Washington, Oct. 11: Singer-actress Jessica Simpson is still embarrassed that her screen-tests for two roles in the big screen re-make of the classic TV show Dallas could not win her even one of them.
According to media reports, Simpson was in line to land the role of sexy Lucy Ewing, but she failed to impress film-makers with her acting skills.
The Dukes Of Hazzard star claims that though singing comes naturally to her, she had never expected that she would one day play a role in films.
"I never thought I would see myself on the big screen. That, to me, was something so unreachable," Contactmusic quoted her as saying.
She says that she auditioned for the part but "couldn't really pull it off... They wanted me to come back for Pam (Ewing). They saw me as something more mature, and as a woman.
Simpson also says that she had great chemistry with Luke Wilson, and that her family and friends were confident of her getting the role. "I really thought I nailed it and had a chemistry with Luke Wilson, who was playing Bobby. All of a sudden I get a call: not Pam. Everyone was saying I was going to be in Dallas, and I didn't get the part. I did not get it. How embarrassing is that?" she said. (ANI)
