Pete Wentz is the new Paris Hilton

Yesterday some, uh, private photos emerged of Fall Out Boy's Pete Wentz. The pictures were taken on his sidekick, which someone hacked into it and spread all over the internet. I undertsand how he could have not seen this coming. It just seems so unlikely that something like this would happen to a celebrity.

Anyway, here is a statement Pete supposedly released yesterday:

so as some of you obviously know someone hacked into my sidekick and took pictures off of it. this was very upsetting and a total invasion of privacy. i can't explain to you how it feels. whats even more absurd to me is that anyone would care to see a couple of racy pictures of some shitty, dirty boy. after feeling badly about this for about 24 hours, i am now ready to get back to laughing.

its been a tough couple of weeks for me lately. the only good thing about times of adversity is that you realize who your real friends and fans are- and the rest go away- which in my mind is an ok thing. i just wanted to take the time to thank the people who continually stand by my side- a special thanks to absolutepunk.net and mikey way for being amazing.

the moral of the story: if you really dont want pictures of yourself to end up on the internet. dont take the pictures.

now please return to the shittalking at whatever messageboard you are at.

OMG! gaah. i forgot the most important part - how the fuck did santino not win? santino > pete wentz - for sure - thought i could have understood if daniel won, but her? blah.

now you can really go back.

Now, I was totally with him until, "OMG! Gaah." Way to make it worse for yourself, Pete.

I have the absolutely NOT SAFE FOR WORK pics after the jump.

OMG! Gaah!
