Starbucks puts out tip jars pitting Kanye West vs Pete Davidson, fans say 'Pete has this one'

Starbucks employees are taking a poll as to who will win in the Kanye vs Pete saga in a new viral TikTok video that features tip jars

Starbucks workers have come up with a clever way to test public sentiment by leaving out two tip jars named Kanye West and Pete Davidson inside one Starbucks location. In a viral TikTok video shared by user @shopjadelynnbrooke, two tip jars can be seen labeled “Kanye West” and “Pete Davidson” with the caption “Are you team Pete or team Ye?”. In the footage, a Starbucks barista is also seen explaining the whole beef between the two to the TikToker.
 
Kanye West’s social media spree off late has been targeted at his ex-wife Kim Kardashian and her relationship with ‘Saturday Night Live’ star Pete Davidson. However, it is unclear how much money the Starbucks barista has made but the tip battle has received over 1 million views on TikTok up till Saturday, February 19 and patrons and viewers are torn between which celebrity to support. “I think Pete got this one,” one viewer commented on the video, evidently referring to the larger number of bills in Pete’s jar. “Pete! Like there is even a question!” another viewer wrote.

The Kanye vs Pete saga has never failed to get fans' attention, while many social media users across platforms consider Ye’s behavior toxic and “not funny”, the rapper’s loyal fans have also been just as vocal and stood by him amid the ongoing series of controversies. “Since what kanye is doing is abusive and not funny, I’d say Pete,” one user commented on the video. Another user countered saying, “Kanye. Nothing wrong with a man fighting for his family. He’s not a perfect man but everyone has their own demons. His are visible while other [hidden]”. Someone else wrote, “Pete all the way. Kanye needs some serious help… praying for him and his family.”
 
“It’s scary the amount of people who don’t see anything wrong with what Kanye is doing simply because they’re his fans.” another viewer added.  While other TikTok users were mainly concerned about Kardashian and Ye’s children amid their messy divorce proceedings.

People have been posting about it on Twitter as well. One user shared: "The Starbucks by my house had two tips jars “Kanye West” and “Pete Davidson” Not just was Pete’s jar full but straight up $20 bills in the mix 🤣 Kanye had about $6 in it." Another wrote talking about it: "The Starbucks on Atlantic has a tip jar betting Pete v Kanye.....kanye has more tips"

 
In a recent incident from Kanye vs Pete saga, DJ Akademiks claimed that the billionaire rapper has been spreading rumors that Pete has AIDS. Although people close to Kanye were denying the accusation, insiders close to the comedian are telling a different story. Sources close to Pete confirmed that “Kanye's been telling everybody within earshot" that Pete has AIDS, which resulted in several awkward phone calls between Pete and his mutual friends with Kanye who are disturbed and taken aback by Kanye’s childish behavior.
 
Kayne’s feelings about the ‘Saturday Night Live’ comedian are not a secret. A month ago a leaked clip from Kanye’s unreleased track made it quite clear what the rapper feels about his ex-wife’s current love interest. At the end of his verse on the leaked track, Ye is heard saying: “God saved me from that crash/ Just so I can beat Pete Davidson’s a**”.
