LeAnn Rimes sings in 'Simlish' for The Sims 3: World Adventures, creeps out loved ones

by Ben Gilbert { Oct 14th 2009 at 8:30PM }

Okay, okay, we're not 100% sure that Ms. Rimes will be creeping out her loved ones by adding her to-be-released track "You've Ruined Me" to The Sims 3's next expansion, World Adventures, but we'll call it an educated guess. Rimes headlines a list of artists found after the break, including a group named Natalie Portman's Shaved Head, who will appear in the expansion singing original songs in the game's fictional language -- "Simlish."

The country/pop singer will be offering a rendition of an unreleased track said to be the lead on her upcoming album. Unfortunately, given the nature of "Simlish" (it's untranslatable), fans hoping for the chance to hear the unreleased track early when the expansion launches this November will be out of luck. Unless they're into gibberish languages, that is.

This article does not rhyme...strange.

ripslymemc @ Oct 14th 2009 8:52PM

imagine if lil wayne was asked to "sing" in simlish...

I'd probably die of laughter.

Ignatius @ Oct 14th 2009 9:18PM

Doesn't he already sing in Simlish?

If you can call it singing to begin with.

mortegro545 @ Oct 14th 2009 9:04PM

You LeAnne! I'm gona let you get back to singing, but I gotta say that The sims Makin' Magic is the best expansion for the Sims!"

I saw that photo and for some reason thought someone was remaking the The Dagger of Amon Ra: A Laura Bow Mystery

Of course, From Software would have to make it to account for the EXCRUCIATING DIFFICULTY.

Am i the only one to have found all these famous artists doing renditions of their songs in "simlish" somewhat amusing?

I heard Katy Perry's Hot and Cold in a department store and all I could think of is the simlish version playing in my head.

She's a homewrecker. Boycott sims 3!

This game is super addicting and will take my life.

Natalie Portman's Shaved Head is a good band. Saw them live once and they are hilarious. It's mostly dancey stuff - tongue-in-throat 80s party jams.

This is way too lame.

Sidebuster @ Oct 15th 2009 10:40AM

I am not excited at all for this expansion. I see where they are trying to go with the game though. I would have rather had a supernatural (or eve supranatural, it's like a whole other level of supernatural).
