And how did their drama wind up on a $15,000 Times Square billboard?
“It’s tragic,” Nachminovitch said, “that Pete didn’t seek out a borough-born mutt from a city animal shelter, because a scrappy New Yorker with charm, personality, and unconventional handsomeness could have been his perfect match.” Nachminovitch added, “Since shelters in New York and across the country are overflowing with homeless animals, PETA urges Pete to show some big heart energy by adopting, not shopping, in the future.
Not one to take a public finger-wag lying down, Davidson turned to the most sinister of communication methods to express his ire: the voice-mail message. Picture him, stormily Googling PETA’s direct number and smashingonly to be hit with an automated voice-mail recording that enrages him further. He then lets rip the following:
Hi, my name is Pete Davidson. This message is for Daphna. Thank you so much for making comments publicly that I didn’t adopt a dog. I just want to let you know I’m severely allergic to dogs, so I have to get a specific breed. I’m only not allergic to Cavapoos. And my mom’s fucking dog, who’s 2 years old, died a week prior, and we’re all so sad, so I had to get a specific dog.
I was trying to cheer up my family. I was already upset that the store had filmed me without my permission or acknowledgment. Then this organization made a public example of us, making our grieving situation worse. I am upset. It was a poor choice of words. I shouldn’t have said what I said, but I am not sorry for standing up for myself and my family.
A natural place to bury this beef — to me, at least. Not so much to the Center for Organizational Research and Education, an agency that sounds exactly as shady as its name suggests. COREabout the matter that it bought a $15,000 billboard in Times Square just to come to Davidson’s defense and to make more jokes about his so-called “energy.” “PETA CAN’T HANDLE PETE’S BDE,” the billboard says next to a photo of Davidson.
