The Engagement That Rocked The Blogosphere

It's official. Fall Out Boy bassist Pete Wentz and singer Ashlee Simpson are engaged.

The couple was all smiles at the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards last week. I think their smiles were more, "We know something you don't know," than, "We're so happy to be here."



The engagement announcement was made via Pete's website, Friends or Enemies, in a statement released by the couple:

THIS JUST IN FROM ASHLEE SIMPSON "We know there has been a lot of speculation recently about Pete and I and we wanted our fans to be the first to know, because you guys are the best. Yes, we are thrilled to share that we are happily engaged. Thank you for all of your support and well wishes - it means the world to us. We consider this to be a very private matter, but we wanted you to hear it straight from us."
- Ashlee and Pete

Oh the ways of the MySpace generation. Announcing your engagement via a social network is sure to catch on like wildfire now.

Haven't they only been dating for a little over a year? That's kind of quick. Then again, big sis Jess knew Nick Lachey for years and look where that got them? Quantity's got nothing over quality.

Wow, they're so grown up now. It seems like it was just yesterday that he was picking his nose ... oh wait, that was yesterday! (hey jynx!)
