Gretchen Wilson Walks Away From 'Dukes Of Hazzard' Role

01/31/2005 3:00 PM, LAUNCH LAUNCH Radio Networks

Gretchen Wilson recently turned down the opportunity to star in the upcoming feature film, the Dukes Of Hazzard. The "Redneck Woman" was approached about playing a sheriff who arrests Daisy Duke, played by Jessica Simpson. Wilson had to pass on the offer, however, due to her busy schedule, according to the Tennessean.

In the meantime, Wilson gears up to perform at the Super Bowl with country legend Charlie Daniels.

The singer was also recently added to the list of Grammy Awards performers. Wilson will join Keith Urban and members of Lynyrd Skynyrd in a tribute to Southern Rock.

what happens there stays there forever and ever, amen. Today, the flag is more divisive than it was when the Dukes first hit the air. Our sensibility is different.

My sensibility isn't different. What's different is the attacks by the NAALCP since the early 90s bringing this 'important subject' to the forefront every chance they get. One wonders just how useful the NAALCP would be if they continued their original mission instead of attacking others' heritage. Sorry to hear Gretchen Wilson isn't going to be in it though. Funny sidenote, watched the original series first season on DVD a few weeks back. Whew! All I'll say is my memories of Katherine Bach are a lot different than how it looked this time...
