Gawker: Ashley Simpson, Glutton for Punishment
Apparently she was booed after her performance at the Orange Bowl. The funny thing is, is that this time it's all because wasn't lipsyncing. You guys must have all been boozed up on Jan. 1st to have missed this. Now, admittedly, I'm not much of a sports guy, but after all the buzz on the other filter about her first mess up, well. This would have been interesting to see. Miss it? Here's a video clip.
But saying you'd take a bat to a young man is a-ok, since it's only downright violent but not sexist.Hyperbolic celebrity-bashing is hardly a matter of -ism. I tend to think it a combination of boredom and superiority complex. In that vein, since I'm bored and superior to Ashley: she was way off-key, even to my untrained ears. Most popstars I've heard live sing better than this. Even Brintey can manage on-key live performances here and there.talentless hacksgifted musical artists were booed that night. It seems the type of people who attend major college bowl games tend not to be fans of manufactured bubblegum pop and manufactured country pop.
