Haley Kalil is speaking out to call out Pete Davidson‘s recent comments about female influencers.

During his Variety sit-down, he made it known that he finds the career path “insane” and “lame.”

“It’s bad, and it makes me sad, you know. And girls are just talking to themselves on there, and they’re like, ‘Okay, come get ready with me.’ And I’m like, ‘Who the **** are you? What do you do? Nothing. What the **** is this?,’” he shared.”They make 40 million a year. What? And then I’m like, ‘The world’s broken.’”

He continued, “There’s girls my age that go on TikTok, and they’ll, like, mutter like a thing and then do this, like, dance. And I’m like, ‘What the *** are you doing?’ This is insane. Does no one else see how ******* insane and lame this is? And these girls are like super famous. Like, everyone’s like, ‘Oh my god, I can’t believe.’”

Well, hi, Pete. I’m Haley, and it seems like we have some learning to do.

I’m a content creator, which means that I talk to a camera for a living, which is practically the exact same thing that you do, except I don’t work with a major production company. So, I write the content, edit the content, light the content, do the audio for the content, and script the content. My easiest days are the days that I get to work with a production studio because all of that is done for me. I just get to show up and memorize a script that was already written for me.

But you’re right. I do nothing. So, let’s continue.

I see you went to one semester of college before dropping out and pursuing comedy. That’s cool. I also went to college before pursuing comedy, but I graduated with a biomedical sciences degree, a psychology degree, and a minor in chemistry. Oh, and I got a 4.0, which is considered summa cum laude. I know you didn’t graduate, so you might have to look that one up.

Now, I know college is expensive, and not everyone can afford to go, which is why I won Miss Minnesota USA and Miss Minnesota Teen USA to help pay for that college.

Now, I do have a lot of respect for the fact that your parents weren’t wealthy and weren’t connected to entertainment. Mine neither.

I know you built your career by doing small stand-up shows all throughout New York until you were finally recognized by bigger comedians. I can’t lie, I really respect that. Which is why I do the exact same thing. But instead of doing small comedy shows to be recognized by larger comedians, I’m doing small videos to be recognized, hopefully, by those large production offices like SNL.

So, we’re basically playing the exact same game, since the newest cast members to be added to SNL were TikTokers, and they were women. So, this is awkward.

For my calculations, it looks like we both grew up doing the exact same thing: writing and producing our own material so that, hopefully, we could be seen by a bigger audience or recognized by somebody like SNL. Except I was able to do that while getting my degree. But, you know, that’s neither here nor there.

I don’t think you have a problem with content creation, since you literally do it. I think you have a problem with women in content creation, since you didn’t call out streamers, you didn’t call out male athletes, you avoided everything male-dominated, but you came for female content creators. I’ve had the honor of meeting many successful women in content creation, and they are absolutely incredible. They’re smart, they’re talented, and obviously they’re a threat to you.

For a man who’s dated so many successful women, it’s crazy how much you hate them. “Who are you and what do you do?” Except I’m not gonna ask that because I actually respect what you do. Maybe you should start doing the same.

Bye.

Haley recently went public with her new boyfriend and she also was just victorious in a lawsuit with her ex-husband.
