This Is Why She Normally Lipsynchs

Filed under: Ashlee Simpson

Ashlee Simpson performed her new single, Little Miss Obsessive, on the Today show yesterday.

It was 100% live.

And it was 110% mess!

Thank God for those backup singers!

I don't think she sounds that bad. Sure some of the lower parts are a little inaudible but she really doesn't sound like crap or anything.

bad beginning but other than that she sounds good…
not sure bout the song…but i love her voice…..she hasnt got a bland pop voice like some other singers….

dont see what the problem is…..prob just slating her for the sake of itt…..

try some constructive criticism rather than just plain criticism
jessss says – reply to this

34

what the hell why is she allwoed to do this to the public!
pissed says – reply to this

35

and yet america is stupid enough to make this talentless loser a millionare. baffling.
justin says – reply to this

36

I thought she sounded wonderful. She has sounded better before. On tour she is great. This is her third time performing that single live, so she's gotta get used to things. People don't give her enough credit as a singer/songwriter.
S says – reply to this

37

Perhaps she was experiencing morning sickness?
D says – reply to this

38

Are you serious? She sounds NOTHING like the songs on her album. She's horrible. I hate people who think they deserve fame because their sibling has it.

Nastyness.
Heather says – reply to this

39

its ridiculous that someone with NO talent can get a record deal just cause she's related to someone famous. FUCK NEPOTISM!

WHAT WAS THAT………….no, like really what was that? OMFG!
ruby says – reply to this

41

THIS IS JUST PAINFUL TO LISTEN TO. I COULDN'T GET THROUGH IT. WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS FAMILY? THEY WERE SO SWEET AND HAD SOME TALENT. NOW BETWEEN JESSICA'S FISH-LIKE EXPRESSIONS WHEN SHE SINGS, ASH'S LACK OF VOCAL TRAINING AT ALL, AND THE MONEY HORE DAD…THEY ARE SO PATHETIC…IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE HE WAS A BAPTIST MINISTER..WHAT THE HELL!!!!!!! PRAY THAT YOUR FAMILY FINDS SOME DIGNITY.

moe says – reply to this

45

wow. fierce tranny mess. and not in a good way. I couldn't stop looking at those ugly loud pants either. And the back up singer on the left -wasn't she from mtb a loong time ago w/ the girls. I forgot her name. wow.

And what did she do to make her stylist so angry?
sarah says – reply to this

46

why is she even famous.. that was very bland, she has no tone
hussey says – reply to this

47

i don't really care for ashlee simpson and her music but i don't think this sounds as awful as a lot of other girls out there who think they can sing…….or as bad as her girly fiancee
Lindy says – reply to this

48

I think she sounds pretty good, actually. I like the song–my only problem is that she looks like she's not having a lot of fun up there. But the singing sounded good to me.
Dave says – reply to this

my ears…MY EARS…AHHHHHH!!!
mikke says – reply to this

im not a fan of ashley simpson, but it wasnt THAT bad, give the kid a break
J says – reply to this

51

i thought it was really good….i'd like to hear u sing live perez
pkwykid says – reply to this

52

As a "singer" - she should stick to acting. What a mess, and embarrassment to a music industry already on it's ass.

Joe - find the kid another line of work.
Vshizzle says – reply to this

53

horrible…no talent…why is this person even blessed with fame and a contract…hideous…the only thing going for her is her looks…geez how lame.
ali says – reply to this

54

i dont think it was that bad…
Dana says – reply to this

55

It's not really that bad.
SheCarriesAtune says – reply to this

56

I think she's a fine singer. I don't think she portrays herself as the next Barbara Streisand or anything, so I think we should cut her some slack. She carries a tune.
slang says – reply to this

57

I didn't think it was that bad at all!
ann says – reply to this

i saw you at LAX on friday but i was too nervous to say hi!! so hi!!

the beginning sucked but it wasn't too bad overall…
atitagain says – reply to this

60

where is that little happy dance she does when things go wrong……..you know…like the one on SNL
Jennnnnn says – reply to this

61

it wasn't horrible. She was a little off a few times, but for a professional it should be better. It was ok. I like th esong
Jackie says – reply to this

62

…….she can't even hit 1/2 the damn notes! If you don't have a strong low register, STAY OUT OF IT!!! she ended up sounding like a bad trannie.
asslee, not that bad says – reply to this

63

come on perez…she has her own style, and it wasn't THAT bad….
Randi says – reply to this

64

Wow that's not good at all. let's chalk it up to "morning sickness"
Devon says – reply to this

I love you Ashley!!

66

Look at those spandex… Who is she, BeetleJuice?
Angel says – reply to this

67

It wasn't THAT bad, I expected way worse…. and I LOVED HER PANTS they were hot, the performance could use some work.

