Pete Davidson Is Leaving ‘Saturday Night Live’

Author Laila Abuelhawa
May 20th, 2022 5:05 PM
Pete Davidson attends The 2022 Met Gala Celebrating "In America: An Anthology of Fashion" at The Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 02, 2022 in New York City.

Pete Davidson is leaving Saturday Night Live after this season’s end; the season finale is tomorrow night, featuring Russian Doll‘s Natasha Lyonne as host and musical guest Japanese Breakfast.

Per The Hollywood Reporter, the comedian has been a staple for the past eight seasons after joining the show as one of the youngest-ever cast members at the age of 20. Davidson will now star in a new Peacock comedy, Bupkis which is inspired by his life and will be executive produced by Michaels.

SNL has always cycled through its top talent during its 47 seasons as many of its breakout stars moved on to other projects. In recent years, Michaels has shown an increased willingness to allow time away from the sketch comedy for his in-demand stars to do other projects — many of which he also produces.

The status of fellow SNL stars Kate McKinnon, Kenan Thompson, Cecily Strong and Aidy Bryant have all been under watch, but it is unclear if any will follow Davidson’s leave.

2022 Met Gala: Ranking Best and Worst Looks

  • 91. Jordan Roth

    Share

    The theater producer really brought the drama with this horrifying look. From head to toe, Jordan Roth made sure every aspect of his ensemble would terrify the masses.

  • 90. Jessie Buckley

    Share

    Well, uh, this is one way to get noticed at the Met. Actress Jessie Buckley sported a comically-drawn mustache to pull her look together.

  • 89. Amy Schumer

    Share

    Amy Schumer looks like a hungover sleuth with her trench coat dress and black shades.

  • 88. Charles Wintour Shaffer and Elizabeth Cordry Shaffe

    Share

    Anna Wintour's daughter-in-law showed up looking very basic, trying to make a gown decorated with bows work... which it - sadly - didn't.

  • 87. Autumn de Wilde

    Share

    Autumn de Wilde is very much giving Mary Poppins vibes with this sparkling Supernanny-looking dress and bow.

  • 86. Awkwafina

    Share

    Not only does this coral color wash Awkwafina out, but the cut of the gown does not flatter her in the slightest.

  • 85. Ashley Park

    Share

    We are not loving this combination of the bubble gum pink and dark feathers combo the 'Emily In Paris' actress wore to the event.

  • 84. Sarah Jessica Parker

    Share

    SJP mixed the Queen of Hearts with punk in this very busy ensemble and we've got to say, we don't like this mess.

  • 83. Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker

    Share

    Kourtney's ensemble is just plain ugly in so many ways. The loose cuffs on her cropped white dress shirt completely swallow her figure up top, while her clashing cream skirt looks like shapewear that wasn't supposed to be seen.

  • 82. La La Anthony

    Share

    The host is beautiful, but the ensemble is chaotic. The cutouts take away from what would have been a gorgeous gown.

  • 81. Franklin Leonard

    Share

    The film executive's hip area is quite... eye-catching. His ensemble is weirdly entrancing and we can't tell if we hate it or love it.

  • 80. Denée Benton

    Share

    The gorgeous actress wore a clashing red and pink gown at the event, which would have stunned had she stuck with one color.

  • 79. Evan Mock

    Share

    Evan Mock is giving us 'Bridgerton' meets Manhattan in this pastel yellow number.

  • 78. Shawn Mendes

    Share

    Shawn Mendes evoked his inner Gaston from 'Beauty and the Beast' with this Tommy Hilfiger pea coat.

  • 77. Chloë Grace Moretz

    Share

    If it weren't for her showing some midriff, Chloë Grace Moretz could easily be mistaken for a senior citizen with her jacket and trousers.

  • 76. Stromae

    Share

    Though we love the plaid cape addition to his suit, Stromae's choice of hairstyle doesn't match the aesthetic.

  • 75. Janicza Bravo

    Share

    The 'Zola' director is edgy in an unconventional suit paired with golden details.

  • 74. Julianne Moore

    Share

    Julianne Moore's classic white ensemble is taken to a higher level with her voluminous hairdo.

  • 73. Phoebe Bridgers

    Share

    Phoebe Bridgers kept it simple with a body-hugging shimmering dress and a dark, bold lip.

  • 72. Priscilla Presley

    Share

    Priscilla Presley looks like rockstar royalty in this simple satin gown.

  • 71. Austin Butler

    Share

    With a face like that, Austin Butler could be wearing nothing but an adult diaper and we'd be drooling.

  • 70. Fredrik Robertsson

    Share

    Along with everyone else, we thought self-proclaimed fashion addict Fredrik Robertsson was Jared Leto! His look reminds us of a biblically accurate depiction of an angel, and we are both terrified and mesmerized.

