Matched only by the desperation of Jessica Biel/ Mila Kunis, who let people know no one cheated with Justin Timberlake, Ashlee Simpson and estranged husband Pete Wentz REALLY want people to know that they’re still friends, okay? Wentz has been giving interviews to let people know there’s no animosity between he and Simpson, which follows a series of pictures of the ex-couple getting fast food together on the weekend, at Hollywood In-N-Out Burger, and a quote planted in People last week basically saying the same thing: they’re amicably working through their custody issues for the sake of their son. In what feels like something Wentz rehearsed at gun point while lather-rinse-repeating his newly shaved hair, above, the former Fall Out Boy musician, 31, called into Ryan Seacrest’s KIIS-FM morning show to discuss his new band, Black Cards, and to praise Simpson, 26. ‘It’s like Ashlee’s been my best friend for five years,’ Wentz said Monday. ‘She’s the mother of [son Bronx, 2]. I have nothing but love and respect for her. Going through something like this isn’t easy, but we’re friends, and the most important thing is to put our son first.’ Adding, ‘It’s like the one time on earth I’m like, ‘Thank god Charlie Sheen exists.” For real though, thank goodness Sheen’s having a well-publicised mental breakdown that makes the head-shaving of Britney Spears look like the work of an amateur. Pretending the run together getting fast food wasn’t staged, he said, ‘It’s hard to maintain your private life, [but] you want to do it, especially when there’s a kid involved.’
