Really, Pete? Party boy Pete Wentz is up to his old tricks - again. This time he's followed through on a promise he made to Cobra Starship frontman Gabe Saporta after losing a bet. The result? He got his friend's face tattooed on his leg. I'm sure wife Ashlee Simpson-Wentz is really thrilled right now. As for Pete, the Jackass guys did it first. Do you feel silly yet? Details: "Well, I promised Gabe if 'Good Girls Go Bad' went platinum,
I would let him pick a tattoo to put on me," Wentz said in a statement. "A man
with such humble beginnings, of course, chose a self-portrait." As a result,
there is now a permanent mark on Wentz's calf that features Saporta's face and
the inscription "Gabey Baby Made Me Go Bad."
This is merely the latest shot in the public prank war that
has been going on between Wentz and Saporta for months. Last month at the MTV
Video Music Awards, Wentz wore a T-shirt that revealed Saporta's phone number,
and while he was unable to reveal all the digits on the live broadcast,
Saporta's number still got out there, forcing him to change it.
Saporta struck back a few weeks ago at Los Premios MTV,
where he announced Wentz's e-mail address (in Spanish!) during the broadcast.
For those keeping score at home, Saporta is definitely in
the lead, though according to Wentz, there may still be more to come. "I held
through with the bet," Wentz said. "But let's see if Gabe holds through with
his end of the bet if Hot Mess goes gold."]
This stunt is about as original as their bands. Enough said.
