Despite his whirlwind romance with Kim Kardashian and reportedly missing work as a result, NBC executives have confirmed that Pete Davidson is still very present on the set of “Saturday Night Live.” On January 20, an NBC spokesperson told Us Weekly, “No rehearsals have been missed” on Davidson’s end and slammed the rumors as “not true.”
The statement comes after a source told The Sun that Davidson “has become a total diva at SNL” and missed rehearsals without repercussions. Boasting his happy relationship with Kardashian, it’d be no surprise if he indeed did miss rehearsals. But regardless of such, those at “SNL” aren’t the only feathers he’s ruffled with his newfound romance. Kanye West, Kardashian’s estranged husband, dropped a new track entitled “Eazy,” and he targets Davidson on one bar: “God saved me from that crash / Just so I can beat Pete Davidson’s a** (Who?)” raps West.
West has also purchased the home across the street from Kardashian, with a source telling People that he moved there in order to “have [their] kids over as much as possible.” Interestingly enough, Davidson has yet to visit Kardashian at home — but it’s probably just a matter of time (and scheduling).
