icecreamhdaches earlier, and I just wanted to repost it here because I feel it bears repeating:
Can everyone take a step back from bitching about Victoria for a second and consider that this might actually be damage control?
Patrick and Ashlee are under contract with their respective record companies. They are not allowed to work on other people's music for release without consent. If they admit that they were involved, this could get them both in deep shit.
Plus, Pete only said recently that he doesn't want to 'sell' his relationship, so having his girlfriend recording with his best friend and a girl from his record label (even for fun while dicking around on tour or in the studio) isn't doing a whole lot to support that, is it?
People really need to understand that the way you read things in the press is contrived to make a story out of events that really don't warrant it. We don't know the extent to which they were involved because it has come through the MTV spin cycle and the Pete PR blender.
I feel really bad for Victoria, personally. I think Gabe's right and she was just trying to give credit where it was due. People would have been just as harsh to her if it did come out later that Ashlee kind of came up with the chorus while they were joking around on tour, and Vicky-T then put it in the song or something, or if they found out Patrick had made a short sequence while showing her GarageBand and she'd used that, and she hadn't said anything.
Damned if you do, damned if you don't. I'm going to give her the benefit of the doubt, myself.
