Jodie Turner-Smith & Ashlee Simpson Help Launch ‘Hollywood Virgin’ Book Benefiting LAFD Foundation!

Jodie Turner-Smith and Ashlee Simpson-Ross were all smiles as they stepped out to celebrate a special night in Hollywood!

The duo came together for the launch of “Hollywood Virgin”, a brand-new book by brand marketing strategist Jason Felts, featuring a foreword by his business partner, Sir Richard Branson. The event also supported the LAFD Foundation in the wake of recent devastating wildfires.

Also in attendance were Ashlee’s husband Evan Ross, Lance Bass, Lisa Vanderpump, and Brian Austin Green.

And, of course, there was a little Malcolm in the Middle nostalgia in the air. Justin Berfield, best known as Reese from the beloved sitcom, made a rare public appearance to support his longtime business partner. With rumors swirling about a potential reboot, Justin was asked if he’d return, to which he teased, “While it would be such fun to reunite with the cast, I’m not sure if I’ll be returning.”

Ashlee, a huge fan of the original show, wasn’t letting him off the hook so easily! She quickly chimed in, questioning why, adding, “Reese and Hal (Bryan Cranston) were the funniest characters from the original show.” Justin laughed and jokingly replied, “Tell Disney+ that,” before heading inside—where guests danced the night away in celebration!

“Hollywood Virgin” hits bookshelves on Tuesday (February 11) and is all about show business – the hustle, risk-taking, sudden success, insider realizations, self-discovery, breakdowns, and walking away before losing everything… alongside plenty of behind-the-screen shockers and celebrity stories.
