Pete Davidson might be headed to space and not just to get away from Kanye West.

The source said the idea came about when Davidson and girlfriend Kim Kardashian, joined Bezos for dinner at the Amazon founder’s Los Angeles home in January.

Plans for Davidson’s potential space flight are still in the works.

If the comedian does take flight, he will follow in the footsteps of celebrities like Michael Strahan and William Shatner who have taken part in a Blue Origin mission.

The suborbital flights reach what is widely considered the edge of space more than 62 miles above Earth.
