Ashlee Simpson Relates To ‘Chicago’ Role

Ashlee Simpson tells The Associated Press she relates to her role as fame-hungry Roxie Hart in the London run of the musical ‘Chicago’. She’s been there, done that. “The play is absolutely all about celebrity and wanting to be famous and having your name in the papers and your picture in the papers,” the 21-year-old singer-actress explained. “And, in that sense, it’s been kind of cool because I’ve really got to connect to that, because I’ve seen that world and been in that world.”
