Inside Ashlee and Pete's Wedding

Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz got hitched Saturday night under tents and amid tight security, but E! News has an insider's account of the top-secret wedding ceremony and reception.

The ceremony was held in the backyard of parents Joe and Tina Simpson, decorated in an Alice in Wonderland theme.

"It was magical and beautiful," says the guest, who termed the whole affair "The Joe Simpson Show."

After escorting Ashlee down the aisle, Joe Simpson regaled the 100-plus guests with funny and touching stories of his daughter before performing the brief ceremony himself.

The elder Simpson got choked up throughout the ceremony, as did Ashlee and Jessica. "They were all crying," says the source. "It was very moving."

Seeming to acknowledge the challenges of marrying into the Simpson family, at one point Joe quipped, "Pete is a very patient guy."

Ashlee wore an ivory Monique Lhuillier gown with a veil for the ceremony, while the bridesmaids were draped in black Vera Wang numbers. The men wore black tuxes with skinny black ties. Guests had been asked to wear dark clothing, and most everyone did, with attire ranging from black jeans and sports coats, to fancy black tuxes and dresses.

The reception and dinner followed.

Jessica and Tony Romo sat at the wedding party table, but the guest observes, "Jessica did not look happy the entire night. She just wasn't her bubbly self. She was very subdued and she and Tony barely interacted the entire night, except for some dancing at the end.

"You could tell she was really happy for her sister, but that maybe she was a little bit sad that things aren't working out as well for her."

Jessica did, however, give a very emotional, off-the-cuff speech toast, saying that Pete and Ashlee's relationship "has inspired me to love again" and spoke very affectionately of her little sister.

"She apologized for not writing anything more formal," the guest says, "but it was very much from the heart."

Wentz's brother also gave a toast.

The guest says that for a wedding of two musicians it subdued, with a deejay and no band. "It was weird. No one was dancing. There was like nobody on the dance floor until after they cut the cake, and then people finally danced."

After taking photos, the bride livened up and slipped into a "sexy black party dress" and danced. "She managed to hide her pregnancy pretty well," the source says. "She really didn't look pregnant."

Guests were required to check their cell phones and cameras outside the tent. "You could step out and make a call, but you had to check the phone in before returning back inside. It wasn't a big deal. Everyone there gets it."

The reception did experience some drama. At one point later in the night, Ashlee lost one of her diamond earrings. "Pete got on the mic and told everyone to look for the earrings," the guest says. "He said they cost more than the entire wedding!" Within a few minutes, a guest found the missing baubles.

By about 1:30 a.m., the reception had died down and most guests had left. "It was beautiful. It was truly intimate and friends and family only. It wasn't a Hollywood wedding at all," says the attendee.

Guests were given a parting gift: a red box containing a cookie inscribed "Eat Me."

'Indiana Jones' arrives in Cannes

Cannes obviously has a jones for “Indiana.”

The Sunday night premiere of “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull” met with a 3½-minute standing ovation -- nowhere near a festival record, but a reaction of respect, appreciation for the film’s craftsmanship and its nostalgic sensibility and style.

Paramount’s gamble in bringing the film here seems to have paid off and the pic avoided what has become known as “the ‘Da Vinci’ syndrome.”

The mood -- a cross between goodwill and acceptance of the pic’s inevitable success -- began Sunday afternoon at the press screening, as jaded media members whooped when the lights dimmed. Later, reporters asked fawning questions at the press conference and hundreds of onlookers began gathering early in the day in front of the Palais, eventually creating an enthusiastic gridlock that far surpassed the energy of any event so far during the 61st festival.

Even Mother Nature seemed primed for the preem: Though torrential rains were forecast for Sunday evening, clear sunshine greeted the filmgoers, while a nearly full moon shone as the exited.

The crowd went nuts at the arrival of Steven Spielberg, George Lucas and Harrison Ford. Some photographers went a little nuts too. Before the film had ended, the festival sent out an alert that it would be reviewing tapes of the hordes of photographers on the red carpet, and revoking the closing-night credentials of those responsible for “inacceptable incidents.”

Apparently some got overenthused and crossed the physical boundaries of the designated fotog space, though the stars and filmmakers entered the Palais without being hassled.

