Pete Davidson is reclaiming his throne in Hollywood.
The King of Staten Island star made a rare public appearance Dec. 16, stepping out at a gala performance of All In: Comedy About Love By Simon…
Davidson
David, the daughter of Curb Your Enthusiasm‘s Larry David, revealed a lot about her two-and-a-half year romance with Davidson in her 2020 book of essays, No One Asked For This. The couple first began dating in 2016, with David writing that they were “kindred spirits.” But she admitted Davidson’s mental health struggles had taken a toll on her.
“Previously, self-harm and suicide threats had come about from trivial circumstances, incidents that would go from 0 to 100, which were so momentarily urgent, like the last minute of an escape room before the time goes off, except I’m the only one in the room and all the clues are tricks,” she recalled. “Once he was back in a good headspace, I wouldn’t be able to bring myself to do it either; I was too mentally exhausted to do anything besides emotionally recover from the chaos of the week before.”
After she ended their relationship while on a family trip in 2018, David attempted to reconcile with Davidson in a moment of weakness. But she was shocked when he later sent her a text message to reveal he had moved on.
Two days later, she opened Instagram to see her ex had “uploaded a photo of himself with his hand covering his face to show off his new finger tattoos,” she wrote. “My name, which had been written in cursive across his ring finger, was now covered over with black ink.”
Live From New York, it’s time to earn a paycheck.
Several of Saturday Night Live’s most iconic past and current cast members reflected on their time on the series, with a few, including Pete Davidson, revealing how they spent their first SNL paychecks.
Do you guys know what they pay us?” Pete, 31, who starred on eight seasons of the legendary comedy show before his 2022 departure, quipped to the camera in the video in honor of SNL’s 50th anniversary shared on the New York magazine Instagram account Dec. 4. “It’s like three grand an episode, so I think I got dinner.”
Pete wasn’t the only former cast member who kept it real about how far their payment went. Jason Sudeikis expressed similar sentiments about the amount, though he divulged his more practical expenditure. And also revealed that it wasn’t much money.
“I mean you don’t really make enough money to make big purchases,” the Ted Lasso star—who was on the cast for nine years and spent two years as a writer—revealed. “So, I think New York rent was probably the biggest purchase I made after writing on SNL the first year.”
Live from New York, it’s mom’s night out!
Pete Davidson enjoyed a mother-son outing with his mom Amy Waters Davidson in Brooklyn, where they sat front row to watch the Brooklyn Nets take on the Charlotte Hornets.
The duo was all smiles as they posed for photographers at the game. Pete donned a white beanie, a brown sweatshirt from Lehigh University and cuffed jeans, while his mom was chic in a black sweater, blue jeans and a classic quilted Chanel purse.
Amy shared the photo on Instagram, as well as a solo shot of Pete giving a thumbs up, and captioned it with the blue heart, basketball and heart-face emojis.
The mother of two celebrated Pete’s 31st birthday three days prior with a sweet Instagram tribute Nov. 16 that included a handful of throwback photos, including one of Pete as a baby being held by his late father Scott Davidson.
Jenn Tran & Devin Strader
Status: Split
During the season 21 finale of The Bachelorette, it looked like The Bachelor alum Jenn Tran was finally getting her happy ending with her final pick Devin Strader. But Jenn, 26, revealed on After the Final Rose back in September that Devin, 28, gave her the cold shoulder as soon as the cameras stopped rolling.
“He was making bold proclamations of love and then suddenly the next day he was like, nothing and he denied ever being in love,” Jenn told host Jesse Palmer during the Sept. 3 episode. “All the promises he had made to me, all of the love that he had wanted to give to me wasn’t there anymore.”
Drama continued to play out when Devin shared a 13-minute video recounting his side of the story to Instagram, where in addition to taking “accountability” he shared insight into why he ended the relationship in a 15-minute phone call.
While Jenn alleged he dumped her during the call in August, he claimed that Jenn demanded to know what was wrong as he tried to find a way to break the news in person.
“I didn’t really know what else to do,” he explained, noting he had been waiting to tell her in person. “She kind of forced my hand.”
Since then, Jenn waltzed over to Dancing With the Stars and possibly into the heart of her partner Sasha Farber as they have continued to spark romance rumors since their Oct. 29 elimination.
Pete Davidson is the king of tattoo removal.
The SNL alum stepped out alongside his longtime pal Machine Gun Kelly for the sneak preview of The Room at the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles amid undergoing the process of having his ink removed—and the results of the treatment are jaw-dropping.
In a photo from the Oct. 23 outing, Pete posed next to the “Lonely Road” artist while wearing cargo pants and a red Fire Department of New York T-shirt, which showed off his practically bare forearms. The clean look was a noticeable transformation from his previous appearance, which included dozens of small tattoos in black ink up and down both of his arms.
And that’s not the only reason his attire for the event was significant. The King of Staten Island star’s FDNY shirt was also a heartwarming nod to his late father, Scott Matthew Davidson, who died on September 11, 2001, as a first responder at the Twin Towers.
