Pete Davidson made a surprising comeback to Saturday Night Live on November 2, marking his first appearance in nearly a year and showcasing a significant tattoo transformation.
According to E! News, the former SNL cast member joined his friend and host John Mulaney for a comedic skit titled “Port Authority Duane Reade.” The sketch began with Mulaney’s character asking Davidson if he wanted a flu shot, to which Davidson humorously replied that he preferred to browse for some retail items instead.
Wearing a short-sleeved shirt, Davidson’s notably less-inked arms caught the attention of fans, as they had previously been covered in tattoo sleeves. Just last month, the comedian shared that he had been undergoing a “major tattoo removal” process that started in 2020 and is nearing completion.
During a 2021 appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers, Davidson explained that he decided to remove his tattoos because it often took him three hours to cover them up before acting roles. He expressed his passion for acting, saying, “I honestly never thought that I would get an opportunity to act…and I love it a lot.”
Davidson’s return to SNL, along with his visible tattoo changes, has sparked excitement among fans and highlights his ongoing evolution as an artist.
