I saw on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno weeks ago, and she was on it, and she sang live, no lipsync. She sound horrible though compare to the CD version. Wonder why she has to lipsync for SNL.Plus its no big deal to sound horrible live, I know a lot of more respectable singers that are horrible live also.

I don't really care about the lip synching. To me that is acceptable at a major live event like SNL when you want to sound perfect. Unfortunately it didn't work out too well. I really do think this will actually boost her career though. I mean everyone has been talking about this for two days now, so she just needs her PR people to spin this into some kind of positive and she is sitting on a publicity goldmine.

I know a lot of more respectable singers that are horrible live also.

You ... ... Heresy! . Respectable ... that are Horrible Live ... No ...

SOAD = good live

Descedants of Cain = good live

Eric clapton = good live

.... good people are good live, now lets see whats horrible live

Busted = ... **** wherever they are

S club or.. sum off shot = horrible live.. i expect.. wudn't kno, they prob lip sync tho

Boy band # 1 = horrible live (when not lip syncing)

now i don't know if Syncing is spelt correctly, but I do know that the only bands horrible live are manufactured, and therefore NOT respectable... if you like good charlotte or something then fine... i have no respect for your opinion, but if you can name a band thats good, that you like, and give me an example of a similar good band thats horrible live....

neway on topic? --- pop artists shud be shot without exception, they're money shud be taken and used to fund the Culling of Trevs (neds, scallies, townies, chav scum)

Did anyone just see her on the Radio Music Awards? She just said the cause of it was because she has severe acid reflex and moments before the show she just happened to loose her voice.

cough BS cough

Tune in to the TODAY SHOW tomorrow morning,

Tuesday, October 26th.

Ashlee Simpson sits down with Katie Couric to discuss her

Saturday Night Live performance.

From her webpage. Hey, I was curious! I was reading her forum, some are saying that she lost her voice that day and had to lipsync! :laugh:

Shmucks.

Haha, that's hilarious. :laugh:

Edit: I also have acid reflux, it doesn't cause you to lose your voice and there are several medications that completely cure it. :rofl:

I can't believe all you b*tches are making a big deal out of nothing.  It is not uncommon for people to prerecord their "live" tv performances.  This is especially true for pop singers.  The AV nerd ****** up, not Ashlee.  She went off stage because she was shocked and at a loss for what to do.  Remember she's young and new to the business.  It's not like she's a veteran so I don't blame her for losing her cool in the moment.  As for her dancing, she said she was dancing a "hoe down".  Obviously she was trying to make light out of the situation.  So many of you Neowin guys need to get over yourself.  And no, I'm not a fan of Ashlee Simpson so don't say that's my reason for defending her.  It's just that a lot of you need to grow up.

Dude, it doesn't matter who messed up. She was exposed and that is what matters. She is a disaster. Perhaps some of us need to grow up, but it is nice to know that people are offended by low talent bimbos and appreciate the real thing.

Heck it was on ABC World news tonight....

they played the "questionable" clip of her and her booting off stage... Then a clip of her after the show... "sorry my BAND started playing the wrong song" so she dissed her band too...

Nice... Classic move, she will have a hard time recovering from this....

This will never go away, maybe a job in the fast food market is next... :rolleyes:

Lucky Magazine Interview:

LM: What are your takes on lip-synching?

AS: I'm totally against it and offended by it. I'm going out to let my real talent show, not to just stand there and dance around. Personally, I'd never lip-synch. It's just not me.

Whahaha. I like how she lip synced, and then started just dancing around. Stupid baich.

Haha, that's hilarious.  :laugh:

Sounds like you've never had a serious case of acid reflux, or actually have had it at all. I've had damage done to my vocal chords from it, and it took some time to heal. Yes, it can cause your throat to become very irritated/raspy, even loosing your voice. Some of the medications have side effects that are worse than what they are trying to fix. Frankly I could care less whether or not she did / didn't lipsync, it'll be long forgotten in a week or two.

