• Pete Davidson won a Special Achievement Award at the 30th Annual Webby Awards in New York City
• His five-word acceptance speech — “Thanks, I’m still dead inside” — immediately went viral
• The quip landed amid reports that Davidson and girlfriend Elsie Hewitt are having relationship trouble
• Machine Gun Kelly introduced Davidson at the ceremony, praising his “fearless” approach to comedy
• The appearance followed controversy over Davidson’s jokes at the Netflix Roast of Kevin Hart

Pete Davidson showed up to the 30th Annual Webby Awards on Monday night, collected a Special Achievement Award — and delivered what might be the most Pete Davidson acceptance speech in history. Five words: “Thanks, I’m still dead inside.”

The ceremony, held at Cipriani Wall Street in New York City, is famous for its strict five-word speech rule, and most winners played it warm and aspirational. Shonda Rhimes, who took home Streaming Person of the Year, went with “I am just getting started.” Don Lemon, who won both the Webby Award and People’s Voice Award for Best Video Podcast Host, kept it civic: “A free press is essential.” Comedian Atsuko Okatsuka, winning in the best comedy category, managed to pack an entire immigration story into five words: “Formerly undocumented immigrant. Current winner.”

And then there was Davidson.

The line got attention on its own terms — dark, deadpan, very on-brand — but the timing is what made people pay closer attention. Reports have been circulating that Davidson and Elsie Hewitt, the mother of his five-month-old daughter Scottie Rose, are navigating some serious friction behind closed doors. The couple welcomed Scottie in December, and Davidson had been publicly glowing about new fatherhood, telling People that fatherhood was “f-cking awesome” and calling Hewitt “a fantastic mom.”

What’s Really Going On With Pete and Elsie

But sources close to the couple have been telling a more complicated story. “There are issues, but they’re trying to figure things out together,” one insider told People. A separate source told the Daily Mail that none of Davidson’s friends are particularly surprised. “Not one of Pete’s friends is surprised that there are relationship issues with him and Elsie,” the source claimed. “This is what he ends up doing always. She was also warned well ahead of time in their relationship to be careful with him, because Pete loves to self-sabotage a good thing.”

According to insiders, the pregnancy was unplanned — and that reportedly changed the energy between them almost immediately. “Their dynamic immediately changed when she became pregnant, and they are trying to figure out the next steps as they want to be together for their kid, but it just might not be their endgame,” the source alleged. The same insider claimed Davidson isn’t ready to walk away: “He doesn’t want the relationship to end because he wants his daughter to have the luxury of having a complete family, something he wasn’t afforded himself.” Davidson lost his father, firefighter Scott Davidson, in the September 11 attacks when Pete was just seven years old.

Hewitt, for her part, shared a quiet but emotional Mother’s Day post the day before the ceremony. “We’re all here because of a mother’s sacrifice to make herself your first home. i got to be Scottie’s,” she wrote. “Greatest honor of my life. happy mother’s day.”

MGK’s Introduction and the Kevin Hart Roast Fallout

Davidson wasn’t alone on that Webby stage — longtime friend Machine Gun Kelly was there to introduce him, and MGK had nothing but praise. “He was sharing a lot of his jokes that he was going to do for the Kevin Hart roast last week, and what stuck out to me was that he would tell me some of the jokes, and he never asked me, ‘Oh, is this too much?’ or ‘Is it gonna offend anybody?'” MGK said. “He just told me the jokes, and it made me realize that, you know, he’s fearless, like great comedy is supposed to be raw, authentic, and he puts his own self on the line to make us all laugh and think.”

That Kevin Hart roast has been generating its own noise. At the Netflix event, Davidson went after MAGA-aligned comedian Tony Hinchcliffe — the podcaster who made racist jokes about Puerto Rico at a Trump rally in 2024 — with a vengeance. “Tony Hinchcliffe’s here looking like both a child molester and the doll they give the child to show where he touched them,” Davidson said, before adding, “Tony reminds me of Charlie Kirk” in a line that drew both gasps and applause. He also landed a shot at Kanye West: “I was in a beef with Kanye, so I’ve taken shots from better gay Nazis.” Chelsea Handler and Sheryl Underwood also took swings at Hinchcliffe during the event.

