The Saturday Night Live star had earlier unveiled new material referencing his hectic personal life and relationship with Kim, including his feud with her ex Kanye West, 44, according to ET.
The comedian also compared West’s social media attacks to the slap Chris Rock received from Will Smith at the Academy Awards in March.
During the first night of the comedy festival, which had sold out the Hollywood Bowl, Pete opened with material about how West had told him that he had AIDS.

He joked that he was convinced by Kanye because the rapper ‘is a genius.’
The comedian also noted how surreal it was to be humiliated by the hitmaker when he did have way to stop the online abuse.
Kanye’s social media tirades about him seemed to have traumatized Pete. He recalled seeing a basketball game in December of last year while seated between Jon Stewart and Chris Rock.

Pete referred to that relatively calm period as the ‘before time.’
‘Before life was over,’ he continued, adding that Chris faced his own public humiliation when Will Smith slapped him on stage at the Oscars after he referenced his wife Jada Pinkett Smith’s hair, which she shaves to hide bald spots from alopecia.
The King Of Staten Island star compared the incident to when a claymation stand-in for himself got its head cut off by a figure resembling West in the rapper’s music video for Eazy.

Unlike Kanye, who publicly disowned and insulted his former friend and collaborator Kid Cudi for being friends with Pete, the comic said he didn’t hold it against his friend Jack Harlow for working with West.
He added jokingly that his friendship with Bill Burr — the comedian who costarred with him in The King Of Staten Island — would be over if he ever attended one of Kanye’s Sunday Service ceremonies.
In addition to falsely claiming that Pete had AIDS, Kanye spread rumors that the comedian was gay and hooked on drugs, according to Page Six.

After a series of blistering posts insulting Pete earlier this year, Kanye largely went quiet on social media after he and Kim were declared legally single in March.
Sources told Page Six that the rapper told his ex that ‘he’s going away to get help.’
‘For the sake of the kids, Kanye has told Kim he’s not making any public appearances or inflammatory social media statements, and he will go away somewhere to get better,’ a source close to the Kardashians star said.
