Actually, she made her national debut on 7th heaven, and shoved her singing down everyone's throat by getting her show on MTV since she was on 7th heaven. But my point was that SNL does not have to have someone just because they were on MTV, and that show has 0 affiliation with MTV.

Alecia Keys sings her own songs...usually. She plays the piano....at the same level as those who have had lessons for a few years. She writes her songs....with some help. I agree that Alecia Keys has a fantastic voice...so does Christina Agulera... so does Ashlee Simpson. People as a rule don't know what musical talent is anymore. At least on MTV. Deal with it and move on.

Wait wait wait... you think Ashlee has a "fantasic voice"? Are you serious? You have to be just trolling to try and make me upset, there is no way you can believe that screaming into a microphone for cookie cutter teeniebop songs can be considered "fantastic". If you seriously think her voice is as good as the other people you mentioned, you... no, you're just wrong. It's not even an opinion, you are flat out wrong. I'm a vocal performance major in college, trust me, I know what constitues talented singing and a fantastic voice. She screams. Notice how she ALWAYS has a sore throat and a messed up voice? That isn't a coincidence. Did you even watch her show? Perhaps the episode where she was recording her album, and she couldn't even sing her song
in the studio? You've gotta be joking. And no, i'm not going to "deal with it and move on". It's my life passion, maybe something you don't understand. I can make more musical tones come out of my ass, where's my contract and millions of dollars?
As far as Alicia Keys goes, where do you get YOUR information? As far as I can tell, from her website/other websites, she writes all her own stuff. You do not realize how hard it is to sing and play the piano as well as she does.

She started piano at age 7. She was classically trained, including the study of Bach, Mozart, Chopin (her favorite composer). She has sung most of her life, and played the piano most of her life. She writes all her own music. So, I gave a source that told about her life, where are the support of these "facts" you stated, or did you just assume to try to defend yourself? Come on.
I really want to know if you think Ashlee Simpson has the same musical talent of someone that attended the Performing Arts School of Manhattan, and has dedicated her life to music. Ashlee was probably singing (read: screaming) in the shower one day after 7th heaven and heard Britney on her stupid radio and was like HEY! I sing like crap and am hot too! Surely I can get a contract!
That entire side of the industry makes me sick. So do the people who support the crap. I don't care who you blame it on, it isn't right.
