Former Saturday Night Live regular Pete Davidson says doing comedy on the NBC show wasn’t always easy after being the punchline of his castmates’ jokes.
In an appearance on the Real Ones With Jon Berthnal podcast, the 29-year-old Davidson said that despite being in show business for nearly half his life, becoming the butt of jokes for his high-profile dating life made for some “confusing” moments.

“I’ve been in show business for, like, half my life almost, for 14 or 15 years and on a national TV show,” Davidson said. “In 12 years I’ve dated 10 people. I don’t think that’s that crazy, but to some people, that’s very interesting. That became all anyone would talk about.” He added that the high-profile status
