Ashlee Simpson Moving To Melrose Place

03/13/2009

Just four months after becoming a mother, Ashlee Simpson-Wentz is returning to work with a role in the remake of TV hit "Melrose Place."

The 24-year-old and her rocker husband, Pete Wentz, welcomed son Bronx Mowgli in November, and the star has been enjoying an extended break from her singing and acting careers.

But Simpson-Wentz will follow up a recent guest appearance on crime drama "CSI: NY" by taking on the part of Violet, a small town girl with a sex-kitten alter ego in the updated version of "Melrose Place."

Confirming the rumors, she tells the New York Post, "I'm thrilled to be joining the cast of 'Melrose Place' and look forward to being a part of its new generation of residents."
