Well, put it this way - she's not made it big enough to push Kylie's off the front of the tabloids.ogryn said:*shakes head* tut tut :lol: :wave:
Her first single went top 10 I think, and her second one I'm going to guess it will go top 15.
I think they tunes are catchy enough. Nothing ground breaking there, but pleasent. I haven't been subjected to a media onslaught by her yet though.

Although, I doubt it will make a heap of difference in the long run, Ashlee Simpson MUST be notified about how much she is unliked.
Singing just ain't the profession for her.
My advice: Go to school. Get an education. Find something your good at.
OR...(as was already mentioned) there's always .

Look at all the worthwhile, truly terrible things in the world that people COULD be trying to stop and someone makes a petition about stopping Ashlee Simpson. I'm a fan of Ashlee's. I got her cd for Christmas and I've been playing it a lot more than my other cd's lately. But my being a fan of her and her music has nothing to do with my opinion on this petition. There's lots of musical artists that I wish would just go away (for example, almost every rapper, Christina Agulara (or however you spell that), Usher, Metallica...I'm sure there's others...) but I'm not going to make or sign a petition to make them "stop" what they're doing for a few reasons: A.) no one said I HAD to listen to them in the first place...if they come on the radio, I change stations, if they come on tv, I change the channel...it's as easy as pushing a button. and B.) I know that somewhere out there, they have fans who actually get something out of their music. I don't want to step on those fans' toes just like I wouldn't want anyone else to step on mine. What happened to America being the "land of the free" anyway? (and I know someone's going to try to be a smart a** and say something like "Ashlee's free to do whatever she wants, as long as it's not singing." So now you don't have to say it :animwink: )
As for what AI's Simon would think, I wondered the same thing (after all, I'd be the first to admit that Ashlee isn't the BEST singer in the world...but I still like her). But I heard that he actually supports Ashlee, but he can't stand Beyoncee Knowles(sp?)....go figure :veryconfu
ArchiDanDisney said:Theres a difference between Ashlee and the other acts you mentioned that being talent...and the fact the only reason she has a record out right now is because her sister is jessica simpson
Dizknee_Phreek said:Some people may view those "acts" as being talent...I view them as being crap music. It's all in perception. I consider The Beatles to be the best musical group in history, hands down. Other people can't stand listening to them. I personally don't understand that, but I respect it just as I can respect people finding those other "acts" as talent.
I actually like Ashlee's music a whole lot better than Jessica's. I think Jessica over sings everything. Maybe I just relate to Ashlee more because I'm also the younger, rebellous sister who's been stuck in my sister's shadow since the day I was born. Still, I think Ashlee's music is truer and more genuine. Maybe it's true that she only has a record because her sister is Jessica...that's no reason to hate her or her music.
Out of all the music to attack, though, why hasn't anyone gone after Bjork? I've tried listening to her to see what all the hype was, but my ears just couldn't take the torture.
I didn't mean that toward you, really...more as a general statement. Sorry.ArchiDanDisney said:I don't hate her because she got a record deal
I'm in no way trying to make this a personal attack on your opinion (just so you know :animwink: ) . I could care less if anyone hates her or doesn't hate her, so I completely respect that you don't like her. But I still think it's completely stupid and a waste of time to make a petition about such a thing. Honestly, if you (generally speaking) don't like a person's music, just don't listen to them. I've yet to see anyone being forced to listen to Ashlee sing, so I don't see why a petition is neccessary.I hate her because she is completely untalented, she has no musical ability, shes TONE deaf...she cannot sing, at least Jessica can sing

And some of us have been in situations where we couldn't get away from it. Way back when she was just starting out, she signed onto a gig here at SeaWorld, to perform at one of our "Club SeaWorld" events. Then she got popular. Once she got popular, she decided that she was too good for playing a free gig at SeaWorld, and tried to back out of it. SeaWorld said nope, she had signed a contract. So she came and did her gig at the park, and basically made our lives a living hell that day. What's worse, we had to be around, for crowd control, and had to hear it. No escape, and she was a little brat. So no, I don't have any respect for her.

The_CEO said:You guys have to realize that an online petition isn't going to accomplish anything. If you really are serious about this you all will not buy her cd. If she has poor record sales, why would a record company promote her? Thats the smart way to do it. Not a list of signatures with the people who hate her. Should we start a petition against our political party? I'm sure that will stop people's problems.
* I was just making a point, I didn't mean to make this political. *
Lets just let her make a fool out of herself.
