“#Hilarie Burton Points Out How Problematic Pete Wentz\u2019s One Tree Hill App<\/a>earance Was!
\n<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\nShe has a point!<\/p>\n

Looking back, One Tree Hill<\/em> alum Hilarie Burton<\/strong> can\u2019t believe Pete Wentz<\/strong> ever guest-starred as himself on the show! Not because she\u2019s not a fan, but because she feels sorry for the way the Fall Out Boy<\/strong> member\u2019s reputation was kinda ruined based on their onscreen affair!<\/p>\n

As Tree Hill<\/em> stans surely remember, Pete appeared in three episodes of Season 3, but he wasn\u2019t playing a character! Instead, Burton, who portrayed Peyton Sawyer, struck up a relationship with the bassist while working at popular all-ages nightclub and concert venue Tric. He later accompanied her friend group to a cabin in the woods where things got a bit heated.<\/p>\n

Mind you \u2014 the TV characters were all seniors in high school! So that meant the fictional version of Pete was a rocker in his late 20s totally macking on a high schooler!<\/p>\n

On the borderline illegal romance, the actress told People<\/em>:<\/p>\n

\u201cPoor Pete. Pete really thought he was just coming on the show to play like, a cool dude. And the next thing you know, it looks like he\u2019s having an affair with a high school girl.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Yikes! The 38-year-old star added:<\/p>\n

\u201cThat is forever now on TV. You don\u2019t get to takesie backsie that one.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

But worse, she doesn\u2019t even think the musician realized what he was getting himself into when joining the show!<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t think he realized our characters were in high school because we were all in our 20s in real life.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Pete\u2019s not the only one to blame for this eyebrow-raising romance! The CW<\/strong> celeb didn\u2019t even pick up on the major age gap between her character and the hottie until after watching the episode! Jeffrey Dean Morgan<\/strong>\u2018s wife recalled:<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd so it wasn\u2019t until even I watched it back that I was like, \u2018Oh, there\u2019s a lot of insinuation in here. I thought we were just kissing buddies, but this looks bad in the edit.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Whoops! They wouldn\u2019t be the only teen soaps to cross the lines for a dramatic plot, though! And it also sounds like the bassist was a \u201cgood sport\u201d the entire time on set. Sophia Bush<\/strong> chimed in, remembering a time when the now-42-year-old (he was at least only 27 at the time!) \u201cwas willing to do his makeup in a bathroom with five girls,\u201d continuing:<\/p>\n

\u201cSo he\u2019s really a team player.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
