| − | '''Ashlee Nicole Simpson''' (born [[October 3]], [[1984]]) is an [[United States|American]] [[pop rock]] [[singer]] and an [[actress]]. Originally known for being the younger sister of [[pop music|pop]] singer [[Jessica Simpson]], Simpson eventually rose to prominence in her own right in mid-[[2004]] through her chart-topping [[debut album]] ''[[Autobiography (Ashlee Simpson album)|Autobiography]]'' and the accompanying [[MTV]] [[reality television|reality series]] ''[[The Ashlee Simpson Show]]''. Simpson received negative attention when she used a pre-recorded vocal track on the [[sketch comedy]] show ''[[Saturday Night Live]]'' (SNL) in [[October 2004]]. This led to accusations that she had [[lip sync|lip synched]] during the performance (according to Simpson, she needed a backing track due to illness), which continued to follow her throughout the promotion of her first album. Simpson's second album, ''[[I Am Me]]'', was released in [[October 2005]].

| − | ==Biography==
| + | |
| − | ===Early history===
| + | |
| − | Born and raised in [[Texas]], Simpson is the daughter of [[Joe Simpson (manager)|Joe]], a former [[Baptist]] minister and now her manager, and Tina Simpson, who [[homeschooling|home-schooled]] Ashlee. An accomplished dancer, Simpson began studying classical [[ballet]] at the age of three, and was admitted to the [[School of American Ballet]] in [[New York City]] at the age of eleven. After Simpson's sister Jessica signed a record deal, their family decided to move to [[Los Angeles, California]], where Simpson began appearing in [[television commercial]]s.{{ref|Age11BalletSchool}}{{ref|TVCommercialsKohls}} When Jessica achieved fame through her first album, Simpson became a backup dancer for Jessica's concerts. Later, she began appearing in films and television series, including an episode of the [[television|TV]] [[situation comedy|sitcom]] ''[[Malcolm in the Middle]]'' in [[2001]], a minor role in the [[2002]] [[film]] ''[[The Hot Chick]]'' and a recurring role in the [[series]] ''[[7th Heaven]]''. In [[2003]], Simpson recorded a song called "Just Let Me Cry" for the [[soundtrack]] to the film ''[[Freaky Friday (2003 film)|Freaky Friday]]''. Eventually, Simpson signed a record deal with [[Geffen Records]].
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ===''Autobiography'': Early music career and reality TV===
| + | |
| − | Simpson's first [[Album (music)|album]], ''Autobiography'', was released in the U.S. on [[July 20]], [[2004]] and debuted at number one on the [[Billboard 200]] chart with sales in the first week numbering about 400,000 copies. The album was certified triple [[RIAA certification|platinum]] on September 2004. Critical reviews were mixed, with the online review collection site [[Metacritic]] giving the album fifty-five out of one-hundred points{{ref|metacriticautobiography}}. ''[[Rolling Stone]]'' magazine's Peter Relic described ''Autobiography'' as a "mundane melange of [[Avril Lavigne|Avril]]-ish brat pop and [[Sheryl Crow]] cod rock"{{ref|RelicAutobiography}} while "[[E! Online]]" wrote "Even if it doesn't wow you, Autobiography may surprise you."{{ref|eonlinereview}} The [[single (music)|single]] "[[Pieces of Me]]" that preceded the album was one of the most widely-played songs in the U.S. in mid-2004 and sold well internationally, but the next single, "[[Shadow (song)|Shadow]]", was less successful and not released in the U.K. However, the "[[La La (song)|La La]]" single was released in the UK in [[2005]].
