Ashlee Simpson sang, without backup tracks or incident on "Saturday Night Live" in her return to the scene of last year's lip-synch fiasco. Jessica Simpson's little sister belted out the song "Catch Me When I Fall", the only boost seeming to come with a brief echo effect on her vocal in the chorus. When she was done, Simpson smiled and hopped in relief. It was nearly a year after Simpson's embarrassing appearance on the same stage, where her voice was heard singing the wrong song when she held her microphone at her waist. The 21-year-old danced an awkward jig and then walked off the stage.
