Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz have revealed the first picture of their baby son Bronx, for free, not on the cover of a magazine but on their official website.
Underneath a banner wishing us all “Happy Holidays” the couple share a picture of themselves with six week old baby Bronx, as Pete kisses his head.
We decided to share the best gift we could ever receive with you: Bronx Mowgli Wentz. We couldn’t be happier. And in the spirit of the holidays, we’d like to encourage you to give on your own. Below is a list of worthwhile charities that need your support.
They then invite you to donate to the International Rescue Committee which helps refugee families, Room to Grow which assists babies born into poverty, and the Richie-Madden Foundation for children’s issues.
I think this is the best way to premiere your new baby if you’re a celebrity. While rumors were rife that no one wanted to pay for baby Bronx, Pete blogged that they were offered “mounds and mounds of money by mags… to pimp out the baby.” He claimed that “we just don’t want to go down that road with him,” but added that “We are not placing judgment on those that do.”
With all the bad news about the economy, people don’t want to hear that someone made a few million for posing for photographs with their new baby, when for most of us a new baby means a sacrifice financially. We non-celebs also debut our baby photos to family and friends where we look sleep deprived and still six-months pregnant, not fabulously photo-shopped and glamorous on a magazine cover.