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | When appearing for live performances, Simpson performs live with a backing band that consists of Ray Brady (guitar), Braxton Olita (guitar), Joey Kaimana (bass guitar—from 2004 to 2005 Zach Kennedy filled this role), Chris James (keyboards and vocals—from late 2004 to 2005 Lucy Walsh filled this role), and Chris Fox (drums). In September 2004, Simpson announced on her website that the band would be named "Ashlee Simpson and Submission," taking the name from the fact that they had received so many submissions of proposals for the name.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Simpson also occasionally appeared on ''[[Newlyweds]]'', a reality show about the married life of Jessica and her husband [[Nick Lachey]]; eventually, she got her own MTV reality show entitled ''The Ashlee Simpson Show'', which aired in a time slot subsequent time to ''Newlyweds''. It ran in the U.S. for eight weekly episodes over the summer of 2004, and a second season of ten episodes aired from January to March 2005. The show dealt with the process of writing, recording, and performing Simpson's music, and also dealt with aspects of her personal life.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | In addition to her own first album, Simpson sang "Christmas Past, Present, and Future" on the 2004 holiday album ''[[Radio Disney Jingle Jams]]'' and a [[duet (music)|duet]] of the [[Christmas song]] "[[Little Drummer Boy]]" with her sister Jessica for the album ''[[Rejoyce: The Christmas Album|Rejoyce]]'', which they sung together during the [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] [[variety show|variety hour]] special "Nick & Jessica's Family Christmas". {{ref|Ashleeawards}}{{ref|njxmas}} Simpson also co-hosted ''[[Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin Eve]]'' along with [[Regis Philbin]] (in [[Dick Clark (entertainer)|Dick Clark's]] absence) at the end of the year, hosting the West Coast portion of the show and performing three songs.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ===''Saturday Night Live'' incident===
| + | |
| − | Simpson appeared on ''[[Saturday Night Live]]'' as a musical guest on [[October 24]], [[2004]], and as is customary for the show's format, she was scheduled to perform two songs. The first song she performed, "Pieces of Me", went off without a hitch. However, when she began her second song, "Autobiography", a recording of "Pieces of Me" was heard before she had raised the microphone to her mouth. Simpson began to dance nervously (later calling it a "hoe-down") and then left the stage{{ref|snlincidentvideo}}. The show then cut to an emergency [[television commercial|commercial break]]. During the closing of the show Simpson appeared with the guest host [[Jude Law]] stating that her band performed the wrong song in the opening on the performance. Others, however, criticized her for what they saw as evidence that she was [[lip sync]]ing.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | On [[October 25]], Simpson called in to the [[music video]] show ''[[Total Request Live]]'' and explained that due to complications arising from a "severe" variation of [[acid reflux]] (which had previously been seen in ''The Ashlee Simpson Show'') she had completely lost her voice and that her doctor advised her not to sing. She continued that because of the acid reflux, her father required her to use a [[guide track]] for the performance. She said of the incident: "I made a complete fool of myself." According to her, the drummer hit the wrong button, which caused the wrong track to be played. {{ref|vh1snl}} During the [[October 25]] [[Radio Music Award]]s broadcast, Simpson pretended, as a joke, to make the same mistake as she did in the ''SNL'' incident, but then began to perform "Autobiography", without using a pre-recorded vocal track as she had done during the prior ''SNL'' performance. On [[October 31]], the [[CBS]] news program ''[[60 Minutes]]'' aired footage from Simpson's rehearsals before the ''SNL'' performance, in which she was portrayed as having trouble with her voice and seemed visibly upset.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Almost a year later, Simpson was invited back as a guest performer, with a scheduled appearance on the [[October 8]], [[2005]] episode of ''SNL''. For her first of two songs, she performed the ballad "Catch Me When I Fall", which was written about her previous ''SNL'' experience. Her second and more energetic song of the show was the first single from ''I Am Me'', "[[Boyfriend (song)|Boyfriend]]". The audience's enthusiastic reaction to this performance seemed more positive than its reaction to the first, and Simpson glowed, thanking the crowd before the broadcast went to commercial.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ===Awards and more controversy===
| + | |
| − | In 2004 Simpson received the "Song of the Summer" [[Teen Choice Award]] for "Pieces of Me," as well as the "Fresh Face" award. In addition, she also won a Billboard Award for New Female Artist of the Year in December and was later named ''[[Entertainment Weekly]]''s "Breakout Star of 2004" in January 2005. On [[January 4]] [[2005]], Simpson performed "[[La La (song)|La La]]" at the halftime show for the [[Orange Bowl]] in [[Miami, Florida]]; when her performance finished, many of the 72,000-plus spectators [[booing|booed]]. Representatives for the Orange Bowl stated that they were pleased with her performance and felt that it was a belated reaction to the ''SNL'' incident, while others have speculated that it may have been because the audience of the Orange Bowl was outside of Simpson's target age bracket. Still others disagree, however, and assert that her performance was poor and off-key. {{ref|daddydearest}}{{ref|local10orangebowl}}{{ref|mtvorangebowl}}{{ref|orangebowlaudio}}
