One thing she's not short of is excuses:
ASHLEE HITS BACK AT BOO BOWL INCIDENT
Ashlee Simpson has fired back at college football fans who booed her Orange Bowl half-time performance last week, saying she's sure it has nothing to do with how bad she was.
Simpson howled her way through her hit "La La" as part of the Miami half-time show that also featured "American Idol" star Kelly Clarkson and country star Trace Adkins.
She was booed by the 72,000-strong Pro Player Stadium crowd as she left the stage -- but she's convinced Oklahoma fans were simply being critical because she was supporting rivals University of Southern California.
She says, "I was facing the Oklahoma Sooners, and I was rooting for USC, and they played a clip of it, so maybe it was that those people didn't like. You never know. But I can't make everybody happy.
"Maybe they were booing at me, maybe they were booing at the half-time show because the whole thing sucked. If they didn't like the performance, and that's what it was about, then sorry to them.
"There were no ear monitors when we went onstage, no floor monitors. And trying to sing in a stadium where you can't hear yourself is kinda hard."
