She’s already got “a lil’ black IN her” , now she wants a lil’ black ON her Ashelee Simpson Wants To Legally Become A “Ross” According to TMZ reports : Ashlee Simpson’s coming out … she wants the world to know … that Diana Ross is her mother-in-law — so she’s legally taking her name, or she’s trying to anyway. Here’s the deal — yes, Ashlee married Diana’s son Evan Ross back in August, but legally his name is Evan Naess … his father’s last name. Now, Evan and Ashlee want to leap into Rossville together. They’ve filed a request to change their last names to Ross-Naess. Why the switch? They are expecting their first child, but since they already have the same last name — Naess — that can’t be it. This appears to be purely about giving mama D some props … officially. A judge will have to sign off on their petition, but not until the end of January because — you can’t hurry name changes. You just have to wait. White people wanting some blackness is all the rage nowadays. *side-eyes Iggy Azalea* Image via WENN
