If you're starting up a sitcom and you want it to totally suck and ultimately fail miserably, then hire Ashlee Simpson. Her acting skills resemble something along the lines of rotten piece of fruit. Watching her on Melrose Place is like pouring bleach into your eye sockets. Nicole Richie must be a masochist, because she is going to bring Ashlee onto her new sitcom.
Nicole Richie has a generous Christmas gift for BFF Ashlee Simpson-Wentz - a co-starring role on her ABC sitcom…
“Nicole promised Ashlee that writers would craft a central role for her,” revealed the source. The two women and their children spend a lot of time socializing together, and Nicole decided she’d like to work with her close friend.
Nicole’s generous offer could not have come at a better time for Ashlee.
The 25 year-old former pop star is still being devastated over being uncermoniously axed from “Melrose Place” just two months into the season. She made her Broadway debut on Nov. 30, taking on the role of Roxie Hart in a revival of “Chicago,” but her planned 10-week-run ends in February.
