Now that her sister Ashlee Simpson-Wentz has been canned on Melrose Place, Jessica Simpson says she isn't a fan of the CW soap.
The singer, 29, used to promote her sister's former show regularly on her Twitter ("Everyone watch my sis on melrose place tonight," she wrote Oct. 20).
But on Sunday, she changed her tune drastically. Jessica wrote: "CW catching up on MP.who writes this crap?i have had bad scripts to work with,but this?thank God my sister is amazing and got you some press."

According to the new issue of Us Weekly (on newsstands now), Ashlee, a veteran of TV's 7th Heaven, was canned because producers thought she couldn't act.
"They hired her because they needed a good name to help create buzz," a set insider told Us Weekly. "But she was embarrassingly bad. Producers cut her down as much as possible."

What's next for Ashlee?
Possibly more acting.
Us Weekly reports the mom of 11-month-old Bronx (dad is rocker Pete Wentz, 30) doesn't want to return to her songstress roots. "She’s reading scripts. Acting is her focus now," a source tells Us Weekly. “If she had an album, she’d have to tour and be away from Bronx. She wants consistency.”

I was excited to watch MP before I even knew Ashlee would be on there. I have nothing against her, but they didn't need her.
i'm sure they're lovely people and it's nice to see family standing up for family but she IS a pretty terrible actress ... and most definitely not a singer! she screams ... and when she's lucky, it resembles the pitch. i was always surprised she didn't have more vocal issues than she did. not a huge fan of jessica's "singing" either ... terrible vocal technique but there's at least musical talent there ... AND i will admit, i still think newlyweds was one of the most hysterical things ever on television! it is my professional opinion that they both stick to design. I dig Jessica's line of shoes! Granted I nearly kill myself trying to walk in them since they're all like 14 in heels ... but hey, they're hot. :-) All happens for a reason. She's a new mom. At least she can have more time with the kid now!
The real question is who is worse at acting... Jessica or Ashley? That entire family needs to stop acting. And don't get me wrong... I was obsessed with Newlyweds and I listened to their music.... but their ACTING SUCKS!!!!!
OMG All of the SImpson's are DELUSIONAL! I thought this would wake them up and give them a dose of humble pie, but nope! Ashlee was so incredibly bad it literally shocked me. The only actress worse than Ashlee is the actress who plays Naomi's mom on 90210 (although I'm sure she was fired too)!
the only thing i hated about that show was ashlee, thank god she is gone now. i will have no complaints when i dont have to watch her terrible acting every week!
WOO HOO i can watch again!! She was a bad actress thats all there is to it!
jessica is dilusional...ashlee's acting sucked from the very begining and she needed to go...and can anyone get that girl some volume shampoo or something for her hair!
Jessica is such a hypocrite!!! The show didn't work out for Ashley so now she goes and bashes it!! Did her church teach her to do that???? What a phony!!! She cries when ppl bash her so now she goes and does it....LOSER!!!!
I have to laugh, because Ashlee's charecter and HER acting, sucked. Melrose is GREAT, and I had total contempt for Violet because Ashlee is a TERRIBLE actor.
Well, honey, it takes crap to know crap, I guess. Jessica has been involved in a lot of crap so I would imagine she's the expert now.
