NEWLY-WED, PROUD POPPA PETE WENTZ BRINGS THE FAMILY TO PALMS PLACE GALA OPENING
Its definite that Fall Out Boy rocker, Pete Wentz, and his new father-in-law Joe will be on the red carpet with sister-in-law Jessica Simpson tomorrow (SAT) for the glittering official celebrity opening of George Maloof’s new Palms Place condo-tel.
It’s not so definite that his new wife, Ashlee Simpson will. That’s because she’s pregnant and Pete has finally fessed up they are expecting a baby. “While many have speculated about this, we wanted to wait until after the first trimester to officially confirm that we are expecting our first child,” he posted on his personal Web site before jetting into Vegas. “This is truly the most joyous time in our lives and we are excited to share the happy news and start our family.”
The 28-year-old rocker and his 23-year-old pop-princess wife married earlier this month after a two-year dating spree wound up in an April engagement. Ashlee is also celebrating her new Bittersweet World, album which has racked up some 20 million plays on MySpace. Pete will take on the role of DJ for the poolside party at Kerry Simon’s new restaurant there.
Jessica is not expected to be with allegedly newly-reconciled boyfriend, Dallas Cowboys star Tony Romo, so expect nosy journalists to feast on all the love and baby updates, with Joe doing his best to block ‘em all!
Luxe Life broke the story of their bust-up after his expensive high-roller “bachelor-styled” weekend with football buddies at the Hard Rock ended in a blistering scream-fest. They reunited at the Pet-Ashlee nuptials for the sake of a monetary magazine photo-contract!
George has a slew of other stars inbound for the festivities including the hot Hills’ actresses Lauren Conrad and Lauren ‘Lo’ Bosworth. Also expected are actors Luke Wilson, of Beverly Hills 90210 and Dancing With The Stars’ friend Ian Zeiring, Scrubs’ star Donald Faison, singer Eve, Lisa Rinna with husband Harry Hamlin (also from DWTS) and the cast of the E! hit reality show Sunset Tan with the Olly Girls, Janelle Perry and founder owners Devin Haman and Jeff Bozz. Cameras will also film their Ditch pool party fashion show today (FRI) launching their new sexy bikini Dare Me line. The segments will air during the 2nd season of the reality show.
Paparazzi photographers are hoping (and betting) that pop comeback queen Britney Spears will show too, but all we know for certain is that Luxe Life will have the full photo report of the weekend long festivities right here on Monday.
