Pete Davidson’s ‘Airbrushed’ Underwear Ad Sparks Controversy as Fashion Brand Tones Down His Infamous Package in Steamy Photoshoot

Pete Davidson’s latest gig as an underwear model has stirred up controversy, as sources claim his package was airbrushed to appear smaller in a recent Reformation campaign. The comedian, known for his high-profile relationships and unfiltered humor, made headlines again after his revealing photoshoot allegedly needed digital tweaking before release.

Davidson, 31, landed a lucrative modeling deal with fashion brand Reformation, posing in a series of sultry shots to promote the company’s new underwear line. However, behind the scenes, insiders claim that his noticeably large bulge became a major talking point, leading the brand to alter the final images to maintain a ‘tasteful’ aesthetic.

Airbrushing controversy takes center stage

An insider revealed that Davidson’s natural physique was simply too distracting for the campaign’s intended audience. The source stated that his package dominated the photos, making it impossible to focus on the underwear itself. To avoid potential decency issues, Reformation allegedly opted to digitally minimize the comedian’s bulge before the campaign’s official release.

“Pete’s package was just too large to be left unedited. The brand wanted to ensure the images remained focused on the product rather than sparking unnecessary controversy,” the insider explained. The company reportedly feared the unedited images might be deemed too risqué, leading to potential backlash.

Ariana Grande’s past comments resurface

The alleged airbrushing incident has reignited past discussions about Davidson’s size, which was a topic of public fascination after his ex, pop star Ariana Grande, made a viral comment about it. The comedian later joked that her statement was more of a curse than a compliment, as it set unrealistic expectations for future partners.

“I don’t like that she exaggerated about my size because now every woman I date is disappointed,” Davidson once shared during a stand-up performance.

Davidson’s personal struggles and recent rehab stint

Beyond his modeling career, Davidson has faced personal challenges in recent years. He has been open about his struggles with mental health and substance abuse, entering rehab multiple times. Just last year, he admitted to using ketamine for four years and sought treatment for borderline personality disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder. His most recent stint in rehab followed his split from Maria Georgas.

Despite his struggles, Davidson continues to land major deals and remains a fixture in Hollywood’s pop culture scene. His latest campaign may have been digitally altered, but it has undoubtedly captured the public’s attention once again.