Most of the audience was hustled into the Palais to allow the stars and filmmakers, including Par’s Brad Grey, to make the big final entrance.

But earlier, Par’s John Lesher, Nick Meyer, Brad Westin and Rob Moore schmoozed at the foot of the Palais steps, while CAA partner Richard Lovett snapped photos (including DreamWorks’ Stacy Snider).

Other major film honchos included Jim Gianopulos, Brian Grazer, Christian Grass, Peter Rice, Harry Sloan and Harvey Weinstein. Agents on hand included Endeavor’s Patrick Whitesell and CAA’s Emanuel Nunez.

A huge throng of fans -- many wearing faux Indy fedoras -- whooped for celebs including Salma Hayek, Michael Moore, Adrien Brody, Goldie Hawn, Dennis Hopper and Christian Slater made their way up the steps.

At a press conference following the afternoon screening for the media, Spielberg said bringing the film to Cannes seemed the right thing to do. The pic was developed and filmed in secrecy, so they wanted to unveil it to the world’s press all at once, rather than giving a series of regional review screenings.

Coming to Cannes, he said, seemed “the fair thing to do and the fun thing to do.”

Though critical reaction is not likely to be unbridled enthusiasm, it won’t matter. The film is critic-proof and the brickbats thrown at “The Da Vinci Code” two years ago didn’t dent that film’s box office.

At the press gathering, Ford shrugged off thoughts of the critics’ reaction. “I’m not afraid at all. I expect to have the whip turned on me.” It’s not unusual for something popular, he said, “to be disdained by some people.” But this film is “a celebration of the movies and I feel inured to professional criticism.”

The press conference began with a lengthy question in French asking Spielberg if he’d received any communist pressure to create the movie. (He assured that he hadn’t.) One Japanese correspondent pointed out that atomic bombs -- the film takes place during the ‘50s Cold War -- are still a very sensitive subject to the Japanese.

Those were the only hints at negativity in the 40-minute sesh, with most of the time taken up with softball questions. Ford was asked to compare Spielberg’s directing now to the 1981 original (Ford’s answer: “As brilliant as he was 20 years ago, he is even better now”) and if he is flattered by the fans’ enthusiasm (“I am very gratified”), while Spielberg was asked if Ford is his “secret weapon” (the filmmaker said he’s so good, he’s a secret weapon for any director).

Spielberg was also asked about a fifth edition and he said it depends on reactions to this film (“We will keep our ears to the ground”).

Queried where they were during the press screening (i.e., the first public showing), Spielberg laughed. “We were all doing press. ... We were doing the Cannes waltz.”

The bulk of the questions were directed at Spielberg and Ford, with George Lucas as runner-up (he was asked if he believes in crystal skulls and to talk about other action films that have imitated the “Indy” series).

Cate Blanchett, Karen Allen and Shia LaBeouf spoke briefly, while Jim Broadbent, Ray Winstone and John Hurt sat smiling and mute, ignored by the press.

The Cannes critics and journos love to discover filmmakers, like Romanian Cristian Mungiu, whose “4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days” arrived with minimal advance buzz last year and went on to win the Palme d’Or. In contrast, these lovers of high art are often grumpy about overhyped biggies, with Sony’s “The Da Vinci Code” two years ago falling victim to blockbuster backlash as festgoers’ skepticism during the opening credits turned into hostility by the end of the film.

What a Diva

"Idol" castoff Kristy Lee Cook is getting too big for her britches -- at least in her own head.

The songstress called her local nail salon in Grants Pass, Ore. yesterday to make an appointment, and get this -- Kristy asked to be ushered in through the back door to avoid the crowds of adoring fans. Only problem, there weren't any!

No one at the salon had even heard of her. Needless to say, Cook walked in unharmed by the swarm of no one and got her nails and feet did. It's hard being famous y'all!

A big baby coming to prime time soon

Get your popcorn ready: Terrell Owens is coming to prime time Wednesday night. As an actor.

T.O. will make his sitcom acting debut on the MyNetworkTV show "Under One Roof" as the long-lost brother of the show's star, Flavor Flav. Owens tries convincing Flav and sitcom sibling Kelly Perine that they're all brothers in hopes of getting them to invest in his Web site.