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ===Foray into film===
| + | |
| − | Simpson had a supporting role as an aspiring actress and short-haired "[[tomboy]]" named Clea in the [[romantic comedy film]] ''[[Undiscovered]]'' (originally titled ''Wannabe''), an [[independent film]] that was released in theaters on [[August 26]], 2005. Simpson, who filmed her scenes in late 2004, said that for her first significant film role she decided to play a secondary character rather than taking on a leading role so soon. Film critic Michael Rechtstaffen of the ''[[Hollywood Reporter]]'' said Simpson's performance was "subdued" and "unadorned"{{ref|michaelundiscovered}}, and Robert K. Elder felt that Simpson was "aware of her own overexposure and underplaying her part fittingly"{{ref|robertundiscovered}}. The film itself met with mostly negative reviews{{ref|metacriticundiscovered}}, and placed outside of the top ten{{ref|bbcundiscoveredboxoffice}}, earning $676,048 in its opening weekend.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ===Early 2005===
| + | |
| − | In January 2005, following her Orange Bowl performance, an [[Internet petition]] at PetitionOnline.com complaining about Simpson's singing was among the most active of the site's petitions.{{ref|simpsonpetition}} Simpson later said, "that's cool. You don't always have to be a fan of everybody's music," also citing the support she had received from her fans.{{ref|simpsonpetitioncomment}} Around the time of the petition, ''[[Cosmopolitan (magazine)|Cosmopolitan]]'' magazine chose Simpson to be on the cover of the February 2005 issue,{{ref|cosmocover}} naming her the "Fun Fearless Female of the Year".{{ref|cosmoarticle}}
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Simpson's first U.S. headlining tour (with two dates in [[Canada]] as well) ran from mid-February to late April 2005. The opening acts for the tour were [[Pepper's Ghost (band)|Pepper's Ghost]] and [[The Click Five]].{{ref|mtvtourreview}} In addition to her usual ''Autobiography'' songs, Simpson also performed three [[cover song]]s; [[The Pretenders]]' "Brass in Pocket", [[Blondie (band)|Blondie]]'s "[[Call Me (Blondie song)|Call Me]]", and [[Madonna (entertainer)|Madonna]]'s "[[Burning Up]]" along with Simpson's own unreleased song "Hollywood". She said that the tour would be "stripped down", without [[pyrotechnics]], and that "it's going to be me and my band getting out there and having fun."{{ref|rickbirdarticle}} In March 2005, Simpson stated that she would like to incorporate the feel of music from the [[1980s]] on her second album, and that the album would focus less on relationships and more on herself. She also said that she wanted to do another television show, but that ''The Ashlee Simpson Show'' would conclude at the end of its second season,{{ref|mtvgoes80s}} the last episode of which aired at the end of March.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ===Current activities===
| + | |
| − | Simpson's second album, ''I Am Me'', was released on [[October 18]], [[2005]]; {{ref|mtvinanotherlife}} the first single, "Boyfriend", hit radio in early September 2005. Simpson began a tour on [[September 21]] in [[Portland, Oregon]], to promote the new album and single, and she has appeared on several television programs to promote the album. Most notably, Simpson returned to ''SNL'' on [[October 8]]/[[October 9|9]], performing two new songs, "Catch Me When I Fall" and "Boyfriend". "Catch Me When I Fall" was written by Simpson after her unsuccessful first appearance, a fact she noted before starting the song. In contrast to her SNL debut in October of 2004, her second appearance on the show went on without any problems. On [[October 14]], MTV aired a show about Simpson's 21st birthday earlier in the month, ''Ashlee Simpson: Live and Legal''.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ==Image and personal life==
| + | |
| − | Simpson has a decidedly different image from that of her sister. Previously [[blond|blonde]] like Jessica, she dyed her hair dark during the recording of the MTV reality show after she finished filming for the ''7th Heaven'' television series, although after a year with dark hair she returned to blonde in 2005. Simpson's songs also have rock elements absent from her sister's music, and Simpson often wears shirts with "[[Punk fashion|punk]]"-style designs, sometimes displaying band names, and typically has her fingernails and toenails painted black. She has three [[tattoos]]: a star on one wrist, two cherries on her ankle, and the word "love" on her other wrist. {{ref|tattoos}}{{ref|tattoos2}}
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Her vocals, while generally not thought to equal her sister's range, have been praised by some as fitting the style of her music, and are sometimes described as raspy. Simpson and her sister Jessica were tied for third on oft-quoted celebrity-fashion critic [[Mr. Blackwell]]'s list of the worst-dressed celebrities of 2004. Blackwell wrote that "from gaudy to grim to downright frenetic these two prove that bad taste is positively genetic."
