Fall Out Boy bassist Pete Wentz, 28, revealed to MTVU that he tried to kill himself. Pete tried to overdose on prescription pills a couple of years ago, because he was stressed:

"I got in my car. I remember I was listening to Jeff Buckley doing Leonard Cohen's 'Hallelujah' and sat there and took a bunch of [anxiety drug] Ativan in a Best Buy parking lot.

And I called up my manager because I was, at that point, completely out of my head with Ativan. And I was talking to him and I was slurring..

..my words, so he called my mom and my mom called me and she came and got me and we went to the hospital." Good thing he's dating Ashlee Simpson now, they can get Botox together to feel better about themselves.
