Ashlee Simpson's Fans Can Trade In CD
(AP, 11/15/2004 1:43 PM)

Given that it's been blown wide open that Ashlee Simpson lip-synchs, a New York group is offering her fans the chance to try what they feel is "real" music.

HOPE, or Horrified Observers of Pedestrian Entertainment, is giving people who bought Simpson's album the chance to turn it in for what it calls "one of a higher entertainment quality."

Fans who bring the disc to New York's Knitting Factory can trade it in for one by Elvis Costello , The Ramones, X, Jimmy Page and Robert Plant , Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, The Grateful Dead, Joni Mitchell or Brian Wilson.

The 19-year-old singer was busted for a "Saturday Night Live" lip-synch gone awry, with her manager-father saying that his daughter used the extra help because acid reflux disease had made her voice hoarse. Joe Simpson added that she's never used the extra help before.

If you're not in New York, you can still get in on the deal by checking out www.HopeInAmerica.com

Aretha Franklin lip-synched the National Anthem at the Piston's final playoff game.
That's "real music"? :|

In a why I feel sorry for her. That realy had to suck that night at SNL. She was probably balling her eyes out for weeks and now she'll never be able to dig her self out of this hole.

She blamed the band too.

It's her own fault.

Yeah, blaming the band was low. The band shouldn't have sit there and took that shit.

Agreed.

And the difference between Aretha lip-synching a really important live performance and Ashlee Simpson lip-synching a semi-important live performance is:

Aretha can siiiiiing.

I'd hope that she could sing a simple song for a national event, where her hometown underdog team (who epitomized the term 'Going To Work') was blowing out the clear national favorite. And that's soul? :(
