"You'll show up to set and you're playing yourself and [you're] like, 'Hey I'm a big idiot with a d--k that smokes weed,'" Davidson sharedReal Ones with Jon Bernthal
"I'm in my 20's and I've dated people. And for some reason, that's very crazy and interesting to people. I don't think it's interesting," Davidson explained."I've been in showbusiness for, like, half my life almost — for 14 or 15 years and on a national TV show. In 12 years I’ve dated 10 people. I don't think that's that crazy, but to some people, that’s very interesting. That became all anyone would talk about.
The"King of Staten Island" actor shared that the hubbub surrounding his love life has overshadowed the work he's put into his craft. Rather than for his acting or comedic chops, Davidson said many believe he's become famous for the beautiful women he dates -- which has led to insecurities about his career.
Davidson also revealed he's trying to move away from his comedic persona in order to be taken more seriously as an actor.
TooFab SNL is 🗑️ and Skeet is horrible for giving all those models std's
TooFab It's because you are
TooFab Must be so tough being white
TooFab And how many people did you mock on SNL?
TooFab Welllll.....
TooFab Grow some buddy. If you are a celeb people will make fun of you no matter what.
TooFab The truth is always painful, life's form of medicine, try healing yourself from it rather than taking it personal, that alone shows he hasn't a clue about a damn thing.
TooFab He's playing the next pan who's looking to put himself out there to be made a fool of just like all of those who thought that they too had found the Virgin Mary.
TooFab Well then Pete, stop acting like one. 🙄
TooFab It's SNL It's what they do
TooFab Must be hard to make a million dollars for a two minute self deprecating skit. The humanity.
TooFab Everyone is weak as f$k anymore is this the future everyone is a victim
TooFab If it walks like a duck...🤭
TooFab Pete Davidson, much like Kim Kardashian, doesn't 'date.' It's just your turn.
TooFab Poor baby.
TooFab So he basically caught on to the joke lol
TooFab Seems easy to get into character.
TooFab Meh. Just having fun.
TooFab He's either being disingenuous or he's incredibly naive. You don't date Kim Kardashian and only other super famous celebrities and expect privacy. He's famous for being famous. He's not landing Super Bowl commercials because he's an incredibly talented comedian.
TooFab He can stop with being the professional victim. He is lucky to have had SNL launch his career. He is a very lucky man.
TooFab If it helps, that's exactly how 98% of all people see him too.
TooFab I mean they aren’t wrong 🤷🏽♂️
TooFab He should!🧐🤓😁
