Pete Davidson Plans Decade-Long Tattoo Removal Journey

Pete Davidson is undergoing the lengthy and painful process of removing his tattoos, a decision he attributes to wanting to distance himself from a period of his life marked by drug addiction and unhappiness. He explained in several interviews that his tattoos serve as reminders of a 'sad person' who was unsure of himself, and he wants a fresh start without those daily reminders. Davidson has already spent significant time and money on tattoo removal, noting the process can take up to 10 years and is physically grueling. He also shared how the intense scrutiny of his personal life, especially on social media, contributed to his struggles with mental health and substance abuse. Ultimately, Davidson hopes removing his tattoos will help him move forward and not be defined by his past struggles.
