Ashlee Simpson booed

[Kontiki]

If Ashlee and Jessica had another sister, do you think their dad would turn her into a rapper or a prostitute?

Oh come on... booing her off stage is what she deserved. Her face, like "Are they really booing me, who do they think they are" was priceless. I love seeing talentless hacks who got to the top on the strength of their name shot down .

Booing is the least of what she deserved.

Oh, and I hope it does break her career.

Why? What has she ever done to you?

She deserves even less. She deserves a pooshower and the treatment of an trompty tower's moonchy mush.

Do you want to know something eerie? I know you've been smoking. Don't deny, I know it. But it's ok... if you were sober, you would know pooshower is disgusting. It's not fun, it's disgusting. Just like she is. they're both disgusting, and they deserve each other.

I had to listen to her horrible voice. Whatever torture we can think of is not enough .

I think it's becoming clear that JCC actually likes her music.

[Imran Siddiqui]

[Jaguar]

Sure, why not.

/me throws another rock.

That Ashlee Simpson has one of the best selling female albums is a horrid indictment on the modern Music and enterntainment industry- that a person of small talent, through effective marketing, can become a superstar, while individuals of real talent are shunted to niche markets is pretty sad.

The real genuises here are the PR and marketing men.

No- there was a time before PR, for one, but two, when there were a lot of small music concerns people had to live off the quality of their product, to stand out and be profitble- now, this does not reduce the chance of poor songs being sung by talented people, but it did reduce the possibility of trully bad performers lasting at all, and certainly of selling well, given the independence of radio companies and the fact they would actually look for talented people, so that they got more airtime and where themselves profitable.

Today we live in a world in whcih a few large companies control the production of music, while another small set controls distribution- once the production companies have decided to annoit one hack as a star, they can do it, have the budgets to push it, and don;t have to worry about survival of the latest flavor of the month collpases. Ditto for the large radio concerns.

In fact, the Ashlee Simpsons of the world are a Godsend- you pump them up for their first album, for which you pay them very little as compared to established stars, then you push the album to milk it for all its worth, then if the public does not want a second, well, who cares, there is a million wanna be's willing to be the next Ashlee Simpson.
