LM: What are your takes on lip-synching?

AS: I'm totally against it and offended by it. I'm going out to let my real talent show, not to just stand there and dance around. Personally, I'd never lip-synch. It's just not me.

What a lying bitch. Whats the point of a live performance if you are going to synch your own song? Thats funny though Cher, I bet she feels like an ass right about now.

CRAIG

Wow! That's pretty sad. Why would you just walk off the stage....wouldn't you just start singing the song your band played? I like her music, but that is really shitty of her.

It wasn't because "they played" the wrong song. It was because the tape that she was going to start lip synching to started too soon and she got caught in the act so she started dancing like a monkey.

It's too hilarious because her guitar players were laughing while she was walking off stage but so was she feeling quite... stupid (I would think).

Jana · 10-24-2004

I know, I'm just saying the excuse she used (her band started playing the wrong song) was ridiculous.

i remember this happening another time when i was younger... oh yeah Milli Vanilli. wow i know most of these 16 and 17 year old girls are totally faking this singing, glad to see one of them got caught. Next move for ashlee, PORNO BABY, where faking is encouraged.

IndiEP · 10-24-2004

I saw that happen last night and I couldn't stop laughing! First they played the radio hit, don't know what its called and though, wow, she's not that bad. Then when they cam out for the second song everything just seemed weird. The band kinda starts playing and out of nowhere her vocals come in from the song they had already played.

She could be a complete fake, or not. A lot of performers lip-sync to their own vox track if their having an off night, I know Brittney has done it. But then again these are the same performers that when recording don't sing the song the whole way through, they either do it word by word or sentence by sentence, then bring on the auto-tune!

TalonFiero · 10-24-2004

Saw the video earlier today of the SNL bit. Funny as shit, and I have to agree she was dancing around like an idiot.

Did anyone else read "Ashlee Simpson .. Exposed!, f'n hilarious caught *nippleslip*"?

Wow, I need to spend less time on the internet.

AJ · 10-24-2004

I'd still hit it.

Cuz Britney's such a fine example for a "good singer".

That's good stuff. The fact that nutty made it his sig adds to the hilarity.

I'm pretty sure Brittney lip syncs the majority of her live gigs (everyone I've seen on TV anyway). You can not dance around like a Laker cheerleader and sing perfectly at the same time.

Also as another FYI, Shania Twain lip synced her Super Bowl performance.

All this manufactured music is ridiculous. I can't wait until the whole music industry is turned on it's head.

**Goat Blower** · 10-25-2004

Britney absolutely lipsync's most of the time. Everytime I've seen any performance by her, it's very obvious when they show her close-up that she's not singing.

And for Ashlee (I'm nothing without my sister's fame) Simpson, what did you really expect? For the 5 minutes I wasted one day watching her show and her recording her CD, she's absolutely horrible. She can't sing worth a damn. All I know is that her vocals are probably completely gone through with ProTools to clean up the fact that she can't sing. "My band started playing the wrong song." Yeah, mistakes can happen, so you jump in and sing, big deal. Guess she didn't have the confidence to do that. Hmmmmm.

1slowdsm · 10-25-2004

...That was really funny. I heard the first song, then watched the show a little and went on the net and then I heard the same song again. I was like "What, twice...isnt that dumb?" Then I found out listening on KDWB this morning and now I just saw the video. First she screws up, then dances really bad and right after that she blames it on her band...haha. I dont think she can sing either, I wouldnt download them or listen to them regularly. I used to think she was hot, but that was back then when she wasnt a singer. She's going to be like Lindsay Lohan pretty soon...a party girl who drinks all the time.

**JET** · 10-25-2004

I never have liked her and now this just adds to it. She is just riding on the coat tails of her sister. Some show had one of her early songs on it and it sounded like crap. I am glad that she got what she deserved!

1slowdsm · 10-25-2004

I think that was the end of her singing career. Oh well...not big lost. It still funny thinking about how she was dancing. I dont/cant dance for crap either, but I wouldnt do that kind of stuff...especially on TV.

The music industry is/and has been on a downword spiral for a while now. Labels are singing less bands and pushing their power artists. there income also helps cover the losses on other bands that can't carry their weight. And you definetly know things are bad when labels start sueing 10 year old kids. But you can't just blame the "industry", if its complete crap why is it selling?

Oh, and the offical statement released for the SNL slip up was, "computer error, there was supposed to be a drum loop playing instead..."