  • 69. Elon Musk

    Share

    The new owner of Twitter had fun with the photographers at the Met Gala. He gets extra points because we don't want him messing with our algorithm.

  • 68. Future

    Share

    Future wore dress shorts and a very elaborate face mask, and it somehow works! We're loving the leg tattoos being shown off.

  • 67. Cole Sprouse

    Share

    Hollywood's Tin Man, Cole Sprouse wore head to toe silver, down to his shoes.

  • 66. Camila Mendes

    Share

    The 'Riverdale' actress mixed Old Hollywood with new age in this gorgeous golden gown.

  • 65. Ansel Elgort

    Share

    The actor looks like he will be mistaken for the help all night long. But if people are giving him their empty glasses, at least he looks crisp!

  • 64. Vanessa Hudgens

    Share

    The host never fails to serve a look. Elegant and sexy in black mesh with intricate lace detailing, down to the hands.

  • 63. Anderson .Paak

    Share

    It is always a joy to see what Anderson .Paak will wear. Though we wouldn't have paired that blue undershirt with his outfit, he makes it work with his charismatic personality.

  • 62. Leslie Odom Jr.

    Share

    We are loving Leslie Odom Jr.'s headpiece and cropped tux.

  • 61. Paapa Essiedu

    Share

    We love when a man wears a suit that is unexpected and the actor's wide-leg velvet trousers are so chic!

  • 60. Harris Dickinson

    Share

    The actor's pants crotch is incredibly long, but somehow works with his entire look! Cheers to trying something very different and executing it well.

  • 59. Kaia Gerber

    Share

    Being a model and daughter of the legendary Cindy Crawford really gives you a leg up, but Kaia's wild curls and intricately cutout gown are undeniably stunning.

  • 58. Adrien Brody and Georgina Chapman

    Share

    We love a stunning couple at the Met Gala. Adren looks dapper in his tux, while girlfriend and Havey Weinstein's ex-wife wore a beautiful red layered gown.

  • 57. Nicki Minaj

    Share

    Nicki Minaj looks fantastic in leather pants and a feathered, skirted top.

  • 56. Dakota Johnson

    Share

    Dakota Johnson's robe is very much, "I woke up like this and I'm still more fabulous than all of you."

  • 55. Bella Hadid

    Share

    Bella Hadid rocked leather and lace with her corset and skirt combo.

  • 54. Amber Valletta

    Share

    The actress embodied the gold memo, matching her dress to her locks.

  • 53. Tommy Dorfman

    Share

    Tommy Dorfman making a statement on the red carpet this edgy shiny leather gown, outfitted with black gloves.

  • 52. Sebastian Stan

    Share

    We couldn't have predicted the Winter Soldier wearing hot pink from head to toe at the Met Gala, yet here we are!

  • 51. Lizzo

    Share

    It wouldn't be an event with Lizzo's flute, which matches her gilded draping jacket!

  • 50. Jack Harlow

    Share

    The rising rapper kept it dapper in an espresso satin suit.

  • 49. David Harbour and Lily Allen

    Share

    We're loving David Harbour's cane and top hat, matching wife Lily Allen's feathery gown style.

  • 48. Khloé Kardashian

    Share

    After a long hiatus from the red carpet, Khloé Kardashian rocked the Met Gala in a chic golden gown and billowing black gloves.

  • 47. Laura Harrier

    Share

    The actress is breathtaking in pearls and gloves with her Old Hollywood gown.

  • 46. Gemma Chan

    Share

    The photos do not do Gemma Chan's very elaborate ensemble justice. Because her dress fans out, she is giving a very one-dimensional effect as she moves.

  • 45. Cara Delevingne

    Share

    Magician, but make it fashion.

  • 44. Lenny Kravitz

    Share

    Lenny Kravitz always somehow looks like a pirate, but we love it nonetheless. The singer incorporated leather and lace, which many others have done at this year's event.

  • 43. Kerry Washington

    Share

    Kerry Washington looks amazing in anything, and that's true here: the actress is absolutely stunning in this mesh gown.

  • 42. Kylie Jenner

    Share

    Here comes the bride! Kylie Jenner wore an Off-white wedding dress with a white backwards ball cap under her veil.

  • 41. Alessandro Michele and Jared Leto

    Share

    Double trouble! Jared Leto coordinated to twin with Italian fashion designer Alessandro Michele and it really is hard to tell the two apart!

  • 40. Chloe Bailey

    Share

    Chloe Bailey isn't afraid to take fashion risks, but her asymmetrical-sculpted gown is so fun and chic!

  • 39. Normani

    Share

    From her side hat, to her sculpted stomach, Normani served at this year's Met Gala.

