In a surprising transformation, Pete Davidson shocked fans and viewers alike when he appeared in a promotional campaign for Reformation, showcasing his newly cleared skin without any tattoos. Dressed simply in a white undershirt, white underwear, and matching white footwear, Davidson’s fresh look prompted skepticism from many online, with some even questioning if the images had been digitally altered. A user on X, previously known as Twitter, remarked that the image looked “heavily photoshopped.”

However, Davidson quickly dispelled any doubts during his appearance on “Today,” revealing that he had been in the process of tattoo removal since 2020. He mentioned that the motivation behind this significant life change came when he got sober and took a long look in the mirror, leading him to realize he needed a fresh start. This journey involved erasing over 100 tattoos, including some he shared with his ex, Ariana Grande.
Does Davidson still have big tattoo-free energy?
Following the unveiling of Pete Davidson’s tattoo-free look, social media reactions varied widely. Some expressed surprise but support for his new appearance, while others preferred his previous, inked style. For instance, one optimistic user on X commented, “Pete Davidson without tattoos?.. Unexpected, but I’m here for it!” In contrast, another firmly stated, “He should get them all back; he looked way hotter before.” Others found themselves with mixed feelings: one person noted he appeared clean and healthy, yet “weird without tats.” Another chimed in humorously, remarking, “Pete Davidson without tattoos is like T-Pain without his auto-tune.”
While opinions are mixed, there’s curiosity about how Davidson’s close relationship with his mother will influence her view on his new look. According to Reformation’s website, Davidson is being marketed as a charming companion to beautiful women. Given his history of relationships with high-profile women like Madelyn Cline, Kim Kardashian, Kate Beckinsale, Phoebe Dynevor, and Ariana Grande, many are eager to see who he might date next as a tattoo-free version of himself.