Backstage at the Webbys, Davidson did show a slightly lighter side. When asked what advice he’d give his younger self, he kept it simple: “Don’t be too hard on yourself.”

It’s a sentiment that lands a little differently knowing everything he’s carrying right now.

• Jennifer Lopez attended the Netflix Is a Joke Festival’s Roast of Kevin Hart on May 10 in Inglewood, California
• She wore a figure-hugging crimson Michael Costello dress with a plunging neckline and thigh-high slit
• Lopez leaned into Y2K nostalgia with aviator sunglasses, chunky gold bangles, and a red mini Chanel bag
• The roast also drew John Stamos, Seth Green, Machine Gun Kelly, Tracee Ellis Ross, and Jay Shetty
• The look came just days after Lopez shared a sweet Mother’s Day moment on Instagram

Jennifer Lopez walked into the Netflix Roast of Kevin Hart on May 10 looking like she’d raided the best version of her own archive — and nobody was complaining. Arriving at the star-studded live event in Inglewood, California, the pop icon served a fiery all-red moment in a body-hugging Michael Costello gown that had all the signatures of a classic J.Lo red carpet knockout.

The crimson halter dress featured a dramatically plunging scoop neckline, gathered ruching along the skirt, and a daring thigh-high center slit. A twisted knot detail at the waist created a sculpted silhouette with just enough texture and movement to keep the monochromatic look from feeling flat. As Lopez worked different angles on the carpet, a subtle high-low hemline came into view — because of course there was one more detail to discover.

The Y2K Accessories That Made the Look

The dress was doing plenty on its own, but Lopez’s accessories took the whole moment somewhere nostalgic and completely intentional. She stepped onto the carpet in reddish bronze-tinted aviator sunglasses with delicate gold rims — the kind of eyewear that had a serious moment in the early 2000s and, in her hands, feels completely current again. On her wrists, she stacked a reflective chunky gold bangle with a chain-link bracelet, both carrying that unmistakable Noughties energy.

For her bag, Lopez carried a mini red quilted leather purse with a circular handle wrapped in gold chain — a luxe finishing touch that some outlets identified as Chanel. Nude pointed-toe stiletto sandals were the one break from the scarlet theme, grounding the look without competing with it.

Her hair was a departure from her usual bombshell curls. Instead, Lopez wore her caramel-streaked brown hair in a sleek blowout with a center part and defined face-framing layers. The beauty look leaned into bronze — rose gold smoky shadow, sculpted cheekbones, a blush glossy lip with brown liner — with rectangular molten gold earrings just visible beneath the waves. The result was sultry, polished, and unmistakably her.

A Star-Studded Night for Kevin Hart

Lopez was among a notably eclectic group of celebrities who showed up to roast Kevin Hart as part of the Netflix Is a Joke Festival. John Stamos, Seth Green, Machine Gun Kelly, Tracee Ellis Ross, and Jay Shetty were all in the building for what was one of the weekend’s marquee live events.

For Lopez, the night was a reminder of why she’s remained one of the most reliably watchable people on any red carpet for nearly three decades. Whether it’s a Versace jungle print or a Michael Costello bodycon, she doesn’t just wear clothes — she makes them feel like a moment worth paying attention to.

The Kevin Hart roast appearance came just days after Lopez gave fans a peek at a much lower-key side of her life. In an Instagram video posted around Mother’s Day, the mom of 18-year-old twins Emme and Max — whom she shares with ex-husband Marc Anthony — held up a homemade chocolate cake decorated with pastel frosting and a section labeled “mom’s slice.” Looking directly into the camera with a wink, she asked her followers, “Should I eat mom’s slice?” before adding, “I feel like I should” — and pretending to take a massive bite.

From chocolate cake at home to a red Michael Costello dress on the Netflix carpet. That’s the full J.Lo experience, and she makes both look effortless.