"I see dollar signs," Owens said in an interview with The Associated Press. "I'm trying to kind of smooth my way into the family, but Flav is not buying it. It's a lot of funny dialogue. It was a good time."

It might also be a first step toward a second career.

"If I'm going to really consider doing acting after football, this a great start to let me get my feet wet," Owens said. "For an actor trying to become an A-lister, I think I'm on the bottom of the pile. I'm a D-lister."

Owens always has been comfortable in front of a camera, but it's usually playing the character known as T.O.

He's built his reputation through end-zone celebrations, colorful interviews (such as the time he answered questions while doing sit-ups in his driveway) and dressing up for the Tour de France just to ride a stationary bike at training camp. He showed more acting skills during a skit with one of the "Desperate Housewives" that aired before a Monday Night Football game. The scene ended with the woman dropping her towel - and ABC later offering an apology.

Owens got a taste of Hollywood in 1999, when he appeared in "Any Given Sunday" with a star-filled cast. A friend who is the casting director of this show has long been encouraging Owens to take on roles, something he's more receptive to after the way things went with Flav's show.

He came away with several football-acting comparisons: Cast members are like teammates, the script is like a playbook and both require lots of practice so that once the lights go on you're ready for anything.

"You've got to get a feel for the flow of the show and the storyline and go with it," Owens said. "They told me they were very, very pleased with the way I played my character, just how I was getting my lines on point and on cue. That was very, very encouraging."

Viewers can see for themselves at 8 p.m. EDT on Wednesday night. Owens will be tuned in, too, because that'll be the first time he sees the finished product.

And, yes, he'll have his popcorn ready, like he memorably urged fans to do upon joining the Cowboys.

"I think I've got everyone I know tuned in to watch this show. I even sent an e-mail out," he said. "I guarantee you, once people see the show, I'll be getting e-mails and text messages out the wazoo. ... Believe me, it's some funny stuff. It's going to be great."

Even if the reviews are outstanding, Owens won't be giving up his day job any time soon - even if he is in the final year of his contract.

"I know what's the breadwinner for me," he said. "But definitely I'm looking forward to doing some acting after football, in the offseason next year. I think I did well enough that they even may bring me back for some recurring roles. It's a start for me, and I don't like to fail at anything I do."

Scott Weiland Begins Jailhouse Rock

This Stone Temple Pilot has landed safely in jail.

Scott Weiland checked into a Van Nuys, Calif., jail this morning to begin serving an eight-day stretch for driving under the influence, stemming from his November bust after a minor fender bender on a Los Angeles-area freeway.

Per the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, the alt-rocker showed up around 8:55 a.m. but wasn't booked until 12:15 p.m.

Weiland was sentenced April 28 after pleading no contest to misdemeanor DUI, his second conviction in four years. He also was put on four years probation, ordered to complete an 18-month alcohol program and fined nearly $2,000.

So far, it's unclear as to how he's planning to make the Stone Temple Pilots' May 17 gig at the Rock on the Range Festival in Columbus, Ohio, on Saturday, minus some time off for good behavior or, as has befallen many a celebrity before him, early release due to overcrowding within the county jail system.

According to STP's website, the group is still planning to rock the Buckeye State this weekend.

Foreclosure on Jackson's Ranch Averted

NEW YORK (May 11) - Entertainer Michael Jackson said on Sunday a foreclosure sale on his Neverland Ranch set for this week was averted after a loan on the California property was sold to Colony Capital, a large real estate investment firm.

The loan had been held by Fortress Investment Group, a New York-based private equity and hedge fund group.

The loan was about $23.5 million, according to a source familiar with the matter.

In a press release, Jackson said he was in discussions with Colony and its founder, Tom Barrack Jr, "with regard to the ranch and other matters."

Representatives of Jackson and Colony did not provide additional details. A Fortress representative could not be reached for comment.

The formerly high-flying singer and songwriter saw his career slammed by child molestation charges in 2005. Even though he was acquitted on all counts, he has faced significant financial problems in recent years.

And Wino is Free...Again

After more than nine hours of questioning at an East London police station yesterday, Amy Winehouse has been released from police custody.

Stop Stalling!

I think it's about time R Kelly has his day in court. Read this crap.

