Simpson plays the title role of Megan Valentine, a down-on-her-luck actress who enlists in the United States Army.

[2] When film star Megan Valentine (Jessica Simpson) suddenly finds herself broke and humiliated in the public eye, she wanders from the wreckage of a car accident and witlessly enlists in the United States Army, hoping that it will change her life.

The spoiled actress immediately finds herself at odds with her tough drill sergeants and the harsh discipline of army life, leading to many humorous situations.

[4] The film was released in the United States straight to DVD as Private Valentine: Blonde & Dangerous on February 3, 2009.

[6] The next night, the show played a clip from a bootleg copy before having recurring guest star James Lipton make a passionate plea to Simpson to reconsider her decision to withhold the film, saying the "bad defines the good" and the apparent "85 minute stinkbomb" of Major Movie Star only would help to highlight how good Schindler's List really was.
