ashlee simpson to be on london stage

tri_sarah_tops · Marc Jacobs

Don't you have to be able to sing/dance to be cast in a musical?

scarlett · Marc Jacobs

You know, I had that same thought.

I thought celebrities only appeared in stage musicals to revive their careers -- maybe that's what she's doing.

I really don't feel like she has much of a career to revive. She would have to LEARN how to actually sing before she can really go forward. I wonder if that London production lowered their standards...

scarlett · Marc Jacobs

I think her career is more that she's famous for being famous, not necessarily talented. So in that respect, being in the play keeps her in the limelight and press.

Isn't she a classically trained ballerina? Like before she and Jessica were even famous, she was attending the New York School of Ballet or something?

Of course, she most definitely can't sing.
