Pete Davidson Hopes Ariana Grande Wins an Oscar for Her Role in “Evil”: “I Wish Her All the Best”

Pete Davidson’s Support for Ariana Grande

Pete Davidson expressed his belief that the former partner Ariana Grande has a strong chance of winning an Oscar for her performance in Wicked.

Reflecting on Their Past

During Saturday Night Live’s 50: Return Home concert on Friday (February 14), King Statien -Alend actor mentioned to The page is sixth that he and Grande, who dated for four months before splitting in October 2018, do not often cross paths.

“When we do see each other, it’s all friendly,” he shared. “Since we don’t run in the same circles much anymore, our encounters are rare and filled with love. I’ve had adult relationships with some amazing women, and when they ended, it was on good terms.”

Davidson further expressed his wish that Grande, nominated for Best Supporting Actress as Glinda in Wicked, wins at the upcoming ceremony in March. “I hope she takes home an Oscar,” he said. “I truly wish she gets that gold.”

Competition for the Oscars

Grande competes in the Best Actress category against Felicity Jones (Brutalist), Monica Barbaro (Full Unknown), Isabella Rossellini (Conclave), and Zoe Saldana for the controversial Emilia Perez.

Her co-star Cynthia Erivo is also nominated for Best Actress for her role as Elphaba, contending with Carla Sofia Gask (Emilia Perez), Mikey Madison (Anora), Demi Moore (Substance), and Fernanda Torres (I’m Still Here).

Recently, Grande addressed rumors of a potential duet with her during the 2025 ceremony, clarifying that the idea was purely speculative.

In a four-star review of Wicked, NME praised the film, stating: “Though the narrative flags a bit, it does not detract from the powerful climax where Elphaba and Glinda journey to Oz to meet the legendary wizard (Jeff Goldblum). Both Erivo and Grande deliver striking performances filled with captivating chemistry, leading to a captivating viewing experience that resonates long after the credits roll.”
