Jessica Simpson - Blonde Ambition

While Jessica Simpson’s movie Blonde Ambition bombed in the eight theaters it was released in in Texas the past weekend, it did not not break any records for lowest box office receipts. Apparently the record lowest box office receipts goes to loud-mouthed Katherine Heigl in 2006’s Zyzzx Road, which apparently grossed $20 on opening night and a total of $30 for the weekend. According to IMDB trivia, $10 was refunded to a member of the film crew who went to see it.

Oddly enough, Zyzzx Road also opened only in Texas, but only in one theater. Blonde Ambition opened in eight. Lesson to independent movie houses: don’t release crappy films in Texas theaters?

Wondering what “Zyzzx Road” is? The movie seems to actually be about a similarly-named real road called “Zzyzx Rd”, which is an I-15 exit between Las Vegas and L.A.