R. Kelly's lawyer has asked for another delay in his ongoing child pornography trial.

Kelly's lawyer, Ed Genson is asking that jury selection, slated to begin May 9th, be delayed because of a recent news report in the Chicago Sun-Times.

The Sun-Times published a report on Saturday stating that a witness has been added to the witness list who claims to have had a threesome with Kelly, 41, and the allegedly underage girl who appears in the now infamous sex tape.

Kelly's lawyer wants jury selection postponed due to the amount of publicity the article generated over the weekend.

Kelly, whose real name is Robert Kelly, has continued to deny the allegations made against him, claiming he is not the man on the tape.

Judge Vincent Gaughan is expected to rule on the request on Friday.

Sharpton arrested as hundreds protest NYC police shooting (AP)

NEW YORK - Hundreds of demonstrators led by the Rev. Al Sharpton clogged intersections and snarled traffic across the city to protest the acquittal of three officers involved in the shooting death of an unarmed black man on his wedding day.

Protesters said Wednesday's "pray-in," which led to the arrest of 216 people, was a preview of potential future demonstrations designed to paralyze the city until federal authorities investigate the shooting.

"We're going to keep coming until we get federal indictments. It's wrong," said Frank Rodriguez, a military veteran who attended one of six rallies across the city.

U.S. attorney spokesman Robert Nardoza said the case was under review, but he declined further comment about a possible federal case.

Sharpton and relatives of Sean Bell, the groom killed in 2006 in a 50-bullet barrage, planned to meet privately with Gov. David Paterson on Thursday to talk about the case.

The demonstrators on Wednesday prayed, sang and chanted slogans including "no justice, no peace!" as they converged on six locations, including heavily used bridges and tunnels that carry traffic to and from Manhattan.

Sharpton, two survivors of the shooting and the slain man's fiancee lined up and peacefully put their hands behind their backs as police arrested them on disorderly conduct charges. They were released about four hours later, said Sharpton spokeswoman Rachel Noerdlinger.

The protests were carefully orchestrated: Organizers circulated sign-up sheets for those willing to be arrested and issued instructions on how to behave when arrested. They also were advised not to volunteer if they had warrants out for their arrests or other pending legal issues.

After marching to the New Jersey-bound Holland Tunnel behind a "Stop the Brutality" banner, protesters blocked two entrances as some sang the civil rights anthem "We Shall Overcome." Demonstrators who moved to the sidewalk applauded each time one of their fellow protesters was arrested.

Drivers waited patiently. "I disagree with doing anything illegal, but, hey, this is what makes America great," said Aaron Hanson, a passenger in a car waiting to get into the tunnel. "If this is what people really need to do to make a statement, it's what they should do."

A few miles uptown, some protesters were arrested after blocking traffic into midtown Manhattan on the Queensboro Bridge, while about 200 people rallied near the entrance to the Triborough Bridge in Harlem.

Sharpton, shooting survivors Joseph Guzman and Trent Benefield, and Bell's fiancee, Nicole Paultre Bell, linked arms as they blocked a street at the Brooklyn Bridge's base.

They were followed by at least 200 demonstrators who kneeled down in prayer in the road and counted from one to 50 in a stark reference to the 50 shots. Some carried signs proclaiming, "We are all Sean Bell."

A heavy police presence initially stood by during the demonstrations, allowing the protesters to march unimpeded to the bridges and tunnels. Mayor Michael Bloomberg had pledged to "make sure that everybody's rights are protected and that the law is obeyed."

The racially polarizing case has raised questions about police use of deadly force in minority communities. Bell was black, as are two of his friends who were wounded in the shooting; the officers were black, Hispanic and white.

The three officers were acquitted of state charges last month. They testified that they feared for their lives after Bell and his friends got into a testy exchange with another patron outside a Queens strip club and appeared to be going to retrieve a gun; Bell's friends testified the detectives fired wildly and without warning at Bell's car. No gun was found with Bell or his friends.

Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said Wednesday that the department was continuing to examine the possibility of disciplinary action against the detectives.

R. Kelly Kiddie Porn Trial Set To Start

(AP) It seemed for a while as if R. Kelly's day in court might never come.

