Guess Which Emo Rocker Was An Emo Goth In High School

He "definitely had a pager"
July 22nd, 2009

Game time!! Can you guess which emo rocker (turned family man) just posted a tweet on his official Twitter profile pointing to a blogpost featuring a photo of the guy when he was a freshman in high school? Take a look at the photo and read the description that was posted with the photo and venture a guess:


yearbook photo of me freshman year. as you can tell from the way i looked than and now i had such a shitload of teen angst that it went into my late twenties. napalm death shut out tho. four year strong has a record out called “explains it all” that has their take on 90s songs.

ps definitely had a pager.

LMAO!! Napalm Death! I love it!! If you look closely, you should be able to figure out who it is. After the jump, find out who it is …


OMG … LOOOOOVE the yearbook photo! To be honest, I didn’t know it was Pete Wentz at first … it took some careful study. The hair!!! LOOOOVE it!! Where you right? If not, who did you think it was?

    Totally guessed right. :)

    Actually I recognized him right away, even before any of your hints. The eyes are the giveaway.

    That was easy!

  5. Kaci Says:

    Ughh, I guessed Anthony Kiedis. Horrible guess, I know. But I had no idea!

  6. Liz Says:

    I totally thought it was Anthony Kiedis too.

  7. Katie Says:

    That was too easy. Knew it was him before even reading the description.

  8. J Says:

    First thought Anthony Kiedis, one of the greatest rock musicians out there! Kudos to him. But then i remembered, nah, i’ve read his book and thats NOT him! And if you dared call Anthony or RHCP for that matter any sort of emo i would personally sue you Trent. LOL.

    Then i thought Marilyn Manson. Pete seemed to have a longer face back then, much like Marilyns now.

  9. Mela Says:

    I picked it up before reading too…he has a pretty distinct long face.

  10. shannon Says:

    Pete Wentz was my first guess! No mistaking that face. He’s about my age so that photo definitely looked like something taken during my high school years.

  11. nae Says:

    pete wentz was my first guess too! no doubt there is no mistaking that face!

  12. Mary Says:

    yeah, my first guess too was Pete. not a fan (at all!), but i still love Ashlee so it’s cool. haha

  13. ARod Says:

    Knew it! I love the “ps definitely had a pager” comment. haha

  14. DJWhoop Says:

    I also thought Anthony Kiedis for a sec, but he’s not emo.
    Then a little part of me also thought it was Lisa Marie Presley.

  15. Meagan Says:

    I knew it! He still looks exactly the same.

  16. jas Says:

    i knew it. just from the photo. :)

  17. Oscar in Miami Beach Says:

    Hair,lips and chin gave him away.

  18. Adam Bomb Says:

    Ahhh, Napalm Death sucks anyway, lol. Definitely looks like him, though.

  19. CRex Says:

    First thought was Anthony K, but then I realized that the photo has to be a younger pop-star-ish person. Then zeroing in on the eyeliner – I was like – DUH! Pete W

    I thought it was Lisa Marie Presley.. (don’t ask!)
