Pete Davidson, who once dated 18-year-old, mocked for Matt Gaetz portrayal on SNL

NBC’s “Saturday Night Live” chose Pete Davidson to portray embattled Rep. Matt Gaetz — despite the cast member dating an 18-year-old last year.

Davidson, 27, appeared as Gaetz (R-Fl.) in the show’s cold open, in which the 38-year-old lawmaker was featured as a guest on a Britney Spears-hosted talk show for “the social pariahs of the week.”

During the appearance, Davidson, as Gaetz, quoted Glenn Quagmire, the hyper-sexualized character from “Family Guy,” saying “giggity giggity goo” repeatedly.

Davidson dated Kaia Gerber, the 19-year-old supermodel and daughter of Cindy Crawford, until February 2020. She was 18 at the time.

Many on Twitter took note of the relationship after Davidson portrayed the Republican lawmaker, who is being investigated for allegedly sleeping with a 17-year-old girl.

“Pete Davidson as Matt Gaetz is a little too on the nose,” wrote one Twitter user.

“Pete Davidson as Gaetz was obviously as unsettling for him as it was for his fans,” another wrote.

If I’m not mistaken, didn’t Jerry Seinfeld once seriously date a 17-year old girl when he was in his late 30s...??

Hollywood has always been a bastion against child exploitation.

There is nothing wrong with a man dating an 18 year old.
Certainly not if the man is only ten years older.
An 18 y/o female is a Woman. My mother got married at that age. This is just another case of people looking for something to feign ‘outrage’ over.

Some women know what kind of man they want early in their adolescence. They have figured out many of the unwritten rules of dating. These women are not victims of anyone’s deception. They know what they’re getting, or think they do, and they want that life experience. They are not acting out of fear.

Meanwhile the sordid tales of Hunter Biden go unremarked on.
I don’t read Hunter Biden articles anymore when he’s the primary topic. I don’t want to feed all that doubled-down vulgarity into my head.

How long have we had not only the age of consent higher than the 15 or 16 of my youth IIRC (maybe even down to 14 in some states in the South), to not only 18, but also with 18 so extremely frowned upon and the requirements that there be no more than a couple or few years of age difference between the parties involved up through 17?

Yeah, it’s usually pretty creepy and the younger females or males usually have psychological issues in some cases, but I think these standards have just evolved over the past, what, 10 to 15 years?

Same, I try not to as well. Just don’t want that kind of Garbage in my life.. ps 101 v2b-3 David wrote: I will walk within my house with a blameless heart, I will set no vile thing before my eyes.

Garbage In Garbage out as the saying goes. The temptation to read “dirt” on others is great, but it takes fortitude to determine not to do so

Allegedly met her in Central Park. Maybe she was attracted to his Porsche.

National Lampoon Radio Hour (with the same cast) was even funnier than original SNL (who scooped up many of the cast memebers).

At age 27, Davidson is really sick to be dating an 18 year old.
