Paparazzi took pictures of pete davidson in Hawaii this weekend with his Body Body Body costar Sui Wonder Hunt. Just last week, when they were holding hands at Universal Studios Hollywood, I was wonderingDo you think these two like-like each other? And this week they are make a pda on the beach. Case closed, I guess.
But the most attentive and curious viewers asked for something deeper: Where did his tattoos go? Why is there an empty space on this side of the collarbone and on the other? Davidson, some have pointed out, no longer has the tattoos he got in honor of his girlfriend Kim Kardashian.
Davidson and Kardashian dated for nine months, from October 2021 to August 2022, while his divorce from Kanye West was being finalized. Meanwhile, the comedian has added several tattoos dedicated to him on his crowded canvas of skin. There was “My girlfriend is a lawyer”. Gone! There were the names “Aladdin” and “Jasmine” after the Disney characters they played Saturday Night Live when she hosted. Gone! And finally, there was the first initial of the four names of her children. Gone! They are all gone!
It makes sense that he removes them. Now, his daughter is his co-star, and having someone else’s kid’s initials on you is… not recommended. Perhaps knowing this about himself — that he’s just as likely to take off a tattoo as he is to get one — he upped the ante with Kardashian. He stamped his name on his chest, as if branded with a hot poker. “KIM,” he said. So he will apparently have the scar (unless he has a really fantastic dermis on the retainer).
Davidson must know that the temporary tattoo industry has come a long way in recent years. Now you can get a tattoo that lasts about a year! I can see how it could take the romance out of covering yourself with tributes to other important people, but also repeatedly removing or covering up said tributes, like he’s done with the girlfriends even before Kardashian, kind of diminishes them too. At a minimum, it might be worth looking into.
And just one last note before I never think about Davidson’s collarbone again: he also seems to delete Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the other side of her collarbone.
