Well, it's the time of the year for bowl games, the most significant of them all being the Orange Bowl (at least this year). I had nothing better to do on a weeknight, so I watched the game. USC has all but clinched the game by the end of the half, but I could honestly care less. After sitting through some more analyzation about obscure players that I didn't give a crap about, it was time for the halftime show. "Finally," I thought to myself. Something HAS to happen.
The first act was Kelly Clarkson, who sang "Since You Been Gone" or whatever the hell it's called. She had a backing track - who doesn't? But it was one of the obvious showings of the backing track when the actual singer sings differently; song note goes up, she goes down. Blah.
Next was some country singer. I'm sure many Yellowcard fans went "ZOMG a violinist he's like that guy from yellowcard omgomgomg" to the showing of the violinist. I wasn't paying attention to the singer's name; I was too busy saying yes to my mom yelling at me about how my homework was "too short".
Finally, the final, most anticipated act came: Ashlee Simpson. She's bad already, but she's even worse live. I think she had acid reflux again and tried to sing through it. She cannot sing live. The backing track sounded better than her, but you couldn't really hear it over the scratchiness of her voice. Nothing persuasive happened. Wait. What? No boob slips, no lip-synching, no trip-and-fall? Damn. You're telling me I sat through 3 minutes of a cat scratching its damn claws on the chalkboard and nothing INTERESTING happens? Thank God I didn't pay money for it.
The highlight was everyone booing Ashlee. That was hilarious.
