A little birdie told us that Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz would officially announce the baby news yesterday, but alas, nada. Maybe that's because Joe Simpson is allegedly having trouble selling an exclusive "Ashlee's Preggers!" cover to the tabloids. "Joe is contacting all the weeklies and asking them to pony up $1 million to put Ashlee on the cover," an insider tells Page Six. "The deal would include photos of Ashlee -- taken by Joe, of course, so he can make more money - an interview and photos of the baby when she has it." And while there's been some interest, the price is nothing near $1 million: as one magazine editor put it, the pics could get $60,000, but "Joe has an unrealistic expectation of what Ashlee can command." Yeah, we love Ashlee, but a million bucks? That's Ash-tronomical!

Psst -- we had a little interview with Ashlee ourselves! Come back tomorrow and check it out!
