Jerrod sent it to me last night and it made me super emotional in the best way. In the video I had just gotten back from doing my very first update and sketch. It\u2019s crazy to think that today I\u2019ll be doing my last one,\u201d Davidson began, noting that when he had first joined the cast at 20, he had been a stand-up performer with \u201cno idea\u201d how to perform in a sketch.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI knew I could never keep up or go toe to toe with a Kenan Thompson or a Kate McKinnon so I was super scared at figuring out what I could possibly bring to or do for such a historic, respected show and platform. I figured since I\u2019m a stand up I\u2019ll just try my stand up and personal bits on Weekend Update as myself and I\u2019m so glad I did,\u201d Davidson continued. \u201cI got to share so much with this audience and literally grow up in front of your eyes. We were together through the good and the bad, the happiest and the darkest of times.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Davidson offered his thanks to the show\u2019s creator and producer Lorne Michaels \u2014 along with everyone else on the show.<\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cI owe Lorne Michaels and everyone at SNL my life. Im so grateful and I wouldn\u2019t be here without them,\u201d he said. \u201cI appreciate you guys always having my back and sticking up for me even when that wasn\u2019t the popular opinion. Thank you for always believing in me and sticking by my side even when it seemed comical. Thank you for teaching me life values, how to grow up and for giving me memories that will last a lifetime. SNL is my home. I\u2019m so happy and sad about tonight\u2019s show. For so many reasons I can\u2019t explain. Can\u2019t wait to be back next year in a Mulaney musical number.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The message was signed: \u201cResident young person Pete Davidson.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Throughout his time on the show, Davidson weathered his share of controversy. A 2018 joke <a href=\"https:\/\/dailywire.com\/news\/watch-dan-crenshaw-graciously-accepts-pete-ryan-saavedra\/\">aimed at Congressman Dan Crenshaw<\/a> (R-TX) resulted in a public apology \u2014 and a sketch alongside Crenshaw, who took the whole episode in stride.
