    xD That's so awesome. I wish record stores near me did that.

    OMG...I found the video online...

    That has to be the highlight of humor in 2004. I especially loved how the band members looked at each other and grinned.

    You know, someone really needs to stick an "OWNED!" image in there somewhere.
    I like Kung-Fu.

    In all honesty, I could not only care less about Ashlee Simpson, but I could also care less about pop music in general. I'd like to know what the recording industry has been smoking. Here's all this cheesy pop, and out of all of these cheesy pop musicians, you've got one who's not at all talented, but they say, "well, she's related to Jessica Simpson, so why not hook the audience onto her music, too?" And while they clearly show bias towards pop and rap, the RIAA treats one genre of music I really enjoy like <img src=http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif><img src=http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif><img src=http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif><img src=http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif>; that being Metal. Is this cool? No! Not at all! I feel that Ashlee Simpson rightfully deserved to be booed, because she sucks, and yet, she's still reaping the benefits of the recording industry.

    But you see, thats the thing - it's what the people are buying, it's where the cash is at, and that's all that matters to them. Reguardless of how much you may think it sucks, to others, I guess it doesn't. Therefore, they aren't "smoking" anything...they're interested in making money, and that's what they're doing...it's intellegent to do what you're going to make the most money with in the business world, and they're doing it.

    Sad fact? Perhaps.

    Seems like some people should stick to acting.
    It seems like some people should stick to staying out of the spotlight and just be happy that your sister is mildly talented and making money.

    Well, to be honest, I don't like the way she sings either. She'd probably be better off letting her sister make all the cash. That I bet, was embarrassing.

    The awesomness of yesterday's football game (National champs, whoo!!) was marred only by that atrocious half-time show. Seriously, on top of the bad singing, Simpson was gyrating like some diseased animal. I don't like her much. =/

    Ashlee Simpson is not the only person to use backing tracks and such during "live" performances. I also find the comparison to Milli Vinili (or however it's spelled) to be very annoying. Milli Vinili didn't even record the songs that they lip synched to. They tried to pass it off as though they were. Ashlee, on the other hand, did sing the studio version that she was lip synching to.

    That being said, I don't enjoy her music. She probably can't sing live to save her life. She should probably quit while she's ahead.

    Yeah, lots of singers do it. She got caught, so now it's time to mock.

    I think it sucks that she's a pretty solid failure. Poor girl just wanted to live a dream, but she forgot that you have to not suck at least a little bit.

    I dont feel sorry for anyone who piggy-back's another's fame. She had no talent on her own, she's famous because her sister is famous. Just like Jack and Kelley Osbourne, famous because of their father. Or Hailey Duff, famous because of her sister.

    While I may not like all the people piggy-backed, they at least worked hard to get to the top. Their families did not, so I have no sympathy for them.

    Ashlee probably could have saved face by owning up rather than blaming her band.

    I thought she blamed it on heartburn.

    She blamed the mistake on SNL on her band. She giggled and said "Oh, my band started playing the wrong song." she later said that she was lip synching because her voice was tired, and then changed it to acid reflux later.

    I know plenty of singers that tour for months on end and sing/scream everynight without fail. She has no excuse.
