Hollywood star Jessica Simpson vented out her frustration via Twitter over news that “Melrose Place” producers had kicked out her sister Ashlee out of the CW series.

Jessica tweeted on Nov. 1: “CW catching up on MP.who writes this crap?i have had bad scripts to work with,but this?thank God my sister is amazing and got you some press.”

She re-posted the message of another Twitter user who said: “ashlee was too good for that show and was the ONLY reason I watched,and won't anymore!”

Rumor has it that Ashlee was axed because of her “embarrassingly bad” acting.

"They hired her because they needed a good name to help create buzz. She’s the worst actress, but nobody will tell her,” an “insider” told a U.S. gossip magazine.

Contrary to the remark, producers Darren Swimmer and Todd Slavkin (the team that gave us “Smallville”) are all praises for Ashlee.

"She came on her own merits as an actor; we thought that she was great for the role and she's doing a fantastic job. We really are happy with her."

Before joining the cast, Ashlee was in the seventh and eighth seasons of the family drama, “7th Heaven,” in which she portrayed the role of Cecilia Smith, girlfriend of Simon Camden (David Gallagher).

In the 2009 spin-off of the '90s hit series, Ashlee plays Violet Foster, the newest tenant in Sydney Andrew’s (Laura Leighton of the original “Melrose Place”) apartment complex, who finds her dead on the pool, which eventually launched the first season of the “Who Killed Sydney?” mystery.

Darren and Todd said their initial plan was to keep Ashlee (as well as her cast mate, Colin Egglesfield) for 12 episodes.

“We always knew that [Ashlee's] character of Violet would be instrumental in that as a suspect, and [Colin's character of] Augie as well.

“And once that murder mystery was solved, she would go on her way. That was the original plan going into the development of the show,” said Todd.

They added that both actors knew from the beginning that their stay may be short-lived.

“They knew ahead of time [that leaving was a possibility], [so] it wasn’t a complete shock.

“They’re total professionals and they took it like professionals. When you go into a show you never know what’s going to evolve and what the possibilities are,” he related.

In another item, Ashlee, whose last appearance in “Melrose” will be on January 2010, thanked the show’s cast and crew for the opportunity.

"Having the chance to play Violet on "Melrose Place" has been a thrill. Although I always knew her story would come to a final, insanely unpredictable end, playing a creepy, unstable character was something I always wanted to do, so I jumped at the chance,” said she.

Despite the show’s poor ratings, the producers said they will stand by it and they will continue to “write and produce the best show we know how.”
