Pete Davidson Skips Out On SNL Rehearsals For Kim Kardashian?!
Saturday Night Live insiders told the Sun that Pete Davidson behaves like a “diva” at the show. And one source even alleged that the 28-year-old skipped SNL rehearsals in favor of getting cozy with his girlfriend Kim Kardashian. As a result, the insider claimed Pete has annoyed his co-workers at SNL.
But the source didn’t stop there. Going into detail, the SNL insider claimed that Davidson has spent so much time in Los Angeles with Kardashian that it seems impossible for him to focus on the show. For instance, just days before the January 15 show in New York City, Pete got cozy with Kim in Los Angeles. And the source alleged that Davidson gets treated in a different way than the rest of the cast.
“Pete has become a total diva at SNL. He missed the first few days of rehearsal last week and was still allowed to be in Saturday’s show,” claimed the insider. “Normally, if you miss any rehearsals, you are out of the show on Saturday night, and the cast is starting to turn on him.”
And the source also expressed annoyance at Davidson’s special security detail. Pete has allegedly hired security for himself whenever he steps outside the SNL building. But in contrast, “Colin [Jost] married an actual movie star [Scarlett Johansson],” pointed out the insider. “And yet Pete is getting more attention.”
SNL Reacts To Pete Davidson Skipping Rehearsals Rumors
But in response to the rumors that Pete Davidson missed rehearsals, “Saturday Night Live” representatives told ET that the allegations are all false. As for the 28-year-old comedian skipping other SNL duties? “Not true,” summed up one SNL spokesperson.
And the show’s reps also denied that Davidson seems so focused on Kim Kardashian that he can’t fulfill his responsibilities. Kim, 41, has not caused Pete to miss “any rehearsals at all,” added one rep.” As evidence, SNL insiders point to Davidson’s appearance in the SNL “Cold Open” sketch.
In that episode, Pete portrayed a Joe Biden from a universe where all life runs smoothly. And Davidson as Biden even mocked the attention to his romance with Kardashian. “Everyone on Earth is better off in the real world except one man named Pete Davidson. This world is maybe more fun for him,” joked Pete.
