Songstress Jessica Simpson reportedly wants to feature in a sitcom that she plans to produce herself.

The 35-year-old who has daughter Maxwell, three, son Ace, 2, with husband Eric Johnson is keen to appear in a comedy show, loosely based on her life, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

"Jess really wants to get back into acting. She's been taking lessons for more than a year, and though she's been meeting with producers, no offers have come in. So she's taking matters into her own hands,` National Enquirer quoted a source as saying.

The `Private Valentine: Blonde and Dangerous` actress is planning to produce the sitcom and might even rope in her former National Football League player-husband.

"She'll put him to work. Jess wants to capitalise on her dumb blonde image rather than play against it,` the source added.
