Okay, so now we know why she lip syncs. On the other hand, I like her much better as a young Courtney Love than as the Avril Lavine wannabe she seemed to be going for on SNL (I really don't know shit about her). I don't know if she's touring, but if she's gonna "sing" like that every night, she's gonna have problems. Umm... Good luck to her.

Found this in a Sears Catalog called Leather Connection. I know it doesn't look exactly like the President, but what resemblance there is, I find amusing. For all I know this guy might be a Bush. These fuckers are popping up like Kennedys. There's even one co-hosting one of those Entertainment Tonight type shows.

Actually, I think we (The public) may be a little hard on the child, however cowardly her sad, lame excuse was. It's still fun to kick her while she's down, though. That kind'a shit comes with being famous, doesn't it? And those of us non-famous types get to enjoy the crucifiction.
The sound people on the show, however deserve a bit of looking at, too. I vaguely recall reading somewhere a long time ago that they wouldn't tolerate lip-syncing on their program. Apparently that is no longer the case, if it ever was. I do recall that Prince's performance in the early eighties was sync'd to backing music, and might've been lip-sync'd as well.
No-one was ever going to take the Simpson sisters seriously as artists. I don't think this will hurt her too much, in the long run. But we'll see. The reputation of SNL, which whether or not the show itself was decent, was that you could watch actual live music as part of the program, sometimes from artists not neccesarily inclined to, such as rappers who'd sometimes show up with bands, instead of just a DJ. But as mentioned above, there are exceptions.
In the end this is nothing but a welcome distraction from the presidential race. It's fun to watch somebody screw-up, but nothing to take too seriously.
