Jessica Simpson really can't sing. Who told her she can? I saw her
on leno or letterman a couple weeks ago, and tuned in just as she was gulping for air and gutteral blasting her way with heaves and sighs through the absolute worst rendition of my once beloved Terry Nun's "take my breath away'.

Well, indeed, she took my breath away. I can never ever hear that song again without being reminded of JS looking like a blow fish as she heaved and hurled her way through what was once a genuine classic song written for a woman with a true Voice.

Who on earth convinced that bent-nosed, poorly dressed piece of trailer trash that she possessed any ability to sing? She mutilated that once brilliant composition...

These teens don't 'sing' anymore. Brittany Spears' guttaral regurgitations have somehow cleared the way for more of these overstylized, talentless women to heave their breasts and simulate passion and sex on stage, while pretending to 'sing'... when in fact it's all little more than nasal and glutenous vocal meanderings comprised of no talent or skills.

MAKE THEM STOP! Please, make them STOP. MAKE HER STOP.

2. It's America.


We are a braindead people...what can you do...the good looking corporate backed singers get all the air time regardless of talent because 11 and 12 year olds are the target market..

Destroy your television and you won't have to put up with it.

3. And she does too much with her hands and face when she sings...
Stand still, do minimal movement...and you're fine...Whoever told her to do that shit sucks, and needs to be fired.

4. simpson is famous for being stupid
Expecting her to be able to sing on top of her day job is going a bit far, don't you think?

8. There's still hope!
I recently discussed her performance with Jewel with some of my middle school music classes, and the general consensus was that it sucked. Really bad.

Personally, I'm doing my part to break them out of the braindead MTV mold by playing them things like "Rock and Roll McDonalds". :) As I said in my message to the 8th grade class in this year's yearbook (apologies to Negativland), "Never accept the mainstream as your best entertainment value."

17. Absolutely...
I saw him interviewed and he said that when she was sixteen he gave her a promise ring and made her vow that she would retain her virginity until her wedding night! That's classic- "All female sexuality in my house belongs to me" Even if such unsavory activity wasn't ACTUALLY occuring, it was certainly being thought about.
He is a creepy Texan Southern Baptist minister with a penchant for peddling softcore come ons.

10. All she's good for is for me to lust after.
Other than that, she's brainless and can't sing.

26. You have horrendous taste.
She has no talent. She's an idiot. She is quite likely an excruciatingly annoying human being whose company is utterly unbearable for anyone with an IQ above room temperature. Who cares what she looks like? THe other facts of her personality are enough to disqualify her utterly from any consideration as attractive.

31. Jessica Simpson ruined my twice-weekly Pizza Hut lunch buffets
She looked so world-class hideous in that close-up shot in the Pizza Hut commercial that I'm too petrified to venture there until the chain has been decontaminated.

One redeeming quality: her husband appears to be a USC fan, based on one 10 minute segment of their show, all I could tolerate.

32. I heard this morning...
that she just performed with Aretha on one of the VH1 Diva shows -- now THAT I would have loved to see!

Good gosh, trying to keep up vocally with ARETHA -- puh-LEASE! Dream on Jessica. :)
