Ashlee Nicole Simpson was born in Dallas on October 3, 1984. She is an American singer, actress and the younger sister of singer Jessica Simpson.Even though she hasn't been in the spotlight as long as her big sis Jessica, Ashlee Simpson has been preparing for a career in entertainment since she was just a little kid. Ashlee started studying dance when she was only four years old, and at 11, became the youngest person ever admitted to the School of American Ballet. It wasn't long before she was dancing professionally, and it was Jessica who gave Ashlee her first big break. Ashlee became a part of Jessica's stage show, dancing in the background and supporting her sister. Simpson spent three years on tour supporting her sibling and garnering her own fan-base. But Ashlee was determined to break free from the shadow of her famous sis and in 2001 she did exactly that.

In 2001 Ashlee began acting, landing small roles in television shows and movies. She appeared on the big screen last year in the film The Hot Chick alongside Rob Schneider. She already has television appearances under her belt, including a guest-starring role on Malcolm In the Middle. She has also appeared alongside her sister on Saved By The Bell, The Donny & Marie Show, The Rosie O'Donnell Show, The View, The Tonight Show With Jay Leno and a Disney Christmas show and concert special.

Ashlee's big break came in 2002 when she was cast as Simon Camden's love interest on 7th Heaven. While that role showed that Ashlee could act, it didn't change the fact that what she really wanted to do was sing. Later Ashlee played the character Cecilia on the television show from 2002 until the beginning of her singing career in 2004, at which point she said that she would no longer regularly play the role. Aside from contributing a song to the Freaky Friday soundtrack (which also featured tunes from Lindsay Lohan and Simple Plan), Ashlee didn't have much singing experience - though that didn't stop her from trying to launch a solo career.
 
In 2003, Geffen Records signed her to a music deal and Ashlee began working on her first album immediately. Because Jessica was having so much success with her show Newlyweds, Ashlee decided to go the reality TV route as well. Her series, called The Ashlee Simpson Show, premiered in June of 2004 on MTV and documented the entire process of making an album - from writing the songs to recording them. Show ran for eight weekly episodes from June 16 until August 4, 2004 and helped to establish recognition for her. When the album (called Autobiography) was finally released on July, 20, 2004, it went straight to number one - a feat that big sister Jessica Simpson has never been able to accomplish.

It debuted at number one in its first week, selling over 398,000 copies, and has remained at number one for three of the four weeks since its release. Her first single is the song "Pieces of Me", which she said was written about her then-boyfriend, Ryan Cabrera. Her planned second single is "Shadow", which is about living in the shadow of her sister's dreams and accomplishments. Ashlee's favorite song from her album is Undiscovered, which still makes her cry when she sings it.

Ashlee has a somewhat different, more rock-oriented image than that of her sister. Previously blonde like Jessica, she dyed her hair dark during the recording of the reality show, after she had finished filming for 7th Heaven (although she has said that the change of hair color was not intended to separate herself from Jessica), and her songs have rock elements absent from her sister's music. The biggest influence on Ashlee's look and music is No Doubt's Gwen Stefani.

At the 2004 Teen Choice Awards, held on August 8, 2004, Simpson received the "Song of the Summer" award for "Pieces of Me", as well as the "Fresh Face" award.

Currently living in Los Angeles, Simpson enjoys spending her free time vintage shopping, writing and recording music and hanging out with friends.

Ashlee Simpson (Ashlee Nicole Simpson) was born on October 3, 1984, in Waco, Texas, and raised in Dallas. She's the daughter of Joe and Tina Simpson, and the younger sister of pop star/reality TV queen Jessica Simpson.

Biography and Career :

Attending Prairie Creek Elementary School, Ashlee Simpson's talent was apparent early on: at age 4 she started dancing, and by the time she was 11, she was admitted into the prestigious School of American Ballet, the youngest person in that school's history.

When Ashlee Simpson was 14, she began to dance professionally, and the Simpson family moved to Los Angeles. Not long after, Ashlee wen
t on the road, dancing as part of her sister's stage show. She supported Jessica's rise to fame from 1999 to 2001, all the while dreaming of acting and even pursuing her own music career.

In 2001, Ashlee Simpson made her first solo television appearance in a small role on Malcolm in the Middle, and during this time she appeared alongside her more famous sibling on Saved by the Bell, The Donny & Marie Show, The Rosie O'Donnell Show, The View, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, and a Disney Christmas show and concert special. Ashlee Simpson also took a part in the Rob Schneider comedy, The Hot Chick (2002).

But it was on TV that Ashlee Simpson first got the role that would catapult her to greater stardom. In 2002, she was cast as Cecilia Smith, girlfriend of Simon Camden on the popular WB drama 7th Heaven. While playing this recurring role, Ashlee Simpson took lessons from renowned acting coach Janet Alhanti.
All the same, Ashlee Simpson began to take small steps toward becoming a singer as well, and in between breaks in her shooting schedule she recorded songs such as "Just Let Me Cry" for the Freaky Friday soundtrack.

In late 2003, Ashlee Simpson signed a recording contract with Geffen Records to make her first album. At the same time, her father Joe (who produces Jessica Simpson's Newlyweds reality show on MTV) asked Ashlee if she too wanted to have a show built around her. Ashlee Simpson declined at first, but agreed when Joe Simpson suggested it be about the making of Ashlee's upcoming album.Ashlee Simpson sex scene and hot scene.

The Ashlee Simpson Show premiered on June 16, 2004, on MTV, and the album, Autobiography, will see its release on July 20, after the show finishes its run. The debut single, "Pieces of Me," is already enjoying heavy radio play.

But although Ashlee Simpson is now entering her sister Jessica's turf, she takes pains to point out the differences between the two singing Simpsons. She says her style is more punk and less pop, and that just as she's broadening her profile, so is her sister. "It's funny 'cause Jess is doing acting for the first time," observes Ashlee, "and I'm doing music, so we sort of switched. It's really great."

As for the future, right now Ashlee Simpson is content to spend her free time having fun, going shopping, and hanging out with her friends.
