I. CAN. NOT. BELIEVE. THIS.  Did they seriously not learn anything from Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey’s mistakes?  I think we all know that putting their private life in the spotlight was a big part of the reason why the original Newlyweds broke up.  Even though Ashlee Simpson’s publicist has denied it, sources are saying that Joe Simpson is really pushing for his youngest daughter to do her own reality show with Pete Wentz.

“He knows that no one cared about Jessica before her reality show, and he’s hoping a show for Ashlee will have the same effect.”

UGH.  I so hope this isn’t true.  Even though I don’t really feel the same sort of affection for Ashlee and Pete that I think a lot of people felt for Jessica and Nick, that doesn’t mean I’m wishing for them to break up before they even get started!  Reality shows are like the kiss of death for new marriages in Hollywood.  Why would they even consider doing this?!?  What do you think? 

Do you watch The Hills? Then I am sure you are enjoying Alicia Key’s in Dove’s mini series, Fresh Takes. Here are a few behind the scenes shots of Alicia and guest Nick Lachey filming the series finale.

Did you hear rumors that Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo were on the verge of breaking up? Well, those rumors can be laid to rest now, the couples rep has denied it. He said that the stories are “not true.” Seeing pictures of the two leaving a restaurant, they both looked unhappy and that’s what got people talking, but a source says,

“Nick and Vanessa did go to dinner that night but there was no fight. When they got in the car, Vanessa looked annoyed in pictures because she was fixing her eyelash!”

Hearing that makes me wonder how many times I’ve misinterpreted what’s going on in a picture..

And in other couples in Hollywood news, Mary Louise Parker and Jeffrey Dean Morgan will not be getting married. The couple has called off their engagement. The two hope to remain friends and hold each other “in the highest regard.”
