Back when news of Ashlee Wentz’s pregnancy first broke, the Simpson camp - being the media pros that they are - remained mum about the baby chatter.

Pete Wentz, on the other hand, went so far as to DENY that Ass was pregnant.

Now, he explains to MTV News why he was dishonest with his fans and the media.

Says the dad-to-be:

“Every woman, no matter who they are or what they do for a living, has the right to wait at least 3 months before sharing this very personal news,” he wrote. “We wanted to wait until after the first trimester and get a clean bill of health from our doctors before confirming anything, just like any other couple.

Being a boy I have no idea how to respond to such things and my first instinct was to protect her and the baby.

It’s insane that you can’t let happy news brew in Hollywood. This wasn’t about press or anything. It was about the health of the baby and trying to find a way to be happy with what should be the most happy time of our lives in the middle of a press blitz. I apologize to anyone who felt misinformed but the truth is, the person and growing baby is who I felt most loyal to protect and defend.”

And there you have it!

Do you think Pete should have lied or just remained quiet????

Hundreds of angry British youth gathered outside the offices of the Daily Mail in London on Saturday to protest their negative characterizations of their favorite band, My Chemical Romance, and the paper’s story that one Emo teen killed herself because of their music.

This is the protesters’ story and their video from this weekend’s rally!

Despite REPORTS that they had broken up….

Ashley Tisdale and her boyband boyfriend, Jared Murillo, seem to be very much the couple.

And, they’re taking their relationship to the next level!

The pair visited Na Hoku jewelers in Los Angeles Friday afternoon, where The Tiz tried rings on and left wearing one on her wedding ring finger.

A promise ring, perhaps????

The twosome giggled and held hands affectionately as they browsed the jewelry.

Their shopping trip included a visit to Victoria’s Secret before they stopped in the jewelry store for over an hour.

Wait….

The Tiz is not a virgin????

Shock!
