There is a ton of speculation that Jessica Simpson's career is in serious trouble. So much so that she is considering dumping her pop persona and taking her act to Nashville to make the move to country music. Since Playboy is on such a roll of late (Kyla Ebbert, Kim Karadashia, etc.) the question has been asked, should Jess strip for the popular men's magazine. There is no indication that Jessica has been approached by Playboy, it is pure speculation, but it would get her a strong buzz.

Playboy Calls: Jessica Simpson or Vanessa Minnillo?

Her love rival Vanessa Minnillo and the woman that is currently with her ex husband Nick Lachey is getting interest from the magazine though. According to In Touch Vanessa has been showing off her body on the beach – and Playboy is interested.

The weekly entertainment magazine notes in a cover story that Vanessa has grabbed the attention of Playboy magazine in her itsy-bitsy bikinis. "Vanessa is absolutely right for Playboy," Patty Beaudet-Frances, the magazine's senior photography editor, exclusively tells In Touch. "She's very sexy and more sophisticated than a lot of women her age."

In Touch notes that she is currently unemployed and details that the former MTV VJ Vanessa could use the publicity that comes with a Playboy cover – after all, the magazine has helped boost the careers of Shannen Doherty, Adrianne curry, and Brook Burke. It could help both - who would you rather see in Playboy, Jessica or Vanessa?
