Pete Wentz: I've Tasted Ashley's Breast Milk

Following up on his raunchy December 16 interview with Howard Stern, Pete Wentz revealed that wife Ashlee Simpson's breast milk tastes "soury" and "weird" on SIRIUS' The Morning Mash Up! on Monday.

The Fall Out Boy bassist, 29, may not be a fan, but Ashlee and Pete's newborn Bronx Mowgli is: "The baby loves it, it’s the only thing he’s had a chance to have."

Wentz went on to reveal that Ashlee isn't the only Wentz to put on some pregnancy weight: "I gained 10 pounds at least. I usually hang out around 135, 134, I go up to about 140, and when I hit 148, I get fat face."

He added, "I’m working out a little bit, trying…I mean last night I decided to eat Virgil’s [BBQ] at midnight which is never a good idea…I’m feeling that a little bit today. For the most part, we’re going on walks – that kind of stuff. I think it comes off easier for her because she gets to breast feed and I don’t have the luxury of doing that."

Wentz also opened up about his "scared daddy moment."

He said: "I had a scared moment right before she went into labor – I thought I was having a heart attack for real, like my heart started doing like a weird thing. But, the first time I held him…I just knew everything was perfect. Like everything was good – it was like Legos, you know what I’m saying, like it all fit together."

And Wentz doesn't want to stop at just one baby. He might even be aiming for a Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's brood of six.

"I want to have six now. I mean not six specifically, but I want more…I can’t imagine that we’re stopping, you know what I’m saying? This is like a Journey song, it’s like the chorus is just going to keep coming."

He went on to say that his son is already a musician in the making. "You know he’s already got a little bass, he has a little piano."

Bronx will be receiving many more gifts for his first Christmas. "I don’t think at one they matter that much to him, but they matter a lot to me, so I’m going to be there sweating it out, putting things together…the nightbefore Christmas because I know that’s what my Dad did and I know that’s what I want to do."

Courtney Cox And David Arquette Are Committed To Making Their Marriage Work

"I get shocked by people getting divorced all the time, that’s why I choose to work on it. Therapy helps us," Cox told the UK's Mail on Sunday "It's so easy to grow apart; marriage takes work. I suppose you can work it out by talking to each other - I would just prefer to have a referee, it reminds us why we're together."

Cox's parents parents divorced when she was a child. "Before my dad died, he said one of his big regrets was that he hadn't worked on their marriage enough. I don't know what the future's going to hold, but divorce isn't really an option," she said.

Asked if it's difficult working with her husband of nine years, Cox said, "It seems like it would be the worst thing in the world but we manage to handle it really well. We argue, but never about work. We love being together."

A typical Sunday involves, having "people over to our house. David does the barbecuing, and we have a fantastic chef, Patrice, who makes great salads, vegetables and fish. Sunday is my favorite time because it's really about friends."

She added: "And, yes, Jen's there just about every Sunday."

Cox raved of her former Friends costar and best friend Jennifer Aniston, "We've known each other nearly 15 years now, we grew up together emotionally. I lost my father, Jen got divorced, and I had a baby. We've been through huge life changes together. I can be myself around her."

She continued: "We never judge each other, we support each other, but we're honest with each other too. I feel lucky to have her. Jen and I grew up together emotionally. We've been through huge life changes together."

As for Aniston's romance with beau John Mayer, "I want for Jen whatever she wants; she's really happy at the moment, so I don’t have to worry about her," Cox said.

Meanwhile, Cox stars in the upcoming Disney flick Bedtime Stories with Adam Sandler, a movie that is sure to be a hit with four-year-old daughter Coco.

"Coco's favorites are Sleeping Beauty, The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, she’s totally into princesses," Cox said.

Their holiday plans?

‘Christmas is insane in our house. I say: "Let’s buy Coco one good toy," but he wants to buy her 900 presents. Our compromise lands closer to David."

Aniston spoils Coco too.

"Coco calls her Noona, which is Greek for godmother; they see each other and play together every weekend," Cox explained. "The other day Jen came over with her yoga teacher and Coco stuck it out for an hour doing yoga with them"

Pamela Anderson Hates Wearing Pants In Public!

What is wrong with Pamela Anderson? Can someone please buy this woman some pants???

She's said she would never exploit her boys on her reality TV show yet she doesn't mind strolling through LAX International Airport wearing a see-through white, baby doll shirt and short shorts, which are basically panties.

Pam was in Sin City trying to find a New Year's gig - you know, a party that she can host, where she can be the center of attention for dressing inappropriately, getting drunk, kissing strangers and just being typical Pam. All of which I am sure make her children proud!