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | She has refused to discuss her sex life, in contrast with her sister Jessica, who openly stated her intention to practice [[sexual abstinence]] until [[marriage]]. "I decided that I didn't want to talk about that because it's super personal," she said of the situation.{{ref|RefusalToDiscussSexLife}} Simpson's relationship with [[Josh Henderson]] lasted about two years and ended during the first episode of ''The Ashlee Simpson Show''. Soon she began her relationship with musician [[Ryan Cabrera]], a relationship that was also featured in the reality show, and Simpson appeared as Cabrera's love interest in the [[music video]] for Cabrera's song "On the Way Down". The two were reported to have split up in August 2004 due to their busy schedules, but they were sometimes seen together in the months that followed.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | At the beginning of the second season of ''The Ashlee Simpson Show'' Simpson indicated that they had resumed their relationship, although the two broke up again in early 2005. Simpson says the single "Boyfriend" from her upcoming album ''[[I Am Me]]'' "is about [how] every girl out there sometimes thinks you stole her boyfriend. It's just making fun of that"; she says it is not about [[Lindsay Lohan]] and [[Wilmer Valderrama]], although there have been rumors that Simpson stole Valderrama from Lohan.{{ref|mtvnotlohan}}
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ==Criticism==
| + | |
| − | There have been arguments that Simpson is a "manufactured" artist and mediocre singer, and that her appearances on her MTV reality show were "phony" and aimed at promoting her album. Such critics cite incidents like the ''SNL'' episode and the Orange Bowl performance as proof of their claims, while others consider Simpson's carefully crafted image instead of her music to be the reason for her continued success.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Assuming she is a manufactured artist, much of the media speculate that Simpson was pushed to fame through the aggressive management style and contacts of her father, Joe Simpson, who is her manager and was the executive producer of her reality show. Furthermore, some think that Simpson has lip-synced on occasions other than the ''SNL'' episode, comparing the impact of the ''SNL'' incident to the incident [[Milli Vanilli]] had in 1990 in a live MTV performance in which the guide track skipped, revealing that they had lip-synced. {{ref|lipservice}} {{ref|ishkar}} {{ref|daddydearest}}
| + | |
| − | <!-- We need a source for this....
| + | |
| − | However, Simpson's music continued to chart and get radio airplay after the incident, which in combination with her successful early 2005 tour and the ratings of the second season of her reality show seemed to contradict predictions that the incident would severely harm her career.
| + | |
| − | -->
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | In early 2005, Simpson's marketing campaign was accused of [[astroturfing]] by users on several websites. A post on [[Metafilter]] claimed that the marketing company posted the same text, which contained the text, "I just read about Ashlee in us weekly. Those guys at the football game were total jerks." (the "football game" referring to the Orange Bowl incident) under the user name "mandyc19" on over three hundred different music-related forums in order to further promote Simpson and paint her in a positive light.{{ref|metafilterastroturf}} This (and possibly other instances) led to a new term, "Ashleeturfing", to describe faux fan raves such as this.{{ref|wiredashleeturfing}}
