April Fills Out Daisy's Dukes
Stepping into the famous shorts donned by Jessica Simpson and the iconic Catherine Bach isn't easy, but "Deal or No Deal" model April Scott is up to the challenge.
While rumors were swirling that "Laguna Beach" babe Kristin Cavallari would step into the role, the prequel to last summer's hit remake of "The Dukes of Hazzard," the honor went to April, a relative unknown.
Scott isn't scared of the comparisons that will likely be made between her and her predecessors. "They're not going the exact same way," April says of the film, "I think I'm somewhere between Jessica Simpson and Catherine Bach, it's a nice medium."
Expect to see a lot of the Maxim Hot 100 babe's long legs in the film, which April tells us explains how her character came up with her now legendary shorts and just whose attention Daisy's been trying to grab by wearing them.
Jonathan Bennett and Randy Wayne join April as they step into Bo and Luke Duke's shoes and Willie Nelson returns as Uncle Jesse in the film, which will be a direct to DVD release sometime next year.
