Posted on 27th January 2009 08:00AMJessica Simpson wants to star in a British pantomime.
The actress has been encouraged to pursue a role in a traditional Christmas theatre production after her friend Steve Guttenberg - who stars alongside Jessica in upcoming film 'Major Movie Star' - told her how much money she could earn.
The 'Police Academy' star told Britain's New! magazine: "I've been talking to her about when I did my stint in Bromley, UK, and she's keen to experience the panto for herself.
"I told her how I'd picked up 100 grand for four weeks' work - that's going to appeal to anyone!"
Jessica - who recently left her pop career in favour of country singing - may have to put plans for a pantomime stint on hold after it was recently revealed she is "actively trying for a baby" with her American football star boyfriend Tony Romo.
A source said: "I wouldn't be surprised if Jessica makes an announcement that she's pregnant very, very soon."
'Major Movie Star' has been renamed 'Private Valentine: Blonde and Dangerous' for its straight to DVD release in the US next month.
