I didn't read the first part of this thread because I never heard of Ashlee
Simpson.

Is she the one who sang the national anthem at the Orange Bowl? That was the
worst I have ever heard.

BTW, why isn't the Orange Bowl football game played IN the Orange Bowl?

Makes you want to go hmmm.

She's ALMOST as bad as Madonna trying to hatchet "Imagine" tonite.

E-fricking-GADS!

I must say the Orange Bowl was classic, though.

We went to SFNE with a friend from out of town back in July, not knowing
that she was in the park that day for a radio station concert. Snapped this
of her sitting in the brake run on B:TDK, on the train that we were getting
on as she and her group got off... Later saw the group getting fake tattoos
nearby

oh come on, while Ashlee Simpson may be one of the tragedies of modern music,
she at least is BRILLIANT compared to that screaching, bleached blonde sister
of hers.

You must not have hear her abominize the track she sang last night, then.

I've never been a fan of Madonna's, outside of her business sense (which
you must be advocating AS her brilliance), and the stories I've heard
about her from certain folks who used to own and run Power Station. And
I certainly have never been under the impression that she had a decent
voice. I respect what she did. She tore it up and made it; I respect
that, but it doesn't green light a shitty voice.

If it weren't for the cause she was supporting with her rendition of a
dying mud flap, the media would headline Simpson to move over and share
the spotblight.

Dave, I realize I should have specified that the "bleached blonde sister" I was
referring to was Jessica, not Madonna, but I was afraid to actually type out
the name Je----- Sim---- lest either my fingers fell off or my keyboard
exploded in protest.

The only Simpsons I think should be recording music these days are Homer and
Bart.

Meanwhile, can we make Britney vanish also?

Or better yet, is there a petition to stop ALL pop "music"?

Well, no. That would imply "entertainment," and there is nothing of the
sort with this twit!

Imagine, if you will, one of the spice girls, only with zero talent, a big
ugly nose, and who's vocals are akin to running your nails down a
chalkboard. That's Ashlee Simpson!

I thought watching her dance around like an idiot on SNL was very

Well, everyone at that game anyway. However, music and capitalism go
hand in hand today and her album "Autobiography" sold 2.42 million
copies worldwide in 2004, making it the 31st bestselling album. With
numbers like that, I doubt her absence will be long. From what I hear,
her show gets decent ratings too.

Unfortunately, the untalented singers of America keep finding work.
Anyone remember Roseanne Barr/Arnold/Whatever's performance of "The
Star Spangled Banner" a number of years back? It caused protests!

True, but Roseanne isn't a singer and no one expected her to sing
well. It was what she did [i.e. grabbing her crotch] morso than her
awful vocals that caused the uproar

Oh my god. I got a mental image for 12 seconds of Roseanne from the TV
sitcom, grabbing herself and screaming "DARLENE."

Then I re-read what you were talking about.

Considering all that she's gone through, I wouldn't think she would
even *want* to be in the public eye anymore. People have made it
painfully clear that they don't like/want her (see- Orange Bowl), but
Ashlee's management keeps pushing her on everyone.

She was precisely sculpted to be this angry rebel rocker who they
thought would appeal to 14 year old girls, and she did! Problem is,
most of the "buying public" is not made up of 14 year old girls. Now,
her producers and managers don't want to accept defeat - they spent
too much time and money on Ashlee.

So, anyway, while you're at it, can somebody stop Jessica Simpson too?
I find her more irritating than Ashlee. Why is this family being
pushed on us to outrageously? Not only do the sisters get record
contracts, they both get TV shows? And, for Jessica, it's not just
ONE show, she has like two or three! You can't turn on TV without
seeing the Simpson sisters in your face. It's like, GET THE FUCK AWAY
FROM ME ALREADY! ACK.
