Ashlee Simpson-Ross experienced an “insane” level of “bullying” after her infamous performance on Saturday Night Live.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Ashlee Simpson-Ross faced a backlash after her 2004 SNL performance<\/p>\n
The 40-year-old singer became the first musician to walk out of a performance on SNL back in 2004 when her single Pieces of Me incorrectly began to play before she raised her microphone to perform Autobiography, sparking a huge backlash.<\/p>\n
And Ashlee – who returned to the show before the credits rolled to try and explain her decision to lip sync was due to a flare-up of acid reflux – isn’t sure she’d have faced the same level of criticism if something similar happened today.<\/p>\n
Speaking on Pod Meets World, she said: “I think it’s a different era … I think during that time, I mean, the bullying was insane.”<\/p>\n
Ashlee has felt the need to repeatedly explain herself to people.<\/p>\n
\nShe said: \u201cBut then my whole life, I had to tell people, \u2018Oh, but I perform every night.’ My fans know. I had to know that in my heart.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cYes, I’ve had ups and downs just like every other human.”<\/p>\n
\nThe former Melrose Place actress – who has Bronx, 15, with ex-husband Pete Wentz and Jagger, eight, and Ziggy, three, with spouse Evan Ross – thinks the way the internet responds to public mistakes has evolved “but also it hasn’t in some ways”.<\/p>\n
\nShe added: \u201cI think it’s different now. For us, we had the magazines and this. Now everything’s kinda more fleeting.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nAt the time, the SNL backlash felt like it was on her “shoulders forever”.<\/p>\n
\nBut she added: \u201cAnd I think now everything is, like, a little bit more fleeting and fast.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nAshlee has previously spoken of how “cruel” the world felt in the wake of the SNL ridicule.<\/p>\n
