Why Pete Wentz Is So Emo

Earlier this morning we came across a little quote Pete Wentz gave to Playboy about popping Ambien and playing Russian roulette. Turns out there was so much more in that interview.

"As a kid I always went to therapists; the first time was when my parents were separated on my sixth birthday, then on and off since then. I was diagnosed with ADD—see also: raised on sugary cereals and cartoons—and manic depression. So I was prescribed Ritalin for the ADD, and for the manic imbalances I was prescribed mostly benzodiazepines, which I loved, and antidepressants."

Divorced parents, ADD, sugary cereals, prescription drugs—sounds like the perfect recipe for some serious Hot Topic emo-ness. It also makes us feel a little bit bad for the guy, so we'll just end this by saying how excited we are for his future emo-baby with Ashlee Simpson-Wentz, which the couple is 90 percent expecting to be a boy.
