Roxie Hart must be the most popular character ever. Past Roxie's include Renee Zellweger in the movie and Brooke Shields, Rita Wilson, and Melanie Griffith on Broadway. We reported the rumors that Ashlee was going to be the latest Hollywood celeb to take the stage in the West End production of Chicago. Now it is official that Ash will kick off her 6 week stint on September 25th.

    How can she lip sync her way through this one? WOW Papa Simpson really dropped Jessica.. is that why he has Ashley looking like her? Something is off with that family

    If any of you go to see it please let me know how badly she sucks.

    I agree babsee...the prerequisite for this role must have been that must be able to sing.

    *confused*

    Wow, Ashlee Simpson, is that you?
    What a nice slap in the face to all the talented actresses out there who can actually hold a tune. This is really pathetic.

    she must have some huge Jessica issues....I can imagine her dad saying "if you look more like Jessica your career will really take off" hence the nose job....next will the infamous "knee operation" aka the boob job.

    she does not have a great voice. Far from it. She doesn't even have the raw talent Jessica has.

    What?? Room spinning...head hurts.... eyes must be reading wrong.

    1)SHE CAN'T SING!
    2) Live stage acting is so much harder that acting in front of a camera. It's very real and not everyone can do it and I don't beilieve Ashlee can.

    I hope her acid reflux doesn't act up and she can't sing. I mean the cd doesn't skip and she messes up.

    This really sickens me! I can't believe the theatre community would cheapen their productions by adding Ashlee simply to get people (the rich little teeny boppers) to come see the show. What a bunch o sellouts! If I was the rest of the cast I'd quit.
    I have friends and family that are Broadway actors and they work hard to perfect their craft and in two seconds it's been crapped on by Joe Pimpson.

    Can I make my birthday wish early?

    (closing eyes thinking hard)
    Dear Birthday Wish Fairy,
    Please make all the people that already have their tickets for this show storm the box office demanding tickets for nights when she isn't performing

    *blow*

    Haaa haaa!! I like Ashley. She is a cute young and vibrant girl who is thoughtful, kind and softhearted- it's too bad people think of her sister when they see her. Two different people COMPLETELY.

    Another opportunity for the British public to say: Americans suck. Oh well.

    Ugh. I didn't even know that was Ashlee!! That's so sad. She can't sing, don't we all know that already?
    Isn't there some aspring mid-Westerner out there with REAL talent that dreams should come true? Seriously, I'm over the whole Simpson family. I can't wait for Jamie Lynn to start...

    If she was on Broadway, I'd definitely go see her. There is nothing wrong with her. She is beautiful, smart and talanted. Bashers are just bashing because they hate Jessica and the father .... Common, give her a break.

    I think she's better than her sister, but being Roxie Hart is too much for her.

    It is ironic that my type of people bash, yet it's written under a comment calling someone else ignorant with a small mind.

    ImCurly.. I think that in actuallity people don't like her because she is a hypocrite poser and on top of that just happens to have Jess as a sister and a pimp as a father. She lost a lot of fans with the whole "I'm different.. I love my looks.. I love being me" message to then go and get plastic surgery. And the SNL thing and the football performance thing and the kiss my feet and don't you know who I am thing. But other than that.. she's a peach!!

    and a lot of people see green.. even people who are not admirable.. William Hung made some green but I wouldn't call him talented. Milli Vanilli made some green.. whats your point?

    The point is you are a fan of hers and thas cool, but don't expect everyone to she her through your rose colored glasses.

    REALLY NOT IN THE MOOD CURLY! Leave it at the bus stop chica...

    I could careless about her father. She has no talent. I call it like I see it. She is pathetic wannabe. I don't need to repeat what Imabeliever said but let it be known that I feel the same way.

    And BTW, I like Jaime-Lynn. I watch her Nickelodeon show.

    omg, i would never go see something with her in it. who is their audience, seriously. and look at the others that played this part, rita wilson?? not to be mean, but this part calls for a little somethin-somethin and i don't see that in rita. maybe this is why i'm not a casting agent, lol.
