Pete Davidson Wiki & Net worth
Pete Michael Davidson was born on Staten Island on November 16, 1993. Amy and Scott Matthew Davidson are his parents. Casey, his younger sister, is his only sibling.
Pete’s father died on 9/11 when he was seven years old. His father worked as a firefighter in New York City and was last seen running into the Marriott Trade Center moments before it collapsed.
Pete’s sadness was very distressing, and he later expressed it by acting out at school. He had a habit of getting himself into problems. He later confessed that he had suicide thoughts and that Kid Cudi’s music had saved his life.
Pete graduated from Xaverian High School in 2012 and enrolled at St. Francis College, but left after one semester to pursue his passion for comedy.
Career of Pete Davidson
At the age of 16, Davidson performed his first stand-up comedy show at a Staten Island bowling alley. Failosophy, an MTV comedy series, was his first onscreen debut.
Following that, he performed on other reality shows before having his first televised standup performance on Gotham Comedy Live, a Comedy Central show that spotlights up and coming comedians.
He went on to make further stand-up appearances and a brief appearance on “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” before joining the cast of “Saturday Night Live.”
He was offered the opportunity to audition because of his friendship with Bill Hader, whom he met while filming a small part in 2015’s “Trainwreck.”
On September 27th, 2014, he made his debut on SNL’s 40th season opener. Pete was one of the youngest cast members of all time, and the first cast member born in the 1990s, at the age of 20.
His performance in the first season received critical acclaim, and Davidson is frequently lauded for being accessible to audiences and for mocking delicate and taboo subjects, including those that are perilously near to his own life and emotions, such as the 9/11 events.
When the 44th season of Saturday Night Live finished, critics in the Washington Post hailed Davidson as the show’s breakout star and most memorable performer.
In April 2016, Davidson taped his first Comedy Central stand-up special. In January 2019, Davidson announced that he would be touring alongside John Mulaney for a limited run of “Sundays with Pete & John” comedy gigs.
