This is just upsetting.  So we’ve all heard rumors about there being a Melrose Place remake in the works after the success of the 90210 remake, however I’ve really been hoping that it wouldn’t happen because while I love the new 90210, I really think they need to stop with the remakes.  Don’t we have any original material to put on TV?  Regardless, the latest news is that the new Melrose Place is a go, and not only that but Ashlee Simpson has just been confirmed as a new castmember, a “sex-kitten” to be exact.

Just to be clear, I like Ashlee Simpson.  In fact, I think I am one of the only people in the country who has all of Ashlee’s albums and secretly LOVES them.  But when she was acting on 7th Heaven, GOOD GOD….I just wanted it to stop…just make it stop….and now she’s making it start again.  Ashlee if you’re listening right now, I’d rather you stay home and take care of Bronx Mowgli, sing some songs on the side, and let Pete stick to the acting, because he’s actually good at it…Thanks!

Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz posted a Holiday greeting on friendsorenemies.com that displayed the first photo released of 5 week old Bronx Mowgli.

Along with the photo was a message that said, “We decided to share the best gift we could ever receive with you: Bronx Mowgli Wentz.”  The greeting also asked all of us to give and listed a few “worthwhile charities” to donate to.  The charities listed included: roomtogrow.org, richiemaddenfoundation.com and theirc.org.  

It is so nice to see that celebrities today are remembering the less fortunate and trying to make a difference.