But after six years of repeated delays, jury selection is set to begin Friday in the Grammy-winning R&B singer's trial on child pornography charges, prompted by a videotape allegedly showing Kelly having sex with a girl as young as 13.

Prosecutors, though, will have a unique challenge: The alleged victim, now 23, says it wasn't her. And Kelly's attorneys - including Ed Genson, who often represents the rich and famous - haven't admitted it's Kelly in the video.

"How is there not reasonable doubt when the two people say it's not them?" said Michael Helfand, a Chicago attorney not involved in the case.

But Helfand conceded that it's unclear what supporting evidence the prosecution might present.

The 41-year-old Kelly, whose first name is Robert, faces up to 15 years in prison if convicted. But Kelly - one of urban music's biggest stars, and a consistent hit maker despite his legal woes - is glad the wait is over, his spokesman said.

"Every waking moment, he's always had this hanging over his head," spokesman Allan Mayer said. "He's confident that when all the evidence comes out he'll be shown not to be guilty of any crime."

The centerpiece of the trial is likely to be the video footage, which Judge Vincent Gaughan ruled may be shown in open court.

Prosecutors claim the videotape was made sometime between Jan. 1, 1998 and Nov. 1 2000, and that the girl was born in September 1984.

Kelly was indicted on pornography charges June 5, 2002, after the tape surfaced and was sold illegally on street corners and the Internet. Chicago police began investigating after receiving the tape from the Chicago Sun-Times, which said it was sent to the paper anonymously.

Police and prosecutors said their investigation, including interviews with about 50 witnesses, determined Kelly and an underage girl were on the tape, and that FBI forensics experts had determined the tape was authentic.

Prosecutors may need more than a videotape to prove their case, said Helfand, the Chicago attorney.

"I'd be beyond surprised if he got convicted based on what's out there," said Helfand.

It is unclear whether prosecutors have asked - or would be allowed - to tell jurors about accusations that Kelly allegedly had sexual relations with other minors, because some of the trial proceedings have been kept secret by the judge. Media outlets, including The Associated Press, have filed a legal challenge seeking to get court records and hearing transcripts unsealed.

Kelly has settled three lawsuits accusing him of having sex with underage girls, filed in 1997, 2001 and 2002. In the third suit, the woman claimed that she began having sex with Kelly when she was 16, and that he forced her to have an abortion.

In 2003, Kelly was arrested in Florida on child pornography charges after investigators said they found photos of him having sex with a girl. Charges were dropped after a judge ruled detectives illegally seized the photographs from a digital camera in his home.

Documents show Kelly secretly married the singer Aaliyah in 1994, when she was 15. The marriage later was annulled by her parents; Aaliyah died in a plane crash in 2001.

The trial's six-year gap from indictment to trial is uncommon in child porn cases. But while suspects have a right to demand a swift trial, they're not obligated to ask for one, especially if they calculate that speed isn't in their best interests.

In Kelly's case, more than 30 pretrial motions contributed to delays. At one point, hearings were delayed when Judge Gaughan fell off a ladder at home and suffered multiple fractures. By the time he recovered, Kelly needed emergency surgery for a burst appendix.

Despite his legal troubles, Kelly - who rose from poverty on Chicago's South Side to become a superstar singer, songwriter and producer - still retains a huge following, and his popularity has arguably grown since being charged in 2002. The singer has released more than half a dozen albums, most of them million-sellers. He's also had a multitude of hits and gone on tours. His campy video series "Trapped in the Closet" have a cult following so strong that the Independent Film Channel premiered the latest chapters of the farcical musical, out on DVD, on its web site last year before showing them on the network. Kelly has a new song, "Hair Braider," out now, and is due to release a new album in July.

Although he won a Grammy in 1997 for the gospel-like song "I Believe I Can Fly," his biggest hits are sexually charged songs like "Bump N' Grind," "Ignition" and his current single.

The trial is expected to draw crowds of reporters and fans to the courthouse. But Gaughan is expected to keep a tight rein on the proceedings, from which cameras, cell phones and recorders are banned.

When a fan snapped a picture of Kelly with her cell-phone camera during a pretrial hearing last year, Gaughan sentenced her to five days in jail and ordered her phone destroyed.

"He's not one of those guys who's going to let this trial turn into a circus," said Helfand.

