The 31-year-old actor and comedian has been undergoing the process to remove all of his tattoos since 2020, but there’s one that he wanted to hide long before he started going under the laser.
Pete made his second appearance on First We Feast’s Hot Ones series and shared the tattoo that was so “humiliating” he covered it up.

Pete shared on the episode that when he was “19 or 20,” he did a comedy set with Dave Chappelle in the audience. He explained that Dave complimenting him after his stand-up routine was finished that inspired him to get a tattoo across his chest.
“This was before [Dave] was back, so seeing him was like crazy, going ‘What the f—?’ And I got off stage and he was like, ‘I watched your whole set — it was really good,’ and I was like, ‘Oh, thanks.’ I was like, ‘You know, how do you keep coming up with new stuff? I’m working on new stuff and it’s like difficult,’ and he goes, ‘Jokes come and go, but swag is forever.’ … And guess who got that tattooed on his chest?” Pete recalled, saying that he had never told anyone about this tattoo before the episode.
Pete went on to share that he got the tattoo covered up sometime after he got it, saying, “I covered it with Jaws because I needed something huge to black it out. I just put a giant shark over it. That’s pretty bad, dude – but he was like my idol. He still is, but that’s so dumb. I could’ve just told people he said that to me.”
