Ashlee Simpson

It can’t be easy being the younger sister of a global pop star, but singer/songwriter Ashlee Simpson blazed her own rock-fueled musical path with a fresh spin on life and love in the spotlight.

Born in 1984 in Waco, Texas, Simpson moved to L.A.

with her family in 1999 to focus on big sister Jessica’s music career—but Ashlee was just as ambitious.
