TheSaturday Night Livestar, 24, also addressedall the tattooshe’d gotten in Grande’s honor.
“What else is going on? Um, I’ve been covering a bunch of tattoos, that’s fun. I’m f— zero for two in the tattoo [department],” he remarked, likely referencing the fact that before his relationship with Grande, he gotex-girlfriend Cazzie David’s face inked on his arm. That tattoo has since been covered.
In Grande’s first appearance following their split, the 25-year-old singer was seencovering up a finger tattoo of Davidson’s first namewith a Band-Aid.
“Yeah, I’m afraid to get my mom tattooed on me, that’s how bad it is,” he joked during his routine.

After Apatow joined Davidson onstage, theSNLstar revealed that even his friends had come to agree with all the critics who spoke out against the couple’s decision to get matching tattoos.
“So, obviously you know I, we [Ariana] broke up or whatever, but when me and her first got engaged we got tattoos,” he remarked. “And it was like in a magazine like, wasPete Davidsonstupid? And 93 percent of it said yes. So my boy, he was like, ‘Don’t listen to that s— man. They’re literally f— haters.’ And I’m like, ‘Yeah f— that. I’m not stupid.’ And the other day we were in my kitchen and he was like, ‘Yo bro. Turns out you were stupid.’ ”
Later on in the show, Davidson opened up aboutKanye West’ssurprise off-air pro-Trump rantat the season premiere ofSNL.
“He held us hostage,” he shared, adding that the moment also put him “in a weird position” because he’s friends with Kid Cudi, who was also onstage at the time, having just performed with West.
“So we’re all just like sitting there. Then he starts pointing us all out,” Davidson continued, adding that was the moment he decided to leave the stage. “But nobody wanted to be up there. It was really — it was a bit much.”

Davidson went on to dispute a claim West made during the rant about how people atSNLhad told him he couldn’t wear hisMake America Great Again cap, even though the rapper not only wore it onstage that night but also during promos for the episode.
“All we said — all week he was wearing this hat, right? And you know Adam Driver’s like a f— Marine. He’s like a respectable, classy dude. And you’re doing a classy show. And just like, you know, when you do promos with a Marine and all these people it might be [in] the best interest if you wear a different hat or don’t wear a hat,” he explained. “We’re not going to tell you what to do but whatever. And that just made him want to wear it all week.”

Davidson wasspotted for the first timein public on Oct. 17, three days after PEOPLE confirmed that the pairended their engagementnearly five months after he proposed in June. The proposal came just weeks after they began dating and followed Grande’sbreakup from Mac Miller in May.
A Davidson source recentlytold PEOPLEthat despite their split, there was still a chance the pair might end up reconciling.
“They’ve gotten into arguments and broken up before and got back together,” the Davidson source said, adding, “It’s definitely a fresh breakup, but they totally could get back together because who knows with those two.”
