Ashlee Goes Zen While Joe Keeps Defending Himself

Ashlee Simpson may be laying off the hardcore workouts, but she's keeping her mind and body in the right place with a prenatal yoga class in LA yesterday. She looked all happy and pretty grown up, but even now that she's married with a baby on the way, people can't stop talking about Joe Simpson's overbearing ways. Now, Joe is responding to the rumors that he's too involved with his girls. He said to Extra:

  • On his role: “For all those people thinking I’m sipping Piña Coladas on the beach and enjoying millions of dollars and having this great life – Bull..I work seven days a week, 24/7. The media says that I try to plan everything - If I had half of the power they give me…They [Ashlee and Jessica] don’t call me and ask me. They call me and tell me.”
  • On Ashlee: “I love Pete to death…He has a patient spirit and a kind heart…I’m honored to have Pete as my son-in-law.” Although Simpson tells “Extra” that the sex of Ashlee’s baby, which will be his first grandchild is unknown, “I would love to have a boy, but I know how to raise girls so I’m good with that.”
  • On Jess and Tony: "That's going well -- she is as happy as I've seen her in years." He continues, "He's a great guy. I love Tony to death -- he's just a good kid."

Either way, I'm just trying to get used to the idea of Ashlee as a mom. I'm sure it'll become far more normal as we watch her baby bump grow and I have a feeling this isn't the last we'll be hearing from Joe on the topic. Even if his intentions are in the right place, methinks there are a lot of people who don't want to see him with another Simpson (Wentz) girl with a career to manage.

    Hey Joe, I don't care if people ask about your relationship with your kids, just quit talking about it. If you arent involved too much then let it go. Doth you protest too much..

    Ashlee is a cutie!

    No Joe, you are not good at raising girls, just controlling them.

    The whole situation is so bizarre to me! Joe is creepy, Jessica has the 500-yard-stare of a Vietnam vet, and now Ashlee, who has the emotional maturity of a 14-year-old, is about to be a parent. The parent of a little Fall Out Baby. It's just too strange.

    Papa Joe couldn't possibly love getting all this attention now would he?

    Oh Joe, shut your trap. No one cares about you. I mean, how many other managers of stars do we hear about?!? Aside from Britney's, he's the most vocal and notable. And I'm pretty sure that's not the way its supposed to be. That whole family scares me.

    I totally agree with Brian and Pink - I think he talks too much, has said some stupid things, and should just hang out in the background.

    Uuuuuuuggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhh the man is a (In the words of my beloved John Mayer) A DO***E B*G!

    I don't know about anyone else, but I believe that Tony Romo broke up with Jess because of him. He's a control freak! I don't think I believe that he's "Inappropriate" with them, but I DO believe that he feels like he has to be in control at all times. Hey, ya know what? He and White Oprah should get together. Maybe they'd kill each other!?!?!?!

    So wait, who's going to be raising this baby - Papa Joe or Pete and Ashlee? Eye-wink

    Maybe her neck is really cold? I dont get the whole tank top and scarf thing but maybe thats because I'm from the Northeast and we wear scarves because it is cold.

    sunny1intucson - I glossed over that but - wow. Sounds like Papa Joe already has plans for the little one! Urgh. He seems to just love being in everyone's bidnazz. Butt out, man!

    That comment probably only meant that he'd be there if they have questions, but it does SOUND creepy. I think the control freak is poorly spoken and says the wrong thing a LOT, but I still think he's just a control freak.

    she's starting to look a little more preggo in those pictures - unless it's just the outfit and the angle. i hope that pappa joe starts to lay off a bit. he is a bit over bearing!

    I think he's creepy, but whoever made a big deal about the "love to death" comment. I know TONS of people that just overuse that phrase. People take everything so literal...

    Papa Joe is just toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo creepy! It's gross. Jessica is completely messed up because of him! Ashlee on the other hand seemes strong, so I hope she's able to keep her baby out of his hands!

    I never like it when someone says that they love someone to death.

    If he's just their manager maybe he should talk a little less and work a little more. he is so overbearing whether or not he's a meddler , he comes across as too involved so whatever he is doing , he needs to stop.

    Yup, if he'd only just shut his mouth every once in awhile he wouldn't need to "defend" himself
