The actor-comedian details his experience at the event: "Definitely one of the top three experiences I've ever had ... I think it's going to lead to a lot of positive things."

Pete Davidson is also doing damage control.

      He nailed it. I can’t take any of the celebrities appearing in this seriously again, and won’t be watching them. It’s tainted my enjoyment of anything they’ve done, and will do the same for future work.
