.
I don't think that the movie will flop because of her (she gives herself too much credit); it will flop because it's not all that good.
BTW, have y'all seen the video for her rendition of "These Boots Were Made for Walking"?
She may as well just give it all up and become a stripper or a porn star.
