    Default What part of "Live" does Ashlee Simpson not understand?

    As in Saturday Night Live. Just when I thought their musical guests can't get any worse... Ashlee Simpson slips under the bottom.

    I mean, for the most part, the bands sound like SHIT on SNL. They must go out of their way to randomly set the mixer board to sound like that.

    THEN we got this little joo joo bean who merely needs to spend three minutes - THREE MINUTES - actually doing something SHE SUPPOSSEDLY IS AN EXPERT IN.

    This is one reason I don't go to pop concerts anymore - as for the mere fact that they sing garbage anyhow - but I refuse to spend thirty to sixty bucks to listen to a friggin CD. I tell ya, they outta just cut their hair into a mullet and air band their way through the concert.

    No shit, what exactly happened last night? We were watching and didn't get it? She just walked off the stage because her voice track began to play before the band did? I would have just played it like a "remix", told them to turn off the voice track, and FUCKING SANG!!!

    I kinda wonder if it wasn't a techie who believed that Saturday Night LIVE should be LIVE and actually made the "mistake" to point out - they aint LIVE no more!

    I'll take my tin foil hat off now.

    But SNL has just SUCKED for five YEARS now. I don't know how that mess stays on the air.

    When it came out with Bill Murray and crew - it was funny. Now it is a left wing campaign machine with politically oriented skits.

    What happened to Mr. Bill? What happened to Gumby?

    heheheheh I love it. But you have to actually look back and think......who was the last band on SNL you actually saw sing LIVE. Get the new tennie bobper wanna be singer and put them on stage TO LIP SINC. hehehehheeh I love it.

    Ole Manili Vanili would be a hit now.......because that is all how people sing now.
    I've heard that a good signiture sets you apart from everyone.
    Well......is this good enough???

    Gah.. I'm a day behind myself, so I thought today was Saturday.. LOL

    Anyhoo.. I'm VERY glad I missed it. It wasn't bad enough that we have deal with her big sister Jessica, now we have to deal with her as well.. BLAH!

    It doesn't surprise me that she wasn't singing live. Most of these little teeny-boppers lip-sync even at their own concerts. They're just selling their "cute wittle faces", not their voices.

    Thank you deogol. This BS in the music business is going to have to stop. Recently, a Jessica Simpson video was playing on the bar TV and I had to explain to a dancer why Jessica Simpson is famous...???? I know!!!!! This is record company greed...they saw that Jessica's little sister was cute enough to slap on stage, talent or no...
    Take comfort in the fact that the last time this was going on, grunge rock came out and knocked musical culture on its ass. Several albums from that scene (from Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Soundgarden, and Alice in Chains) are arguably eternal classics.

    Rhia, she is just proving she dances as well as she sings. They call what she was doing lip-footing! She still had her foot in her mouth at the end of the show when she tried to blaim the band.

    ANd now.....enter the SPIN ZONE

    From YAhoo Launch and A.P Newswire:
    Singer Ashlee Simpson 's "extra help" may have been exposed when a "Saturday Night Live" audience heard her voice — singing the wrong song — while she held a microphone at her waist.

    Her record company blamed a computer glitch and she blamed her band for Sunday morning's incident, which cut off her planned performance of the song "Autobiography" on the network comedy show.

    Simpson had performed her hit single "Pieces of Me" without incident earlier in the show. When she came back a second time, her band started playing and the first lines of her singing "Pieces of Me" could be heard again.

    She looked momentarily confused as the band plowed ahead with the song and the vocal was quickly silenced.

    Simpson made some exaggerated hopping dance moves, then walked off the stage 35 seconds into the performance. NBC quickly cut to a commercial.

    "What can I say?" guest host Jude Law said with Simpson standing next to him at the end of the show. "Live TV."

    "Exactly," Simpson said. "I feel so bad. My band started playing the wrong song. I didn't know what to do so I thought I'd do a hoe-down."

    Her record company, Geffen Records, said there was a computer glitch. Instead of some pretaped electronic percussion, the recording of "Pieces of Me" started mistakenly performing, the record company said in a statement.

    But it sounded suspiciously like a guide vocal that's a common — although almost always unspoken — concert aid. Either the singer "lip synchs" by mouthing words to a backing tape or has a live microphone and sings along to the tape, making the voice sound more powerful than it is.

    Such vocal tricks have been used before on the show, making "Saturday Night Live" not entirely live, said a show insider who spoke on condition of anonymity.

    A Geffen spokeswoman did not immediately return a call for comment.

    Simpson's walk-off joins the lore of other unexpected music moments on "SNL": Elvis Costello stopping and changing songs on live TV, and Sinead O'Connor tearing up a picture of the pope.

    My boyfriend had sent me the link from college humor. I almost shat in my pants from laughing so hard. I almost wish that I had watched SNL last night just for that.

    Thanks to companies like Sony, BMG music will never be the same. As long as you only have one or two music companies in the world or as long as you only have television owned by Viacom, it's going to be crap. Viacom owns practically everything on tv, and Sony BMG makes all the so called music. It's pretty much McDonalds of entertainment. Not enough half as many people are buying music anymore and the companies blame music "piracy" for that, but that is bull. The real reason is that they are producing crap aimed at adolescents and that's why no one buys their crap. (Yes, MTV's target audience are 5-14 years olds) 25 year old people are not going to buy Jojo, Ashlee Simpson, and Avril Laveigne.

    Her "music" is crap one way or the other, for me, so I could care less if she lip syncs or not....but I loved the screw up.

    Why does this surprise anyone? It's not like pop stars can actually perform.

    I actually feel bad for the girl; she has been told she has talent despite the obvious lack thereof, and was made to look like a bufoon as a result.

    So that explains what happened last night...she pulled a Millie Vanillie. That's what I figured , but they cut to commercial so quick. No stage presence whatsoever. She coulda at least played it off, running off the stage just made it obvious. Anyone can get a record deal nowadays, they're all "studio singers". Where's my record deal? I can lip sync with the best of em. Also, speaking of anyone getting a record deal...has anyone seen Brooke Hogan's music video? Hulk Hogans daughter...what is this world coming too?

    The on-stage lip synching thing is not new when it comes to television. All those goofy 80's shows did it all the time. When you're lip-synching to your own voice, you can get away with it. I can't personally stand either one of them, and have no respect for any performer who cannot be involved in the creation of the music itself.

    Lip-synch is a norm in the TV business. It's been going on since the 60's Look at all the TV shows with bands from the 60's Just about all of them lip-synch. Now I do agree I can't stand Pop music right now. If you really don't like it don't listen to it and try and convince the kids not to. This I highly doubt anyone will be able to do thats why its called pop(popular) music. Even bands we all know can sing lip-synch. They do it for thier music videos
