Guess Which Emo Rocker Was An Emo Goth In High School
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.

totally guessed it right

That was easy!

Ughh, I guessed Anthony Kiedis. Horrible guess, I know. But I had no idea!
July 22nd, 2009 at 8:56 am
I totally thought it was Anthony Kiedis too.
July 22nd, 2009 at 8:57 am
That was too easy. Knew it was him before even reading the description.

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.

I picked it up before reading too…he has a pretty distinct long face.
July 22nd, 2009 at 9:37 am
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.

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

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

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

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.
July 22nd, 2009 at 12:11 pm
I knew it! He still looks exactly the same.
July 22nd, 2009 at 4:45 pm
i knew it. just from the photo. :)

Hair,lips and chin gave him away.

Ahhh, Napalm Death sucks anyway, lol. Definitely looks like him, though.
July 23rd, 2009 at 10:35 am
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!)
