AceShowbiz - Kenan Thompson isn't surprised to see how easy it is for Pete Davidson to date Hollywood "It" girls. In a new interview, Kenan shares why he thinks his former "Saturday Night Live" co-star is popular among girls.
"He's a sweet young man," Kenan told E! News correspondent Carolina Bermudez on Monday, December 5. "He's very kind, endearing, loves his mom and sister, and, you know, has hyper adoration for his father. He's just a good-hearted person."
The comedian further gushed over the "Meet Cute" actor. Despite his "rough" childhood growing up on the "streets of New York," Kenan said, "Inside, I don't think he's out to harm a piece of cotton. Like, he's just a good kid."
Kenan wasn't the only one who sang Pete praises while discussing his dating life. "SNL" cast member Chloe Fineman shared that she experienced first hand how "deeply charming" Pete was.
"And I remember my first year (on 'Saturday Night Live'), going to all my girlfriends and being like, 'I get it,' " Chloe said. She added she has "friends who have dated" 29-year-old Pete who "report back nice things."
Mikey Day also told Page Six at the event Pete is "cool" and a "very smart dude." He elaborated, "I don't think people know how smart he is because he's (always like), 'Yo, what's up? I live with my mom. I'm smoking weed.' But he's a very intelligent, well-spoken, interesting dude. I love Pete. He's the best."
Comedian Jay Pharoah, meanwhile, claimed that Pete himself confirmed the BDE rumors to him. During Jay's appearance on SiriusXM's "The Jess Cagle Show" last month, Jay recalled asking Pete why so many women are attracted to him. As for the answer, Jay said "it's his endowment," adding, "That's what he told me it is."
The "[Out of Office]" actor further detailed, "It's like nine inches. Pete Davidson, that's my guy. I love him." His BDE aside, Jay shared that his pal is also charming, saying that Pete is someone who is not afraid to get in touch with his feelings. "You gotta be able to listen," Jay raved. "Pete is just a sweet dude. He's sweet. He's vulnerable."
Pete is currently romantically linked with Emily Ratajkowski. Prior to dating the supermodel/actress, "The Suicide Squad" actor famously dated Kim Kardashian, Kate Beckinsale and Ariana Grande among others.
