To this day Pete is living with his mother in the basement of a house that he had bought for her. The house is also on Staten island only a few blocks away from the street that he had grown up on. This informs us that his persona is loyal, trustworthy, and caring. As he cares and is close with his mother which illuminates a side of Pete that we might not see through the lenses of mainstream media. It also shows us that he is loyal as he has not moved to New York City this but remains in the less popular and substandard place where he grew up. This creates the star image that he is unlike these superficial celebrities and more like an average day-to-day.
