An American Christian group have demanded Jessica Simpson apologise for her raunchy new music video. The Resistance have dubbed the video for her cover of "These Boots Are Made For Walking" as "slutty" - and ordered her to shoot a cleaner version. They object to her risque behavior in the video - the song is taken from the soundtrack for The Dukes Of Hazzard - in which she washes a car wearing a skimpy bikini - particularly because Simpson's father is a Baptist pastor and they view her as a Christian role model. The group's representative John Conner says, "It's sad to see her whore herself out like this. She's a singing stripper."

Im sort of torn on this issue. Normally I would say even though the video was frighteningly bad, they have no place to criticize and if they dont like it they should just turn it off. On the other hand, Jessica can be so preachy about her values that to put a video out like that one seems very hypocritical.

She is kind of slutty in the video but she's a grown woman and can make her own choices. Who are they to tell her to reshoot her video anyways?
I agree that they have no right to tell her to do anything. But on the other hand she can't claim to be a christian or be holy and godly like and do raunchy videos. This is the same girl that critizied Britney Spear, Hooter girls and Christina Aguilera and yet she's doing the same thing.
It's like me pronouncing my vegeterian way to the world and yet eating meat and wearing fur on tv. She ripped what she sewed.
Honestly though, does what she does in a music video really affect her morals? I mean, can't one be a "good, religious person" and be sexy if they want to? I dunno, I guess I can just realize that what she appears to be isn't necessarily what she is.
On the other hand, if Jessica has ever criticized other's for doing what she herself has done then there's also a problem cause hypocrisy annoys me.

I don't think they have the right to tell her to remake the video but i also don't think that she should portray herself as a christian girl if she's going to act skanky. I think the door swings both ways. She should be allowed to act sexy if she wants but she shouldn't critisize other girls who act the same way and she shouldn't say that she's trying to be a good role model for younger girls because all the other stars aren't (Which she has said in numerous interviews) she needs to decide what she wants to be, skanky and slutty, or a role model
I think being a virginal bride should be proof enough that she's a good Christian girl. If she wants to prance around in a bikini, then hell, she should be allowed to. Not all 'good Christian girls' dress like librarians
Wayyyy jealous of her body by the way, makes Britney look like a horse (even when Brit was at her best)
