Remember that day this year when Robert Smith broke your heart? No, not that day. That day. Well boys (and girls), don't cry! It's all over. Sorta.
Via Billboard:
"I would be hugely surprised if I end up working with Ashlee this year, but I haven't ruled it out," he tells Billboard.com. "I went to see her in Chicago. We have people we both know, and I have some nephews and nieces who think she's really good. I was impressed. The fact is, when she got on stage and sang, she was really good."
"It was staggering the amount of coverage that got," Smith adds. "I was encouraged to issue a denial, but I thought, why? I don't deny anything. I don't see the point. I've worked with lots of different people down the years."
The point is ... actually, ya know what? That's cool. This is good enough. Although, that "New Ashlee Simpson (Feat. Robert Smith)" post's comment thread would have been priceless. Our stock photos of Ashlee and Robert, post-enhancement.
