Pete Wentz is being sued for a beatdown he helped security give a heckler that we reported last June. One wonders what could make such a pleasant, sensitive man like Wentz open a can of whup-ass on someone, and the answer appears to be mocking Ashlee Simpson. If you want proof of how googly-eyed Wentz is for his future wife/babymama, you need look no further than the interview People's Most Beautiful Couple of '08 gave the mag about their "Rock'n'Romance." Warning: The following quotes are not for easily queased.
PW: "The red hair - I think it's awesome!"
AS: "Thanks, babe."
PW: "I had a super Jessica Rabbit crush when I was little. She had red hair like you..."
PW: "Sharing a bathroom with a girl is awesome 'cause I'm just like, 'Oh I'll try this thing.' I honestly don't really know what most of the stuff I use is. I did a facial [mask] today. I think the eye hole went over my nose. I don't buy those kinds of products [as gifts for Ashlee] cause I'm nervous I'm gonna screw up - she likes La Mer only."
AS: "You buy me good jewelry. And you bought me a good Dior bag the other day that I loved."
PW: "I was spending a lot of money at Dior so I kind of like -"
AS: "You were like, 'I feel guilty! I'll get something for her.' He's the best at surprising me. He always does little things here and there that surprise me..."
PW: "[Without makeup,] she reminds me of when I was little in the summer."
AS: "That's cute."
PW: "There's a very specific moment, like, when I was driving in the car with my parents. I don't know. It just reminds me of it. I don't know why."
Awwwwww! And he'll even protect her honor by throwing in some kicks when security pummels a heckler. Hey wait, did she dye her hair red while pregnant? That can't be healthy!

Gross.
That picture ain't for the easily queased, either.
After this little interview, Wentz's endoresment of Obama might do more damage then Rev. Wright's association with Obama.
When I first glanced at this picture, I thought it was Liza Minelli ca. 1976.
well shoot me in the face and call me sally, that was the most painful exchange i've ever had the misfortune of reading.

What pitiful little insect gets beat up by Pete Wentz?
I'm prepared to continue fighting these charges as long as it takes, but first, let me read People Magazine interview with Pete Wentz and Ashley Simpson.

@the sieve: I sort of have to wonder this myself.
Also: ewwwww.
I feel like that photo should be filed under the "indie-rock nightmares" section. Or, more appropriately, "regurgitated '80s pop-rock nightmares?"
stuff like this further cements my belief that the whole pete/ashlee thing, while probably having some sort of root in actual affinity between the two people involved, is approximately 75% about 'fucking with the celebrity-industrial complex.'
@Maura Johnston: I think that's giving them way too much credit, but how hard can it be, really, if shit like this:
PW: "[Without makeup,] she reminds me of when I was little in the summer."
AS: "That's cute."
is published.
PUBLISHED!
And now blogged...zing!
@Rory B. Bellows: I don't care if this post is way outdated.
I thought that was brilliant.
