Pete Wentz Terrified Of Murder And Barack Obama’s Good Looks

Fall Out Boy’s Pete Wentz told The Daily Mail he is convinced someone is going to murder him.  He won’t open his door for fear of being taken down by a crazed gunman.  Pete needs a dose of reality.  Because, as a rule, gunmen often don’t announce their arrival by ringing the doorbell.  Of course, this whole murder concept comes from a dude who also said, “If I didn’t have a baby, I’d have a chimp.”  So, you know, grain of salt.

Other scintillating snippets of Pete’s interview:

  • I never want to hear Jeff Buckley’s Hallelujah again-it was playing when I overdosed in 2005.  It’s a hard song for me to listen to now, because it brings the moment back so vividly. It’s become such a popular song that it’s always on at parties these days, and I have to leave the room.
  • While I’ll always be bipolar, I find it easier to deal with now.  I remember being extremely happy at the age of four. I went to visit an aunt in Switzerland and remember feeling ecstatic the entire summer. But now is even better. With marriage and fatherhood, I’ve finally found two fixed points in my life. They’ve taught me patience. They’ve also taught me that I don’t need to feel guilty about being happy. My emotional seasons are less extreme.
  • My recurring nightmare is finding that Johnny Depp has joined our band.  Don’t get me wrong, I love the guy’s work. But imagine being in a band with someone who’s a million times better-looking and charming than yourself. I wouldn’t stand a chance. Same goes for Barack Obama. How could I say no if he wanted to join the band? Maybe he could do some dancing at the side of the stage. That would be cool.
