Jessica Simpson, 28, is both a pop singer and actress. She has achieved seven Top 40 hits, and has three gold and two multi-platinum RIAA-certified albums. The highlight of her acting career could possibly be her role as the sexy Daisy Duke in the 2005 film version of The Dukes of Hazzard. She also appeared on the film’s soundtrack, releasing “These Boots Are Made for Walkin’”, a cover of the 1966 Nancy Sinatra hit. The song’s video featured Simpson as Daisy Duke flirting and singing in a bar and then washing her car in a sexy pink string bikini. In some countries the video was banned for its overtly sexual content!

Jessica’s workouts generally consist of one hour of weights and half an hour of aerobic work. The main exercises were lunges and squats, which help to tone and strengthen the thighs and buttocks. She only used light weights for these exercises, as she was training for muscular endurance rather than bulk. This was to ensure that her legs remained sexy and shapely without becoming bulking and too athletic looking. The lunges and squats also has the advantage of building extra muscle on her bum (glutes) to provide a curvier backside. Many people think that a sexy bum must have lots of fat, but this is simply not true. A woman’s bum should be muscular too, to help keep a good shape. Her fitness instructor explained that “Jessica wanted more of a bump for her rear end instead of a flat butt.”
