OK, listen up, Hollywood. No more twins. Please. At this rate, the offspring of famous people will outnumber the offspring of Muggles 10 to 1 by the year 2015. The latest to be cooking up a fresh pair of infants: Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz. Aka the Wimpsons. E! Online reports:
Pete Wentz and Ashlee Simpson-Wentz could find themselves facing another round of twin rumors.
Hip-hop artist Tyga, Pete's buddy, says that the parents-to-be are expecting not one but two bundles of joy.
ìTheyíre having twins,î Tyga said in an exclusive interview yesterday at the House of Hypeís pre-VMA barbecue. ìTheyíre really happy.î
Either Tyga spilled the beans or heís repeating an Internet rumor that Pete started earlier this summer. In June, Pete sent the Internet into a tizzy when he referred to his and Ashleeís unborn baby as ìthemî during an Arizona radio interview. He quickly denied they were having twins, explaining to blogger Perez Hilton that he was just trying to be vague about the pregnancy.
A rep for the couple insists only one baby is on the way. "It is not true," the rep said of Tyga's twins report.
What the hell is going on. We understand when oldsters like Marcia Cross and Julia Roberts and Nancy Grace and J. Lo have twins because they were lab-created. But Ashlee Simpson is, like, eleven. It's like all her fourth grade dreams of matching her Cabbage Patch Kids in cute identical outfits and calling them Mary and Carrie have come true. Only now they'll be wearing tiny matching hoodies with skulls on them. And they won't come from a cabbage patch, they'll come from this.
