Lately, we haven’t been able to stop talking about Pete Davidson. He’s got his own Netflix special (for which you had to sign an NDA to be in the audience of), he’s been dating and he’s claimed that his sexual awakening was sparked by Leonardo Dicaprio. And amidst all these headlines, the Saturday Night Live star has come forward to acknowledge just how much Ariana Grande did for his career.
Speaking of iconic couples, we spoke about Zendaya and Jacob Elordi’s romance on this episode of It’s Been A Big Day For…
In an interview with First We Feast, Pete Davidson ate a whole bunch of hot wings in one of his most honest interviews to date. He talked about Drake, Alexander Wang and all things SNL, but the most notable part of the interview was when he discusses his ex.
While chewing on some spicy wings the comedian became drenched in sweat. He started to talk about the paparazzi and his feelings towards them, in which, Ariana Grande got a little shoutout. He said: “It’s really annoying ‘cuz, like, I live in Staten Island and they come there now—‘cuz, like, Ariana Grande made me all famous and stuff. So, she, like—it’s all her fault. It is. She sent the wolves. Now…She made me—created me, whatever they say.”
So there you have it. He’s acknowledged that his exponential rise into fame was in fact, caused by none other than Ariana Grande. We love a comedy king that can state the obvious! If you’ve wondered what Ariana has to say about him, you don’t need to look further than this song.
While their relationship was a whirlwind and a half, Pete has also come forward to say he doesn’t pay attention to the media anymore.
“No, I stopped—I don’t really try to dress. I used to when I had the ‘gram. ‘Cuz you just scroll through…and you’re like, ‘Ooh, off-white shoes. I guess that’s what the cool kids are wearing.’ And then you realize, when you’re not online, that’s what broke kids think that’s what rich people should wear and it’s lame. It’s a really great feeling once you finally just give up.”
We love a woke king!
