As a result, observers assumed that Davidson would react in one of two ways: Anger or fear. Wrong. Find out how the “Saturday Night Live” (SNL) comedian, 28, responded to Kanye’s threatening music video below. Plus: Discover how Kim herself reacted (clue: It’s dramatically different than her younger boyfriend!).
Pete Davidson Has Reaction No One Expected To Kanye West’s Threats!
Kanye West seems to see himself battling in a feud against estranged wife Kim Kardashian’s boyfriend Pete Davidson. But Pete found an unexpected way to respond. And rather than retaliate against the rapper, the SNL star sees the humor in the situation, said an insider quoted by Page Six.
For instance, Davidson apparently checked out West’s “Eazy” video and watched Kanye’s avatar kidnapping and burying his own caricature (check it out at the end of this article!). And after viewing it, he finds it “hysterical,” revealed the source. But Kim’s boyfriend didn’t stop there in surprising observers with his reaction.
As a result of a famous rapper featuring him in a music video, Pete actually feels “flattered,” added the insider. And overall, Davidson does not feel threatened in any way by Kim’s estranged husband, added the source. But the SNL star also “takes it all with a grain of salt,” an insider told ET. And that allows Pete to step back and even at times ignore Kanye’s repeated social media and rap threats.
Kim Kardashian Reacts To Kanye West Threatening Her Boyfriend
While Pete Davidson tries to take the high road and not create his own music video threatening Kanye West, Kim Kardashian seems caught in the middle. But that’s nothing new for the “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” (KUWTK) star. Ever since Kim filed from divorce from Kanye about a year ago, the reality TV diva repeatedly has faced shade and angry outbursts on Instagram from her estranged husband.
As a result of Pete Davidson coming in for his own share of West’s anger, though, Kardashian and Davidson have actually gotten closer, shared the insider. And as Kim watches how her boyfriend handles Kanye’s threats, she appreciates him even more. For instance, Pete has used the situation “to grow in more ways than one including for himself and his relationship with Kim,” added the source.
“Pete is so understanding and has made an extreme effort to put any of his emotions aside,” noted the insider. And the SNL star seeks to offer “a support system for Kim during this difficult time and transition.” As a result, Kardashian herself has grown emotionally. And despite all the negative drama from Kanye, Kim and Pete have succeeded in creating “a positive, growing” relationship.
