This weekend there was not one, not two, but three celebrity weddings. Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade decided to make their 5 year union official by getting married in Miami on Saturday.
Then on Sunday, Ashlee Simpson and Evan Ross became Mr & Mrs yesterday in Connecticut. The two said I do at his mom, Diana Ross’ home according to Us Weekly. Ashlee’s 5 year old son, Bronx, walked her down the aisle and her sister, Jessica Simpson, served as the Matron of Honor.
Finally, Donnie Wahlberg and Jenny McCarty got married outside of Chicago yesterday, less than 6 months after getting engaged according to People.
I know this will sound awful, but my first thought about these three weddings is which couple will be the first ones to say I don’t. I think it will be Donnie & Jenny, what about you?
Patrick Dempsey was on The Ellen DeGeneres Show yesterday and she got him to do something that we can all enjoy. She had him go in a tank while Pete Wentz and Patrick Stump aimed at balloons with arrows. If they nailed the center one, then the Grey’s Anatomy star would have buckets full of water rain down on him. Well after just two tries by the lead singer of Fall Out Boy, the middle balloon was pierced and Dempsey was all wet.
Things we learned about the Enchanted man, in his now clinging underwear, is that he has a nice anatomy!
Pete Wentz is hosting the season two of Best Ink that airs Wednesdays on Oxygen at 10p. Recently I was on a conference call where he talked about his tattoos and why he decided to take on this job.
When you think of Pete Wentz and what type of competition show he would be a part of, you would think it would be one involving music. He explained why he said yes to this show and not the others. He said, “I get hit up to do whatever kind of reality show or whatever and they don’t really make a whole lot of sense for me. This one did, because I felt like it was authentic to my brand.” Then he added, “I’ve been into tattoos for a while; I wanted to learn more. And obviously I’ve been an enthusiast. I felt like after meeting with Joe and realizing that I’d get to learn a lot about the inner workings of a tattoo shop and more about tattoo culture that was really important to me.”
So why he is so fascinated by tattoos? He said, “I think to be a walking canvas is a pretty cool thing. It’s an actual living, breathing piece of art. It’s interesting because everybody’s body kind of has a different skin tone and shape so tattoos look different depending who it is, depending on when you got them.”
Wentz was just 15 when he got his first tattoo and he described it as “brutal.” He then had some advice for teens who are thinking about going under the needle, “I definitely recommend waiting until legal age to get tattooed. Not just because you’re probably doing some shady stuff. But also because I think people really have to grow into who they are, who you think you’re going to be for a long time. ‘Cause when you’re 15, you think, 30 seems like it’s gonna be forever. But one day you will be 30 and you’ll have that tattoo still.”
So since then what is his most meaningful tattoo that he has on his body. He answered that it is one he shares with Travis McCoy from Gym Class Heroes, he described it as “I have half of a banner and he has half of a banner and they meet up on our wrists. His says ‘young hearts’ and mine says ‘be free,’ a Rod Stewart song.” And in the future he will be adding another one to his body, “I remember I actually told my son on the way to school, as soon as he learns to write his own name, I’ll probably get tattooed in his handwriting. At some point that’ll happen.” He’ll look good with Bronx Mowgli on his body somewhere, just hopefully not where his son came from. Although that might be one of the few places left where he can get it. That’s because when I asked him how many tattoos he has, he said “I have my whole right sleeve done. I have my chest. I have part of my left arm and then a little bit on my legs. My favorite’s probably one inside my left swear finger. It’s hidden. It’s the directions to Neverland, second star to the right. I don’t know…”
While Wentz is good at getting tattooed, he is not good at giving them. He told us that he once gave one to his friend Dirty, but it didn’t turn out so well. He explained, “You know it didn’t help that we were on tour and there was a bunch of people watching. And you know, people were like ‘it’s not working’ and they were like ‘do it harder.’ And it was on his shin and honestly it was not ever going to be a good tattoo, but it maybe didn’t need to be as bad as it was.”
Maybe now that he is watching all of these people on Best Ink 2, he will get some tips on the proper way to do it on someone else in the future. And while he didn’t get any new tats when he was working on the show, he does plan on having at least two of them ink him up in the future. Think you know he wants to leave their mark on him? Tune in to find out…
Joe Jonas was on Late Night on Friday and Jimmy Fallon challenged him to a game of Rock, Papers, Scissors, Pie. The game is easy, the two men put their heads through some cardboard cutouts and then play the children’s game Rock, Papers, Scissors, Shoot. Then the loser has to turn the notch to see if they will get a cream pie to the face. Sadly for The Next mentor, he got creamed not once but twice.
As much as I enjoyed that, I liked it better the first time that he played the game with Anderson Cooper because it was more about the anticipation of getting a face full of pie as compared to actually getting it. For some reason that is more torturous and to me more exciting.

Now I am not saying that Ashlee Simpson hasn’t always been pretty, but when I saw these pictures of her I was shocked by how pretty she was. When did that happen?
Now that she looks good from the neck up, someone has to work with her from the neck down.
