Okay, I really can’t imagine that this is true, but The Sun is reporting that Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz will ask John Mayer to be the godfather for their baby.
Apparently Pete and John have become friends. But if you were Ashlee, wouldn’t you insist that John COULDN’T be the godfather? I’m sure he’s a peachy keen guy and all, but to have him be a quasi-part part of the Simpson family forever and forever would be rather uncomfortable for Jessica, wouldn’t it? And I’m sure there are plenty of other perfectly acceptable prospects to ask?
The Sun adds that “they are holding back asking him at the moment because they are not sure how Ashlee’s sister Jessica would feel about her ex having such a strong link to her new niece.”
Uh…. yeah. Ya think?
Maybe all this talk about babies is pushing John towards the married life himself. One report says he and Jen Aniston will have a “trial marriage” of sorts. (Which means they’ll be moving in together.) Apparently he’s been telling her “she’s the one” (and wasn’t Jen in a movie by that name?) and that he wants her to move into his bachelor pad after his current tour (which ends in September.) Is it just me or is it hard to believe these two are really a couple?
On a completely different note – John IS looking much better with his new haircut.


well, he is good friends with Pete, right? And He knows ash pretty good ’cause he dated Jess, and who dates Jess dates her family…
As far as the haircut, it only make him look younger. I love Jennifer, I really don’t see what she sees in him ( Well, I actually do =P ) But appart from THAT, does she fancy playing mummy? ’cause he seems such a boy, the way he acts with the press, the blogs he write everything…
And godfather…Hum…I am sure Jess is willin’ to take one for the family if that is what makes ash and pete happy.Actually I believe the one with a problem might be Jennifer Aniston. I mean Jessica was the girl he dated the longer and publicly spoke of, and then there’s that best life interview where he says he has loved her, etc…
I know I did not want MY man into THAT family..
Well see … I believe jess has it all figure it out with John. Pete is very close and ash also, and I believe Ash will not tag along Pete to John concerts if that would hurt Jess. And he did come out and deffended her on his blog around the time of the jinx buzz, so he problably made his peace with Jess and jess just let him be…
To be honest the simple fact that John is alreaddy involved with the Simpson family is already hard to understand…Maybe it’s just I , who are short – eyed

I get what you’re saying. But I still think it’s a bad idea all around. Here you’ve got your ex at b’day parties and stuff for the kid. It’s weird. And it doesn’t need to be that way. Ash and Pete can still have John be an active part of the baby’s life, but he doesn’t have to be the godfather.
You’re right on the money with Jen, too! I wouldn’t want my boyfriend being godfather to his ex’s family.

On her relationship with John Mayer:
“John believed in the Jessica Simpson that’s within. He cherished our love. He helped make me the woman I am today. John is going to be an amazing man for someone, but I know that I was supposed to be with someone else.” = from ELLE mag
this I was NOT expecting. Always tought of John as a jerk. not a jerk. I knew Jess had closed that chapter, but didn’t saw this comin’…
It is quite cute and sweet. Nice to know John is a lesson learn and that the respect remains…
About the abuse that she talks about -
On recording a song about abuse:
“I had to record that. There’s nothing on my album that you’re gonna hear that I don’t relate to or that I haven’t experienced. Because the only way I know how to sing is from life experience. I don’t want to talk about it, but I have definitely experienced abuse in a way that I would tell people to take their heart and run.”
( I tought it was about John being a jerk. I have no idea now. Someone is talking about a black eye she had in 2005. I don’t recall. And this finger pointing is makin’ me mad….and sad)

Ritovskyta: I hope Jessica didn’t really experience abuse. But I always have to wonder with her because she does do things for attention. So who knows.
On John – yeah, I’m with you. I did think of him as kind of a jerk.

That she pretend to be abused and wasn’t???!!! this I just do not buy!!!
If she use things for attention, she would have used her divorce and spill the beans on every mag. she didn’t. She talks a LOT. But she doesn’t really say much. that means, she really does keep the private, private….
That’s just me. I believe this is one point we DO indeed trully disagree upon

Ritovskyta: I think we do disagree.
That’s okay, though, because I really appreciate your perspective! I like hearing what you have to say.

Okay, sorry but the thing through out the entire article that struck me was Jessica having a neice. So Ash is having a girl?!

Jessica: That’s the latest rumor. One source said their doctor indicated that the future is “looking pink.” I’ve got the info here.
But you know, with Pete Wentz fueling these rumors, WHO KNOWS! haha. First he let it “slip” that they were having twins. Then they supposedly registered for all blue items (which lead people to believe they were having a boy.) ***sigh***
