Say what you will about Ashlee Simpson, but she sure is good at keeping her name in the papers - first she coyly refuses to confirm or deny her pregnancy, and now she's running around calling Britney Spears "trashy"! As noted by the Sun, during a taping of the Nokia Green Room earlier this week, Ashlee revealed that a radio interviewer had recently asked her whether she'd had too many "Britney Spears" - or Cockney rhyming slang for 'beers'. Unfortunately, Ashlee misunderstood the question - and responded that she hadn't had too many "trashy girls"! As you might expect, the singer looked horrified once she realized what she'd just said - or rather, what she'd just repeated! Jeez, Ashlee - if you're really that embarrassed about your gaffe, maybe national television isn't the best place to talk about it! Luckily Pete was on hand to stroke his fiancee's hand and help reassure Ash while the weight of her words sank in. And hey, if it gave her a chance to show off her engagement ring, so much the better! We'd claimed to be shocked by Ashlee's words - but then again, verbal slipups tend to run in the family!
