Ashlee Simpson Fired from Melrose Place?

Ashlee Simpson Wentz is alleged to have been "FIRED" from Melrose Place.

Rumors are swirling about why. Some think that the diva Heather Locklear had something to do with it. Others say her acting skills are not great and others claim she was only signed on the show for a handful of episodes.

Interestingly enough, her sister, Jessica Simpson, posted this via her Twitter account...

"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"

This makes us think that Simpson Wentz was indeed fired and that she did not have much warning about leaving the show.

What do you think the reason is? Let us know under "comments." We are team Ashlee and will not be watching Melrose Place after she leaves!
