Apple debuts iPod Ashlee Simpson Karaoke Edition?

“Like no other, iPod Ashlee Simpson Karaoke Edition stands out. Virgin white, it features the new Apple Fast-Forward Click Button and, on the flip side, complete how to use instructions. Available for just $349, it comes with enough money to use a pay phone for calling your daddy, your agent or both, when you get caught lip syncing live on national television. We have also included some Kleenex for those special times when your entire fan base realizes your nothing but a talentless hack.”

“Unlike other members of the iPod family, iPod Ashlee Simpson Karaoke Edition makes lip syncing to music sheer delight. Taking a cue from our one-button computer mice, we have eliminated the confusion of five buttons and trimmed it down to a fast-forward. Just click the large button and you’re on to the next song! And you can certainly keep plenty of your music on this 20GB iPod. In fact, after purchasing and downloading ‘The Complete Ashlee Simpson,’ you’ll still have enough room for as many as 4,996 other songs.”

  1. “Use it with Mac OS X, Windows 2000/XP, Sony’s My First Computer”
    That’s hilarious! That site has been going after Ashley Simpson with a vengeance. Serves her right, I suppose.

  2. How come it takes a gaffe on nationwide tv to find out she is a talentless hack?

    Second question. If she is a talentless hack for lipsyncing how come it is OK for all these rap groups to do the same when they make TV appearances?

    Strange fact from history: MTV got its start by actually playing music videos!

  3. MTV played music videos? Wow. Just kidding. I grew up with MTV back in the 80’s. Not only did they play videos, they played rock videos. Rap artists always complained because their stuff wasn’t on MTV. My how the times have changed.

  4. As said above it’s not as if any other “rock” or “pop” star doesn’t lip sync on tv or in concerts. You’d think this was a major new development. Many of today’s “artists” are production-based on their recordings and visually over the top in their concert appearances to make the audience forget that they are talentless. They should make the most of their 20 minutes!

  5. The only act I’ve seen on SNL that hasn’t lip-sync’d their songs in the past couple of years were the White Stripes. Exposure on TV is much too important for a lot of ‘bands’ to mess up by having no actual talent without ProTools…

  6. That was even better than Joy of Tech’s iPod William Hung!

    I remember once when I used to be in a touring rock band and all three of us who sang had laryngitis. This would have been great!

  7. “how come it is OK for all these rap groups to do the same when they make TV appearances?”

    Are there other singers/bands that have been lipsynking on SNL?

    Is Windows is just lipsynking what the Mac does?

  8. Who the hell is Ashlee Simpson anyway? This would be a lot funnier if I had a clue why it’s supposed to be funny. Let me guess: some big-brained music fans figured out that some big-name “music” stars actually have No Musical Talent.

    Boy that’s insightful! What are they going to suddenly realize next, that the most stridently vocal champions of democracy and liberty have no particular interest in supporting either? Well, that’s the sort of brilliance that keeps me coming back here to MDN day in and day out.

  9. Really, there should be an iPod that supports mp3+G. With the video out, you could run an entire Karaoke show with nothing more than an iPod. You can do it now with a laptop, but only with Windoze.
