If you’re waiting for a new Jaime Pressly movie where you can see her (she is in the new release “Horton Hears A Who”, but is just voicing an animated character), then this is the time to do some rejoicing. Our favourite redneck hottie has landed a role in a new upcoming Dreamworks comedy starring Paul Rudd and Jason Segel called “I Love You, Man”.

The film is written and set to be directed by John Hamburg, who did “Along Came Polly”. It’s a bout a guy (Rudd) who’s about to be married, and his fiancée (Rashida Jones) is inviting all her friends to be at the wedding. But Rudd realizes he has no friends, so he starts going on “man-dates” to find a best man for the event.

Jaime Pressly plays the fiancées best friend, with some redneck panache, we’re betting.

Our favourite sexy, sassy trailer park white trash honey from “My Name Is Earl” lost out in her bid for a Golden Globe award to go with her Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series Emmy trophy. Jaime Pressley was nominated by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association for her performance as Joy Turner (ex-wife of lead character Earl Hickey). But the prize for her category of Best Supporting Actress - Television went to Samantha Morton for the series “Longford”. I don’t know what “Longford” is, but it looks British, which I guess is why the Hollywood Foreign Press prefers that show and that actress over homegrown redneck fare like our hottie Ms. Pressly.
