Twins seem particularly popular in Hollywood today, so much so that Pete Wentz got confused about how many babies Ashlee Simpson actually has inside of her.
Speaking on the John Jay and Rich radio show in Pheonix on Thursday morning (June 12), Wentz talked about a scrapbook the couple are keeping for their newborn saying, “We’ve been keeping a book so far, like a journal for them when their born.”
The comment lit up the gossip pages with news that the newly married couple are expecting twins, however, Wentz has explained to Perez Hilton that it was all a misunderstanding.
“That was waaaaay wrong. I meant to say ‘the baby’ and said ‘them’ cos it was 7 am. Not in a bs way: I can tell you we are absolutely not having twins. I totally misspoke coz we dunno if it’s a boy or girl. I try to speak vaguely and I totally blew it on this one.”
Pete has, of course, lied in the past in regards to this pregnancy, saying flat out that Ashlee wasn’t pregnant, so it could be she’s going to pop out some twins – and when I say pop them out I actually mean ‘pimp them out to the highest bidder for the magazine exclusive’.
It might also be true that Pete was confused too. When I was pregnant I didn’t want to know the gender of the baby, but hated to call it ‘it’. People think it’s a little horrible when you do that. Of course, it’s even worse when you continue to do it several months into the child’s life, but maybe if I could get a decent night’s sleep I could remember your name/gender. Enjoy parenthood, Ashlee and Pete!
I also think it’s a little unusual for Pete to the mistake twice, and not correct himself. He said ‘them’ and ‘they’, but it is possible he means that they will do it for their future children also. Or he’s trying to generate more interest in the pregnancy. Or he’s just a little bit confused, as are we all Pete, by everything that comes out of your mouth.
Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz are shown outside a medical building in LA yesterday, thanks to WENN.
Of course she’s not having twins. She’s supposedly due in October, yet she’s barely got a beer belly working. I say “supposedly” because I’m not convinced she IS due that early – I’m due a month later and I’m obviously pregnant. And I’m a little person like Ashlee.
Can I ask a question? At this point…arent she and her sister more tabloid stars than actual stars? Do we really need to read about has beens that lip synched and are now having a child ? Jessica was “eh” until Newlyweds…. she forgets that…Assl…sorry Ashlee… is more famous for a nose job and a lip synch than music…. in the words of Ms Jackson…WHAT HAVE YOU DONE FOR ME ME LATELY? I dunno. Maybe its PMS. But I am not even interested in the Simpsons even being spoken about anymore.
We can all let out that breath we were holding.
Seriously though, if I don’t know the gender of someone, I will say they or them.
That’s an easy mistake. People say “they” “their” and “them” all the time when they don’t know the gender, as opposed to “it” and “it’s”.
“It’s” and honest mistake.
i’d say thats an honest mistake.
yeah, i agree … why are fuglee simpson and her retarded husband in the news at all? i am so sick of these two talentless wastes of space i could scream. please just go away.
God I hope she isn’t having twins! There isn’t enough eyeliner in the world to go around if that happens!
Twins are much more common in moms over 35, so I also doubt she’s having more than one.
Plus, she looks happy and not incredibly sick… twin pregnancies tend to lead to enhanced morning sickness. Ask me how I know. 🙂
Well why not, all the cool people are doing it. 😆
No twins? How incredibly un-hip of
her!
no twins for the chins? good. i don’t think she can handle one, much less 2…
