Jessica
Simpson Bans Secret Fitness DVD 2/19/08
Singer/actress Jessica Simpson has been accused of "hurting
millions of fat people in America" by banning the sale of a secret
fitness DVD.
The actress recorded the workout tape produced by fitness video company
Speedfit ahead of her role as Daisy Duke in the Dukes of Hazzard in 2005.
But despite signing a multi-million dollar (pound) contract, the
27-year-old changed her mind and banned its release, reports New York
gossip column PageSix.
Speedfit owner Alex Astilean has now launched a lawsuit against her
manager dad Joe after failing to secure a $10 million settlement from
Simpson last year (07).
Astilean says, "They are hurting millions of fat people in
America."
Simpson's spokesman tells the publication, "It's a legal matter
that's in the hands of attorneys."
