No one wants Ashlee Simpson’s wedding photos

Ashlee Simpson and fiancé Evan Ross made good on their engagement plans last weekend by marrying in a lavish ceremony… that no big news publication wants to pay for pictures of, apparently. You see, the Simpson family is famous for hawking pictures of major life events – they’ve counted on it for income for over a decade. The problem is, no one’s buying Ashlee’s shit. From the New York Daily News: “The Simpsons have a long history of selling pictures to magazines,” an insider tells Confidenti@l. “When Jessica was at the peak of her success with Nick Lachey, her dad made an exclusive several-part deal with OK! magazine. Just a few months ago, Jessica sold her most recent wedding pictures to People for $300,000. But now it seems no one cares about Ashlee anymore.” “The only outlet that had expressed any real interest is People,” another insider said. “But they made it clear that a picture of the two sisters together would be better than a picture of Ashlee alone or with her groom. And (People) will not guarantee a cover.” An hour after Confidenti@l contacted Simpson’s rep Janet Ringwood for comment, wedding photos were suddenly, and not exclusively, released for sale to any magazines or papers that were interested — in the late afternoon on Labor Day! Well, that sucks. But seriously, can you name one thing Ashlee Simpson has done in the past 5 years BESIDES get married? I sure can’t – so why the hell is anyone acting like she’s still a celebrity?

Angelina Jolie’s kids drew on her wedding dress

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have always insisted that their decision to get married – and the wedding itself – was all about their kids, who were really into the idea. It seems that’s actually the case, as Angelina donned a pretty interesting dress when she tied the knot with Brad last weekend. Here’s the scoop from US Weekly: In the first photos, on the new cover of the UK’s HELLO! magazine, the happy bride affectionately kisses her now-husband Pitt. “It was important to us that the day was relaxed and full of laughter. It was such a special day to share with our children and a very happy time for our family,” Brad and Angelina told the mag. As previously reported by Us Weekly, the couple wed in a small intimate ceremony in a chapel in Chateau Miraval in France. “It was a non-denominational civil ceremony,” a spokesperson for the couple told Us in a statement. “It was very much a family affair.” A family affair indeed. Not only did Jolie’s dress feature artwork drawn by kids Maddox, 13, Pax, 10, Zahara, 9, Shiloh, 8, and six-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox, the children were also active in the nuptials. Jolie walked down the aisle with Maddox and Pax, while Zahara and Vivienne “threw petals, gathered from the garden,” the spokesperson previously told Us. “Shiloh and Knox were the ring bearers.” Aw, well that’s sweet. I think it’s extra sweet that they really did do this for the kids and would have been perfectly fine not ever getting married if it wasn’t for them. I do think they will be together for a long ass time – like, think Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins time (they were the best couple EVER). I dunno, I just think they work!

Justin Bieber arrested, charged with assault and dangerous driving

Justin Bieber is an asshole of epic proportions, so it’s no surprise that he’s continuing to rack up criminal charges with the best of them. You see, JB was arrested in Stratford, Ontario, Canada on Friday and charged with dangerous driving and assault after he got into an altercation with the driver of an ATV (who was, for the record, not a paparazzo). From CTV News: OPP say they were called to Line 40 east of Road 106 – east of the singer’s hometown of Stratford and northeast of Shakespeare – shortly before 3 p.m. Friday in response to a crash between a minivan and an ATV. A physical altercation occurred between the driver of the ATV and a person in the minivan following the crash, police said. Bieber, 20, faces charges of dangerous driving and dangerous driving and assault. Police say he was released from custody on a promise to appear in court. His next court date is set for Sept. 29. Fuuuuuck this kid. Can we not just put him in jail and throw away the key already? I know that won’t happen, but at the very least, he should not be allowed to operate a vehicle. AT ALL.

Kate Upton is mad about you seeing her boobs

Kate Upton was one of the victims in the JLaw nudies scandal that kicked off over the weekend, and while people weren’t all that bothered by/interested in seeing Kate’s boobs since we kinda do all the time in every single ad she does, she’s flaming mad and wants to sic a lawyer on anyone who dares to post the illegally obtained images. From US Weekly: Kate Upton found fame from posing in sexy photos — but after being involved in a celebrity phone hack, there are new nude images the model does not want shared out there. Like Jennifer Lawrence, Upton’s phone was hacked and nude images have leaked, her attorney confirms to Us Weekly. “This is obviously an outrageous violation of our client Kate Upton’s privacy,” attorney Lawrence Shire tells Us in a statement. “We intend to pursue anyone disseminating or duplicating these illegally obtained images to the fullest extent possible.” Oh, dear. I don’t know, I feel like it’s obviously a violation of all of the victims’ privacy, 100%. But the more I think about it, the more I think it’s a really dumb decision to have your phone sync to iCloud when you know you have nudes on your phone. Obviously when you’re getting your bits out to try and turn on a partner, you’re probably not thinking about setting your phone to manually sync selected images or whatever, but this happens far too often for people to keep making the same mistake. Dudes do it with dick pics, too – it’s just that society seems to care a little less about those. But seriously, not being funny, but click behind the cut for a NSFW, totally legally and willingly taken photo from one of Kate’s shoots. Why would anyone care about her private naked selfies?

Carrie Underwood is pregnant!

Carrie Underwood has been married to husband Mike Fisher for a few years now, and she was starting to get asked a question Jennifer Aniston is rather tired of: When are you having babies? Well, the answer to that is NOW, because Carrie and Mike are expecting their first child together. She announced the news on Instagram on Monday with the above photo and the following caption: In honor of “Labor” Day, Ace & Penny would like to make an announcement. Their parents couldn’t be happier… Aw, isn’t that cute? I don’t know much about Carrie and don’t really follow her, but she’s always seemed really sweet (albeit a little misguided) and is obviously pleased with her pregnancy, so good for them. Hopefully it’s a healthy and happy one! Follow us on Twitter | Facebook
