Michelle Pfeiffer is desperate to be a part of a remake of the seventies movie musical, Grease. If she gets her way, she wants Jessica Simpson to play the part of Sandy.

The actress is desperately embarrassed about her performance in the ill-fated Grease 2, and wants to erase all memory of it by making a new version of the original film. Pfieffer is thrilled by reports Simpson is being touted to play prom queen Sandy Dumbrowski – and has her eye on the role of the comical Principal McGee.

She says, “It’s a great idea, and I hear they would like to get Jessica Simpson for the role of Sandy. She would be good.” Pfeiffer adds of her own Grease experience, “I hated that film (Grease 2) with a vengeance and could not believe how bad it was. At the time, was young and didn’t know better… I hear it’s a cult movie now.”

Doesn’t she know that Jessica Simpson is box office poison?
