I don't understand how Ashlee Simpson has a record contract, a tv show on MTV or even a semi-hit single. She is not as pretty as her sister, her voice is weak (much weaker than her sisters) and she is straight-up dull. Can someone please explain how this happened?

It's quite simple. Her last name is Simpson and she has a sister named Jessica ;)

She is a mess. I am watchin her show right now and she is annoying and the total opposite of Jessica. How can 1 child be sweet, kind, respectful, and the other is like a bad singing demon child.
She is going to be just like Solange.

Her voice is terrible. I have not heard her hit one correct or good sounding note...ever.

She gets credited for writing her own songs, but Pieces of Me is rather bland and is lacking substance.
Having said that, the song is not terrible, but it's not all that great either.

"Pieces of Me" is a decent song, but her voice isn't too good. When she sang it live on MTV it sounded like she was having an asthma attack. She was cute on 7th Heaven but now she's not hot at all, why would she dye her hair black and go with a punk look with the armbands and the skater shoes, she is trying to be anti-Jessica.

How do ya'll think her debut album Autobiography will do commercially? On one hand she is Jessica's sister, yet on the other hand her music is lackluster. I say it'll be a dud.

I think that the show is an attempt to create an Avril clone. The constant insistence by Ashlee that she's rock and not pop, the putdowns of blond female teenypop star of the moment, the less-than-impressive (to put it mildly) live vocals-any of this sound familiar? ;)

It seems like she's got a decent ability to write songs. Her voice isn't good, but it's tolerable. I'm finding interest in her show now.

To be fair, As much as Jessica may annoy people, there's no evidence as far as i've seen that she's anything but a very nice, if unintelligent, girl. Certainly no reports of Diva tantrums like so many other stars.

I never understood why Ashlee dyed her hair black, either. She looks much better being a blonde. But she's gravy-training heavily off of her sister. Let's just hope she doesn't hook up with Aaron Carter.

Not all that bright, but cute and sweet. |

I have never heard this girl sing well. Its kind of embarassing. And her constant screams of IM REAL! coupled with footage of record label people obviously molding her into an acceptable image...thats embarassing too. |

I actually prefer Ashlee to Jessica. But believe me, that's not saying much.
Personally, I think Jessica is one of the worst singers of all time, and every song she's ever released has been absolutely awful. Ashlee wins by default, although she's completely mediocre in every way.

Her songs might not be that great all the time, but shes got an amazing voice. Not the best, but DEFINATLY not the worst. But i think Ashlee has a horrible voice. |

Worst voice awards goes to J-Lo and Hillary Duff. Ashlee is bad, but she's not as bad as those 2 nothings.

Here is what I think is with Ashlee:
Her voice is good for the type of music she songs. Not everyone needs to sound like Whitney or Celine. "Pieces of Me" is a great pop song. As long as she has good material, I'll listen.
She seems to be almost as ditzy as her sister. But also sweet.
She's hot in the girl next door kind of way. Kind of like you would have a shot at her if she wasn't famous. She looks better with blonde hair than black hair.

She's such an outstanding singer and songwriter as well as stunning beauty, this song ought to be the first of ten #1's in a row!
Well, with all these negative comments, I thought I ought to say something nice about her, even though it's totally unbelievable.

Yeah, we must be hearing different singers then. Jessica is horrific, no vocal technique whatsoever. She sings every song like she has asthma, and when she's not trying desperately to breathe, she's screaming at the top of her lungs. Seeing her perform on stage is a living nightmare as well. Awful, awful singer IMO. We'll just have to agree to disagree. |

Awful, awful singer IMO. Haha, nicely put (except for the "agree to disagree" part; everyone should realize that she's awful. ) Jessica is a howlingly bad singer. She reminds me of Will Ferrell on SNL as the man with voice immodulation, from about five years ago (I think his name was Jacob Silge). "I SUFFER FROM VOICE IMMODULATION; I CANNOT CONTROL THE VOLUME OF MY VOICE. IT IS A DISORDER AFFECTING SEVEN PEOPLE IN THE UNITED STATES ALONE." Jessica must be another one of those seven people. She just has horrible command of the amplification of her vocal chords. So nearly every time she tries to sing, it results in an absolute train wreck. I don't like "Pieces of You", but I can live with it, and even root for it, for three reasons: • It doesn't sound like Jessica Simpson • It's taking some of the spotlight away from Jessica Simpson • It's taking radio spins away from Jessica Simpson. |
