Simone
Simone burst into the public consciousness in 2011 with her self-titled debut album. Critics praised it for Simone's crystal clear soprano, in particular the contrast between it and the grittier rock stylings it was overlaid on. Commercially, it was also a success, with two of the songs (and the album itself) charting. Even now, the local alternative stations will sometimes play "By the Water" or "Don't Wait Up," her two hits. Then things started to go bad. There were rumors of an affair, a breakup, and drug use. Tabloids loved it, and the deeper Simone sunk, they more they ate it up. Just a few years after her hit debut, the main thing she was known for was stumbling drunkenly down the red carpet, vomiting in the street at 9 AM, and pissing herself during a show. There was a stint in rehab in 2014, but it didn't seem to amount to much. The next year, she released a second album, Because It's There. She must have been high for the entire recording, because it was absolutely terrible. The songwriting was lazy, the lyrics were awful, and Simone's once crystalline voice was a raspy mess. Her record label dropped her. She's known to have returned to Prospect, where she was born and raised. And although she hasn't recently done anything worthy of the gossip sites, it's only a matter of time before she humiliates herself again. |
