AceShowbiz - While attending Michael Rubin's Fanatics bash in New Orleans ahead of Super Bowl LIX, Pete Davidson, 31, showed his arms, now mostly free of his once signature tattoo sleeves. The comedian wore a T-shirt and paired with basketball shorts, a bucket hat, sunglasses, and a black backpack.

Davidson's tattoo removal journey began over four years ago, inspired by his pursuit of sobriety and acting career. Over this period, he has reportedly spent over $200,000 on numerous laser tattoo removal sessions.

In a recent interview, he revealed his goal to have all his tattoos removed before turning 40. "No, I didn't realize it would take - like, when I'm 40, it'll all be gone, like the chest and the back," Davidson told Seth Meyers on "Late Night".

Davidson explained that the removal process involves multiple visits, with several weeks in between for healing. "It's at least seven visits," he explained. "And if it's black and white, it's a little easier. But if it's a color tattoo, it takes forever."

Reflecting on his past choices, Davidson said, "I made a lot of those decisions when, you know, before rehab. So I got the dumbest tattoos," recalling some of his least favorite designs, including a collection of cartoons smoking a blunt and The Muppets alongside the Tootsie Pop owl.

Earlier this week on the Today show, Davidson described the excruciating tattoo removal process as "pretty terrible" and offered a warning to those considering getting inked. "So if anybody out there is watching and thinking about getting a tattoo, make sure you really want to get it," he advised as he showed off his now-faded body art.

In the midst of his personal evolution, Davidson's career continues to thrive. He stars in the new film "Dog Man". With his fresh look, sobriety, and positive attitude, he is embracing a new chapter in his life with relish.
