Kim Kardashian admitted that she felt a “zing” when she kissed now-boyfriend Pete Davidson for the first time on “Saturday Night Live” in October.
“When we kissed, I was just like ‘Mmm!’ It was a stage kiss, but it was still a little zing,” Kardashian said on Tuesday’s episode of Dear Media’s “Not Skinny But Not Fat” podcast with Amanda Hirsch.
“It wasn’t anything like a super crazy feeling I was just like, ‘Hmm,’ and then I was like, ‘Wow, I really haven’t kissed anyone else in 10 years, so maybe I’m just like being stupid and it’s nothing, it’s just a stage kiss.’”
Kardashian, 41, appeared in a skit with Davidson28, in which he played Aladdin and she played Jasmine. The duo shared their first kiss on the show.
The Skims founder explained that a few days later, she mightn’t let go of his “BDE [big d–k energy] action” and she decided to “get myself out there.” She teased that fans will have to watch “The Kardashians” on Hulu to see who initiated their first date.
Kardashian recently revealed that she first met Davidson at the 2021 Met Gala in September and asked him for advice for her upcoming hosting gig.
“He was the one cast member that — we were filming our show — he was the one cast member that wouldn’t sign off to be filmed, and he wasn’t there until the day of, so I didn’t see him all week during rehearsals, nothing.”
Davidson was also the only cast member to not attend the followingparty, because “he doesn’t really party,” according to Kardashian.
“I thought regarding it later, and I was like, ‘Damn, he’s the only person that didn’t come,’” she continued. “I thought regarding it following the fact.”
Sometime between her hosting gig on Oct. 9 and their date holding hands on a roller coaster at Knott’s Scary Farm on Oct. 29, the two had their first date privately at the Beverly Hills Hotel.
“We privately hung out first,” she said. “We just chilled, hung out.”
When asked if she and Davidson will ever get to Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker’s level of PDAshe joked that she and Davidson “do it at home” rather than in public.
The two made their first public appearance as a couple at the premiere for “The Kardashians” on Thursday night. They didn’t walk the red carpet together, but they were photographed holding hands walking in the event together.
While the “King of Staten Island” star may have attended the premiere, he won’t be watching himself on TV this season. Kardashian previously told Variety that Davison won’t appear on camera, but she will talk regarding the relationship.
“I have not filmed with him, and I’m not opposed to it,” Kardashian said. “It’s just not what he does. But if there was an event happening and he was there, he wouldn’t tell the cameras to get away.”
The reality TV star, who became legally single in March 2022, filed for divorce from Kanye West in February 2021. The exes share four children: North, 8, Saint, 6, Chicago, 4, and Psalm, 2.
“The Kardashians” premieres April 14 on Hulu.
