<b>Ashlee Simpson</b><br>
<br>
<b>Living in the shadow</b><br>
<br>
Joe Truett Simpson loves his daughter Jessica. She sings like a nightingale and she looks like a Barbie doll. If only the world could get a glimpse of Jess, Joe knows theyd love her just as much as he does. So, whats a Texas minister with a mission to do? Pack up the fam and head to L.A., of course.<br>
<br>
But wait Joe!<br>
<br>
What about your youngest daughter, Ashlee? Hmmm Ashlee can spend the late nineties working as Jessicas backup dancer! The symbolism is excruciating.
