Jessica Simpson, How she became Daisy Options

[HappyHeart]

Her personal trainer reveals the diet and excercise secrets that made her look that good!



Jessica Simpson had some big shorts to fill in the role of Daisy Duke for her new movie, The Dukes of Hazzard. And by big, we mean small -- the iconic cutoffs were made famous by the original Daisy Duke, Catherine Bach, who wore the heck out of 'em back in the day. They've been a fashion staple ever since. Clearly Jessica had to make them look good. Really good.

To do that she enlisted an old high school friend and personal trainer, Mike Alexander, to whip her into shape. If you've see the video for her single, "These Boots Are Made for Walkin'," you know he did an amazing job. "She was a dream client at a very opportune time," he told USA Today. On the advice of the Simpson family, Mike moved to Los Angeles and stayed with Jessica's parents. He was a member of Joe Simpson's youth ministry and describes Jess's dad as a "big brother."

But there were no miracles involved in getting Jessica ready for her sexy role. Let's just say you can't be lazy if you want to be Daisy. Mike and Jessica worked out at the Beverly Hills' Sports Club LA, doing an hour of weights and a half hour of cardio everyday. "Jessica wanted more of a bump for her rear end instead of a flat butt," he says. To put a little more junk in the trunk -- but still keeping her butt and legs super toned -- Simpson reportedly worked a rigorous program of lunges and squats while holding 7 1/2-pound weights.

And because most of the stuff she wore in the movie was sleeveless or strapless, "We did a lot of bicep curls, 10-pound elbow cable extensions, incline press and shoulder raises" to chisel her back, arms, shoulders and chest, he said.

Jessica's will power and Mike's support didn't end when the workout was over. He lived in a house with her during the three months she was in Baton Rouge shooting the film with co-stars Johnny Knoxville and Seann William Scott. "I ate every meal with her so I could tell her what to order," Mike says. He encouraged her to eat grilled chicken, seared fish, broccoli and asparagus. Bread baskets are a no-no as is extra sugar in Jessica's tea. And since hospitality is a way of life in the South, Jessica had to refuse free desserts. "Once word got out where Jessica was staying in town, neighbors began dropping off fresh baked goods," Mike told the paper. "But Jessica remained incredibly disciplined."

Once shooting wrapped, however, Jessica celebrated Southern style with chicken-friend steak, mashed potatoes and a hot fudge brownie sundae.

Jessica's boobs are huge. Why would she need a push up bra?
