I don't dislike Ashlee or anything (actually, I think she's pretty talented a singer), but I noticed that the person introducing her at the halftime show referred to her as "Superstar" Ashlee Simpson and I thought to myself that if she really WERE a superstar, he wouldn't have had to say that.

I couldn't imagine him having to say "Superstar Bruce Springsteen" or "Superstar Madonna"

ADPiZXalum 01-05-2005 10:38 AM

Did yall actually see the half time show? I thought she sucked! Maybe she needs to go back to lip syncing (sp????)!! :rolleyes:

Peaches-n-Cream 01-05-2005 02:03 PM

Poor girl. :(

I want to be a superstar! :p

I think she's easier to look at than her sister. I dug her CD, but I'll agree that she's not the greatest. That and her lead cowbell's a good friend of mine.

But I really did feel bad for her. It does suck to get booed. Too bad the network couldn't edit it out. My whole bar erupted in laughter last night.

NutBrnHair 01-05-2005 05:51 PM

I know I'm not the target market, but...
 
I would rather have heard O.J. Simpson sing at halftime!

GeoffZ 01-05-2005 06:18 PM

Her cd is ok, but she always sounds off when she sings live.

I’m so sick and tired of this crap entertainment invading sporting events; if I want to watch Teeny Boppers I’ll turn on MTV.

/sidenote: What the hell was she wearing and why was there a giant Anarchy Symbol on the bass drum? Joey Ramone is spinning in his grave.

Amen, most of the time these acts get booed anyways.

WCUgirl 01-05-2005 08:09 PM

I think she is, quite honestly, the worst singer I've ever heard (although you won't see me getting up and performing in public anytime soon. :) ). I agree w/ Kevlar - I don't know what in the heck she was wearing.

I will give her props for sticking it out and finishing her performance despite all the boos she was getting.

To be fair, someone yelled, "You suck!" really loudly after that country singer finished singing. My husband, a big country music fan, thought that was hilarious.

I felt bad for Kelly and the microphone problems she was having. Apparently they didn't get it resolved.

texas*princess 01-05-2005 08:25 PM

I heard the audio on a radio morning show early today. Good heavens! What was she trying to do?!

(I really wish I could have seen the video feed though.. that link isn't working to see it :p)

cash78mere 01-05-2005 08:33 PM

i can't download the video either! anyone know of any other links?

She got booed!

DSDPrincess 01-05-2005 09:16 PM

I watched her show on MTV and she could never get in tune.

She needs to just stop already, she is making herself look really bad. If you can't sing, you can't sing. I think she should just stick to acting.

Senusret I 01-05-2005 09:25 PM

Dang, somebody really said "You suuuuuuck!"

carol9a 01-06-2005 05:38 AM

I'm disappointed that she didnt do her hoe-down.

AOIIsilver 01-06-2005 10:13 AM

Mr. Silver and I could not figure out if the crowd was really booing. That is wild!
We thought something was wrong with the levels of the microphones. It sounded like an echo...maybe a back-up singer with a microphone set too loudly???

This brings up a very interesting question:

DOESN'T SHE FUCKING GET IT BY NOW?

ShaedyKD 01-06-2005 07:04 PM

Has anyone seen the MAD TV episode where a girl playing Ashlee is singing the song "Pieces of Me" for a bunch of kids at a hospital? After she sings the song, one little kid goes, "Did you ever think about changing the name to Pieces of Shi---", and he gets cut off.
I wonder if on Season 2 of the Ashlee show they will show her horrible performances at SNL, the non-Dick Clark New Year's Rockin Eve show, and the halftime show, and maybe some sort of breakdown when she realizes that, shockingly, SHE CAN'T SING.

Yes, I saw that, and thought it was pretty funny.

Gosh, after SNL, the Billboard Music Awards (where she was booed while accepting an award), and now this... you'd think she'd get it!!

What happened on the Rockin Eve show? (my guess is she sucked yet again and someone booed or yelled "you suck!" :p)

lifesaver 01-07-2005 04:14 AM

THe tease for the NBC affilliate 6pm newscast was "Strike 2 for Aslee Simpson." Bwahhahahh.

Xylochick216 01-07-2005 04:17 AM

Yahoo said that the SNL thing will be part of her show. Hopefully the show will end with her retiring :) I just think she has no talent. Sure, it takes balls to get up in front of that many people when you have no talent. But it's also rude to subject people to it ;)

UKDaisy 01-10-2005 02:20 AM

I really feel bad for her. This was mainly bad booking by her management * cough cough her father*. I mean a bunch of normal college students and 40 year old alumni dont' always want to see a pop singer.

But I really dont' think any artist/performer/actor/singer/etc deserves to booed unless they show up to drunk to sing or leave half way through the show b/c they are tired or something. I mean, in my nice lil' boxed-in world.... I don't think thats nice.

Sid Vicious and Joey Ramone are rolling in their graves.

Kevin 01-10-2005 09:40 AM

The amazing thing is that throughout all of this, people still buy her records.

Yes they are. :(

DIVA1177 01-10-2005 12:14 PM

I don't know how many folks saw it in October but I was at the Radio Music Awards. My husband and I were privy to her screaming first hand. It was maybe a week or two after the SNL debacle and she tried to make a joke out of it before proceeding to try to blow EVERYBODY in the damn arena's eardrums out. It was horrible. They went to commercial as they were finishing. Nobody stood up. Nobody clapped. One guy in the balcony yelled "Get your a**off the stage!!!". It was bad. :(

I clicked through and read that petition.

One of the ads on the page was for Ashlee Simpson tickets...

DeltaSigStan 01-10-2005 01:06 PM

Sorry to burst your bubble people, but Ashley isn't going ANYWHERE...

She has just ENOUGH teeny bopper fans to fill her and her family's giant ego. Just because 90% of America hates her, the 10% that do will still buy her music and watch her crappy ass show...as long as that happens, she has a reason to keep making the shit that she does...

I want my 1999, I-Say-I'm-Innocent-But-I'm-A-Skank-Waiting-To-Happen, pre-Madonna kiss, pre-marriage, pre-trash, pre-Justin Britney Spears back!

Sorry but that Britney is about as good a singer as Ashlee...MUCH better dancer though.

True, but she's much better looking than Assley....

PureGoldF2K1 01-11-2005 01:10 AM

And Britney is SUCH a great performer (not vocally obviously, even though shes good enough) but her stage presence is amazing. Ashlee comes no where near Britney in that department

UKDaisy 01-11-2005 09:08 AM

I'm not going to lie.... I did buy her album when it came out. Mainly b/c it was 8.88 at wal-mart. The thing is ....I can actually sing better in tune and hit the notes. So the cd makes me feel better about my sad singing ability. lol

I think I Justfeel bad for Ashlee b/c she's Jessica's sister. ANd it is sooo obvious that her parents adore Jessica, and I mean they left Ashlee practically to pursue Jessica''s career. I mean in articles Joe Simpson is always saying something negative about Ashlee. Lik "The Difference in my two daughters is that Ashlee has to try to be sexy. Jessica just is sexy, look at her double d's. You can't not try with those."

Okay, so besides never wanting your dad to say that.....it still sucks. And he does it all the time. So I think I Just feel bad.

Rather than follow her older sister's boilerplate pretty blonde route, Ashlee dyed her hair and sells herself as a raven-haired fist-pumping rebel for those who find Avril Lavigne too musically challenging.
:D :D :D
