Baby boy for Ashlee

Ashlee Simpson is expecting a baby boy. The singer's husband, Fall Out Boy rocker Pete Wentz, says the couple are almost certain that they know the gender of their unborn first child.

He said: "We know with 90 per cent accuracy that it's a boy, and our due date is around Thanksgiving."

However, the bassist says they haven't picked out a name yet.

He added to Playboy magazine: "My friend Andrew said, 'Your kid has to have a name that would fit rock star or a senator.' "Earlier this week, a spokesperson for the couple was forced to deny they were expecting twins after hip-hop star Tyga - a friend of Pete's - said: "Pete and Ashlee are having twins. They're really happy."

However, Ashlee and Pete, who married earlier this year, insist they are only looking forward to welcoming the child in November.