Anderson had something lined up but it was canceled. The 41-year-old mom brushed it off, saying that such club appearances go "against every ounce of my being" and that she'd "rather be with my kid snowboarding." Which means, she got dumped and now no one wants her, so might as well pay attention to her kids.

Meanwhile, in Monday's season finale of MTV's The Hills, Montag makes amends with her one-time BFF, Lauren Conrad.

"You've got to stay tuned for tonight, but I think Lauren and I both have had a lot that's happened in our lives and we’re older now," Montag said. "For me personally, I’ve missed her. That was my best friend and it's hard when that's taken out of your life. I think for both of us we just wanted some kind of closure in one way or another. It was really really good to see her. It was definitely one of my best moments of the season."

Mathew McConaughey Travels To Brazil With The Family

Fresh from a worldwide road trip, the new dad, 39, took to his MySpace Celebrity blog Saturday to share his recent "just keep livin'" moments and reveals how he spent his Nov. 4 birthday.

"I spent my 39th birthday on the southern rim of the Grand Canyon," he blogs of his special day with girlfriend Camila Alves and son Levi, 5 months. "[I] almost got 'butted' off the edge by a ram and caught some shooting stars."

His ultimate impression of the landmark? "Mother Nature created something that looks so fake, it's real. I was once again reminded of how good looking this country is."

The actor also opened up about people he met along the way. "I was in some predominately 'red' states when President-elect Obama was elected," he writes. "I talked to a bunch of people who had voted for McCain and - checkthis - unanimously, those same people were genuinely excited and hopeful about Obama being elected. They all felt that the country had spoken in earnest, electing Obama, and they were more than 'ready for the ride,' they were ready to get into the action."

Another memorable moment from the road? His trip to Brazil with Alves.

"I went to Brazil for the first time to visit my lady's family and tour the land a bit," McConaughey blogs. "Found a very proud and happy culture there. We ate, we drank, we danced, and they tolerated my stumbling through the Portuguese language....I will return, beautiful country, beautiful and classy people...thanks Brazil...cool."

Brian Littrell's Son Diagnosed With Kawasaki Disease

Backstreet Boy Brian Littrell’s six-year-old son Baylee has been diagnosed with A-Typical Kawasaki Disease, the singer updates on his official website.

Here’s what he wrote:
“On Saturday December 20, 2008, Baylee T W Littrell was released from Scottish Rite Children’s Hospital in Atlanta. Before being admitted Baylee had been treated for or thought to have had strep throat, hand, foot, mouth disease and erythema multiforme. After receiving a biopsy, blood tests, an EKG and 2 echocardiograms, Baylee was finally diagnosed with A-Typical Kawasaki Disease. We would like to stress A-Typical because Baylee did not have text book symptoms of any of the viruses they thought he had.

“Kawasaki Disease causes inflammation in the coronary arteries as well as the walls of the small and medium sized arteries throughout the body. Unfortunately, Baylee’s coronary arteries were affected. He received an IVIG, which is a treatment to bring down the inflammation in his coronary arteries. Baylee will be closely monitored for the next 6-8 weeks by a Pediatric Cardiologist to see if the treatment was effective.

“We want to thank every one who prayed for us as well as all of the emails and phone calls. Your love and support means so much to our family. The Hospital Staff were absolutely amazing. They made an extremely difficult time in our lives as comfortable as possible.

“We are humbled by the love and compassion that people have for our son all over the world, thank you! — Brian and Leighanne Littrell”

Marcia Cross To Be The New Face Of Mott's

Mott's Applesauce is tapping Desperate Housewives star Marcia Cross as the face of their new marketing campaign.

The brand - which has been around since 1842 - is receiving a glamorous makeover from its Dr Pepper Snapple Group owners, touting a seductive "A secret like Mott's is worth sharing."

That secret being that one cup of Mott's applesauce provides one whole serving of fruit, and that an 8-ounce glass of apple juice provides 2 full servings. Combined, that's almost all of your recommended daily intake!

Which is exactly why it's the foundation for the brand's new catchphrase. "Moms didn't know that about the brand and were interested in hearing about it," said Mott's director of marketing, Allison Methvin.

And who better to appeal to coddling mothers than one of the mommiest of celebrity moms?:

Marcia Cross, mother of twins, "who is balancing her work and her life without surrounding herself with five nannies," as Hans Dorsinville, Laird evp, put it. Laird+Partners, Los Angeles is shooting the print ads.
