Kim Kardashian & Pete Davidson felt ‘sparks’ while rehearsing kissing scene for SNL skit before holding hands on date
KIM Kardashian and Pete Davidson are said to have felt “sparks” while rehearsing their much-talked about kissing scene for their Saturday Night Live sketch.
Just recently, the duo were spotted holding hands while having quite the date night at Knott’s Scary Farm.
Kim and Pete found themselves practicing a lot for their sketch together before the live show, which “really brought their connection together faster,” a source told HollywoodLife.
The insider shared: “They were having a good time — you could see that there were sparks… You can tell they became quick friends while she was on the show.”
In the now memorable SNL sketch of Aladdin, Kim played the role of Princess Jasmine as she rode a magic carpet with the comic.
The two had a conversation, where Kim’s character asked: “Do you feel self-conscious because I’m the daughter of a Sultan and you are just a lowly street rat?”
Pete’s character would respond: “… Jasmine, as we start getting more intimate, I’m just a little concerned that physically, I can’t handle you…
“… I want to do everything with you, see the world, laugh together, sing songs and do sex…”

The two would eventually lean in and kiss towards the end of the sketch.
That would not be the last time Kim, 40, and Pete, 27, would cross paths as they also met up at a theme park over the weekend.
THEME PARK DATE
A TikTok video from a fan caught Pete, Kim, Kourtney, 42, and Travis Barker, 45, all together walking around.
Pete and Kim were then spotted holding hands during a rollercoaster ride, according to People.
However, a source would later tell Us Weekly: “Kim and Pete seemed like good friends,” adding that they were spotted around 1:20 a.m.”
They continued: “Kim seemed very chill. It did seem like she was trying to hide.”
PETE BY HER SIDE
Their closeness should not come as a surprise, as Pete is said to have been by Kim’s side during her debut on SNL.
An insider told Radar: “Pete was more supportive than anyone in the cast when Kim hosted.
“He went out of his way to make sure she was comfortable and even took time to privately coach Kim to make sure all her jokes landed.
“It’s the only place in the world where staff is not discouraged to date.”
The Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum filed for divorce from rapper, Kanye West, 44, back in February.
The former couple – who were married for nearly seven years – share four kids: North, eight, Saint, five, Chicago, three, and Psalm, two.
Meanwhile, Pete became a known name when he was engaged to Ariana Grande back in May 2018, only for the pair to end things a few months later.
