Pete Davidson understands that his celebrity skyrocketed after dating Ariana Grande.

During the SNL comedian's installment of Complex's "Hot Ones," the star, 26, ate hot wings and answered some equally burning questions. After admitting that he has "never eaten anything spicy," Davidson went through stories like the "annoying" moment that Bobby Flay was hired to cook the SNL cast dinner (on writing night), courtesy of Drake, adn even offered his former flame an unexpected shout-out when speaking about the paparazzi. "It's really annoying ‘cuz, like, I live in Staten Island and they come there now—‘cuz, like, Ariana Grande made me all famous and stuff," he confessed. "So, she, like—it's all her fault. It is. She sent the wolves. Now...She made me—created me, whatever they say."

Still, Davidson doesn't doesn't pay mind to what is being said about him on social media. "No, I stopped—I don't really try to dress. I used to when I had the ‘gram," he explained. "'Cuz you just scroll through…and you're like, ‘Ooh, off-white shoes. I guess that's what the cool kids are wearing.' And then you realize, when you're not online, that's what broke kids think that's what rich people should wear and it's lame."

As you probably recall, Davidson and his ex-fiance's romance ended in October 2018. The comedian recently said that he knew the whirlwind connection was over when the pop star's previous flame Mac Miller suddenly passed away.
