Pete Wentz is tired of being the victim of a "gay witch hunt." The Fall Out Boy rocker, who is expecting his first child with new wife Ashlee Simpson, insists he is happily married and only interested in women.
Pete, who has previously referred to himself as "half gay", told Out magazine: "When I'm going down the street I get called a fag all the time. I'm still getting called the same names as when I was 13."
"There's a little bit of a gay witch hunt. I don't know if it's to bust homophobia wide open or get more attention. It's like, 'This person's gay, this person's gay, this person's gay.'"
"When I said that I make out with dudes, there was a slight sense of sexual rebellion in that. And I probably even made it a bigger deal than it was. The last time I experimented was probably when I was 22."
"I've always felt this relentless heterosexual drive."
Pete also laughed off rumors Ashlee's father Joe - an ordained Baptist minister - banned him from visiting the family home last year.
The 29-year-old rocker said: "That rumor was such bulls**t. We laughed about it. Joe was like, 'We should take a picture in front of the Christmas tree holding hands.'"
"I know I'm going to get a reaction when I say things. I don't get on stage and give a social diatribe. I am a performer and an entertainer."
