The Melrose Place star tells one about bastard children, then talks about the fanfare of being on TV while still in high school

An old married couple had four boys. The older three had red hair and light skin, the youngest had black hair and dark eyes. On his deathbed, the father turned to his wife and said, “Honey, be honest with me. Is our youngest son my child?” The wife replied, “I swear on everything holy, he is your son.” Then he passed away. The wife then said, “Thank God he didn’t ask about the other three.”

About the Jokester: Not long ago, 24-year-old Jessica Lucas was just your average Canadian high school student… playing your average Canadian high school student on the hit (Canadian) drama Edgemont. Despite the show’s popularity among her classmates, Lucas claims she managed to have a relatively normal high school experience: “I kind of avoided telling people at school when I was on TV, and they didn’t really make too much fanfare about it.” After graduating from high school, Lucas headed to Hollywood. She appeared in last year’s monster flick Cloverfield and currently costars on Melrose Place as a schoolteacher living in television’s most infamous apartment complex. We hope she’ll forgive us for making fanfare about it  .

Melrose Cast In Entertainment Weekly

Melrose Place made its long-awaited comeback this week, and it proved to be just as steamy as the original. Not that much of the cast remembers the original.

“For the most part, this cast has no connection to the other one,” Laura Leighton, who’s reprising her role as the scandalous Sydney Andrews, admits in the fall TV preview issue of Entertainment Weekly. “They never miss any opportunity to tell me that they weren’t even old enough to watch the original show. Katie [Cassidy, sitting above] turned to me the other day and said, ‘So were you, like, on the old one?’ I have to keep my sense of humor intact because it’s been a series of humiliations, really.”

Ashlee Simpson-Wentz, who turns 25 in October, admits she was too young to catch it the first time around, too. “I never really watched shows like this until I was pregnant,” says the singer-actress. “But they’re so much fun — they’re part of American culture.”
