OH NO! PUH-LEASE let this be a rumor!!!!
Jessica Simpson is to open her own chain of barbeque restaurants called 'Daisy Duke's'.
The 'Dukes of Hazzard' star will provide backing for the restaurants - which will feature scantily-clad waitresses in tiny hot pants - named after her most famous screen character from the film remake of the hit TV show.
The business plan was thought up by Jessica's father and manager, Joe Simpson, 48.
A source told America's Life and Style Weekly magazine: "Joe's going to make a lot of money from this."
The flagship eatery will open in Las Vegas' Caesar's Palace next year, and Jessica will reportedly commit to make at least five appearances at the venue each year.
A spokesman for the 26-year-old star, whose divorce from Nick Lachey was finalised this year, has so far refused to confirm the restaurant plans.

"Joe's going to make a lot of money from this."
I wonder if he will have topless Daisy waitresses who all look like Jessica ..... I hope it tanks![]()
Won't last. From what I have seen it is incredibly hard work to get a restaurant up and successfully run. That just doesn't describe Jess or her Dad to me.
Why don't they just open a brothel? Papa Joe is such a pimp.
Dine with Daisy Duke
Is Joe Simpson cashing in on his daughter’s name — and curves — with a restaurant chain?Jessica Simpson’s manager-dad is hoping to hook up with Caesars Palace in Las Vegas to open the first in a series of Hooters-like barbecue restaurants called Daisy Dukes — named after his daughter’s cut-off-wearing character in “The Dukes of Hazzard,” according to Life & Style Weekly.
Jessica Simpson’s rep denies the story, but L&S claims that’s because her dad is making the plans without her knowledge.
“Joe’s going to make a lot of money from this,” a source told the mag, “and he didn’t even ask Jessica!” http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/14626186
So she doesn't even know that he's doing this? Wouldn't "Daisy Dukes" be copyrighted? Perhaps he'll end up calling it "Double D's" instead.

Have Joe and Jessica ever realized that Jessica Simpson and the character of Daisy Duke are not the same person? They're certainly milking her virtually cameo role in that bomb of a movie for all they can get.
In the Las Vegas Review-Journal, there was a blurb that reps from Caesar's have "flatly" denied that Jessica's craptastic restaurant will get its start there.

Just by looking at the title, I already knew her restaurants would be like Hooters, Papa Joe wouldn't have it any other way.
If you think it's crazy, you ain't seen a thing. Just wait until we're goin down in flames.
Such a brilliant move Joe/Jessica. So many of the other stars have done soooo well w/the restaurants they have opened. Just ask: Britney Spears, Sylvester Stallone, those idiot super models, those idiot atheletes, etc.
GO FOR IT.
Dipshits.
^^Nyla's (I think). Or something close to that name. It was in NYC, and failed miserably.
Damn. And I was probably in NYC at the time too. Usually, my dad hears about stuff like that and takes me. I guess it really did do bad.
When did she make it? Please tell me it was at least during her famous phase.
*Throw another shrimp on the barbie* will take on a whole new Aussie meaning now.
