Over 30,000 (and counting) disgruntled music fans have signed an
online petition demanding an end to Ashley Simpson's career. The petition, addressed to Geffen, DGC Records and JT Simpson Entertainment, states:
We, the undersigned, are disgusted with Ashlee Simpson's horrible singing and hereby ask her to stop. Stop recording, touring, modeling and performing.
We do not wish to see her again. She cannot match the sound of her voice that can be found on her CDs, when she sings live.
She simply yells the words (sometimes the wrong ones) into the mic. We are so sickened by her "performing" that we are taking this opportunity to demand that she stop.
While Bethany Decker, the creator of the petition, deserves kudos for her novel approach, she should have addressed it to MTV as well.
