I Am Me

I Am Me is the second album by singer Ashlee Simpson. The first single from the album is "Boyfriend," which Simpson has denied is about her alleged affair with Lindsay Lohan's ex-boyfriend, Wilmer Valderrama. Initially, the first single was planned to be "L.O.V.E.", and the album was originally titled In Another Life. It is set for release on October 18, 2005 (see 2005 in music).

"Beautifully Broken" is said to deal with Simpson's Saturday Night Live incident. "L.O.V.E." is about girls going out and having fun without needing any guys.

Simpson worked with John Shanks and Kara DioGuardi on this album, as she did on her first album, 2004's Autobiography. I Am Me is said to be similar in sound to her first album, http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1506955/20050804/story.jhtml although Simpson has said that she wanted to incorporate more of the feel of 1980s music, which she enjoys; furthermore, she has said that while Autobiography dealt mainly with her relationships, I Am Me will be more about herself. http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1499052/20050325/simpson_ashlee.jhtml?headlines=true
