Ashlee Nicole Simpson (born October 3, 1984 is an American singer and actress. She rose to prominence in mid-2004 due to the success of her number-one debut album Autobiography and the reality series, The Ashlee Simpson Show.
In October 2005, following a North American concert tour and a film appearance, Simpson released her second number-one album, I Am Me. Her third album, Bittersweet World, was released almost three years later in April 2008. The following month, she married musician Pete Wentz and announced that they were expecting a child. On November 20, 2008, Simpson gave birth to their son, Bronx Mowgli Wentz. Simpson filed for divorce on February 8, 2011, citing “irreconcilable differences.”
Simpson was born in Waco, Texas and raised in Richardson, Texas. She is the daughter of Tina Ann (née Drew), a homemaker, and Joe Truett Simpson, a former Baptist youth minister who is now hermanager. She attended Prairie Creek Elementary. She has an older sister, Jessica, who is also a singer. Simpson began studying classical ballet when she was three years old, eventually becoming an accomplished dancer. She was admitted to the School of American Ballet in New York City at the age of 11, a year in advance. Around that time, Simpson suffered from an eating disorder; the condition lasted for about six months before her parents stepped in and got her the help she needed to overcome the issue. After Jessica landed a record deal, the Simpson family decided to move to Los Angeles,California, where Ashlee began appearing in television commercials.
When her older sister Jessica became a star after releasing her first album, Ashlee became one of her backup dancers. She later began appearing in films and television series, including an episode of the sitcom Malcolm in the Middle in 2001, a minor role in the 2002 film The Hot Chick and a recurring role on the family drama series 7th Heaven. She recorded a song entitled “Christmas Past, Present and Future” in 2002 for the holiday album School’s Out! Christmas, which was later re-released on Radio Disney Jingle Jams in 2004 and 2005. In the summer of 2003, she released a song called “Just Let Me Cry” for the soundtrack to the film Freaky Friday. She occasionally appeared on Newlyweds: Nick and Jessica, a reality show documenting the married life of her sister, Jessica, and her then-husband, Nick Lachey.
