Pete Davidson knows his way around a good roast. Back in 2015, for example, the Saturday Night Live star unloaded on Justin Bieber using some hilarious father comparison tactics:
This week, Davidson dropped by Wild 'n Out headquarters for some mic-dropping exchanges with Nick Cannon and Corey Charron. Though both Cannon and Charron really tried it with some SNL-related disses, Davidson ultimately came out on top.
Cannon seemed convinced that his Saturday Night Died pun was actually good. It wasn't. Davidson responded with a nice slice of anti-nostalgia, joking that he was honored to share the stage with the "hottest new star of 2004."
The beat was cut for the short Davidson vs. Charron round. Davidson, a former Wild 'n Out cast member circa 2013, used this opportunity to stress the obvious: He's since moved on to bigger and better things. "That was a very good rhyme," Davidson delivered roastingly. "It was very clever. I left four years ago, but you'll be stuck here forever."
Last month, Davidson continued his saga of highly quotable Staten Island disses during a Weekend Update segment. "I would be just as happy if there were no hurricane and Staten Island just fell into the sea," Davidson, responding to the local backlash his previous Staten Island jokes had garnered, said. "If Staten Island is so desirable, then why is it free to get there? Don't get me wrong, I know Staten Island isn't all heroin and racist cops. It also has meth and racist firefighters." Iconic.
