Only "Extra" spoke with Pete Wentz in Tampa about the recent media scrutiny of sister-in-law Jessica Simpson and her curves.

The Fall Out Boy bassist told us, "I think that the media puts too harsh of a spotlight on women in general and I think it's a bummer. It's bad for young women. I see it affecting young girls who come to our shows and that's a bummer."

He continued, "Real beauty is on the inside, man."

Wentz and Fall Out Boy performed during the NFL Pepsi Smash Super Bowl Bash on Thursday night in Tampa.
