In COED’s interview with Pete Wentz, you’ll read about how Wentz would rather interview Green Day over Elvis, had to work aound Snoop Dogg’s busy schedule and how he plans to bring the music video experince back to MTV with his new Friday night show “FN MTV.”
Check out interviews with Panic at the Disco and The Ting Tings on COED and College Candy, and be sure to watch the premiere of “FN MTV” tonight at 8PM on MTV.
Pete Wentz’s band, Fall Out Boy, for which he is the principal lyricist and bass player, has sold upwards of 5 million albums worldwide. Decadence Records, Wentz’s label, has signed bands like Gym Class Heroes, Panic at the Disco and The Academy Is…, who’ve all turned into massive successes. Clandestine Industries, Wentz’s clothing line and book publishing company, recently opened the flagship location in Wentz’s hometown of Chicago. He’s been busy in his personal life too, marrying his muse, Ashlee Simpson last month. And the two are expecting their first child later this year.
You’d think as a successful musician, entrepreneur and family man, Wentz would want to settle down a little, and soak it all in. Wrong! He’s just gearing-up for his biggest project yet: redefining the way we experience music videos on TV and the Web, as host of MTV’s new show, “FN MTV.”
So we got Wentz on the phone to talk to him about life, music and the next big thing in music video history!

Leave it to Tinseltown’s finest writer/director/whatever Judd Apatow to parody the critically-beloved music biography genre.
Hot off the heels from the future-classic Knocked Up (and awaiting the release of his new flick, Superbad this Friday) Apatow is preparing to release Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story on December 14 this year.
The official trailer for Walk Hard debuted at Comic-Con before the screening of Superbad to a rapturous response, and Apatow seems confident that it could garner some Oscar buzz, hence the deadline-safe release date.
Chiggity-check Walk Hard’s plot, cast and out-of-control cameos after the jump.
