Ashlee Simpson Archives

Ashlee Simpson and husband Pete Wentz had a Winnie the Pooh-themed baby shower at Bel-Air Hotel’s Palm Room on Saturday afternoon, reports Star.

Ashlee’s older sister, Jessica, and mom, Tina, hosted the co-ed party, which was had 40 guests.

On the menu was crabcakes, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, jicama salad with grapefruit and a bumble bee-shaped cake.

“The room was decorated with yellow and orange roses, and guests were given jars of honey with custom-made labels that said ‘Baby Wentz’ and ‘Thank You For Celebrating My Life’ on them,” says a party guest. “The girls were also given bracelets that had a big bumble bee on them.

The baby is due any day now!

The race is on to get Ashlee Simpson set up with all the things a new mom needs before her baby arrives.

“She’s having a last-minute baby shower tomorrow,” an insider tells Life & Style. “The location is top secret. They’ll send out an e-mail to all invited guests early Saturday morning. She was eyeing the Bel-Air Hotel in LA — but no one will know exactly until tomorrow morning. This could be the last chance for everyone to see Ashlee before she becomes a mom.”

Husband Pete Wentz recently told Ryan Seacrest: “I am on call permanently right now. She’s at the very end, and it could happen at any point.”

Ashlee Simpson-Wentz and rocker husband Pete Wentz are welcoming a baby this fall… and mom Tina too!

According to Life & Style, Tina Simpson will be moving into the Simpson-Wentz household. A family friend tells the mag, “Her mom, Tina, is going to move in with them for a few days, maybe even a few weeks, to help out after Ash gives birth,”

And how does Pete feel about that? “He’s totally cool with it,” assures the pal. “They get along really well. He’ll probably have his own family in and out, so it’s all good.”

Ashlee Simpson (in Alexander McQueen) arrives at the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards at Paramount Pictures Studios in Los Angeles on Sunday.

Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz are reportedly joining the long celebrity line of having twins!

According to Pete’s hip-hop pal Tyga, “They’re having twins! They’re really happy.”

Pete did initially dispute that the couple was having twins back in June after having referred to the baby as “them”. “That was waaaaay wrong,” says Wentz. “I meant to say ‘the baby’ and said ‘them’ ’cause it was 7 a.m. Not in a BS way: I can tell you we are absolutely not having twins. I totally misspoke ’cause we dunno if it’s a boy or girl. I try to speak vaguely, and I totally blew it on this one.”

So either Tyga is repeating Pete’s slip or it’s really true!

Ashlee would be following the footsteps of Jennifer Lopez, Angelina Jolie, Rebecca Romijn, Julia Roberts and Marcia Cross as bearers of twins.

DO YOU THINK Pete and Ashlee are having twins — YAY or NAY?

Ashlee Simpson just took to her blog to debunk some ridiculous rumors and to talk about how much she loves being pregnant. Here’s what she wrote:

“Today I read on a blog that I went to the doctor and he said I was overweight and I cried and went to Planet Blue (because I was blue) and bought 6 pair of size 0 jeans. Now it is ridiculous to read such nonsense about oneself so I thought I would address this one…

1. My doctor says I am right on target with my weight gain
2. Have not been to Planet Blue in at least two years
3. Love my maternity jeans ..they have stretchy tops it is awesome!
4. My closet full of size 0’s are being worn by [husband Pete Wentz] right now and he looks hot in them :)

So now that I have cleared that up let me tell you…carrying a child is the most inspiring, emotional, amazing experience of my life. My weight and my pant size are the absolute last thing I am concerned about. I am only concerned with having a healthy pregnancy and a healthy baby. People who talk and judge pregnant women’s weight need to get a life!!!

Peace and Love, Ashlee“

Nicole Richie and Ashlee Simpson go shopping together at Barney’s Beverly Hills on Thursday.

Ashlee, 23, will be making an in-store appearance at the Zellers store at Square One, in Mississauga, Canada, on Saturday Aug. 23 for the relaunch of the Request clothing line. Simpson was chosen for the advertising due of her “hip” persona which reflects the brand’s personality, said Geoff Hardwicke, Zellers director of marketing.

Nicole, 26, is now launching a Web site for the charity that she and boyfriend Joel Madden started - the Richie Madden Children’s Foundation.

“The Web site will be a registry, like for a bridal or shower registry, where low-income women list things they need for their babies,” the source said. “More well-off people will then go on and buy stuff for the children,” a source told the NY Daily News.
