Ashlee Simpson, along with her Melrose Place co-stars arrived on the red carpet for the series’ launch party earlier this week.
There is lots to celebrate for Ashlee: a hot career, being part of a great show and being a new mom. But, is the stress of being in the spotlight and being a working mom getting to her? Being a starlet in Hollywood has its ups and downs. One of the downs is definitely being heavily scrutinized for your weight. One bad picture from one bad angle in one bad outfit, like a pair of unflattering, high-waisted jeans, and you’re the poster girl for that dreaded three letter word: fat.
Stars like Ashlee‘s big sister, Jessica Simpson, who clearly looks to me to be a size 6 at her heaviest, are called out for their weight and are considered to be “full-figured” or “curvaceous”. Last time I checked, size 6 was pretty damn skinny.
Ashlee, however, is a new mom and the pressure that these women face to bounce back quickly is unlike anything I’ve ever seen. Who can forget Sarah Jessica Parker‘s ripped abs only weeks after giving birth to her son, James?
Ashlee bounced back very quickly, too, but I hope she’s not taking it too far. What do you think?
