Jessica Simpson is planning a duet with country singer Dolly Parton on her next album.  Simpson is making a country album in Nashville in an attempt to strike big on the charts again.

Jessica told me she’s meeting with none other than Queen of Country Dolly Parton next week about doing a duet on the album. She’s also working with writer/producer John Shanks. In other words: she’s taking country seriously. Fans of the genre needn’t worry.

The only thing missing from this buxom duet will be Kenny Rogers, the plastic man.
