The reviews are in and they're good. Ashlee's much anticipated debut in Chicago came last night in London at the Cambridge Theater. Apparently the pop star put on a fabulous performance and can actually sing live unlike her embarrassing moment on SNL last year. Way to redeem yourself Ash. Here's more:

London's West End got a taste of high-octane American glamour when US pop starlet Ashlee Simpson made her debut in the musical Chicago on Monday night. The 21-year-old raised the roof of the Cambridge Theatre with a flawless performance in the role of femme fatale Roxie Hart.

now that i think about it... this is probably the BEST move she could make to make herself more credible... distancing herself from jess too!
1huh...good for her, but I'll believe it when I see it
2we will see, she does look nice!
3yeah, if she can pull it off, more power to her. We know Jess can't do a whole lot, maybe Ash really does have the talent in the family **shudder**
4Wow this looks like a popularity meter with Asslee rising above her sister..LOL!
5That's good. I think it will make her credibility go a little bit up. I've felt so sorry for her after the SNL incident, and felt she was unfairly bashed. I kind of secretly root for her, doesn't mean I like her music (except Pieces of Me and LALA), but I root for her. Her music is better than Jessica's. I want that fedora!
6And for someone who has image issues don't do the double chin aww me squish.. it could cause another round of unnessarry plastic surgery.. congrats though on your performance..
7Well, that's good for her. Her hat is cute. London is hopefully far, far away from Pimp Daddy most of the time.
8okay whatever it is that Jess is wearing is all sorts of wrong.
9this is so weird. I feel like I should pinch myself.
10Good for her, Go Ash!
11Yours Truly,

i bet she got a boob job too.
12Yeah, it's good for her.
13She's pretty in these pics.
I think she has to fix her chin now.
hahahaha.
j/k.
I really think Ash has the talent. She can truly sing and I'm loving the songs on Pieces of Me. Just look at the two of them side by side. Ash is way cuter. Didn't anyone tell Jess that your foundation shouldn't be 5 shades lighter than your neck? She looks wigged out to me. Ash is positively beaming.
14Good for her.

15GEAUX SAINTS!
I never doubted Ashlee could do way better than her sister.
16It's like Jessica only makes bad career moves!
i've never liked her, donno why. After her nosejob she's really lookin' a lot like Jess. and that is not a good thing imho
17jess looks like crap
18Ok, I had to add: what the hell is up with Jessica's make up?! She looks like an undead here!
19o.O
its so creepy, she looks nothing like the old ashley
20This is the best news ever!! We may finaly be able to rid ourselves of the Simpson Hillbillies. They should stay in the UK where they are liked. YAY!!!!
21Haha, I don't buy that the performance was flawless--girl can't carry a tune in a bucket. The author of that article was being very, very generous (or, was being paid generously to be that generous)!
22Good for her! I don't really care for her or Jessica, but I'm glad that she did well.
23Perhaps she's not as talent-less as I thought.
Actually tis genuine em I check out british stuff and they are all saying she was really good. Surprising yes unbelievabel completely.
24I can say ever since this nose job deal she's looked really happy. I still swear she's a spitting image of Jess, but they are sisters and I guess they are allowed to!
25Or they have the same plastic surgeon.
26I honestly don't think Jess has gotten surgery. If she did I'd pray they'd fix her honker better. I know she admitted getting her lips done, but whatever the process was only lasted 4 months.
27Layla- I do think Jess has had some minor work. Her eyes and her lips look totally different then before her divorce.
28Layla, look at pictures of her from her first CD. She doen NOT look like the same person. Jessica had nose, eyes, chin, lips, boobs done. Don't believe these people when they say they are natural. Would you tell millions of people if you had work done? It would probably be too embarrassing to admit to it. I'm not judging her for lying but she has had it ALL done. She is not a natural beauty. No one in Hollywood is.
29I honestly think Jessica's looks have just matured and that's why she looks different. There for the longest time everyone thought Ashlee had a nose job before she REALLY did have one. Maybe I'm just gullible. lol
Okay I'm really going this time.
30Wow. Julia Roberts gets panned in her debut and Asslee gets praise. What's next? Jessica closing her mouth for a picture?
31Lol @ practically everything here. Is that lame?
32ummm... has anyone noticed Ashlee's wonky left eye??? looks like a botched up eye lift. all the same, i like the way she looks now, but i miss the old ash.
33She looks happy. Maybe she found her calling in life.
34Alright, I'll say it: I'm totally jealous of her. I'd kill to play Roxie Hart in a West End production of Chicago. *sigh* I'm off to sulk in a corner now...
35Yup, she has a wonky eye. Is that a doctor's mistake? Paris has one too ( she covers it with her hair). So, looks like Asslee and Paris have something in common.
36Dare I say it, but Ashlee's the cute Simpson now.
Jessica's been wearing WAY too much makeup, and can't dress worth a $hit. Doesn't she have a stylist?!?! When you're 5-ft. nothing you can't get away with wearing those huge garbage bag dresses.
37Jess looks like she is 35 years old. The way she looks has scared me into never sunbathing again. I do not want to look like a 35 year old who's really a 25 year old.
38There is nothing these two can do to redeem themselves. Ashley stay in London.. keep your sister there. Ashlee sold out to look like Jessica.. until Jessica's popularity tanked!! These two are a nasty pair their pimp preacher daddy dreamed up!!
39Jessica is now using her sister for publicity. On the links she gave an interview to a radio station and talked about how she cried. Why does she always have to make it about her? She needs to get her own life. Jess is getting jealous, IMO.
40I'm glad it went well for her, I like her.
41just like i've said before..she can sing and she IS good
good for you ash!
42She looks ok here.
43Holly thats true. If it's her sister's big night, and she's gotten great reviews, why is Jessica going around saying "I cried because she was so good!" Couldn't she just be quiet for 1 day even and let Ashlee have this?
44this must be truly shocking to pimp daddy; one of his girls was real and they were good. it surprises me, a lot.
45Good for her I'm glad she is getting good reviews. She is by far my favorite of the Simpson sisters. By the way what in the heck is Jess wearing is looks like so threw a tablecloth on over her jeans.
46Does anyone find it strange that the person who just got off stage appears to be wearing LESS makeup than the person who was in the audience? Jess must have on many layers of eyeshadow to achieve that level of sparkle-density.
47TOO WEIRD! Her "new nose" looks nice though. Jessica still has the talent. Jess probably paid the casting crew to pick her sister to play the part of Roxie Hart!
48i think she had a lot of potential, just that there were some hiccups here and there, and bad decisions as well.
