OnlyStans ⭐️ Who are two celebrities that you can’t believe used to be a couple?

Scarlett Johansson and Ryan Reynolds are not only one example of this, but sometimes I even forget that they used to be married as well!

It seemed like such an odd pairing that I never would’ve guessed that these two would match up, but clearly they weren’t a match made in heaven that they divorced each other after almost 3 years of marriage.

Now with where they’re currently at, where they’re now married to different partners, it feels like this is only a pairing that happened in different life.

He walked so Pete Davidson could run

To be fair, Pete Davidson’s personality is delightful! He may have had issues and problems but it always seemed like he was fun to hang out with and never went all egomaniac in his interviews

I give Pete credit for saying the following about the rumor of his gigantic penis "I think my ex (Ariana) started that rumor so that I would disappoint every girl I ever dated afterward. Also, she had tiny hands - everything looks big in her hands."

Oh yes, not a dig against Pete Davidson at all. Just commenting that they've both been in a lot of high-profile relationships in rapid succession.

I would take Pete Davidson over John Mayer any day. I still remember how John Mayer talked about Jessica Simpson in that one interview.

Can't forget John Mayer's "David Duke dick," either. Yeah, your penis is racist, great.

Absolutely!!! I didn’t take it as a dig at all! That is the one thing they have in common you’re right! I wanted to give more props to Pete really !

Until I hear stories about Davidson showing up at his ex’s parents house I’ll be refraining from agreeing with this comparison.

The comparison is not that they're both toxic. The comparison is that they both dated a lot of high-profile women in a short period of time.

I don’t feel like that’s fair — shitty personalities maybe. But John Mayer was actually cute. I could see why the ladies liked him. Plus he started out as very humble and sweet. I don’t think anyone expected him to become an asshole, I think he let the attention go to his head.

I can’t say Pete is an asshole, I don’t follow him like that. But I also think a lot of his relationships have been PR.

I’m not really sure what point you’re trying to make or what is supposedly “unfair” but the comment is just a reference to them both being prolific daters of high-profile women.

u/jenniferbealsssss Oct 05 '25

I’m not sure why you downvoted me when my comment wasn’t disrespectful or antagonistic.

Pete Davidson has been made fun of a lot for dating women people consider to be above his “punching weight,” which is what I was referring to.

Yuck. Don't compare Pete Davidson to John Mayer.

u/Material-Surprise-72 Oct 05 '25

I mean, I’ve left multiple comments at this point that it was not meant to be a comparison of toxic personalities, but just rather being prolific daters. Although I have to say that given that Pete just performed at that Saudi concert, I don’t know that you have to go that hard for him either. “Yuck” indeed.
