Ashlee Simpson Joins Melrose Place Cast
Ashlee Simpson has become the latest tenant of The CW's refurbished Melrose Place.
The onetime 7th Heaven star will play small-town girl Violet, a character whose disarming naiveté masks the calculating, shrewd sex kitten within. In other words, the little tramp's Sydney.
Heather Locklear is also in talks to return as Amanda Woodward. Melrose 2.0 will be on the CW, debuting on Tuesdays after 90210 in the fall. This story has been all over the blogosphere today and I read it last night, didn't know it was such a big friggin' deal. Do we even care, all? This show will get canceled, hopefully, and Ashlee will be on next season's Dancing With the Has Beens.

How does the CW expect to ressurect a popular 90's show with Ashlee most likely at or near its helm? She's annoying, somewhat polorizing, and will probably alienate parts of the show's expected audience.
Confusing. Does the CW not utlize audience research?

I keep forgetting she used to act. Perhaps she won't suck. I can't wait to watch her on it.
