Ashlee Simpson - Autobiography (w/ Janet McNamara)

from Make it Stop: A Bad Music Podcast · host Heather Mack; Mike Dunn

Raised in her sister's shadow and shunned and ridiculed by the public, Ashlee Simpson was put through a lot for a 19 year old. Her public image took a massive hit following a disastrous SNL lip synching gaffe, leading to a number of hit pieces, a high level of media scrutiny, and the merciless booing of her performance at the Orange Bowl. Was she really that bad? Did she deserve to be dragged through the mud? Local comedian and infamous American Idol alum Janet McNamara (seriously, look it up) doesn't think so. This episode finds Heather and Mike butting heads with their guest, who just may be the most devoted living Ashlee Simpson fan. We dive into her 2003 debut Autobiography, in which she tried to set herself apart from her bubble gum sister with transgressive elements including references to pet play, breathy pseudo-Courtney Love moans, and - gasp - electric guitars!?!?!? It's enough to make any pop aficionado's head spin. Make it Stop is proud to be part of the Pantheon Podcast Network! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
