This clip is from Pete Wentz’ new MTV Show, FNM. One of their casting directors really blew it, as they decided to have some big Jonas Brothers thing on the same night as they premiered Slipknot’s new video, Psychosocial. At about 7:49 in the clip, you can see the most priceless reaction ever from 3 girls that are scared shit less.

When I first met the dudes in Augustana back in early 2005, they had just got done recording their debut record, All the Stars and Boulevards and were embarking on their first-ever honest-to-god tour. They were green, to say the least, but even on that first tour, you could definitely see why they were an A&R guy’s wet dream: they had hooks for days, a smooth but authentic sound, and the obligatory handsome frontman in Dan Layus. I, of course, had my doubts as to whether they would gain any traction, after all an American Brit-pop band in 2005 couldn’t even pay to lick Pete Wentz’s boots, but three years and a few hundred thousand records sold later, the band has released their second record, Can’t Love, Can’t Hurt and look to be in it for the long haul. Synthesis correspondent Lily Moayeri had a chance to sit down with Layus recently, the results of which are now posted for your edification on the frontpage.

Though Fall Out Boy chairman and overall winnar of the music world Pete Wentz’s penis has been widely seen on the internetz, there was as of yet no HARD evidence that his use of anti-anxiety pills hadn’t made his rock as soft as his band’s. Now however, comes the announcement that Pete Wentz has won his very own fuck trophy with his new wife Ashlee Simpson:
"While many have speculated about this, we wanted to wait until after the first trimester to officially confirm that we are expecting our first child. This is truly the most joyous time in our lives and we are excited to share the happy news and start our family." - Pete and Ashlee Wentz
All jokes aside, congrats to the new couple on their pre-baby.

Rumors have been circling for a while, but now the truth has been confirmed and fifteen-year-old, emo-core, teenyboppers everywhere will be slitting their wrists today.
As reported on friendsorenemies.com:
“We know there has been a lot of speculation recently about Pete and I and we wanted our fans to be the first to know, because you guys are the best. Yes, we are thrilled to share that we are happily engaged. Thank you for all of your support and well wishes - it means the world to us. We consider this to be a very private matter, but we wanted you to hear it straight from us.”
- Ashlee and Pete
It’s a little said that cute little Simpson sister is off the market, but to be honest I lost interest after the nose job. As usual there is some speculation that Simpson is preggers, so be on the lookout for that fall out boy baby bump.

Will the world be looking forward to a lip syncing, hoe-down dancing, sugar-we’re-DEFINITELY-going-down bobbit? The world is shocked amid reports that Ashlee Simpson and squeeze Pete Wentz actually tried sex, let alone succeeded in creating the most doomed child since dear little Suri Cruise. It’s been said that they’re keeping things quiet (surprise, surprise) but that Pete pulled the ultimate romantic gesture and and went down, down, in an earlier round on one knee and popped the big question. Poor child.
With a mother following closely in the footsteps of Brittany Spears, in not only blonde ambition but musical skill (or lack thereof), one can only wonder if the rumored tot may someday be sporting the same therapist as Sean Preston, Suri, and J.J. Of course, one also wonders with a government that can follow internet conversations so stealthily, why didn’t they STOP THIS!!??! Please, let’s pray to the saints of sanity that it’s just a rumor and the stars are not once more populating our world with (dare I say it?) the curse of Hollywood.
Still, Star Magazine has a picture of the youngest Simpson rubbing her stomach (indigestion, anyone?) and you know what that means, BABY ON BOARD! Or some bad tacos..
