Can you guess which Hollywood celeb was spotted out and about on his way to a SoCal recording studio while wearing a very shiny gold mask?

It’s unclear if this celeb (who was in attendance at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards this past Sunday night here in NYC) is trying to launch a new fashion trend, is embarrassed about something or was just feeling unpretty but he deffo garnered a lot of attention by wearing this mask. After the jump, find out who it is …

Okay, you’re gonna have to take my word on this … it really is Pete Wentz. Petey was in a fun mood on the red carpet at the VMAs this past Sunday … as I mentioned before, he was answering questions posed to him in foreign languages. Methinks this new look is another example of his cheeky mood. I dunno … it’s a good look, no?

Either a cheeky mood or he’s just eff’n nuts – I dunno.
maybe he’s promoting a new song/music vid…. ?
Ah yeah, by side view you can tell its him XD That’s strange..the mask seems like it would have been hot, especially with those black clothes. I would have died.
I totally knew it was Pete…I am good!!
It was the jacket that did it for me. Totally Pete
That is +1 creepy.
I like the mask better than his own face, sorry.

Huh I actually managed to guess right.
Maybe he ran out of eyeliner and didn’t want to go out sans makeup?
He is so ridiculous.He knows he’s on the way out and has to do these crazy things to keep people talking about him.Stupid is as stupid does.
I think he stole the look and “quote” from Donnie Darko…..or maybe he is just crazy.
didn’t John Mayer already do the answer the question in another language thing?
Looks like a mold of Ashlee’s face.
dammit, Trent. read the title, and immediately thought Michael Jackson, before even looking at the picture.
I think it has something to do with the whole “viral marketing” game that he got sucked into by some band. idk, he talks about it on his website.
kinda cool…he is known for being a little left of center haha
pete wentz sucks balls he lets underage kids drink at his night club hes a loser
This is all linked to a viral campaign done by a good friend of mine. He’s playing along to the story. Check out the article.