68

i hope she was sick. that was a terrible performance.

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!! HORRIBLE!
SkaryMoviez says – reply to this

She sucks. Someone should tie her to a tree and shoot firecrackers at her
linds says – reply to this

72

hate her voice,
but ill admit her hair looks good
Dave says – reply to this

73

I am not Simpson fan but it was not that bad. Now her energy and the song is what sucked ass.
KEEF says – reply to this

74

who the hell is buying this crap ? STOP IT ! there has to be some better talent out there. there has to be………
gi says – reply to this

75

ashley you obviously have a tremendous fear of live performances, you get way too nervous, and it shows in your face and in your eyes… the whole performance is a giant anxiety attack… i think you have been in denial a long time, thinking it will just go away because offstage you sing great, you have great 'performances' but it doesn't and it makes you look like shit… stop with the denial, see a pysch, and do what it takes to ease the live anxiety or get the hell out of the pop world and let someone else take over
Sasha says – reply to this

76

I never understood why she is a "star"…I don't see any talent within.
A says – reply to this

77

It wasn't that bad. Better than Madonna live.
ashley says – reply to this

78

wow. those pants are hideous.
Sandi says – reply to this

79

I didn't think she was that bad either. It's tough when people try to go below their normal range - their voices get weak. Sounds like she is trying to imitate Amy Winehouse.
wow says – reply to this

80

wow… she is horrible…
Perez's Gay Lover says – reply to this

81

I heard singing that bad will cause an unborn child to die! Now we know what happened in her supposed pregnancy…she lost it!
Lauren (A) says – reply to this

82

It just sounds like her mic wasn't loud enough.
heidi says – reply to this

83

While it was a little rough at some parts, I don't think it was all that bad
amy says – reply to this

84

that sucked monkey balls
stinger says – reply to this

85

I can't understand a damn word she says! She just mumbled through the whole song. and the outfit is terrible. get a new stylist hun.
munch says – reply to this

86

The back up singer's face 38 secs in is PRICELESS!!!!!! Hahahahaha
Lauren says – reply to this

87

I thought it'd be worse. I think she's every bit as good as all the other "talent" out there, and that song is my brand new very guilty pleasure
alex says – reply to this

88

Wow… Never has it been more apparent that she wouldn't be on the map, were it not for her devisive, fame-lusting father.
wrong again! says – reply to this

89

It wasn't terrible. The sound system sucked…she can sing.
AMANDAAAAAAAAAAA says – reply to this

90

HORRIBLE.
JUST FUCKIN HORRIBLE SHE IS THE WORST HOW DID SHE GET THAT SEXY BITCH PETE?
Lauren (A) says – reply to this

91

Also it sounds like her drummer needs to lay the hell off of those cymbals.
TehDevil says – reply to this

92

I don't really think she's as bad as fat boy thinks she is. Although I could give her a few words of advice, first….whoever was running sound? HAVE THEM FUCKING FIRED!!! Also, FIRE YOUR BACKING BAND!! They were, how shall we say? LESS THAN COMPETENT!!! It's god damn pop music you fucking tards!! It's 4 fucking chords!!!! And yet they still came across as a garage band!
Astrantia says – reply to this

93

It's not that bad! I think she was extremely nervous, you can see her hands shaking. Give her some more time performing live and she'll become more confident.
o-m-g says – reply to this

94

i can't hear her actual voice. all i hear are the instruments and the background singers. she sucks ass.
at it again says – reply to this

95

She is totally wanting to scream from embarrassment cause she knows that sucked. she even smirks while she sings cause she KNOWS GIRLFRIEND cannot sing, hold a tune, stay in key. Look at her while Matt Lauers comes on stage. She wants to throw up from how crappy that was. and the topper, was her "YAY 4thof july, can't wait" I bet.
Nadia says – reply to this

96

Well, good think she had the plastic surgery. Otherwise she'd be a fugly bad singer.
Brett says – reply to this

97

Hey Perez, stick to bashing people's fashion and outing gays. You know nothing about singing or music obviously. The song was horrible! I agree. But She was on pitch the whole song.

Get your shit right dumbass.
Allison says – reply to this

98

Ashley Simpson,

Please do yourself and the world a favor….PLEASE retire from the biz and keep your mouth shut!
Kelly says – reply to this

99

hmm…now it wasn't THAT bad, but come on, guys…does she really deserve to be a superstar "singer" when she can't even handle a song that has a range of what, 5 notes or so? i've heard better singers at my favorite bar's saturday karaoke night…wait, is that what this video clip is from? interesting…
jasmine says – reply to this

I can't believe she keeps singing that song! Soooooo old!!
