Blonde Ambition was inspired by the Oscar-winning movie Working Girl, (not the Madonna tour of the same name), and stars the incompetent actress Jessica Simpson in the leading role.
In the movie Jessica Simpson plays the part of a small town girl who moves to New York City and rises up into a great career as a business woman.
