Pete Davidson is adjusting to fatherhood with his signature humor, telling audiences that becoming a dad has been 'great' while joking about the logistical challenges of comedy and new parent life.
Let's be real β Pete's bit about 'powering through' watching porn with his four-month-old daughter in the house is exactly the kind of boundary-pushing humor that made him famous, and some fans are side-eyeing hard.
Pete, 32, performed at The Fountainebleau in Las Vegas on April 11, 2026, his first stand-up show in 5 months since welcoming daughter Scottie Rose with Elsie Hewitt. The baby was born December 12, 2025 at exactly 3:05pm β the time Elsie predicted.
Pete Davidson has officially proven that becoming a father won't stop him from being Pete Davidson. The man really said 'I powered through' while his infant daughter was in earshot β and honestly? We're not surprised. Classic Pete.
Pete Davidson is back on stage, and he's not holding anything back β even when his four-month-old daughter is in the building.
The Saturday Night Live alum took the stage at The Fountainebleau in Las Vegas on April 11 for his first comedy show in five months, and naturally, fatherhood became fodder for his routine. Live from Sin City, Pete β who shares baby girl Scottie Rose with girlfriend Elsie Hewitt β cracked a NSFW wisecrack that has the internet buzzing. "I had a little girl," he told the audience, per audio obtained by E! News. "It's weird having a little girl. It's hard to watch pornβ¦in front of her. But, uh, I still did." He added with a grin: "I powered through. No, it's great."
The timing of Pete's comedy comeback is notable β he's been off the road since welcoming Scottie Rose in December 2025, and his set proves that fatherhood hasn't softened his infamous crude humor. The 32-year-old comedian has always built his brand on unapologetically raunchy material, and it appears new dad life hasn't changed that one bit. Elsie, 30, has been open about her own journey since giving birth, sharing candid posts about recovering from childbirth and the reality of new motherhood β including admitting she felt "withering away" after her first date night just four weeks postpartum.
This isn't the first time Pete and Elsie have given fans an unfiltered look at their relationship. The model went Instagram official with the comedian in March 2025 after attending Dave Navarro's wedding in Scotland, and she's been refreshingly honest about everything from her endometriosis battle to the messy realities of early motherhood. But Pete's Las Vegas set takes the cake for most dramatically inappropriate dad joke of the year β and we mean that as a compliment.
The couple welcomed Scottie Rose on December 12, 2025, at exactly 3:05pm β the exact time Elsie predicted she'd arrive while writing down their guesses on the way to the hospital. The model shared the sweet detail when their daughter turned 12 weeks old in March, writing on Instagram: "how crazy and cool is that." Now at four months old, Scottie Rose is already being roped into her dad's comedy sets β whether she likes it or not.
