Simpson Watch

Timbaland can fix anything, right? That’s what Ashlee Simpson is counting on.

Lots of positive buzz about her new song “Out Of My Head” which has been blessed with the Timbaland touch and she could really use the career boost.

Her 2004 debut album debuted at number one and sold over 2.5 million copies.

Her follow-up in 2006 failed to live up to the first one, selling less than half that amount. Ashlee’s third effort will be released in March.

Oh, wow. So, it would seem that I have this blog, SimpsonWatch.com. And I’m supposed to post on it about Ashlee and Jessica.

Except…I kind of kept putting it off, and putting it off, and there was just so much more interesting things to write about Britney Spears, and so I kept putting it off…until finally, I remembered: hey. Didn’t I used to write a Simpson blog also? I should really get on that.

So…what have Jessica and Ashlee been up to lately? Not much, truth be told. But I’ll still share some tidbits with you:

Ashlee, it seems, is left denying rumors whether she’s ever used Botox. This seems kind of obvious, she’s only 23 after all, but the rumors started swirling and now she’s trying to do damage control. So she’s saying, “NO, I DON’T USE BOTOX” and crediting her eyebrows to her makeup artist. Whatever. Do we really care about this? I say: No. Moving along! (more…)

Ashlee Simpson recently did a photo shoot — not for a magazine, but for her upcoming album — and WOW! These photos turned out incredible. I’ve put them in order, from my favorite to my least favorite, though I have to admit that even my least favorite is pretty good.

I’m not sure how much these were photo-shopped, but I’d love to see the “before” shots to compare them. Photoshop is a lifesaver for that kind of thing.

My favorite photo is the one posted above – I love the warm, golden tones of Ashlee’s skin and hair, the metallic texture of the background and the stark black polo. Ashlee skin looks flawless in this photo! LOVE! (more…)

Yes, Ashlee Simpson has an alter ego, Vicky Valentine, and I’m curious to know (a) how long Vicky has existed and (b) how Ashlee came up with the name. It kind of sounds like a porn star’s name, doesn’t it? Or at least a stripper.

Ashlee says about Vicky: “You will know when Vicky is in the room” (presumably because Vicky is wild and crazy). I guess it’s really Vicky Valentine that has been dating Pete Wentz, then? Ashlee has been hard at work on her latest album, which due out in November. Read more about the album: (more…)

Now that Jessica has finished filming “Major Movie Star”, she’s got more time for the important things in life. Well, important to her, anyway.

She’s been seen lunching with her sister, showing off her Valentino bag and (lest your forget her origins) singing! I can’t confirm the rumor, but I hear that she’s working on a country album. With Willie Nelson. In Nashville. (more…)

ASHLEE CONFESSES: My first TV appearance was a Kohl’s commercial.

Ashlee Simpson attended the Just Cavalli Flagship Launch Party last week, and looked foxy while there. I’ll tell you - this girl cleans up well. Everything about her ensemble - shoes, dress, jewelry, makeup - looks perfect. It also makes me think that she must not have dressed herself. If that were the case, she might have just worn skinny jeans and a black shirt. (more…)

Joe Simpson and Pete Wentz whooped up on some bodyguards who hassled their beloved Ashlee Simpson the other night.

It happened when the group was trying to leave a party at the Mirage. Bouncers let Ashlee, Papa Joe and boyfriend Pete pass through to get to their waiting SUV, but they stuck out their arms and stopped the rest of their entourage. Pete demanded that they let his buddies through, screaming “This is my car! I paid for this car!” along with some choice expletives. (more…)

Fall Out Boy Pete Wentz joined his lovely girlfriend, Ashlee Simpson, at the MTV VMAs in Las Vegas, and I must say: he looked happier than I’ve ever seen him in a long time. Relaxed, even. Of course, that might be because he’s trying to win big money…(not that he needs it).

(more…)

Ashlee Simpson rocked the 2007 VMAs in an ultra-short dress that showed off her ballerina-esque legs. I think she looked cute, but her skin was a little pale. Kind of ghostly. And paired with that dark eyeliner, she actually looked goth. But maybe that’s the look she was going for. (more…)

Ashlee Simpson joined her big sister, Jessica, in New York City for Fashion Week. Jess is nowhere to be found in these photos, but Ashlee and her mom, Tina, look like they’re having a ball at BCBG Max Azria’s show. And who’s that sitting next to Ashlee and Tina? Why, none other than Ciara! Looks like Max Azria pulled out the big guns. (more…)

I told you a few days ago that I’d do a series called “Seventeen Things You Didn’t Know About Ashlee” based on an interview she gave Seventeen magazine, my arch nemesis. (Well, that may be taking it a little far, but whatever.) So, without further ado, SEVENTEEN THINGS:

ASHLEE CONFESSES: “I’m really grumpy in the morning.”
