US celebrity cook Martha Stewart says she would date Pete Davidson.

Appearing on The Drew Barrymore Show in the US, Stewart took part in a game called "Red flag, yellow flag, green flag" in which she had to decide on different dates.

Barrymore began the game by questioning if the 81-year-old would date someone with "as many tattoos as Pete Davidson".

Without prompting, Stewart held up the green flag - and kept it up when Barrymore suggested the actual date could be with Davidson himself.

"There's a thing on the internet where everybody wants you to go on a date with him," Barrymore told her.

Despite acknowledging he'd "dated so many women", Stewart admitted "everybody loves him".

"No, I'm not saying that's bad. I think that's good and he's sort of cute," she said.

"Oh, he is a good guy

"He's a very good guy and he knows how to get in and get out.

"I know him. He was on the [Justin] Bieber roast with me, do you remember? He was this little twerp. He was even twerpier than Bieber."

Kim Kardashian and Davidson announced in August they had split after just nine months together.

According to E! News, they broke up due to their demanding schedules making "it really difficult to maintain a relationship".

Kardashian, who was formerly married to controversial rapper Kanye 'Ye' West, met Davidson on the set of Saturday Night Live in October 2021 when she made a guest appearance on the show.
