My life came to a halt last month when it was said Heather Locklear was no longer in negotiations to join the new version of Melrose Place.  They may as well call it Shits Place because without her or Sydney Andrews, this remake is a bunch of bull shit plus the fact that God awful Ashlee Simpson is going to be on it.

Well money talks–especially when you’re reprising Amanda Woodward.  Obviously the reason behind her not joining the cast was because of money…it wasn’t confirmed, but we’re not a bunch of idiots, are we? Reports are now surfacing saying that Heather was in fact asking for too much money.  An insider revealed:

“In these tough economic times, the network simply wouldn’t - or couldn’t - pay Heather the kind of money she thought she deserved. She wanted at least $100k per episode, which is what she could have commanded in pre-recession days, and the CW would only pay half that…or less.”

Really? Can someone please hand me fucking $50k my way? They could hire my ass for $20 an episode…I’m fucking AVAILABLE.  Also, Heather wasn’t too happy that producers wanted to concentrate more on the new cast and less on her.  Uh duh…it’s a remake for a reason.  Although I’d much rather watch shit like 90210 set its greatness around Brenda Walsh, but sometimes we don’t get what we ask for.

The source adds:

“Heather probably wouldn’t even have been a regular character on the new Melrose Place, but a recurring star. She was mainly going to be used to lure old fans to the new show. But Heather was looking for a meatier role and much more money.”

So basically The CW is fucked if they don’t bring her back on because I doubt some bitch in their now 40s is going to want to turn on that channel and watch fucking ASSlee Simpsucks prancing around in lingerie and giggling like a fucking goon.
