Ashlee Simpson has filed for divorce from Pete Wentz. This means we can all go back to liking Pete again and he can go hang out with John Mayer and talk about the Simpson sisters. Ashlee and Pete were married almost three years ago and Ashlee says in her papers she wants child support and spousal support. Well, considering how lame her career is right now she could probably use the cash. She would also like to have joint custody. Did you get the feeling when you watch the couple through photos that Pete was the one who spent the most time with Manhattan Jungle Book? Sighting s of the boy with just Ashlee are pretty rare.
This should make Pimpa happy. Now he can put Ashlee back under his thumb where he likes her and help her to relaunch her career. Hello bad movies and a country album.
Honestly, didn't see this one coming.
ReplyDeleteI really thought it would have been Pete filing divorce
ReplyDeleteNo doubt bitch decided to divorce him when he quit the flatiron.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if this an answer to any blinds...
ReplyDeletePatty, do you think he even saw it coming? They looked pretty happy and were always together. Didn't FOB break up recently? Maybe he isn't making any money and she kicked him to the curb. I'm rooting for Team Pete.
ReplyDeleteYeah! maybe FOB will reunite *I actually like that band*
ReplyDeleteI might be a terrible person, but I was very glad to read this this morning. I have always thought Wentz was incredibly talented, and his career just DIED when he hooked up with this talentless bully. This is hopefully good news for his writing.
ReplyDeleteWas just listening to FOB the other day - between Stump's voice and Wentz' writing, that band was good.
Yep, she's her father's daughter all right. I hate when women who are perfectly capable of making a living on their own ask for alimony. Your marriage is over, the sharing time is done, suck it up and take care of your own ass.
ReplyDeleteWhen Ashlee first appeared, I thought maybe she was Jan to Jessica's Marcia, but she soon revealed herself to have even less talent than her sister. After the plastic surgery, the SNL debacle, the McDonald's counter-climbing, the Melrose Place and Chicago fiascos...enough already.
ReplyDeleteI have no use for these people.
ReplyDeleteI think Pete let her file to save face. He doesn't seem the vindictive type to me. I'm with you Enty -- Pete was with that child more than she was.
ReplyDeleteLike him. Her, not so much.
ReplyDeleteI always thought she was Coke-Mom.
ReplyDeleteyou know, good for her.
ReplyDeletei could give a rat's behind about pimpa joe...but now ashlee...poor girl. she doesn't have much talent (that we've seen), and she's still stuck in her sister's shadow, no matter how many nose jobs she gets. go be a mom and be happy. why be w/ some asshole who has no problem telling the press and twitter and anyone that will listen that his wife likes to take it up the ass. talk about taking up permanent residency in doucheachussetts. take your perm and go play w/ john mayer, wentz.
Wow! Surprise to hear this..
ReplyDelete@Pookie - what? When did Wentz say that?
ReplyDeleteWentz went on Howard Stern, right around when they got married I think, and talked rather explicitly about all varieties of sex he and Ashlee were having.
ReplyDeleteRQ-originally said it on howard stern's show.
ReplyDeleteidc how liberated he/she/they are, effing respect your spouse, you know?
i remember this distinctly b/c for weeks afterward there was an internal rush job to hush the story from inside the simpson camp. we (labels/agencies/industry peeps) were hit hard w/ 'retraction' statement releases and requests to spin & quell. it must have really hurt her b/c those types of hush-hush pleas are rare. usually the artist in question has their own pr peeps spin doctor it and done, that's it. on to the next topic. i totally lost the eeny weeny bit of respect i had for him then.
you can still find it online at sites like here:

TMZ has her divorce papers and she's asking for primary physical custody with visitation for Pete. Sources are already coming out saying that his behavior is erratic and it was too much for her. I guess the custody fight is getting ready to start.
ReplyDeleteagree Susan, both go away!
ReplyDeleteFair enough. Still team Wentz. I think as this divorce drags out we'll hear a lot about her drug use and her screaming matches with other women.
ReplyDeleteI always got a gay vibe from him. ((shrugs))
ReplyDeleteI am so embarrassed that I gasped when I read this...I'm surprised.
ReplyDeleteWhy would you be surprised about erratic behavior when you marry an artist/musician (even a wannabe one)? Der.
I'm with you RQ..he is talented and she is everything but..
ReplyDeleteI actually banned her music from my house years ago when my poor daughter was going through a bad music phase..
I actually did get to see her Eff up live on SNL and it just confirmed for me that she was a waste of ..whatevz..and I don't care how many nose jobs she gets..she will always be fugg to me
This kind of surprised me too. It seems like they were married longer than just two years.
ReplyDeleteI always thought that her face lost character after the nose job. And she's a douche. I think Pete is a good songwriter and should get FOB back together.
ReplyDeleteSome of the funnier comments at Gawker:
did asslee actually make a statement, or did she lip-sync it?
Ashleee will be reverting to her maiden name but will keep her married nose.
The Ashlee/Wentz formula is that you name your child after a place you've never been and a popular movie from your childhood. Like "Calgary CHUD Wentz" or "Liberia Poltergeist Wentz."
These are different people than Nicole Ritchie and Something Madden, right?
