Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz engaged
Look out Beyonce and Jay-Z, it's time for another music industry wedding! This time the players are singer Ashlee Simpson, 23, and Fall Out Boy singer/bassist Pete Wentz, 28. Pete popped the question while the couple was in Colorado and got down on one knee. "She has an amazing ring, and they are so in love," says a family friend. Ashlee's parents approve, but after her sister Jessica's young, failed marriage you'd think the Simpson's would be a little more cautious about having another daughter racing to the alter. [In Touch]
