JK Rowling has been into a lot of criticism after her comments. Now, Pete Davidson has lashed out J.K. Rowling. The 26-year-old King of Staten Island star replied to the Harry Potter author’s past transphobic comments during Weekend Update on Saturday Night Live on Saturday (October 10). He was seen mocking on the show, “I long for a few young years ago when the worst things she did were those Fantastic Beasts movies. No discrimination there, they harmed us all equally.” He defended his six Harry Potter tattoos, saying he “didn’t know that J.K. Rowling was going to go all Mel Gibson.”

He said, “I have a Game of Thrones tattoo and now I’m terrified [author] George R.R. Martin is going to be like, ‘Hey, if you enjoyed what I had to say about dragons and dire wolves, wait till you hear what I think about Puerto Ricans.’ It’s crazy times we live in! It’s not fair.” The star further added, “What’s wrong with her? She creates a seven-book fantasy series about all types of mythical creatures living in harmony with wizards and elves and the one thing she can’t wrap her head around is Laverne Cox? She’s a national treasure.”

In a series of public posts in June, including tweets and an essay on her website, the "Harry Potter" writer asserted her strong opinions on the trans community that conflated sex with gender and defended ideas suggesting that changing one's biological sex threatens her own gender identity and even her safety. Rowling hinted that by opening the doors to bathrooms and changing rooms to "any man who believes or feels he's a woman," the doors are open to all men who wish to come inside.
