Davidson, who is 31, has been in the news before for his romances, and he talked about it in an interview with Page Six in February 2025. “It’s embarrassing because you want people to write about your work,” he remarked. “I was one of the youngest people ever to be on ‘SNL,’ but all of that was put on hold because of who I was dating.” He went on to say, “I’ve had some pretty adult relationships with some pretty great women, and it’s been fine when they’ve ended.
Hewitt Got Her Big Break as a Model in the Guess Swim & Lingerie Spring 2018 campaign
Hewitt’s major break as a model came when she was in the Guess Swim & Lingerie Spring 2018 campaign. In a Facebook post from May 2018, she talked about how she felt about the big career milestone.
Her Facebook Post
She celebrated her career milestone in a Facebook post, writing, “When I started modeling, I couldn’t get an agent. I met with every single agency in LA, and time and time again, they told me my ‘look just isn’t right,’ I’m ‘too commercial,’ ‘too curvy,’ ‘not a good fit,’ etc.”
“[T]he point is I didn’t take no for an answer, I set many goals for myself in modeling, and Guess was a big one. It’s special to me to work with a company that embodies empowerment and confidence in the same way,” she added.
She Got the Performance Bug at a Young Age
In terms of her acting ambitions, she got the performance bug at a very young age but pursued modeling first. She shared her thoughts in a 2025 interview. “I started modeling, and then I was like, no, I wanted to do [acting]. And so I started doing it when I was, like, 17.” She rapidly showed that she could do a lot of different things. Her IMDB biography says she has been in HBO’s Industry, FX’s weird comedy Dave, and the teen streaming drama Turnt.

In her 2017 Playboy feature, she expressed her love for Italian cuisine. “Italian food is probably my favorite, especially pasta,” she said. “ I also love a really good steak. I like filet mignon with béarnaise sauce. And I have a huge sweet tooth. I love desserts. I love food.”
