It's a fine line between genius and insanity, and this could be the thing that crosses that line. In what must be one of the strangest and most surprising pairings in music history, Goth Legend, MTV Icon and The Cure front man Robert Smith, has hooked-up with pop-ette Ashlee Simpson to work on her new album. Apparently, the unlikely pair became friends whilst she was in Chicago, for a performance. Smith will be singing with Simpson on a track on her follow-up album to 2005's offering I Am Me Other famous artists to collaborate on Ashlee's new album are: Chad Hugo from The Neptunes, John Legend and Tim Rice-Oxley from Keane
