I just watched / heard the Ashlee Simpson debacle on iFilm…good lord. I guess my only comment is that the saddest part about the whole thing is there’s clearly someone in her camp very close to her assuring her that she is, in fact, talented and deserving of attention and praise. Which, clear as vodka, she’s not – though in all fairness I think most of us have willingly entertained our own personal Iagos, especially at her age. I have $20 that says it’s her manager / pimp / “father” Joe Simpson. God, is he creepy or what? There’s no doubt in my mind he was hitting on Jessica’s friends when she was 15. Hell, I bet he was hitting on Ashlee’s friends when Jessica was 15.