  • 38. Winnie Harlow

    Share

    Winnie Harlow's headpiece and frilling ensemble is angelic.

  • 37. Yahya Abdul-Mateen II

    Share

    Yahya's gold-adorned opera jacket is a refreshing take on incorporating the Gilded Age.

  • 36. Swizz Beatz and Alicia Keys

    Share

    Swizz Beatz and Alicia Keys showed out for their city, with Swizz rocking his Yankees while Alicia wore the city on her sleeve -- literally.

  • 35. Kodi Smit-McPhee

    Share

    Kodi Smit-McPhee paid homage to casual Fridays with a button-up shirt and denim, which are actually made of fine leather. His red opera gloves somehow elevate this seemingly casual look to a high fashion level.

  • 34. Pete Davidson and Kim Kardashian

    Share

    Showing up fashionably late, and we mean last, a blonde Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson look a bit mismatched at the Met. Kim evokes Old Hollywood glamor, while boyfriend Pete looks like security.

  • 33. Fabiola Beracasa Beckman

    Share

    The film producer looks so elegant in an all cream white gown, which perfectly accentuates her figure.

  • 32. Dove Cameron

    Share

    The biblically accurate angel memo must have gone out to Dove Cameron as well, and we suddenly feel itchy -- in a good way!

  • 31. Claire Danes and Hugh Dancy

    Share

    Claire Danes showed up her husband with this beautiful cream-colored gown and black face veil.

  • 30. Emma Stone

    Share

    Emma Stone stood out in a short white dress, with feather trim, looking so edgy and simple.

  • 29. Blake Lively

    Share

    Co-chair Blake Lively's gown in its first form is bronze, but after it "oxidizes" like the Statue of Liberty, Blake's gown evolves into a beautiful teal hue. Her commitment and attention to detail is the Virgo in her.

  • 28. Michelle Yeoh

    Share

    Michelle Yeoh looks like an elegant vision in this green off-the-shoulder showstopper!

  • 27. Kacey Musgraves

    Share

    Kacey Musgraves is stunning in an Old Hollywood-inspired gown and makeup.

  • 26. Venus Williams

    Share

    Venus Williams is serving us on the red carpet in this super chic black ensemble! So stunning yet so simple.

  • 25. Maude Apatow

    Share

    The 'Euphoria' alum has been rocking some glamorous red carpet looks as of late, and she did not miss at the Met Gala.

  • 24. Quannah Chasinghorse

    Share

    The model and land protector came to represent her Native American heritage in her gorgeous gown and accessories.

  • 23. Gunna

    Share

    We always look forward to what Gunna is going to "wow" us with on the red carpet, and his golden thorn cape is perfect!

  • 22. Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner

    Share

    It's impossible for Sophie Turner to not slay at a gilded age-themed gala, and we love that Joe Jonas was down to match his stunning pregnant wife.

  • 21. Danai Gurira

    Share

    Danai Gurira looks absolutely regal at the event, even with a feather duster in hand.

  • 20. Anitta

    Share

    The Brazilian singer is serving so much class in this regal blue gown adorned with pearls.

  • 19. Maisie Williams

    Share

    Maisie Williams' style evolution has gotten gradually edgier, and though she has no eyebrows, her Met Gala look is very chic.

  • 18. Camila Cabello

    Share

    Breakups look good on Camila Cabello, who is on fire in all white. The imagination of the layering in her dress with flower adornment looks like bouquets!

  • 17. Lori Harvey

    Share

    Lori Harvey is showing off her perfectly sculpted body in this cascading black gown.

  • 16. Kid Cudi

    Share

    Kid Cudi looking like royalty in royal blue! He always knows how to incorporate bold colors in his fashion looks.

  • 15. Patrick Schwarzenegger

    Share

    Patrick Schwarzenegger's soft apricot suit and ascot paired with rust-colored accessories are a fantastically done men's Met Gala look.

  • 14. Kate Moss

    Share

    The legendary model showed how it's done with her jacket-dress.

  • 13. Janelle Monáe

    Share

    The singer came to absolutely slay the Met Gala in this glistening diamond dress by Ralph Lauren.

    Share

    Nicola Peltz is an absolute '70s vixen vision in this billowing pink ensemble!

  • 6. Cardi B

    Cardi B always understands the assignment -- showing her interpretation of gilded age by simply adorning her whole body in gold Versace.

  • 5. Billie Eilish

    Share

    You already know much thought goes into Billie Eilish's looks, and at this year's Met Gala, her Gucci gown was made from all existing materials in an effort to being as eco-friendly as possible.

    Share

    Pink ensembles have taken the night by storm! The actress's floral-adorned gown is outfitted with white opera gloves.
