What's the big deal about Ashlee not being able to sing?

Why is it such a big deal? People didn't boo Johnny Rotten because he couldn't sing, and Ashlee is clearly our generation's Johnny Rotten (she would be Sid Vicious, but Avirl Lavigne has already procclaimed herself our generation's Sid). Why the double standard?

If I couldn't sing, and I was caught in the act of not singing, I wouldn't blame it on the band.

And then I wouldn't blame it on acid reflux.
 
But Ashlee doesn't sing MOR ballads or blue-eyed soul. She doesn't need a 5 octave range. She sings PUNK RAWK. Ashlee really is the epitome of punk, ironically.

Mischievous shoppers reduced Ashlee Simpson to tears during a recent clothes store visit, the National Enquirer reports this week.

The 'Pieces of Me' singer was apparently out shopping with two friends at a Melrose Avenue boutique when the hecklers struck.

Simpson stood "paralysed" as the gaggle of female teens hurled insults such as "you're a faker!" and "you have no talent, Ashlee... and you're not as pretty as your sister!"

As her female buddies escorted her from the store, a teary Ashlee was heard to remark: "I don't know if I can take much more of this... it sucks... it really sucks."


Hurrah!

When she whined about 'acid reflux' being the reason for her horrible singing, I had flashbacks to my middle school gym days and the pathetic excuses I'd conjure up to get out of physical activity...

I think the problem is that she's singing sugar-coated punk pop music. Such an audience demands good vocals. It's punk for 15 year olds who don't want to listen to the real thing.

well not really...yet
I think the problem is she fucking suck ass, offensively so I might add. And its horrific to see how a stupid TV show can brainwash millions into paying for this shit.

Not that I expect better.

People don't like seeing the behind the curtain. We all know that a lot of singers today enhance their vocals, we just don't want to know about it. We don't want to admit we were duped when the truth comes out. I mean did everyone think Milli Vanilli had a team of vocal coaches grilling them and they only realized they forgot to teach them to dance after they started to move on stage.
