Jessica Simpson finally got around to tweeting about Melrose Place firing her sister, Ashlee, and she is none too happy with the writing staff. In fact, Jess thinks the show is worse than any of her straight-to-DVD movies like Major Movie Star and Blonde Ambition.

Last night she tweeted: "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...Watch til Jan.. :)"

Wow. So Jessica believes that Melrose Place only got press because of Ashlee's amazing acting? That's not entirely accurate. While it's true that Ashlee was the most buzzed-about castmember and did most of the press leading up to the soap's premiere, it's the "amazing" part we're not quite buying. That said, we do think it's nice Jess is being a supportive big sister.

And in case you're curious, this is the "amazing" Ashlee Simpson-Wentz in action:

As for why Ashlee was fired, there are two rumors going around right now: one that it was all Heather Locklear's doing and another that "she's the worst actress, but nobody will tell her." It's kind of a choose-your-own-rumor adventure.

With the amazing Ashlee Simpson-Wentz gone, how is Melrose Place going to get press? Maybe with some celebrity stunt casting, which is what's going on in this gallery.
