Looking back. Pete Wentz opened up about struggling with Fall Out Boy’s hiatus and his divorce from Ashlee Simpson.
“My life was just like … a bomb had gone off in it,” the bassist, 43, told Nylon in a cover story published on Tuesday, March 21.
He recalled his sudden rise to fame after Fall Out Boy’s 2005 album, From Under the Cork Tree, was released. “When we first went on TRL, there were two years where we were super famous, almost like One Direction-level. You couldn’t go anywhere or do anything,” the musician recalled. “The transition just happens, so there’s not even anything you think about with it, because there is no time.”
Starting in 2009, the rocker took time to be at home with Simpson, who he married in 2008, and their then-toddler, Bronx, and discovered that he needed to make some life changes. He realized he wasn’t even sure how to navigate the airport on his own.
“You’ve atrophied all of these life skills. I was like, ‘Oh. You have to figure out how to be happy as an adult,’” he explained to Nylon.
In February 2011, Simpson filed for divorce, citing “irreconcilable differences.” Wentz has since moved on with model Meagan Camper. They share son Saint, 8, and daughter, Marvel, 4. Simpson, for her part, married Evan Ross in 2014, and they welcomed daughter Jagger, 7, in 2015, and son Ziggy, 2, in 2020.
Fall Out Boy went on a hiatus in 2009 after several high-profile tours. The “Sugar We’re Going Down” performers all felt a break was needed.
“I wouldn’t use the word ‘breakup’ because that’s not true,” Wentz told MTV in 2009. “It’s a break – we’re decompressing. I’m making a new term for it: we’re decompressing right now. We’ve been doing this for eight years
Brad Pitt has a new co-star!
Following months of meetings, auditions and even several days of driving tests, Apple Studios, Joseph Kosinski and Jerry Bruckheimer look to have found their race car driver to steer their anticipated racing film set in the world of F1. Sources tell Deadline that Damson Idris has been tapped to co-star opposite Brad Pitt. Kosinski is directing.
Brent Lang Executive Editor “Snowfall” star Damson Idris will appear opposite Brad Pitt in a new Formula One racing film from “Top Gun: Maverick” director Joseph Kosinski. The untitled movie is being made by Apple Original Films and will be produced by Jerry Bruckheimer Films and Pitt’s Plan B Entertainment. Kosinski will produce the feature alongside seven-time Formula One champion Sir Lewis Hamilton under his Dawn Apollo Films banner, and Jerry Bruckheimer and Chad Oman of Jerry Bruckheimer Films. Ehren Kruger, who did similar honors on “Top Gun: Maverick,” is writing the screenplay. The racing feature stars Pitt as a former driver who returns to the sport. Idris will play his teammate. Aside from that, engines will be revved, finish lines will be crossed, cars will collide… OK, we really have no idea what happens on or off the track. But since the movie is being made in cooperation with Formula One, the action sequences will likely be a standout.

William Earl Fall Out Boy is back with their first record in five years, and although the musical landscape has changed dramatically since the pandemic and the rise of TikTok, “So Much (for) Stardust” returns to the classic sound many fans grew up on. While recent records like 2015’s “American Beauty/American Psycho” and 2018’s “Mania” were successful, Fall Out Boy took on a pop sheen that was a far cry from their punky hits like “Dance, Dance” and “Thnks fr th Mmrs.” For “Stardust,” the band — singer and guitarist Patrick Stump, bassist Pete Wentz, guitarist Joe Trohman and drummer Andy Hurley — worked again with Neal Avron, who produced the band’s biggest rock records, 2005’s “From Under the Cork Tree,” 2007’s “Infinity on High” and 2008’s “Folie à Deux.” The result isn’t a nostalgia trip, but rather a return to the group’s core strengths, with big riffs, huge singalong choruses, and lyrics that are in-tune with the woes of modern life. The band is also headed on a world tour this year, playing for the first time without Trohman, who is taking a break from the band to focus on his mental health.
