Ashlee Simpson-Wentz and husband Pete Wentz became parents on November 20 to a son - Bronx Mowgli. And of course everyone's dying to see what the little man looks like - well, some of us are. According to reports, not a single magazine has showed any interest in publishing the baby's photos. But, new dad Pete says, it's all big fat lies. Oh do tell!
Here is what Pete wrote:
"ring ring, it's the truth calling:
About baby pics gossip: truth is like every celeb couple we were offered
mounds and mounds of money by mags from here to Guam to pimp out the baby. We just don’t want to go down that road with him.
We are not placing judgment on those that do as they often use the money in a very charitable way. However, we have made the decision to not sell Bronx’s baby pictures right now. We understand that like other celebrities have said, “there is a bounty on our heads” for these pictures. There is a danger when there are cameras being held over walls and into our backyard. We are followed day and night and that was fine when it was us but we are going to do our best to shelter Bronx from that as much as possible. Its scary to be followed by 10 cars to your home. We understand the curiosity, just not the viciousness that comes along with it when it becomes so insatiable. We know there will be a time when we’ll share him with everyone because that insatiable curiousity becomes unsafe or simply because we’re proud parents who want to show him off! We know our fans support and care about us and want to know about our family and we’ve always been straight up and open with those who care about us most, so at some time, when it makes sense, Bronx will be out in the world.
In the meantime, we’d like to say thank you to those who have allowed us relative privacy in letting us just be a family for now - and to enjoy all the happiness he’s brought us.
ps trust me he’s cute. he looks like his mommy."
So there you have it. The mags do really want to see pics of Bronx in their publications but the Simpson-Wentz family does not. Do you think they did get offers? For realz?
