"[He's] my biggest celebrity crush."

You may also know Pete from his extensive list of famous exes, including Ariana Grande, Kate Beckinsale and Kaia Gerber.

He also dated Cazzie David for several years and was briefly linked to Margaret Qualley. And, if you're curious, he has a theory about why he seems to be a magnet for his celebrity peers:

"I try and go as above and beyond as possible, because that's what you're supposed to do?," he said in 2019. "If you're in a relationship with someone, you're just supposed to make that person feel as special as possible."

Olivia and Pete's worlds recently collided when SNL centered an entire sketch around Olivia and "Drivers License."

Which, of course, included Pete passionately singing along to the song:

Olivia said she had "no idea" the song was going to be a part of the show but she was "absolutely floored."

"I was screaming. I think being made fun of and parodied on SNL is the biggest compliment in the whole world so that was so surreal...Never in my wildest dreams did I think they were going to do a 'Drivers License' sketch where they played the entirety of 'Drivers License,'" Olivia told Radio.com.

And then she revealed just why the moment was so special — she has a major crush on Pete!

"Pete Davidson, who's my biggest celebrity crush, was singing it and compared me to Taylor Swift, who's my idol. It was on my 18th birthday too, so that was a crazy day," Olivia added.

Given Olivia's quick rise to fame, it's just a matter of time until her and Pete's worlds collide IRL on SNL with her as the musical guest or host.
