Pete Davidson is making headlines again, but this time it has nothing to do with his dating life. The comedian recently found himself talking about his ex-girlfriend, Kim Kardashian, during a conversation with one of her current costars.
As Kardashian continues expanding her Hollywood résumé, Davidson shared an unexpectedly enthusiastic take on her latest career path.
Pete Davidson Applauds Kim Kardashian’s Acting Journey
Kim Kardashian has steadily made her way into the acting world over the last few years. After becoming a household name through Keeping Up With the Kardashians, she began taking on scripted roles, including a prominent part in ‘American Horror Story: Delicate‘ and a role in Ryan Murphy’s 2025 legal drama ‘All’s Fair‘.’
While audiences and critics have often debated Kardashian’s acting abilities, Davidson made it clear that he believes she has genuine talent. The comedian spoke about his former girlfriend during the latest episode of Netflix’s ‘The Pete Davidson Show‘ while interviewing Nikki Glaser, who stars alongside Kardashian in the upcoming comedy film ‘The Fifth Wheel‘.
Reflecting on Kardashian’s acting ambitions, Davidson said, “Isn’t it crazy Kim’s good at acting?” Davidson asked rhetorically. “I remember when we were dating, one day she was just like, ‘I think I’m gonna be an actress.’ And I was just like, ‘F–k yeah!’ And then [she’s] just good at it and I’m like, ‘Get the f–k out of here.’ She’s so good at acting.”
Nikki Glaser Shares Why Kardashian Keeps Proving Critics Wrong
Davidson and Kardashian dated for nine months after her 2021 split from Kanye West, now known as Ye. Although their romance ended, Davidson’s latest remarks showed that he continues to support her professional achievements.

Glaser quickly agreed with Davidson’s assessment and praised Kardashian’s determination. According to the comedian, Kardashian thrives whenever people doubt her abilities and uses criticism as motivation to succeed.
“Anything she wants to do, she will do it, especially if people are like, ‘You can’t do this,'” Glaser told Davidson. “And for her to go into acting with all the public perception of her anyway, she knew… everyone’s gonna look for her to fail.”
Kardashian will soon appear in ‘The Fifth Wheel‘, an ensemble comedy directed by Eva Longoria. The film stars Glaser, Fortune Feimster, and Brenda Song as a group of longtime friends heading on a road trip to Las Vegas. Their plans take an unexpected turn when an attractive outsider joins the adventure.
