Truth rating: 2

Scary Skinny Ashlee Simpson” is the title of a National Enquirer article that claims she’s dropping pounds to compete with the other stars of “Melrose Place.”

According to the supermarket tab, Ashlee Simpson “has been crash-dieting and stressing over how she measures up to her gorgeous co-stars on the CW series.” The rag quotes a so-called source saying, “She substitutes Red Bull for some meals, and snacks on nuts and other small things instead of having a decent lunch or dinner.”

OK, here’s the real deal. “She eats,” says a source close to the singer-actress, who acknowledges that Simpson’s “burning calories by the truckload, but it’s not because she’s not eating” to compete with co-workers. 

Gossip Cop‘s insider assures us that Simpson is healthy, but has lost a little weight because she’s putting in “14-17 hour days on set and running after a rambunctious 11 month old.”

Nice job, Enquirer, with exaggerating the legitimate weight loss of a hard-working mom.

    Gossipcop, sometimes your naivete threans your credibility. Ashley Simpson is losing weight and at a rapid pace, because she doesn’t want to be ridiculed and because, yes, she is on a primetime show where the women strive to be a negative 0. If running after a ‘rambunctious 11 month old,’ was all it took to look like a skeleton, then Kate Gosselin would be a size -000. I have no idea what Simpson is doing, I do know she is very thing, and much MUCH thinner than she was before she had a baby. I seriously doubt that having a baby is a known weight-loss regimen – mention that to most women, and they’ll tell you the opposite is true. It would make more sense if Simpson had been dropping pounds when she had a couple hit records and was on tour and always on the go. But she was actually about 2-3 dress sizes bigger then. So now that she’s had a baby, and is one place all the time, the weight melts off in a drastic manner?? The size she is now, is very obviously NOT her body type. Nice try, but busting a lie with more lies just makes you more of a celebrity mouthpiece and not an entity that is intent on busting the lying tabs. You need to bust the lying celebs on occasion too.