Amy Winehouse Arrested - Again

(AP) Amy Winehouse has been arrested on suspicion of drugs possession, police and her spokesman said Wednesday.

Winehouse's spokesman, Chris Goodman, said the arrest is connected to a video that is alleged to show the troubled singer taking drugs at a party in her home in north London.

Britain's The Sun tabloid in January published still images from a video that it claimed showed Winehouse inhaling fumes from a small pipe. The images were said to have been filmed during a party at her London home.

London's Metropolitan Police said a 24-year-old woman was arrested Wednesday on suspicion of drugs possession. Goodman confirmed his client was in police custody.

"Amy Winehouse voluntarily attended a London police station today by appointment. She was arrested in order to be interviewed and is cooperating fully with inquiries," Goodman said in a statement.

"The interview relates to a video handed to police earlier this year," he said.

Winehouse is famous for her hit "Rehab." She has had a turbulent private life. Last month she was cautioned by police for assault after she slapped a man during a night out. That means no charges were filed, but the incident was placed on her record.

Shortly after The Sun published still photographs of the video, Winehouse entered a London rehabilitation center.

Avril Lavigne Vacation

Continuing her sunny vacation, away from the northern winter blahs, Avril Lavigne was spotted taking a dip in the pool at her resort in Miami, Florida yesterday.

The "Girlfriend" singer was looking cute in a sky blue two-piece bathing suit, along with some rock star shades, as she sipped a drink.

And it sounds like Avril's thinking about joining the ranks of Celine Dion, Shania Twain, and Britney Spears in the world of celebrity fragrance lines.

According to documents filed last month with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, she wants exclusive rights to her own name when it comes to products including fragrances, aftershave, bath soap, body lotion, and talc.

Maybe we’ll all get to shower and smell like Avril someday!

Am I a bad person because I find this funny

Crazy Britney

It was a chaotic night at the Spears household, as police were called to Britney’s home in a custody dispute that “lasted nearly three hours before an intoxicated Spears reportedly turned over her children to ex-husband Kevin Federline.”

Officer Jason Lee, a police spokesman, told City News Service: “Officers were called to the home around 8 p.m. on Thursday, and the 26-year-old singer turned over the children around 10:50 p.m.”

Lee also said that “Spears was under the influence of an unknown substance, and no injuries were reported.” He added that the incident involved a family dispute that police worked to resolve “peacefully by court order”.

After handing over her sons, Jayden James and Sean Preston, Britney was then placed on a gurney and taken to Cedars Sinai Medical Center for what police are calling a “medical hold” - which is basically a mental evaluation period.

At that time, Jayden was also taken to the hospital in a separate ambulance for unknown reasons, while Sean Preston was whisked off in a black VW.

Stay tuned to Gossip Girls for more updates on this developing story.

In the meantime, enjoy the pictures of Britney being taken to the hospital and Kevin at the scene, along with shots of the pop tart at her deposition earlier in the day (January 3).

Jamie Lynn Spears PR Team's Spin

This will be the last Jamie Lynn Spears Update I promise but I found this funny!

Since it was announced that Jamie Lynn Spears is preggers at age 16, it seems everyone in the Spears camp is scrambling to put a positive spin on things. And the latest installment of PR spin is a statement that her parents love the guy who got her pregnant.

Sources close to the Spears family are telling press just how amazing Casey Aldridge really is. Reportedly he’s been really helpful in shielding the “Zoey 101” actress from the pressures of Hollywood.

A pal told press, "He took amazing care of Jamie Lynn. Anything ever went wrong, he always comforted her. He took care of her. Jaime [her dad] talks about how he really likes Casey because he's a great guy. And Lynne [her mom] really likes him, too. He's a good kid, cares a lot about Jamie Lynn. They both adore Casey."

As for Aldridge, he's either 18 or 19 years old, and grew up in Liberty, Mississippi, a short drive from Spears' Kentwood, Louisiana stomping grounds. According to the Spears family source, he’s going to be a terrific dad.

"He's a stand-up guy, and he will take care of the baby. He is not the type to let her deal with it on her own. He will be there in any way he can. ... I know a baby wasn't in his plans for right now, but he'll do what he has to do, and he'll be a good father. He really will."
