The Official Jessica Simpson Thread
 
I predict this thread will die shortly after it's posted. It may not even have a life. If so, I predict a closing due to an excess of bashing, so while it is tempting to bash her, I know (I had to restrain myself a few times when writing this thread), I wanna see how long it'll last on its own merit without having to be closed, so keep the bashing in check, okay?

We all know her. Many of us hate her. I guess some love her, Apparently right now this is around 10,000 people, which is more than I can say even know me.

And so we shall discuss her. I'll start.

I... honestly can't stand her. She used to be able to sing (not well - she got screamy - but at least she showed she could do more than breathe and moan all over every track). She used to seem like a sweet, pleasant girl - and while I know people grow up, she seems to have grown up into... I dunno. Something unpleasant.

That being said? I do like her new album more than I really thought I would. Some tracks (Push Your Tush) are annoying as hell, but overall it's catchy. I just wish it didn't feel so calculated. I also hate the title track - a rip-off of Madonna's Holiday.

I may buy it eventually.

I just wish I could stomach Jessica herself, but maybe there'll be hope for her eventually.

In regards to the album's performance, though, it seems to have fallen out of the top 100 after only three weeks, if I'm reading right. lol jessica (eww, I just said "lol")

I haven't got her album, and I'm not going to. Not because of her, but it's just that I have never buy any western CDs except for Spice Girls & Diana Krall.

However though, I really like "a Public Affair". Actually, I'm very, YES very, surprised to know that that is her song. O_O
Her past releases didn't interest me, but this one is so catchy.

I planned buying her CD after the awesome title track came out. Then the whole ruse concerning "I Belong To Me" came out and made me annoyed that the second single wasn't on the CD. And then they decided to eventually add it on the CD. Now I don't give a damn because the song really dissapointed me.

Her habit to over-sing some songs annoy me a lot, especially on tracks like "Angels" and "Take My Breath Away". Those were very bad.

On the bright side, she has some decent songs in her career: "These Boots Are made For Walking", "With You", "Irresistable", "Forbidden Fruit", "A Public Affair".

I really like A Public Afair (It's really catchy!) but her voice at the start of the song doesn't sound like hers at all! I thought it was a guy's voice...

It's a real pity about her sales. I reckon she should've stayed with Nick Lachey if that could have been helped. In Australia you don't hear a thing about her, but Nick's song is everywhere...

Mad_Cactuar 27th September 2006 04:52 PM

^ This album is selling very good though so far with only 1 single. When "I Belong To Me" gets released, I cant bet the album re-enters the Top 50 at least.

What do you guys think about A Pubic Affair PV?

I really love its retro-ness. <33

Although I don't like her and probably never will, I did like that video due to the fact that it made me laugh and that's because Andy **** made a cameo.:D He's one of my fave comedians:)

Because I CAN. Like P!nk said (I'd say "Pink" but apparently the woman wants to spell her name as "P!nk". Okay then. But ANYWAY).

I do tend to like her albums, even if she either oversings or undersings them. I'm not sure she'll ever find much of a good balance between either, in that respect. Sweet Kisses had good stuff like I Wanna Love You Forever, I Think I'm In Love With You (one of my favorites of hers), Final Heartbreak (I seem to be the only person on earth who loves this song), Betcha She Don't Love You, and Your Faith In Me (which definitely has one of her best vocals ever. Too bad she doesn't even try for that anymore).

I'm also fond of For Your Love, A Little Bit, There You Were (as corny and sappy as it is), With You, Every Day See You, Be, and a few others I can't recall right now.

I do like her music for the most part. But her as a person? That's another story altogether.

cybermoomba 28th September 2006 05:38 AM

Because you can? lol :bgiggle Good enough

You're really good at explaining things

Nu-NRG 28th September 2006 06:19 AM

I like the song she did with Nick Lachey...forgot what's the name of it but that song is really nice...I preferred her older ones though
her new one "A Public Affair" sounds like something Paris Hilton would sing heh

Ok,i used to be a huge Jessica fan up to and including "In This Skin" but i dont know why maybe because of over exposure but i just don't like her anymore.
