Pete Wentz is being sued by a guy who claims the makeup-wearing, emo rocker and his security beat him up at a Fall Out Boy show last year.
According to a lawsuit obtained by TMZ, Andy Kallas claims he was watching the boys perform at Schuba's Tavern in Chicago, when Wentz and his peeps beat him to a pulp for several minutes. Kallas claims he suffered "serious injuries to his head, mouth and face." The way the lawsuit reads, the attack was totally unprovoked.
But here's the deal. We're told Kallas was loud, obnoxious and heckling the band before the incident.
Kallas is suing both Wentz and the club for an unspecified amount in damages.
Wentz's rep tells TMZ, "This case is meritless. We looked into it and the facts don't support his claims. We will vigorously defend this case in court. "

I thought this was seriously going to be about him licking some guys ass. Isn't he the guy that was emailing camera phone pix of his boner to other men a year or 2 ago?
Quotes "CoolGirl2008 - She got caught on Saturday Night Live, did a hoedown and ran off stage."
Really who doesn't know this! Come on you could have done better than that, its not like the Ashlee lip sync happened last night!
it has to have been just Pete's security. Pete couldn't kick his own butt
if we are to reason the beating was due to obnoxious behavior, maybe wentz should sign himself up for a little vaca in guantanamo, i hear they have great water boarding...grow up pete, you're not good enough to be this big an a-hole- schmuck
Does he lip synch like his girlfriend Ashlee Simpson?
She got caught on Saturday Night Live, did a hoedown and ran off stage.
he knows how to pick them.
Why would ANYONE announce to the world that you got your ass kicked by a Fall Out Boy????
TMZ says "But here's the deal. We're told Kallas was loud, obnoxious and heckling the band before the incident."
So what? That is not provication and does not allow them to assault him. If he threw something at them or hit them then that is provication. He's gonna win or settle big!
So...what kinda Daddy is Petey gonna make, Huh ????? Kinda cranky, ani't he ?? Hope he doesn't put the low class boot to Ashlee.
I don't think you can assault someone for heckling. I think they just admitted they are guilty.
All the judge has to do is look at Pete and he will KNOW He couldnt kick an ants ass! This guy is so in the closet!

You suck a**wipe. People who heckle and verbally assault others do not deserve justice.
And in fact there was a case a few years back where someone pushed a guy verbally abusing him in an airplane, the a*hole died. The guy who pushed him was not convicted.
People shouldn't be allowed to get away with needlessly abusing others verbally. And you people defending them should be dragged into the street and shot. You're what's wrong with this society. And TMZ can go along right with you.
to add to "Kate's" comments......"and by one who wears guy-liner no less!"
Jeez "opnex", take a vallium. A bit on edge today? People shouldn't be allowed to "needlessly abuse someone verbally" but taking someone out in the street and shooting them is all good? Hmmmmmmmm...
