Pete Davidson joked about his new relationship with Ariana Grande as part of his standup routine on Friday night at The Borgata, where the SNL star called himself “The New Kevin Federline” after it was confirmed that they were an item.
Pete opened up for Dave Chappelle at The Borgata in Atlantic City, New Jersey, as part of the hotel and casino's ongoing 15th anniversary celebration. The comedian took the opportunity to make a joke about his relationship with Ariana in a really cute way.
He called himself “The New Kevin Federline” during his routine on stage while Ariana was in the audience! Kevin famously dated and married pop icon Britney Spears over ten years ago in 2004. They had two kids (Sean and Jayden) before splitting up in 2007. So are these two heading down the same path as well?
The comedian and singer became Instagram official earlier this week after word got out that they were dating.

The budding relationship occurred shortly after the “Into You” singer and her ex Mac Miller split. Those two dated for nearly two years before calling it quits.
Pete and Ariana have had no problem showing the world how happy they look with one another, as she shared a PDA-filled photo of him holding her on her Instagram Thursday.
