Jessica Simpson was humiliated after failing to land a role in upcoming film Dallas, according to BreakingNews.ie.
Simpson auditioned for two parts in the film, but nailed neither. She explained: "I never thought I would see myself on the big screen. That, to me, was something so unreachable. [I auditioned 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.
"I really thought I nailed it and had a chemistry read 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?"
