Nicole Richie pitched an idea to ABC and they swallowed it and as a special present to her friend Ashlee, Nicole has gifted her a role. Now, this is risky.

Ashlee was thin, pale and went back to dyed black hair. Jessica was tan, blonde and curvy. Talk about extremes. Their dad said via Gossip Girls:
Pete Wentz blames Ashlee Simpson Wentz for Fall Out Boys’ problems. Ouch. That can’t be too good for the marriage! Fall Out Boy is taking a break until Pete at least, can get things together and calm down.

Pete and Ashlee got together right at the peak of his career, and Pete kind of ignored it from then. OK, not ignored, but was distracted. He says via from Contact Music:
Ashlee Simpson Was a Diva
Ashlee Simpson was a diva. Ashlee got herself canned from the set of Melrose Place because she acted like a spoiled brat and didn’t make much effort in her role. So, the show head honchos axed her in order to make room to pay for bigger stars, like Heather Locklear.

Ashlee’s people tried to put it out there that she knew her contract was short term and that she wasn’t fired. Her leaving was planned. Riiiight. From Fox News:
Jessica Simpson recently Twittered to the masses that Melrose Place is crap, suggesting that her recently fired sister, Ashlee, is too good for the series. Ashlee Simpson (much to EVERYBODY’s chagrin) scored a role on the revamped Melrose Place on the CW. It only took a few short months before producers realized she couldn’t act and fired her.
