Pulling Power — Pete Davidson Shows The Path To True Engagement

Pete Davidson isn’t ugly. The SNL comedian and actor has the kind of boyish looks that would’ve got him I.D’d well into his twenties and a canvas of random, mismatched tattoos that suggest a drumming career cut short mid-rudiment. He’s kookily androgynous, in a small town, bar-keep-hero kind of way.

And yet Davidson has a pulling track record that would put Hollywood’s finest swordsmiths of the Golden Age to shame.

Ariana Grande, Kate Beckinsale, Margaret Qualley, Kaia Gerber, Phoebe Dynevor, Kim Kardashian to name but a few. He recently added underwear model Emily Ratajkowski to his roster, surely completing the hetero male dating version of Top Trumps.

It’s a bedpost notch list that in days gone by would’ve seemed unfeasible for a guy like him — a teenager’s pipe dream. But no — Davidson used his languid Staten Island drawl and disaffected teen demeanour to close them all. Despite carrying the air of a student stoner at the wrong end of an overdrawn electricity bill (who’s had to choose between operating the washing machine or the microwave), he’s become infamous as a louche lothario shopping in the Champs Elysee with a TK Maxx gift card.

He’s got such massive game his image is likely taped to a million dartboards in incel bedrooms around the world.
