“Well, I don’t really have Instagram — I don’t have Instagram or Twitter or any of that stuff. So, most of my daily life is getting into cars and showing up to a set,” the funny man told People.

“Or, if I’m off, I just either hang with my friends or chill with my girlfriend inside.

Despite dating one of the most famous women in the world, the comedian said he still feels he’s unaffected by fame.

“Once in a while, someone will scream something at you, or it might be hard to get Dunkin’ Donuts. But other than that, it’s pretty fine. It’s not awful. It could be way worse,” he added.

During the interview, the entertainer showed off his bedroom. People host Kay Adams noticed a Kim Kardashian candle in his room.

“Is that a Kardashian candle on your other shoulder?” she asked the comic.

The King of Staten Island actor said, “Yes, it is. That is exactly what that is.”

The couple were first romantically linked back in October last year after the TV personality guest hosted SNL — where the pair shared a kiss during a sketch.

Later that month, the duo were spotted holding hands on a ride at Knott’s Scary Farm in Southern California.

Page Six reported that Kardashian brought Davidson as her plus-one to her friend Simon Huck’s birthday party in November.

“They were smiling and laughing a lot and seemed genuinely affectionate with each other,” an insider said.
