According to
Star Magazine (
via fabulous gossip blog Hit Dan Back), when
Heather Locklear arrived for her guest appearance on the new
Melrose Place, one of her first orders of business was having
Asslee Simpson fired.
“Heather was jealous of Ashlee immediately,” says an insider. “She knew Ashlee was one of the bigger names on set, and she wanted her gone so she could make it her show. Heather is very political and calculating…”
On October 22, the CW abruptly announced that
Asslee was outta there, along with
hottie Colin Egglesfield (

The reason? According to
Perez Hilton,
Asslee had been making fun of
Locklear's age...
Apparently, no one had any qualms firing Simpson. Heather became furious with her after she had been poking fun of the 48-year old's age with members of the cast and crew.
When will people learn that you don't mess with Amanda Woodward? And you definitely don't make fun of her (
advanced) age. SHE.WILL.DESTROY.YOU.
