Orange Bowl halftime show

YOU SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!

nice:)

Yeah... that was bad... but... you got to give her credit... she got some guts... if i sucked this bad i would not have guts to sing anywhere besides shower... guts baby... pure guts...
 
I bet if any one of us had a father for a manager, who happened to be the guy who manages Jessica Simpson (she has talent.. not my style at all but she IS talented) and had the whole "both daughters or none" thing hanging over their head... we'd get a shot too, no?

Just my 3 cents (Cdn)

The Mountain Dew that is on my keyboard that came from my nose is just for you. :p

HA! I think I'll pass on the thirst quencher...yeah. :p

And Bob, no kidding, huh? It's like car accidents and the world's worst police videos...the toothless millions eat it up.

And to the quip about hiring a vocal coach...to think, maybe they did, and this performance is "marked progress".

shudder.
 
A few weeks ago, I went out to lunch with a co-worker who had her CD playing in the car (maybe bassturtle's wife's coworker?), and I ended up hearing a significant portion of the album, and I couldn't get over how bad it was. The lyrics (the few that I caught) were trite, and instrumentation was boring and unimaginative, and her vocals were just terrible. I understand that pop music is usually pretty simplistic and formulaic, but I've been out of the loop on just how BAD things were becoming. When did talentless people not only start getting work, but start ending up at the top of the social food chain?
 
Not sure, but it is awfully telling:

To show by example JUST how fickle, and ungenuine, and unloyal the mass buying public is,

Ashlee's album sold more than her actually talented sister Jessica's recent album did.

So not only are the mass public a bunch of followers who really cannot make up what is good music for them selves, they have MTV and Big Radio do it, but they also cannot discern from talented people over fashion trend.

Ashlee, you are an absurd little turd. Hey, that rhymes!

I havent heard simpsons record, but I heard lavgines latest one, and I had the exact same reaction to that album as you did with simpsons record, it was disgusting.

I also saw ashlee simpson in the half time show, it was awesomely funny. I have it downloaded. I also saw a post on her forum saying how she was good and shouldnt have got booed. That made me laughed too. They even said she was in tune! that made me laugh even harder :D
 
And seriously...the reality show? I saw one episode and one ad.

The one episode focussed mainly on her infatuation with this guy with hair like Limahl from Kagagoogo...who does really pussified acoustic drivel. While this thoroughly captivating footage unfolds, she's on his video shoot, conveniently, and everytime they had a scene together....all she wanted to do was give him kisses...and then it was valentines day and he didn't call.


boo hoo...damn fine episode ;) ...cannot wait for this series on DVD....


And the ad, which now makes a whole lot more funny than then, was a clip of her "rehearsing" for a debut show or something, and ends with her going "I can't sing because I can't hear my monitors".

Don'tcha mean guide track to lip sync to?

You know like when you're really cold and your scrotum retreats for warmer climate? Yeah, same effect.
 
I think this is the best description of Ashlee Chumpson that I've found yet. From a commentary on MSN:

Much of the blame for this fiasco falls upon ABC, which hired this female Gilbert Gottfried to headline the halftime show for college football’s ultimate game,
