- Pete Davidson publicly praised his ex’s acting on his Netflix talk show, calling Kim Kardashian “so good at acting” and “superhuman” during the May 29 episode.
- Comedian Nikki Glaser, a guest on the show and a co-star on the upcoming film, backed Davidson’s remarks by saying Kardashian is “so smart” and will do anything she sets her mind to.
- News reports say Kardashian is set to star in and produce the Netflix comedy The Fifth Wheel, a project that also involves Glaser and positions her toward larger film roles.
- Kardashian’s acting record includes a well-received 2023 turn on American Horror Story: Delicate and a more criticized 2025 lead on Hulu’s All’s Fair, which drew many viewers’ comments about a stiff performance.
- The exchange underscores an amicable post-breakup tone between Davidson and Kardashian and may ease some public scrutiny given past controversies involving Kanye West and intense media attention, potentially shaping how industry peers and audiences view her acting trajectory.
