Please do your civic duty. (This is not a joke)
« on: February 01, 2005, 04:21:33 pm »
Right.  This thread is not a joke. 

Ashlee Simpson however, is.

If you failed to make it out and vote in the past Iraqi election, redeem yourself by signing the petition.  It just makes happy good sense.

http://www.petitiononline.com/StopAsh/petition.html


Oh man, I just realized that if they catch her smoking weed (the band made her smoke it btw), the headlines will be "Influence and dangers of 'Potash' on stupid teens a concern to school officials"

(My sincere apologies to anyone who likes Simpson and is offended by this.  Of course, if this is the case you are probably having someone help you read all the big words, so first ask them: "Is this funny?")

Signing a petition will do nothing (do they ever?)  People have to stop buying her music.  If you were a record company, what would you listen to -  public outlash or the money? Money is very, very loud. 

That's how we got rid of Joey Lawrence (musically that is...).  :-)

Okay, I'll explain... she was caught lip synching.  The backing track was wrong, and like a true pro, she covered up the error by doing a little jig and walking off stage. 

It won't hurt (unless the sight of performers bombing makes you wince).  But here's a better copy of that video (also includes a link to where she gets booed at the Rose Bowl)

Wouldn't it be cheaper (and faster) to organise a hit?

Anyone up for it?

Come on, man, I know people that'd do it for free! But a hit is too easy. We have to humiliate her on the way down by getting the petition through to strike her from the pop culture list.
