You're already aware that Pete Davidson has gotten a lot of tattoos — so many, in fact, that he's currently in the process of getting all of them covered up.
Obviously, anyone who's gotten as many tattoos as Pete is going to have a few ink-related regrets — and during a recent appearance on Hot Ones, the comedian and actor revealed the most "humiliating" tat he ever sat down to receive. Drumroll, please...
The tattoo in question was on Pete's chest, and it was a compliment that comedian Dave Chappelle once paid him after Pete did a set at the age of "19 or 20."
Allow Pete to explain: “This was before [Dave] was back, so seeing him was like crazy, going ‘What the fuck?’," he recalled. "And I got off stage and he was like, ‘I watched your whole set — it was really good,’ and I was like, ‘Oh, thanks.’"
"I was like, ‘You know, how do you keep coming up with new stuff? I’m working on new stuff and it’s, like, difficult,’ and he goes, ‘Jokes come and go, but swag is forever.’ And guess who got that tattooed on his chest?”
Apparently, Pete found the tattoo so embarrassing that he actually covered it up with a different tattoo at one point. Can you guess what he chose?
Time's up! If you guessed "the shark from Jaws," then congratulations on taking a huge risk and hitting it big, I suppose.
“I covered it with Jaws because I needed something huge to black it out," Pete explained. "I just put a giant shark over it. That’s pretty bad, dude — but he was like my idol. He still is, but that’s so dumb. I could’ve just told people he said that to me."
Hey, we've all been there — right? Maybe not. Watch the whole segment with Pete right here.
