Ashlee Simpson's dad concerned about her lesbian role in debut movie

Ashlee Simpson's father and manager Joe Simpson reportedly had the plot of her debut film changed so she would not play a lesbian character.

Ashlee Simpson's manager father, Joe Simpson, has demanded the plot of her first movie is changed so that his daughter does not have to play a lesbian. According to gossip site Pagesix.Com Mr Simpson thinks playing a gay role in her debut movie might damage Ashlee's future Hollywood success. The site quotes him as saying: "She [Ashlee] said, 'But it's cool, it's edgy, it's different,' and of course the filmmakers were like, 'It's cool for a woman to be a lesbian.' But I changed it. It doesn't work for her to be gay the first thing out. She's going to be a huge movie star." So that's that sorted.
