Ashlee Simpson Is Working On Her Next Album

Prepare yourselves, Ashlee Simpson is working on another album!

“I am working on it, but I’m taking my time,” Simpson tells E! News. “My little boy is my priority, I’m having a blast, but [it will be released] sometime late next year.”

OK, so now we have a release date. Kind of.

Another interesting piece of news about the album comes from an encounter a fan had with Ashlee. According to the fan, Ashlee said the new album would be “mature” because she’s older now (she turned 26 in September), and she referenced Florence + the Machine as an influence. The fan also asked if it would be “mature” like “Fiona Apple, Jewel and Alanis Morisette”, and Ashlee said yes. She then mentioned that it would still be “upbeat and fun” because she “can’t just stand there like how a ‘folk’ singer would”.

It sounds like it could be really good, if she does it well! Good luck Jessica Simpson’s little sister!

Pete Wentz Says He Ruined Fall Out Boy

Pete Wentz blames himself for the demise of Fall Out Boy – because his personal life became a “hindrance” for the band.

The rockers have decided to shelve the group indefinitely to allow them all more time to concentrate on their own projects.

Wentz is convinced his high profile relationship with wife Ashlee Simpson-Wentz, which propelled the rocker into the gossip columns, had a negative impact on their music and he wanted to take a step back to stop his celebrity persona from overshadowing the band.

He tells British magazine Kerrang!, “My biggest personal reason for taking a break is that I feel my name has become a hindrance for the band. (Frontman Patrick Stump) is a musical genius and it’s unfortunate that he gets reviewed based on whatever’s going on in my personal life or how my hair looks. I think the world needs a little less Pete Wentz. A lot of people think Fall Out Boy is me. But it’s the four of us. I want to f**king vomit when I read intros that say, ‘Pete Wentz: accidental internet poster boy.’ It makes me feel ugly.”

And the bassist is sick of seeing his face on the cover of magazines, because he is now better known as a tabloid celebrity than as a musician.

He adds, “People who read the tabloids probably think all I do is visit Starbucks and hang out in nightclubs.”

Pete Wentz & Ashlee Simpson Put Beverly Hills Mansion Up For Sale

Pete Wentz and his recently unemployed wife Ashlee are selling their home because it isn’t kid-friendly.

The couple has put their sprawling hillside Beverly Hills estate on the market as they hunt for a home with a yard for baby son Bronx, a source tells Life & Style Magazine. “The house is built into the side of a giant hill and it doesn’t really have any yard. Now that Bronx is getting older they realised that really isn’t a child-friendly house,” a tipser divulged.

“They are going to sell this house and look for something that will be better suited to young children.”

Ashlee bought the home in January 2007. It features four bedrooms, a gym, a gourmet kitchen, swimming pool, and two-store guesthouse.

I hope they don’t plan on having any more kids..I think it’s just better for the children.
