Pete Wentz, aka Mr. Ashlee Simpson, rocks hard as bassist for the commercially-successful band Fall Out Boy. But music is just the tip of the iceberg for the “renaissance” man. Though he dropped out of Depaul University’s political science program one quarter shy of graduation, his creative and intellectual exploits continue to flourish. He has written a book “The Boy With the Thorn In His Side,” a story based on nightmares he had as a child, designed a clothing line for DKNY, started a film production company Bartskull Films, came out with his own signature Squier Precision Bass, opened a couple of clubs in NYC and Chicago (his hometown), created several pieces for an art exhibit in L.A., and exerted his acting chops in popular shows like One Tree Hill, Californication, and CSI/NY. These Ray Ban sunglasses amp up his edgy style. And you thought this guy was just your average punk-rockin’ “sk8er boi.” Thought wrong. –rpuccia
