Poor Pete and Ashlee. First everybody makes fun of their baby's name (personally, if we were going to name our kid after a Jungle Book character, we'd go for Rikki-Tikki, but whatever), and now no one will hand over cash to see the little emo tot. Maybe Us Weekly et al. weighed the pay-out against the hairstyling budget and decided it wasn't a fiscally prudent endeavor. Reports Page Six:
ASHLEE Simpson and Pete Wentz are trying to drum up some cash by selling photos of their baby, Bronx Mowgli – but so far, no takers. A celebrity weekly insider told Page Six, "Pete and Ashlee have approached every single celebrity magazine with offers to sell their first photos, but nobody wants them. Covers of them tend not to sell well." A rep for Simpson denied it.
Some might see this as a huge slap in the face to Little Petey and Ashlee, but we see it as a golden opportunity. If Star and People and the like aren't biting, this just may be the perfect occasion for Alternative Press or Pitchfork to break into the celebrity gossip game at rock bottom prices.

Hey, here's a somewhat novel concept… how about these celebs STOP trying to whore their precious tax deductions out to the same people that hire the stakerazzis they so despise, and actually EARN A LIVING for a change? Aren't these two supposed to be known for doing SOMETHING other than wasting our time?
That's not good to hear that nobody's interested to buy their child's photo.
HehHeh 'meh' as long as you do the same and actually kill the cows instead of just asking the customer if he would like to supersize that combo. Big Smile, Big Smile!
