Pete Davidson Reveals Why He Finds Acting "So Embarrassing" in Candid Interview

In a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight, comedian and actor Pete Davidson offered a candid perspective on his craft, revealing that he finds acting to be "so embarrassing." Davidson, known for his stand-up comedy background, explained that his approach to performing on screen differs significantly from traditional methods. When asked about his preference against extensive rehearsals, Davidson elaborated, "Acting is just so embarrassing. Like, I know that sounds..." He then added, "It's because I'm a stand-up, so, you know, it's very ridiculous. So, like, in order for me to get there and be like, 'Oohh!' I can only do that two or three times before I start laughing, you know what I mean?" Another individual present during the interview briefly interjected, humorously noting, "Right, I'm like Pete, we're not doing a comedy." Davidson then affirmed, "There is a very funny cut of 'The Home.'" His comments provide a unique glimpse into the mindset of a performer who navigates both the spontaneous world of stand-up and the structured environment of film and television.
