Because Quote by Pete Wentz

“It's strange - there's a public persona of me that does nothing for me: the side of me where it's 'US Weekly,' where 12 cars sit outside my house because of who I married. That side never shuts off. I would like that to shut off sometimes, yes.” quote by Pete Wentz — Download Open image
