usmagazine.com:

Hard pass. Michael Che didn’t exactly accept Kanye West‘s offer to double his Saturday Night Live salary if he stops working with Pete Davidson.The Chicago native, 44, took to Instagram on Sunday, February 13, to assure fans that he hadn’t been hacked, holding a dated sign that said as much.

In the caption, he called out Che, 38.“MY ACCOUNT IS NOT HACKED I WILL BE AT SUNDAY SERVICE AT NOON AND WILL ME TAKING NORTH AND SAINT TO THE SUPERBOWL SHORTLY AFTER,” he captioned the photos. “@chethinks I’LL DOUBLE WHATEVER THEY PAYING YOU JUST SO YOU DONT HAVE TO LOOK AT THAT PAWN EVER AGAIN BIG LOVE.”Several posts the Yeezy designer made throughout the weekend make it clear that he is referencing Davidson, 28.

The King of Staten Island star has been dating Kim Kardashian, who filed for divorce from West in February 2021 after nearly seven years of marriage, since the fall.Hours after his post tagging Che, the Weekend Update cohost responded with his own handwritten message.“Sorry Ye, but I would never betray my friends,” the New York native wrote on a lined pad similar to West’s, which he shared pictures of in a carousel post via Instagram on Sunday.The next page jokingly revealed he wouldn’t leave, “for anything less than TRIPLE salary.”Che quipped on the next page, “That’s right, $90k per year!”He continued to poke fun at the “Stronger” performer with his list of requirements: “Full medical.

Full dental. Four weeks vacay. Corner office. Plus, a pair of Red Octobers. Size 12. And you gotta make some beats for my band, The Slap Butts.”Additionally, the Michael Che: Shame the Devil star said that they have to dress identically. “And you gotta tell me what you’re gonna wear to work the night before so we can look like twins.
