‘I Was A Sad Boy.’ Pete Davidson Gets Real About Burning Off 200 Tattoos And We're Wincing Just Reading About It

Cinema Blend

Pete Davidson is known for his time on "Saturday Night Live" and his co-ownership of a Staten Island Ferry but he’s also a guy you’d likely recognize on the street if you saw him simply by all his tattoos. At least you used to. He’s in the process of having most of them removed and the process sounds absolutely horrible.  Davidson appeared on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" ahead of the "Saturday Night Live" 50th anniversary celebration, a show where he spent eight years, and the topic of his tattoos came up. It sounds like he’s done with tattoos, but he’s putting himself through what sounds like an incredibly painful process in order to get rid of them.
