Everyone goes through that awkward sexual awakening moment as a teen at some point and it almost always involves someone ridiculously good-looking. For Saturday Night Live‘s Pete Davidson, his big moment wasn’t some attractive model from a magazine or anything you’d expect. It was none other than Leonardo DiCaprio.
Chatting to Paper Magazine, the Saturday Night Live star’s renowned BDE was brought up, which in turn led to a tangent about him being the sexual awakening for many young women.
After expressing how weird it is to be the cause of many people’s fapping material, Pete revealed that he used to “jerk off to Leonardo DiCaprio” for “his acting.” Sure, Pete.
Fleshing out his own big sexual awakening moment, Pete says he used to have a “HUGE” (the all caps is needed) crush on Leo and went all teen fan girl over the Hollywood star.
“Yeah. I used to have a HUGE crush on Leonardo DiCaprio. I had this huge poster of him from The Beach in my room, and there used to be, like, ‘Leo love books’… Do you remember?
“Like, right when Titanic came out [when I was] in like third or fourth grade, he was just like, ‘teen milk.’ There were love books and I had all of them. He was the coolest.”
As for whether he’s actually met Leo given how these two are part of the Hollywood A-list, Pete says he’s met his teen crush “twice” but has done nothing more than “shaken hands” before running away because it’s a little much for him and his hormones to handle.
Hey, we certainly understand the fascination with Titanic–The Beach era Leonardo DiCaprio. The dude was hawt stuff back in the day.
We also shouldn’t be surprised that Pete Davidson had no qualms over telling folks about his fapping habits. Hell, he certainly wasn’t shy about telling everyone how much he jerked off to his ex-fiance, Ariana Grande.
So good on you, Pete, for sharing your Leonardo DiCaprio crush with everyone. All that big Leo energy seems to have given way to all that BDE so it’s been a win-win for the Saturday Night Live star.
