Pete Wentz commissioned an artist to build a huge bumblebee out of Lego as a wedding day treat for his new wife Ashlee Simpson.

The Fall Out Boy rocker asked Nathan Sawaya to make the symbolic creature out of 18,000 Lego bricks.

Sawaya tells E!online.com, “In Hindu myth, Kama, the god of love, has a bow and arrows, and the bow string is made up of bees.”

“In the ancient Greek world the bee symbolized the soul because they migrated in swarms. And the Roman god of love, Cupid, is often pictured with bees or being stung.”

“I made this bee for a boy who wanted to give his girl a special wedding gift.
“They are a fun couple as evidenced by their Alice in Wonderland-themed wedding.”

The couple, who wed in Encino, California on May 17th, has just confirmed Simpson is pregnant with her first child.

The Hanson clan just keeps growing!

Zac Hanson, the band’s youngest brother, and his wife Kate Tucker have welcomed their first child together.

John Ira Shepherd was born in Hanson’s hometown of Tulsa on Tuesday.

While Shepherd is the first child for the 22-year-old drummer, definitely isn’t the first Hanson offspring. Middle bro Taylor and his wife Natalie have three children, Ezra, 5, Penelope, 2, and River, 1, while Isaac and his wife Nikki are parents to son Everett, 1, and are expecting their second child in the summer.

All eleven are expected to pile in one tour bus in support of the band’s latest disc The Walk. They may want to spring for two!

Is Jermaine Dupri the jealous type?

Yes, according to longtime gal pal Janet Jackson.

The R&B songstress has a steamy love scene in her new video, “Rock with You,” with a much younger man, 21-year-old choreographer Tony Testa, and she says her beau didn’t really seem to like that plot element.

“He said nothing! Nothing,” she tells Extra. “I said, ‘Okay, I can tell there’s a little bit of jealousy.’”

Jermaine has nothing to worry about though. He and Janet have been together for six years and she only sees a future with him — and possibly one with children.

“At some point in my life I do [want to have kids],” she says. “When I was younger, I used to babysit. I used to babysit my nieces and nephews.”

Janet was, of course, surrounded by kids herself during her childhood, being the youngest of nine children. And how about all those rumors of a Jackson family stage reunion in Las Vegas?

“This is the first I’ve heard that,” she says. “I would love for my brothers to get together.”

“I think she works out three hours a day – which is one of the keys to success,” chef Mario Batali told Usmagazine.com at the opening of the Uncle Ben’s Kids Café in Carson, California, on Wednesday

He added that the Iron Man actress, 35, “loves to eat … and, you know, she never puts on a pound!”

Paltrow and Batali are teaming up for their upcoming PBS documentary Spain …On the Road Again, airing this fall.

“We had an amazing time — we saw everything!” he said.

“Predominately,” he added, the show’s “about understanding Spain from the perspective of a casual traveler. It’s very much like a road trip, we just drove into a place, figured out what was going on and tried to get a hold of it.”

Indiana Jones star Harrison Ford has proposed to long-term girlfriend Calista Flockhart of Ally McBeal fame.

Twice divorced Ford popped the question on April Fool’s Day leaving Calista, 43, in some doubt as to its seriousness.

But it seems the 64-year-old actor, whose other credits include Star Wars and Air Force One, was not jesting and the pair, who have been dating for five years, will get hitched as soon as the promotional work for the fourth installment of the Indiana Jones series is complete.

Ford already has two sons from his first wife Mary Marquardt as well as two from his second marriage to screenwriter Melissa Mathison.

He has been raising Calista’s seven-year-old son as his own since the pair met in 2002.

The news comes as Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull made back more than half its entire production budget – around £75 million – in its first weekend at the box office.

It is the third biggest opening of all time.

Idol Clay Aiken’s producer is pregnant with his child, TMZ.com reports.

Jaymes Foster (who is reportedly in her late 40s) was artificial inseminated with the 29-year-old singer’s sperm, according to the report.

Aiken lives with Foster – described as his “best friend” – when he’s in L.A. and plans to be involved with parenting their child, TMZ reports.

The crooner has consistently avoided questions about his sexuality.

“People don’t want to have that type of stuff pushed, people who are living in Omaha or in Charlotte or wherever,” Aiken told Access Hollywood last month.

“They don’t want stuff like that pushed in their face,” he added. “I don’t think that’s necessary and that’s also not what I’m here for. I mean, I went on Idol to be a singer, I went on Idol to be an entertainer and that’s what my priority is.”