@ QuantumTrickery: I have it, and take Prevacid for it. I had it several years before I was diagnosed. You are probably right about it screwing with your throat and vocal chords, but in my experience it has never affected my voice. Either way, she was caught and if she does in fact have acid reflux I'm sure she has good health insurance. :yes:

    • Thanks for the advice guys, I'll give my current GPU a clean and then run the benchmarks to see how similar it is. Hopefully a bit of a clean-out will help it last a bit longer.
    • Pretty sure those will still be in this game. The series' well-explored psychosis themes will return as well.

    • Microsoft making much needed change to Windows 11, 10 Patch Tuesday security updates by Sayan Sen Recently, Microsoft delivered its latest Defender patches for Windows 11 ISOs. These definitions are released from time to time alongside the general security updates available during Patch Tuesday. Speaking of Defender, the company has now announced another important change that affects how security updates are delivered to enterprise devices running Windows. According to a recent announcement, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint's endpoint detection and response (EDR) updates will no longer be bundled with the monthly Windows security updates or Patch Tuesdays. Instead the company is shifting delivery of these updates to Microsoft Update, bringing EDR servicing in line with several other Microsoft Defender components. If you recall, Microsoft last year moved PowerShell updates to Microsoft Update (MU) as well since it provides automatic updates for Microsoft products and services. Thus the move is intended to allow Microsoft to deliver EDR improvements and security enhancements independently of the OS's regular monthly update cycle; this should enable faster deployment of protection updates without requiring organizations to wait for the next Patch release. For those unfamiliar, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint's EDR capabilities are designed to help organizations detect, investigate, and respond to advanced threats across managed devices. Keeping these components updated is critical for maintaining protection against evolving attack techniques. The rollout has already began for Windows 10 devices in late May 2026 (last month) and Microsoft says it will gradually expand support to Windows 11 and the remaining supported Windows versions over the coming months. The company expects deployment across Windows 10 and Windows 11 to be completed by fall 2026 or around Q3 of this year. Once the transition is complete, EDR updates will be delivered through Microsoft Update using KB5005292, provided the required prerequisite updates have already been installed. Microsoft is also introducing a new Defender Update Service as part of the change. Following installation of the first update, devices will automatically create a new directory located at %ProgramData%\Microsoft\Microsoft Defender\Defender Update. Microsoft notes that restarts may occasionally be necessary in case of "rare" failure scenarios. For most organizations, the tech giant says no action will be required as long as Microsoft Update is already permitted within their update management strategy. Admins who rely on manually deployed update packages, however, will need to adjust their processes to ensure the new Defender update package is included. Microsoft also recommends reviewing internal documentation and notifying helpdesk and security operations teams about the updated delivery mechanism to avoid confusion during the transition. As a prerequisite, the tech giant notes that systems must be running Sense version 10.8798.25857.1000 or later and have one of the following Windows updates (or later) installed: Win11 24H2 KB5062660 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win11 23H2 KB5062663 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win11 22H2 KB5062663 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win10 22H2 KB5062649 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win10 1809 KB5063877 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2019 KB5063877 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2022 KB5063880 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2025 KB5063878 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) As always, organizations should verify that their update policies align with the new servicing approach before the broader rollout reaches all supported Windows platforms later this year. In case of major problems, the EDR update can be rolled back to the inbox version stored in %ProgramFiles%\\Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) using: MpCmdRun.exe -RevertMde -Product Edr -ToVersion Inbox For those who have access to the Microsoft 365 Admin Center portal, you can view the message here under ID MC1381119.
    • My problem with these smart scopes is that IMO they're not really an entrance into astronomy, they're an entrance to looking at pretty(ish) pictures that you take by essentially pressing a button and letting the scope do the work. I still maintain that getting some binoculars or a solid dedicated telescope (which doesn't have to mean expensive) and actually spending time learning the night sky and using a telescope is a much better way to actually learn. But, granted, the learning curve is a bit steeper (as it tends to be).
