Pete Davidson, the comedian and former “Saturday Night Live” star, has had quite the string of high-profile relationships.
From his whirlwind engagement to pop sensation Ariana Grande to his romance with reality TV star Kim Kardashian, Davidson’s love life has often captivated the public eye.
But with such a roster of beautiful women on his arm, one burning question remains: What’s the secret to his undeniable charm? Davidson recently opened up about this curiosity, and his answer might surprise you.
While it’s no secret that Davidson is a talented comedian and actor, what exactly makes him such a catch?
His past relationships include a who’s who of Hollywood’s most attractive women, including model Kaia Gerber, actress Kate Beckinsale, “Bridgerton” star Phoebe Dynevor, and, of course, his highly publicized engagement to Ariana Grande.
Even more recently, Davidson has been romantically linked to Kim Kardashian, continuing to spark the interest of fans and the media alike.
In a candid moment at the 9th Annual Patrice O’Neal Comedy Benefit Concert in New York City, Davidson revealed what he believes has made him so popular with women.
During his set, the 28-year-old comedian said, “There seems to be a curiosity about me, is what my friends tell me.” He further explained that he had been trying to find a way to explain his allure to others during an interview.
The analogy he used was unexpected but fitting: He compared himself to a discounted DVD found in a bargain bin at a 7-Eleven store.
“Some belong in the trash, like “Predator 2” or “Shrek Forever After”,” Davidson quipped, “while others are classics that don’t belong in the bin, like “Tropic Thunder”.”
Davidson continued, “I’m Tropic Thunder. I’m the diamond in the trash. It’s a steal.” His comparison was part of a larger reflection on his own attractiveness, which he seems to attribute not only to his career success but also to a kind of unexpected charm.
His humor, self-awareness, and unique persona appear to be key factors in his romantic success. Despite being linked to some of the most beautiful women in entertainment industry, Davidson’s relationships have often been brief—lasting only a few months or even weeks, with the exception of his engagement to Grande.
This curiosity has fueled speculation, but Davidson himself seems unfazed by the attention. When discussing his dating life, Davidson has been open about his preferences and red flags.
For instance, in an appearance on the “River Café Table 4” podcast, he humorously discussed how he likes to start a date with a meal or a movie.
However, he also revealed that one trait would immediately end a date for him: bad manners. “If my date was rude to the waiting staff,” he said, “I would immediately think, ‘Okay, never… this is it.'”
Though Davidson has often been the subject of media scrutiny, especially regarding his relationships, it appears that his charm lies in a combination of his self-deprecating humor, his laid-back personality, and perhaps his willingness to be honest about his imperfections.
This candidness has made him a relatable figure, contributing to his allure. Even Kim Kardashian, who has famously kept her love life under wraps, has been publicly smitten by him.
Reports suggest that Kardashian is “super into him,” although she has tried to keep their relationship low-key.
A source revealed to E! News that while Kim is not seeing anyone else, she is genuinely excited about her relationship with Davidson.
Davidson’s romantic life hasn’t come without its challenges, particularly with the ongoing public scrutiny.
His relationship with Kardashian, for example, has even sparked a few jabs from Kanye West, who recently referenced Davidson in his song “Eazy.” Despite these negative remarks, Davidson has managed to win over public opinion.
One Twitter user remarked, “If you’re taking shots at Pete Davidson, Pete Davidson has already won.”
In the end, Davidson’s popularity with women might just boil down to his unique blend of humor, humility, and the undeniable charisma that comes from being unapologetically himself.
Whether he’s the “diamond in the trash” or a “classic” in the making, Pete Davidson’s charm is certainly something that keeps the world intrigued.
It’s clear that his authenticity and wit have earned him not only a string of relationships with beautiful women but also a fanbase that continues to root for him.
