ASHLEE SIMPSON - SIMPSON TO ADDRESS LIP-SYNCH SCANDAL ON NEW ALBUM

ASHLEE SIMPSON has decided to pen a song about the scandal surrounding her lip-syncing on SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE last year (05).

The PIECES OF ME singer, who is currently hard at work on the follow up to her debut album AUTOBIOGRAPHY, has written a song called BEAUTIFULLY BROKEN, which depicts Simpson's ordeal after she was caught using a backing track on the live comedy show.

She says, "Everything connects to what I've been through in the past year. The song is about it's okay to mess up, that it's okay to do bad. It's very normal, actually."

Simpson, 20, also plans to show fans a more mature side in her new release.

She adds, "I've been through a lot since I put my first album out. It's where I'm at in my life."
