I can see why they would record the live preformances, but record the whole damn thing, not just the audio. It looks cheesy and unprofessional. To me, if they were to record it, they should do the whole thing(video, as well as audio). So in this case, it looks like she was lipsyching because she sucks.

The fact that she does not write her own songs scores one for us as well. At least I would have believed the idea that they recorded it for safety purposes rather than sucky purposes a little more.

The point its, she has very little talent. If she cannot write her own music, whos to say she cannot SING her own music as well?

Washington Here....

ooooo, She blamed the band. If you look at the tape, there is a time when the gutar players arn't even playing. :(

And, they faded out her vocals when they realized she missed it.

It's one thing to mess up, it's another thing to blame it on someone else.

I be the band is pi$$ed.

I think I heard her say "My band started playing the wrong song."

I'm sorry, but how does the entire band make a mistake of playing a completely different song? Wouldn't it be more like one member messing up, like, say...Ashlee Simpson?

explain in a little bit :rolleyes: ... crap pop singers have been lip syncing for years , this is why i have no respect for them, they are fake, phonies and liars. I absoluetly despise them as dirt...

after reading this whole thread, i find it funny that you guys don't listen to pop. pop is still music regardless what genre it be. like this kid i quoted. he listens to a band that does nothing but scream like b*tches and wrestle each other on stage, wearing mask like it's wwe. it's a gimmick.

back to the topic

her pride must be hurt after that mishappen.

I'd hate to be the realist here but didn't she do "Pieces of Me" earlier in the show? The song on the SNL video is the begining to "Pieces of Me" (On a Monday and I'm waiting...) and I find it unlikely that she would do the same song twice, even if she is an one-hit wonder. You can even see her do a "WTF wince" when she hears the begining to "Pieces of Me" instead of whatever song she was going to actually sing. In a related topic, I'm a big fan of the groupthink displayed here, half the posts in this thread consists of some variation on the word "0wned"...it's like a l33t-speak feeding frenzy. Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if some people didn't even see the video, they just saw "0wned" in a couple of posts, read the topic title ("Ashlee Simpson caught LIPSYNCHING on SNL" isn't entirely objective), and they decided to add to the discussion by cerebrally stating that she got 0wned. If any one actually saw the show, it would be obvious that it was a technical issue, not an issue of lipsyncing.

If you watch the beginning, you'll notice it says "Broadcast from a previous live recording". All the acting is done live, but it's recorded before (just like late night shows).

Or at least that's what I assumed from what I read.

Ok so the SNL guys screwed up with the sound. Oh wait. What were they playing incorrectly? A recording of her voice for her to synchronize her lips with.

Nobody is blaming lil' Ashlee; however, it's now clear that she really does have no talent.

Around here, in Portugal, I have NEVER seen a professional artist sing live on a TvShow. They always do that lipsync crap.

I once went to an Award Show for some radio station, and I (and everyone for that matter) could clearly notice that the band' instruments weren't even pluged-in anywhere. There were absolutely no wires whatsoever on stage. Blah... so ****ing fake. :angry:

ps: I'd still pork her too :yes:

Well she didnt sing after the technical problem, whether new or not, its her song [Or the songwriters] and she's payed to perform. And that was a really silly dance just before her voice came out. The band did the proper thing and continued playing, she could at least just stand there and go through it all. Joe Satriani did that once only his equipment wasnt properly plugged in, but he stood there anyway.

LOL not at her but all of you... If any of you bothered to watch the whole show.. you would have caught on to the fact that the music in her second performance just happed to be the same song from her first performance.. and if you saw the first performance.. the vocals are supposed to sound like 2 of her singing and to get that effect in a live performance on a show like that you play a track while the singer sings the same track. In a studio the artist would record the track once then sing with it during playback while recording the second track, also having the first track on a slight time delay. Makes for a nice effect.

    • how about fixing the performance?
    • No, "a great deal" for 32GB of DDR5 is $50, not $350. I mean I see what you mean, that it's a decent price compared to what's currently available, but you really should put a disclaimer in this articles explaining that it's still multiple times more expensive than it used to be.
    • Linux 7.1 stable launch looms as Linus Torvalds releases the final release candidate by Paul Hill Linus Torvalds has just released what’s expected to be the final release candidate of Linux 7.1, rc7. The Linux founder said that this RC is not small, but smaller than recent releases, which is a good sign because he expects the stable version to drop next week if things continue on this trajectory. Linux kernels see a merge window for the first two weeks of their life, where developers add new features, then there are about seven or eight weeks of release candidates before the stable version. Typically, there are seven release candidates, but if more time is needed, then an eighth release candidate is released too. This week’s RC’s biggest area of fixes was for GPUs, with networking just behind. Torvalds said that the rest of the release was “pretty random and spread out” with some architecture fixes, driver fixes, filesystem improvements, and build fixes for more unusual configs. In terms of specific pieces of hardware receiving improvements in this update, we had more AMD Zen6 models supported and fixes for AMD SDMA 7.1 and GFX11. Hardware that got improvements includes Lenovo laptops, HONOR laptops, and MSI laptops. Here are the changelogs for those: ASoC: amd: acp: Add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Pro 7 15ASH11 Input: atkbd - add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Air 14 (83QK) Input: atkbd - skip deactivate for HONOR BCC-N's internal keyboard ASoC: amd: yc: Add MSI Raider A18 HX A9WJG to quirk table ASoC: amd: yc: Enable internal mic on MSI Bravo 17 C7VF When the stable Linux 7.1 is released, it will be up to distribution maintainers, such as Canonical and Red Hat, to release the update to their users via the update manager. Some versions of Linux will get it before others, and some will never get it at all. Fedora and Arch-based distros will be among the first to get it, though. If you don’t get it, the security fixes will be backported to your system’s kernel, so you won’t be at risk, but you won’t get newer hardware support, which is fine if your computer works now.
