Hot on the heels of the Brangelina taps Bono to be the Holy Twins Godfather news comes an even more insidiously twisted triangle.
A source told The Sun that Pete Wentz will ask John Mayer to be his baby’s godfather.
“Pete and John have been spending a lot of time together lately and they get on so well. They are firm friends. John gets a bad rap and is always portrayed as a bad boy but he’s got a heart of gold. Pete and Ashlee know that and they think he would make a great godparent. But they are holding back asking him at the moment because they are not sure how Ashlee’s sister Jessica would feel about her ex having such a strong link to her new niece.”
How Jessica is going to feel? Papa Joe will never let this happen. He’s going to sell the exlusive rights to some corporation. So don’t be surprised if it’s announced that Viacom and Target are Emo Baby’s godparents.
Here’s the new godfather leaving the gym yesterday.

ShoeMinx likes the look of the Senator’s stance. Barack Obama is great at working the “action” photo op. His face is now the ultimate trademark for the idea of change. In this photo, it looks like he definitely has his eyes on the prize.
In honor of Obama’s style on the bowling lane, ShoeMinx shopped for the most fabulous bowling shoes on the market and arrived here, at the Gucci “bowling” shoe:
Trendy clothing chain Urban Outfitters stocks T-shirts that read “Obama for yo Mama” and “Barack ‘n’ Roll.” This is a whole lot more marketable than a “Vote ‘08″ T-shirt sporting a fat red elephant.
As far as retailers and street vendors in New York City are concerned, Barack Obama is a cult hero in the vanguard tradition of Jimi Hendrix or Che Guevara because like those youth icons, he is being marketed as a fashion statement.
ShoeMinx has seen aprons, T-Shirts, socks and even women’s underwear thongs. Such rah-rah “merch” is being sold online at unprecedented levels. Our favorite collectible is, of course, the “Yes We Can” running shoe.
Will Obama’s popularity in the fashion world will translate into victory in November?
