ASHLEE SIMPSON LANDS PART IN THE MUSICAL CHICAGO.
Gah! Papa Joe really pulled off a smooth one for daughter Ashlee Simpson. Looks like she is going to play Roxie Hart in the London run of the musical Chicago. Yes, no foolin,' and it ain't April 1st folks. Simpson has already started rehearsals in New York and her involvement has been confirmed by Chicago producer Barry Weissler. A source told Star magazine, "Ashlee's a dancer; her background is in dance. She wants to do live theatre. "This will put all of those critics to rest. She's always wanted to be on stage, but she got diverted when she started selling so many albums." Um, yeah, okay thanks Papa Joe. I like Ashlee's albums just fine, but I'm sorry, I saw that girl when she was acting on 7th Heaven and she was just horrendous. I just wonder if her acid-reflux infested pipes will be strong enough to carry off a major part in Chicago. Seems pretty risky to me. I gotta hand it to those Simpson's though ... they take a licking, get a new nose and somehow seem to keep on ticking.

maybe they won't let her back into the USA after she is done in London. (please please please)
She was way cooler before she became Jessica the second.
Hope she has a good understudy.
wow. That's a pretty demanding role. Lip synching on SNL was a bit of a test, but maybe she can pull this one off... for real.
She was prettier than JS before surgery and also prettier now. Jess has a hard look, she has gotta stop parting that greasy long shag down the middle.
well, we all know she can dance...but i don't remember there being a hoedown in Chicago.
Its a revised edition.
please ashley dont forget the words
Is it the London stage? If so, it will be contaminated and there goes one of me dreams to tread the boards with my favourite English actors.
9:55, LOL !!!
These weird family units are showing that Hollywood is about more than talent or connections. You need pushy parents who will sell their soul to the devil, like Joe Simpson, Dina Lohan or the Carter family.
Too bad for some knockout actress who was just waiting for her big break.
Both sisters suck bigtime.
The music business is just pathetic at this point.
I agree, ANYONE can make a cd right now. The music biz does pretty much blow.
she looks beuatiful now, but that doesn't mean she has talent.
Hollywood sucks burn hollywood burn damn you!
"Her background is in dance"? Please. Clearly, she has gotten an advanced degree in making an ass of herself and driving the General Lee through dirt piles in the backwoods.
She was the youngest in that ballet school because papa Joe Blow lied about her age. Have you ever seen her dance with any grace and style? I think not!
