Bruce Springsteen forgets where he is

If your act involves shouting "hello [place where you happen to be]", you'd have thought that by now - with so many people slipping up and looking a bit silly - any star would double check his location and make sure he had it written at the top of the set list.

Not the Boss, apparently. How many times during his gig in Michigan did he shout out to the good people of Ohio?

Too many. Eventually, Steve Van Zandt whispered into Bruce's ear to put him right. That must have been awkward, being on stage, wondering if you should correct the boss (The Boss), or if that would be embarrassing, or if it'd be worse if he got off stage and found out what he'd done and asked why you didn't stop him, or...

Make it easy, Bruce: stick to playing New Jersey.

Jessica Simpson: Who knew she was still doing concerts?

It might run in the family, but at least Jessica Simpson's sudden realisation that she's not cut out for singing on stage happened in Michigan rather than on Saturday Night Live. It didn't go well for her:

Simpson is said to have struggled with her in-ear audio monitors throughout the performance and seemed to lose her place in several songs, forgetting the lyrics to her recent single Come on Over.

The star also stopped during the intro to her Pray Out Loud track, asking her band start over, before mouthing the word "sorry" to the crowd, telling the 8,000-strong audience, "My voice is weak tonight."

While introducing her closing song, Do You Know, Simpson admitted wishing she could "walk off the stage" and at the end of the gig, she thanked her band for "having her back", before appearing to walk off in tears.

She did, though, manage to make it through a full thiryt-eight minutes, which is surely great value for money, right?
