Ashlee Simpson Postpones Summer Tour



Just days after confirming her pregnancy, Ashlee Simpson has postponed her summer tour.
“After careful consideration, Ashlee Simpson has decided to postpone her summer tour,” the singer’s publicist said in a statement Saturday. “She is committed to giving her fans the best show possible, and will be back better than ever and ready to rock in the future.”

Meanwhile, the new Mrs. Wentz was in Vegas with her parents and husband for the Palms Place grand opening party where Wentz was spinning.

Playing “Power of Love,” Wentz said into the microphone, “This is dedicated to my father in law Joe Simpson. I definitely have the power of love for you.”

He later dedicated a song to his “baby momma,” who was sitting in VIP with her mom drinking water.

Well, well, well. After over a month of speculation and playing coy with us, Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz have confirmed that they are expecting their first child. They posted this official statement on Pete's site, Friends Or Enemies:

Ashlee Simpson Becomes Ashlee Wentz


Newly married Ashlee Simpson is changing her name to Ashlee Wentz in honor of her husband, Fall Out Boy Pete Wentz.

“I think that that’s something that a woman should do when they’re marrying a man,” she said. “It’s a tradition that I think is a great tradition.”

The singer, whose May 17 wedding featured an Alice in Wonderland-themed reception, says that privately she’ll go by Ashlee Wentz and professionally she’ll be Ashlee Simpson-Wentz.

Pete Wentz says he left the name change decision to his wife. “These decisions with Ashlee and her name are all completely up to Ashlee,” Wentz says. “I want her to do these kinds of things the way she wants to do them.”

Still, he admits, he was flattered. “Oh man, I was like upgrade me! You know what I’m saying? The Wentz family, our Christmas card just got upgraded!” he says. “It feels insane. It feels unreal.”

Ashlee and Pete is Back From the Honeymoon



Newlyweds Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz arrived in New York City Thursday after honeymooning in the Turks and Caicos.

The couple, who were married on Saturday at Simpson’s parents home in Encino, CA, spent their first night as husband and wife in a safari tent on the property before leaving for their honeymoon.

The day after the wedding, Wentz said, “We are going to a very, very, very, very private island so that the paparazzi can’t follow us.”

The couple’s rep confirms that Wentz is in New York City for business. Sources say the pair are also expected at a private party in the city.

Simpson’s sister Jessica, who served as maid of honor at the wedding, arrived home in Los Angeles Thursday night after vacationing with her parents in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.

Ashlee Simpson & Pete Wentz's Carribean Honeymoon



Yep, Pete Wentz is a liar, the newlyweds didn't spend their honeymoon in their basement after all. Pete told Ryan Seacrest that he and Ashlee Simpson were hiding out at home, "eating DiGiorno's pizza," to "save that 30 grand" days after their wedding.

The truth was they were enjoying the Caribbean Sun. The pregnant singer (in a bikini!) and the shirtless Fall Out Boy rocker were photographed swimming Thursday. The newlyweds are now in New York City, where Wentz is expected to play a private Fall Out Boy show for a Sweet 16 party, New York's Daily News reports.

The couple can't keep quiet about how happy they are."I feel great!" Wentz told Seacrest. "It is sunny and 65 in my head." In the interview, Wentz continued to play coy about Simpson's pregnancy. "Ryan, this baby has not been confirmed," he said. "The only thing I'm confirming now is that we're in the basement on our honeymoon with these blow-up palm trees."
So by all means if Pete is such a big liar that means that Ashlee is actually pregnant as it was reported!! Why can’t celebrity just say things like they are!!? Of course they can be desperate for publicity… too bad their wedding was only sold by $1.3 million!

Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz Got Married




Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz were married Saturday evening in an intimate ceremony, their spokesperson said.

“We’re delighted to confirm that Pete Wentz and Ashlee Simpson were married this evening in front of family and close friends,” said the spokesperson.

Simpson, 23, wore an ivory lace wedding gown by Monique Lhuillier and jewels by William Noble as she and Wentz, 28, exchanged vows in front of 150 guests at her parents’ Los Angeles area home.

Dad Joe Simpson performed the non-denominational ceremony, while sister Jessica served as maid of honor. Wentz’s English bulldog, Hemingway, was the ring-bearer. Guests included Jessica’s boyfriend, Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo, Nicole Richie and Joel Madden, as well as actor Donald Faison with girlfriend CaCee Cobb.

Simpson said on Friday that she was never the type to dream about her wedding when she was growing up, but changed her tune once she got engaged. “Now that I’m doing it, I definitely have that big dream. It kind of went more fairytale than I thought. I got really into it.” Added Wentz, “She has this amazing imagination and to watch it take place is an awesome thing.”

With the help of wedding planner Mindy Weiss, Simpson got her dream nuptials: The Alice in Wonderland themed reception featured a wedding cake by Sam Godfrey of Perfect Endings with a top hat, tea pot, stop watch and a pot of flowers on top. The elaborate centerpieces of black beauty roses were by Mark’s Garden. Guests were served Rose Veuve Clicquot champagne followed by a sit-down dinner and dancing to a deejay.

Simpson, who sources say is pregnant with the couple’s first child, and Wentz, the bassist for Fall Out Boy, have been linked since the fall of 2006, when they were spotted kissing at a New York nightclub. They announced their engagement last month.

“He’s a cutie,” Simpson said last year. “He has an awesome personality and kind of brings out the best of me and I knew that even before we were dating. There was just like an awesome connection we had.”

After they’d been dating almost a year, Wentz said, “We’re past the honeymoon period. The truth is, it’s crazy to be able to kiss your best friend. It’s just a really awesome thing.”

ASHLEE SIMPSON REFUSES TO CONFIRM OR DENY THE PREGNANCY RUMORS



Ashlee Simpson is now more into the spotlight for her personal life just before the release of her new album Bittersweet World. Isn’t that just typical! There was little to no interest for the singer until now with her recent engagement announcement with Fall Out Boy boyfriend Pete Wentz and a pregnancy speculation that is all around them right now, too.

The 23-year-old star Ashlee Simpson has declined to directly answer questions about whether or not she is expecting a baby when she was asked about the rumours on MTV’s TRL.

I just think it’s an inappropriate question to ask any woman. For me, that’s something that I didn’t ever want to respond to, because I think it’s an inappropriate question. Some things, you want to keep personal, and I think that when people deny [pregnancy reports], it’s probably because it’s something they want to keep personal.
- said Ashlee Simpson on MTV’s TRL -

Yes, we are thrilled to share that we are happily engaged. Thank you for all of your support and well wishes - it means the world to us!

She's the daughter of Joe and Tina Simpson, and the younger sister of pop star/reality TV queen Jessica Simpson. Attending Prairie Creek Elementary School, Ashlee's talent was apparent early on: At age 4 she started dancing, and by the time she was 11, she was the youngest person to ever be admitted to the prestigious School of American Ballet.

When Ashlee Simpson was 14, she began to dance professionally, and the Simpson family moved to Los Angeles. Not long after, Ashlee went on the road, dancing as part of her sister's stage show.
