Pete Wentz and Ashlee SimpsonASHLEE Simpson-Wentz behaved like a “total diva” on the set of Melrose Place, it has been claimed.

The singer and alleged actress — who was recently dropped from the show — was apparently very unpopular with her colleagues.

“Ashlee was kicked off Melrose Place because she was a total diva on set, late all the time, and deeply disliked by fellow cast members,” an insider said. “It created a lot of discord among the cast.”

The source says Ashlee was dropped so the show could afford to have Heather Locklear reprise her role.

“They basically trimmed the fat and made it possible for Heather to join the show,” said the source. “Heather is a much bigger name than Ashlee.”

Sources have also described Ashlee’s acting as “embarrassingly bad”.

“They hired her because they needed a good name to help create buzz,” a show insider told Us Weekly magazine.

“But she was embarrassingly bad. Producers cut her down as much as possible.

“She’s the worst actress, but nobody will tell her.”

    Yeah whatever. The more I read this the more it does nothing but convince me that Ashlee was picked on and kicked off the show because they'd rather have Heather.. Once again I say. Ashlee was kicked to the curb for no real reason but they had to find an excuse…

    I'm not really that surprised. I think her acting is terrible. She sounds so wooden and she does all these funny facial movements as she talks.
