Who should play Daisy Duke?

So you've heard the rumblings of a Dukes of Hazard movie, but there are a few girls that are fighting to get the role of Daisy Duke. Who would you pick?

How about Jessica Alba? She has a nice rump and a spunky attitude.

Charisma Carpenter would fill those cutoffs nicely.

the role of a hick bimbo is tailor made for a Britney Spears or Jessica Simpson.
it would be perfect for either one because they wouldn't need to carry the movie, just provide some simple minded T&A which they are quite accomplished at already, and they have name recognition to provide a lot of buzz.

Jessica Biel and the others mentioned all seem a little over-qualified this role, although thats not saying very much.

First name that popped into my head was Carmen Electra.

Course, that was probably influenced by her recent "70's" layout in Stuff.

Though she certainly did dress like a hick bimbo, I never really thought of Daisy Duke as a hick bimbo, conversely she came across to me as a strong, confident, and intelligent woman who was comfortable with her sexuality and even smarter to use it to her advantage. Seriously. However, I should mention I wasn't at all a fan of the show and I don't think I've ever watched an episode in its entirety (just the good (aka - hick bimbo) parts).

As for who should play Daisy Duke in a new movie, I understand the need in choosing a name actress to draw people, but I feel all those mentioned so far are "yesterday's news". Or at least, I'm pretty tired of most of them.

With that being said, behold the future (sorry I couldn't find a good picture of her without the dude in it):



Her name is Megan Fox (she'll be 18 in just a couple of months so be patient). She's in that movie "Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen" but the first time I saw her was on an episode of that Charlie Sheen/Jon Cryer show "Two and a Half Men". No doubts that she can fill the suit, and in addition I think she can better portray the Daisy Duke I envision - smart, confident, strong, and with a bit of an attitude. A bonus is that according to IMDb.com, she was born in Tennessee.

Oh yeah, I loved that episode of "Two and a Half Men" where Megan Fox showed up and totally had both Charlie and Alan tripping over their tongues the entire time. Megan is seriously HOT!

I say Britney Spears or Jessica Simpson. Katie Holmes, Jessica Biel, hell all these other actresses we named...well I'd rather they do movies that are somewhat worthwhile. This role is a throwaway, just someone who needs to look good in some short shorts. I mean, let's get real...this role ain't gonna be well written and anything more than eye candy, so why waste a good actress on it. Let's just get some good eye candy and let these decent actresses do something else.

Olivia Williams. She brings class (and sexiness) to every role.

(Why the hell do I say this? I don't even care about The Dukes of Hazzard).
