Whether you like them or not, Jessica Simpson and Ashlee Simpson-Wentz are in the public eye for singing and, yes, acting. Here’s the neat thing about paparazzi parenting. Remember when Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton proclaimed a long time ago that it takes a village to raise a child? Well, in Hollywood I’d like to think that pap parenting isn’t only limited to parenting. There are siblings, the extended family, and even the people you grew up with who were always like your aunt and uncle (even though they weren’t technically blood-related).

Kudos to Jessica Simpson for sticking up for her sis! When you’re in your twenties it’s not like your parents are gonna come to the rescue 24/7 (nor should they!) so you gotta be the big sis and speak your mind. You may not know this or may not even watch it, but her sis, Ashlee Simpson-Wentz was recently cut from the revival of Melrose Place on the CW.

Although Ashlee did the professional thing and issued a statement essentially saying she was grateful for the opportunity, yada yada, her sister did the opposite. That’s right, she hit up Twitter!

On Sunday night Jessica tweeted, “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.” Although Jess’s rep did not respond for comments on her behalf, I give her props for speaking her mind and sticking up for her sister. If she doesn’t do it, who will?

That said, do you think it crossed the line and was in bad taste or to heck with it! She has her sister’s back and that’s all that counts.
